The decor takes you right to island vibes. The music, the small trinkets that remind you of Puerto Rico are all here. The aromas in the air will have you drawn in. Our trip we had the roasted pork, and cube steak. My roasted pork was very flavorful. The rice reminded me of my grandmother's rice. The beans are amazing to say the least. I want the recipe! Tostones were fresh and hot! Made to order. The sweet plantain was the same. This last trip was today. Sundays are super busy! It was nice to see all the tables full and watching the family move in unison to get the customers taken care of. I ordered my food to go so I sat at the bar and waited for my food. Jessica the owner greeted me and was super attentive. Even when the hustle and bustle started she still checked on me. Today we ordered the pork chop dinner with rice and sweet plantain. I had the pork chunks with rice and beans along with tostones. We also had an alcapurrias that was delicious and flavorful. If you're looking for a true Puerto Rican restaurant that gives you all the feels along with great food and hospitality.....This is it!

I have to say when you walk in the smell was off putting and I told my husband it smelled just like old grease and cleaning supplies. Didn't want to just walk out so we ordered- service was nonexistent the lady at the counter took our order but nothing more nothing less. I ordered the quesabirria quesadilla and my husband ordered something. We asked to get some salsa as well. The food took awhile but finally it was our turn and we grabbed our food and left. Now I will say sitting with the food the boxes felt light. When we got home I was shocked at the lack of food, no salsa and these two meals were $30! Which is insane for the amount you get. I got two slices of quesadilla both as little as my hand. I was hoping flavor would make up for the baby portions but it did not. The consume just tasted like oil and the birria itself had no flavor though it was tender, my husbands asada too had no flavor. Money wasted for sure. This was probably by far the worst meal I've had in Columbia over the last year of living here.

The portions are good and filling. I can't wait to go back. This place has been on my radar for years, and I'm mad it took me so long to get to this delicious food.
