We are very blessed . . …read more That our area of Southeastern Connecticut has such a large Puerto Rican population - - or we may have never tasted the wonderful food that this restaurant offers. One of the best, if not THE VERY BEST, restaurants in the local area. My only concerns: 1) I didn't see a bathroom, but I didn't need one ‍; 2) we could have used a knife for the pork stick, but we should have asked. The staff is extremely helpful. Wonderful designs, with lots of inspiration. Now for the food: - Chicken Steam Plate: Chicken leg, rice & beans, fried plantain pieces. Chicken super moist, rice was outstanding, & plantains were very tasty. - Beef Stew: very good, similar to Filipino Beef Mechado. - Pork Stick: great tasting pork - - for me, I would have liked a bit more "fatty" on my stick, but it was really meaty!!! - Beans were nicely done. - Smashed Plantains were served with 1000 Island dressing: probably just as good without the dressing. - Ground Beef Empanada: good, a bit of vegetables would have put it over the top (potatoes, onions, carrots, peas) - - but that's there style. - Chicken Empanada: ok, a bit salty for us. Enjoy!!!!!

The food is really good! The service is quick. It's a sit down spot but the food is already made,…read morehot, ready to eat. There's ample seating inside. The only thing is that this spot is a bit pricer than other Hispanic restaurants. Therefore I don't make it in often. But when I do come, I'm never disappointed.

I returned back to puerto Lima today and tried something new. I got the lomo saltado and it…read moreexceeded my expectations. The portion size was impressive, I have a big take home container to eat for dinner tonight. The steak was cooked perfectly and the sweet onions were awesome to pair with bites of steak and fries. The stir fried portion was seasoned to absolute perfection and the rice soaked up the juices from the stir fry which made it so good. The service here is lovely, the owner consistently shows his face and checks in on customers. A lovely spot well worth a visit.

Wow! the food is EXCELLENT!!!…read more talk about having flashbacks to my youth, when I would get Da BEST Cubano sandwiches in my old neighborhood. Done. To. Perfection. Con pernil with wonderful Boricua-Cubano-Quisqueya flavor, and the bread - classic french bread; crusty on the outside, warm fresh, airy and a little fluffy on the inside, with a touch of Mojito Criollo (of course!) on the outside as the sandwich is pressed for the final step. Delicious, al Dente, crunch and explosion of Sabor Antillano in every bite. Perfecto! BTW, I had ordered the Shrimp Po' Boy, also just perfect, what a delicious remoulade (which with the perfect bread, is what truly makes a Po' Boy stand out) - a perfect lunch. But I took a bite (alright, three bites) from the Cubano my wife-unit ordered, so I know what I'm talkin' about. I told the owner that, "... that was the best Cubano sandwich I've tasted in the last 15 years...". He and his wife (who is the magic in the kitchen putting together the delicious meals) are lovely people, true Foodies and easy to talk with. Like a True Foodie, they love to cook and through their preparations, bring food-happiness to their customers. I truly hope they get many more customers to try their food. I for one will be bringing my friends there (and I've got plenty of friends). I'd give them 6 stars, but can only do 5 here. This place is gonna get to know me really, really well! Ray
