The chef is a one person show, she is attentive and very friendly. Having a gluten intolerance, this place was great. Many of the items on the menu were gluten-free. The table had a mini Cuban sandwich, which was mustard forward and very delicious. We also had the gluten-free chicken and beef empanadas. Both the chicken and beef were well seasoned and tasted great. The outside dough stayed crisp while the inside kept its soft texture. The fried plantains had a nice caramelization which gave it a mild sweetness. We were only looking for a small bit and this place definitely hit the spot!

There were a ton of fries and salad. The shrimp portion was small. $25. it was tasty. They don't have liquor but they have some wine based cocktails - i had a pina on the rocks $10 and it was delicious. We shared a cake for her bday and the little tent outside made cortados for us. They have some outdoor bathroom facility, which ran out of paper towels, but they also have indoor bathroom with some funny artwork. The menu is extensive. Many people at the table said it was the best mofongo they have ever had. We shared the tostones appetizers - with beef and shrimp on them. Buckets of beer kept appearing at the table. The kids ate chicken nuggets and fries or rice and beans, All in all, a good time was had! Parking is in their private lot, which is landscaping rock. I would not recommend heels. Be comfortable. Outside is not screened in - but they had bug spray for us and fans to keep the bugs minimized. I would eat here again.

Excited to have a Puerto Rican restaurant in the area, so my expectations were high when we went to…read morethe soft launch of their dinner service. They place is a former home of a family member they have converted into this restaurant, which has great outdoor seating - perfect for parties. The best part of our evening was watching the plena band play. Felt like we were at a house party on the island. Some room for improvement can be made in the service. It was very slow and much of the hospitality care was inexperienced. I have a seed allergy, so most of the time I can catch them in the ingredient list or knowing a certain dish may have them, I ask. Last night, I ordered the house sangria, knowing the typically have fruit that don't contain small seeds. This one came with raspberries that I didn't see until I was sucking it down. It was delicious but when the seeds started to float around in my drink, I flagged our server to get it strained or remade. It took a very long time to get it remade and when it came back, it was just red wine on ice, which tasted terrible. It was not until we were well into our dinner that I got a replacement glass of another wine after trying to flag her down again. Speaking of dinner, our foods came out at different times, which can be frustrating for diners wanting to enjoy a meal together, along with the fact that there was no silverware for us to eat with. I felt it a night of constantly trying to get our server to get something that should have been taken care of the moment we sat down. The food was good. It had elements of familiar flavors of the Carribean yet certain dishes were inconsistent in both the presentation and quality. The mofongo was a great hearty dish with pops of lovely flavor. Yummy! The Croquettes were not my favorite. They came out too hot (could have been warned) and were barely filled with creamy insides, I think the béchamel base melted out of the croquettes. All I could taste was the breaded outside. No bueno. While it's great to see a new business start to take shape in our community, I do hope the owners and staff take the time to refine their methods to bring the wonderful cuisine of Puerto Rico to New Smyrna Beach.
