The Mofongo is good with those crunchy bites of chicharrone. Shrimp cooked right. Chicken pieces were really good. The Moro is not much different from dirty rice, per my dining companion. My Sangria was okay but I probably wouldn't order it again. Made me think more like a juice than a wine cocktail.

Every bite felt like a trip back home. What makes it even more special is the atmosphere. The Puerto Rican flags, the music playing softly in the background, and the warm hospitality create a beautiful celebration of our culture without feeling overdone. It's the kind of place that reminds you where you come from and makes you feel connected to your roots. If you're looking for authentic Puerto Rican food in Phoenix, this is it. Whether you're Puerto Rican yourself or trying the cuisine for the first time, this restaurant delivers an experience that is heartfelt, genuine, and absolutely delicious. I can't wait to come back.

i ended up doordashing from this restaurant last december, and i've never been happier with a…read moredecision in my life! given that this my first run with puerto rican food, i was excited as hell. i ordered the pernil (roasted shredded pork) with arroz con gandules (rice with pigeon peas), and i got fried plantains with a beef and cheese empanada on the side. ordering a side of salad is optional via doordash, but trust me, you'll need something to cut through the richness of the rest of the food. overall, the food was pretty damn amazing and i was more than satisfied with my order. can't say much about the service since i haven't been to the physical location, but the person who dashed me my order was more than stellar. as for the ambiance, that's to be determined; however, i'd imagine it's as great as the food.

I must have had a brain fart or something because right after I walked in, the worker greeted us and immediately told us they had empanadas. He said they had chicken, beef, and cheese empanadas. I immediately ordered three chicken and three beef. I forgot about the arepas. The guy said it would be ten minutes. So we browsed their store. As soon as you walk in to the business, the small place looked like it is set up to ship packages. It has a small grocery store in the back, and has a kitchen on the side. The whole store was small, but clean. There was no seating in this place as it is not a sit down restaurant. Food orders are placed to go. Almost ten minutes exactly our empanadas came out. We took them to our car and ate there. We wanted to eat them fresh and hot and boy were they steaming hot. I loved the crispness of the shells. The filling was very flavorful and moist. I dipped them in the salsa and they had had a nice kick. They were delicious!We were able to polish off four. After we arrived home some thirty minutes later, the empanadas were still warm and surprisingly still crispy! I ate the last two. I will definitely return to try their arepas!

Very fresh and good food! We went with the chicharrones de pollo and patelitos. Loved the…read morechicharrones de pollo; not too greasy, good acidity, and good crunch while still being juicy. Tostones were also very good, although I think the ratio of chicken to tostones was off. The pastelitos were also good but barely filled, which is why I subtracted a star. If they had more filling, easily 5 stars. I also think the chicharron plates could use a fresh element to cut down the all fried part. Service was timely and the (i presume) owner was nice both times we called. Pickup was also very easy from the window. Overall, I would definitely come back!

I got three orders of chicharrón that came with Tostones. Each order was $20. I ordered it through DoorDash to be delivered. I should've taken pictures but forgot but what I got was a joke. In the order was three pieces of Chicharron and the Tostones. The Chicharron barely had any meat and it wasn't that tender. Very very disappointed and honestly a little upset for the price I paid. I definitely will not be coming back.

BFF is Puerto Rican and we've been to Phoenix Coqui before but not this establishment. Upon…read morearrival, our server was waiting at the door for us to enter. The restaurant is a very good size with lots of room and tables available. The decor is that of PR culture which is very colorful and bright. We started off with canoa which is a plantain stuffed with ground beef and cheese. It was very hot and delicious! For our "platos principals" (main entrees) I had the pechuga de pollo (chicken breast with grilled onions) with mofongo as my side (also comes with a side salad). It was very tasty and not dry at all. BFF had the pernil (pulled pork) with arroz con gandules (rice with pigeon peas) as his side which also came with a side salad. For dessert we shared the tembleque which is a coconut pudding but not in the traditional sense of pudding (more like a jelly texture). BFF also ordered coquito (holiday rum drink) & apparently our server (Sophia) omitted the rum so the owner came by and offered a fresh glass. Speaking of, everything was wonderful except that Sophia seemed to have a bit of a poor attitude as she wasn't too friendly. I'd like to give her the benefit of the doubt as perhaps she wasn't feeling well but out of the corner of my eye she had this almost "eyeroll" look. Perhaps she just didn't want to be there (she was friendly upon us leaving and thanked us). Anyway, I highly recommend this establishment. Both food and ambience was great and the service was too.

We tried a few empanadas and the mushroom, spinach and artichoke; potato; elote; and guava with cheese were all good. They had the right amount of filling to crust ratio. The sopa verde (flavorful and had depth) and arroz Colombiano (lots of ingredients that all worked together) were also great. It was quiet on a weekday afternoon. Everyone was very friendly when answering questions and taking our orders. The space is casual and there's a small parking lot. Would be happy to return for takeout or dine in!

It's in a relatively abandoned strip mall and If you drive too fast you could miss it, I'm not sure you can even see it from the street, you kind of have to know it's there and MAN do people know!!!' By the time we left it was hopping! Lots of regulars you could tell. Staff was very nice, restroom clean and well stocked. Ambiance? Cute island minimalism! FOOD Had to start with the empanadas which were soo good and great flavor in the meat, I LOVE Cuban sandwiches but have failed to find a halfway decent one in Arizona. When we were in Miami and Key West I ate my weight in Cuban sandwiches so that's my gold standard! This one is just as good if not better! Advised it was big but we each ordered one anyway and big is an understatement they were huge! Roasted pork delicious and juicy, ham and Swiss. Just the right about of mustard not to overpower it and the right amount of pickles to also enhance but not overpower the flavor. The Cuban bread DELICIOUS! For 12 dollars it was two meals and a small snack for me. I'd say that's a heck of a deal ! We are already planning a trip out west to go back !
