Disappointed. Won't be back. Stopped by El Príncipe on…read moreLehigh around 10am and had a really frustrating experience. The food came out cold, and when I asked about it, it was just microwaved--not even properly reheated. I still ended up eating cold food, which made the whole meal pretty unappetizing. On top of that, the portions were super stingy. I ordered mangu with eggs, salami, and cheese--got one tiny slice of cheese. Seriously? Same thing with the pork--barely any on the plate. For the price, I expected a decent serving, but it felt like they were cutting corners on everything. The vibe from the person serving wasn't great either--just didn't feel welcome at all. Save your money and go somewhere that actually serves hot food and isn't so cheap with the portions. I won't be back

I would definitely come back here just for the tacos.

Which is cool but not what I expect from Izlas. Sitting at the bar & service is reasonable for drinks but for food not so much! The food tastes good when it arrives but takes a while. If you follow the restaurant on SM you'll catch the theme or event of the day. There's no weekly karaoke which can be fun. The crowd used to be packed, fun, and lively. My last few times have been light on attendance and slow on food service.

I have not been to Porky's Point in a minute, too far for me. That being said, my husband was down the way for some business and decided to stop and get some food. Mediocre at best.

The chicken was alright and the beans were fine but it felt like I was being charged regular prices for eh leftovers. I hope the staffer didn't feel hurried when I let him know the app accepts my clicks 20 min earlier as I was okay waiting until 730 instead of waiting 5 minutes to 710 pm. The menu of items online is elegant but this was like a buffet for what was received. I wish the pictures had captions because reading the menu in words isn't very enticing for me. The prices listed online are high but this might be because delivery is free (to certain areas.) and you might get a lot of food. I wish this was more apparent. I feel there is probably a hidden gem of food for this place but the neighborhood is questionable and the language barriers and lack of convenience quick reads of captions with pictures affect the accessibility of ordering for me. Definitely willing to give the regular menu items a chance but TooGoodToGo is not the way to Go here. I also took a chance on 2 orders and got the same exact thing. Sigh. Staff is friendly but you need to use a translator for Spanish? I am surprised this place isn't on Yelp already but the neighborhood might be too gritty for most people. A few blocks north is a reputable Latino Community Center. And then the neighborhood gets slightly better with more businesses on the main drag of Lehigh Ave ( I think. )

There were booths, tables and bar seating available with Wonder Years playing on a few TVs with warm lighting and the incandescent Christmas lights that are reminiscent of Grandma's house (bonus points for nostalgia!) I requested a booth and she promptly sat me. She brought me water, menus and explained the specials to me. As I perused the menu, I was overwhelmed with the options available to me. I ultimately landed on one of the dinner specials (Cabernet braised brisket with a side of carrots & buttery mashed potatoes), chips & salsa and a Paloma. Chips landed first and while both salsas were fresh, I still felt the need to add salt. (Everyone's palate is different) Food & drink arrived simultaneously. Paloma was made strong but tasted more like a classic margarita as opposed to the tang of grapefruit that comes with a Paloma. Still good! The food was essentially cold & looked like it had been sitting for awhile being served to me but all the flavors were there. The brisket fell apart, I didn't even need a knife to cut it. The carrots were tender and the mashed potatoes were buttery. I would 1000% go back for the drinks and service, however I may get something different on the menu.
