From the moment I walked in, it felt friendly and welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious. It genuinely brought back childhood memories--the kind you don't realize you miss until something suddenly takes you back there. You can tell there's real heart, passion, and effort behind the food they make. It's more than just serving Puerto Rican food; there's a sense of love and pride behind it, and you can taste that in every bite. I feel incredibly lucky to have found a little piece of home away from home. Needless to say, I'll definitely be back... probably more often than I should

They had great…read moreveggie empanadas that were perfectly fried, crispy and crunchy on the outside, but tender and well cooked veggie medley inside (mushrooms, eggplant, onions, red peppers, zucchini, and yellow squash, all very finely diced and cooked in tomato sauce). It was one of the best vegetarian empanadas we've had. (Note: the pizza empanadas are vegetarian, too, and looked/smelled great.) We tried all the sauces with them and particularly loved the pique (peppery but not too hot) and the Mayo/ketchup blend (the mojo was good, too). I also got the Tripleta sandwich because I couldn't pass up the combo of skirt steak, roasted pork and ham. I'm also a sucker for any dish that incorporates chips, and the potato sticks on top here were too intriguing to pass up. This sandwich was huge and tasted and smelled great, full of well-seasoned and cooked meats and the crunch from the potato sticks. The bread held its own for awhile, but I definitely needed a fork to finish up (did I have one? No, but that didn't stop me because I'm not particularly classy.) Definitely worth checking this truck out!

The food is excellent, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the service is always top notch. It's rare to find a restaurant that delivers this level of consistency, but La Famosa does it every time. The best part is your favorites are always on the menu. If you have the chance, grab a seat at the bar and ask for Brandon. He's an outstanding bartender who is friendly and very attentive. One recommendation you absolutely should not skip is the pastelillos. They are incredible and have become a must order every time I visit. If you're in the Navy Yard area and looking for a restaurant that gets everything right, La Famosa is an easy five star choice.

I ordered off of their happy hour menu which was a bonus for a Sunday afternoon. I tried the beef empanadas and fried pork with tostones and also got a passion fruit margarita.

When those patrons left, while we were there, only one additional table was occupied. They aren't very busy even on a Saturday afternoon. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with a mural, colorful string lights, and decorative pillows. There is limited parking in front of the restaurant. They also have patio seating. Our server was wonderful - friendly, attentive and helpful answering questions and accommodating my friend with requests for her food. Although I love the ambience and service, I have mixed reviews on the food. The beef empanadas and flan were delicious, however, my smoked brisket mashed potatoes and potato wedges were just average. Although our server said that the brisket is popular and highly recommended, I thought it was chewy, hard, and the barbecue sauce wasn't anything memorable. It didn't really stand out and I have definitely had better brisket at Mission BBQ. My friend or mofongo, brussel sprouts, and Ropa Vieja. She she said of the three, the Mofongo was her favorite and really good. She also liked the brussels sprouts. Final thoughts: beautiful ambience, great service, but mixed reviews on the food.

The curry goat as well was incredibly good, very tender and a lot of meat. Rice and peas was the best side I tried. Some of the best food I have ever tasted, I am not exaggerating.

Menu was super straightforward and easy to understand, even for someone who has never eaten Jamaican food before. It's extremely clean and professional inside, very welcoming. And prices are very reasonable, especially considering the size of the portions. Would definitely suggest getting the oxtail with rice and peas and some sort of vegetable for the best all around eating experience. Jerk chicken patty is also a nice option if you're looking for something quicker. Please try this place. You will NOT be disappointed.

I then waited another 45 minutes for the food and was told it would take an additional seven minutes - -turned into 20mins for the beef patty. The restaurant clearly has high customer traffic, so I hope the food is good enough to justify the excessive wait. However, the lack of communication, urgency, and any attempt to compensate for the delay made the overall service experience extremely disappointing. Food satisfaction: Pending.
