Food was pretty good. Nothing that knocked our socks off. I went looking for a specific menu item…read morebut they had removed it. First time for us at a Puerto Rican restaurant so we weren't sure what to expect. The location is a good part of town and the restaurant was nice and cozy. Little bit chill though. They for sure weren't running the heat much. Service was helpful and kind but getting our food was quite slow. They did apologize with the reasoning being only had 1 cook. I can appreciate that but when you're out for one of the busiest restaurant nights of the year, you should be expecting a busy night and be staffed appropriately.

We ordered empanadas and yuca fries. The new pizza empanada is quite tasty, and we're excited to try the buffalo chicken the next time we are back. We like the chicken followed by the beef the best of the regular flavors. We'll be back again for the sunny seating, kind staff, and delicious food.

Portion sizes of some of their appetizers are IMHO a bit small for the price. Service was both good at times and then rushed at others.

My favorite of the evening was the prawn cocktail--this isn't your typical tiny shrimp soaking in red sauce in a fluted ice cream Sunday glass. Noooooooo. Fat gorgeous and juicy prawns laid down on swirls of very delicious sauce, served with a little side of arugula. Not to be too under-prawned, I also ordered the prawn farro salad. This, too, was a lovely preparation. I didn't enjoy it as much as I found the dressing on the farro a bit sweet for my taste--but I can change it up to an aioli or mignonette or something other upon request which will be perfect. The wonderful Gillian invented two n/a mocktails for me: a watermelon, basil spritz that was delightfully refreshing and an n/a Piña Colada--as they were out of pineapple juice, she substituted orange juice which I actually liked even better! Wonderful break in my day.
