    This is a good place for Hispanic Food as this Puerto Rican restaurant offers an ample variety of traditional dishes which satisfied local residents who enjoy Caribbean/Hispanic food. The atmosphere it's great, it can be a bit loud for someone who doesn't enjoy music while eating lol.. I don't mind. The best thing they had which I tried is the "arroz mamposteao" delicious! Our server was friendly and helpful.

    Saw this place the other day, figured we would give it a try. Admittedly, I thought it was a Mexican place. Turns out it's Puerto Rican, and I'd be shocked if somebody's abuela didn't personally spend all day prepping this meal. Place was clean, server was nice (and patient- my kids were nuts tonight), and food was perfect. The kids French fries were delicious also! I will definitely go back, or get it delivered.

    Churrasco con mofongo

    The food was amazing!! Un sabor riquísimo y buena porción! El servicio fue fantástico la muchacha que nos atendió fue muy amable y atenta a nosotros. El ambiente y decoración muy sencillo, bonito y creativo me encanto!!! somos por supuesto puertorriqueños y como decimos nosotros en verdad en verdad brutal y vamos a revolver!!!

    Tostones relleno de marisco!

    First time here I had the seafood filled tostones. Amazing! Will definitely have to try other items next time.

    Platito de arroz, habichuelas, ensalada y churrasco...

They had some hot food on a buffet display but I went during breakfast time so it wasn't all out yet. I ordered breakfast to go, including a sampler combo, which was more than enough food. The bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich was just okay, but the café con leche was classic and enjoyable. The service for to-go orders was quite slow, with multiple individuals and groups waiting for their food. The restaurant itself is very spacious, with plenty of booths and seating available. The cashier was friendly and spoke enough English to take my order without any issues. One downside was the strong smell of Fabuloso or floor cleaner throughout the restaurant. If you're sensitive to chemical smells, dining inside may not be ideal. I didn't take pictures but it's worth a try for something different!!

    New place in winter haven , and is very good , specially staff is super attentive, friendly and…read morethey ready to get your order right away . The place is located in same business center from Lowe's and inside is very comfortable space with lots of seat space . The food is very good , they can do little improvements to the empanada de carne but still was good , have great selection of bakery treats and some traditional Puerto Rican food , so if you near , try them out

The shrimp bowl was good as well, but the chicken superseded it by far. My family of five (2 adults/3 kids - 2 teen/1 - 6 yr. old) we're all full off of only two bowls and a order of their awesome crazy topped fries. We did have to try and put a little more in us because of their dessert offering and it did not disappoint, fried cheesecake with a cinnamon caramel topping. The right thing to finish off our meal. No complaints from anyone even my little one. We will definitely put this on our monthly schedule to stop at a couple times to enjoy. They have a make your own bowl option that we will give a try on our next visit and their smashed plaintain (mashed potato comparison) also looked very appetizing. I will post another review to update after our next visit as it will have the foods mentioned above and maybe more!

Great people, very warm happy to serve, 1000% satisfied. Must try the Mofongo Bowl!! The location was also pretty neat too it's definitely worth the trip. In the shade and away from the rain.

Mind you it was about 80 degrees outside :/ We decided to sit right next to these not even realizing what it was and ate for about an hour. As we were leaving I noticed WHAT it was & am absolutely disgusted We live in Florida , one of the hottest states in America & it was out for a very long time I hope they threw all this food away It's absolutely contaminated as it definitely could possibly give food Bourne illnesses to not only people but especially pregnant people I've been experiencing terrible stomach pains, throwing up almost anything and everything I ate along with this food Also we called and told the Ownerr about it and he came outside & touched it & went back inside to his rush hour line he most likely had & said on the phone "it was just delivered" Which no it was not , it was literally defrosting in the heat & I physically touched the food to check how warm it could've been as well as it was directly under the hot sun So HOPEFULLY he took it inside & made the right decision to just throw it back out and call it a loss but when I touched it , it was basically warm to touch and it was a bunch of frozen stuff... yuck
