We saw this little place and the parking lot was pretty full, which is usually a good indication. We ordered the meatloaf sandwich, and it was terrific. The portions are huge...I have yet to eat a meal there and not take home half of it. The prices are crazy-reasonable, but the best part about the awesome experience is Anna and her family. They are so pleasant, care about the patrons, and of course, are very involved in the delicious production of food. My absolute favorite meal so far has got to be the porkchops. Seasoned to perfection and so juicy...again so much food with two chops and a side. Very craveable! If you haven't been to Anna's Cookin', you are missing out on a great experience.

This little slice of heaven is located in an old bank giving it a fortress feel outside. Inside you find a cute space decorated by the very proud Puerto Rican owners. I ordered at the counter from an I-pad like device than sat with eager anticipation. The smells coming from the kitchen made my mouth water something fierce. When my food arrived I was like a Mad Dog as I tore into my meals ( yes plural, don't judge ) I began by dumping my garlic sauce all over my Mofongo. Next I poured my shrimp over my rice and peas and now I was ready to eat. The garlic completely complimented the plantain mash and when I paired that with some of my shrimp from my other dinner it was a match made in heaven. The shrimp were not only cooked perfectly but they were huge and I generously got about 10 to my order. The rice and peas were perfectly flavored on their own but were made better with the addition of the shrimp & peppers along with their magical Criolla sauce . I also tried both the guava pastries as well as the Quesitos and both were fire . Overall the prices are really good for the quantity and quality of their food, service was quick and my only wish is they were closer to my house, but they are definitely worth the 35 mile trip

I've been wanting to try Puerto Rican cuisine for a while now, and there aren't too many options in…read morePittsburgh. When I saw Flavor of Puerto Rico was offering a $6 discount on an online ordering app, I was definitely interested. Tonight, I ordered the baked chicken sandwich, sweet plantains (maduros), a beef and cheese empanada, as well as a slice of tres leches. It was a lovely meal at a great price. The sandwich was simple, but very good. Their chicken is roasted perfectly, and incredibly tender. They give you a pretty good portion for the price, too. Pan de agua, or water bread, is homemade and soaks up the chicken juices. It's great! There's also a bit of cheese in this sandwich, which was a nice touch. This was my first time trying maduros, so I wasn't too sure what to expect other than a sweet flavor. These were definitely sweet, and they are generous with their side portions. Maduros are caramelized on the outside and quite soft on the inside. I'm not the biggest fan of maduros now that I know their flavor, but these were clearly expertly made and still worth trying. The empanadas (or pastellitos) are an absolute must try when you visit this place. I got the beef and cheese, which was sooo good! The ground beef is juicy and flavorful, while the crust is light and crunchy. I didn't find any cheese in this empanada, though. I was a fan of their tres leches. It was very well soaked and creamy. It's topped with a nice coating and a dusting of cinnamon (the cinnamon flavor is not very prominent). The dessert is not too heavy, either. I do wish the portion was a little bigger. All in all, this is a hidden gem in Mount Oliver. There are only a few Puerto Rican places in Pittsburgh, and this surely excellent food which seems quite authentic! Now they have a more consistent menu, too, instead of just daily specials. Definitely worth a try for anyone who's curious about Puerto Rican cuisine.

The menu listed bowls, salads, empanadas, burritos, arepas, signature dishes (e.g., beef, chicken, and seafoods), sides (e.g., yuca fries and black beans), desserts, alcoholic beverages, and juices. Most menu items were gluten-free. Many menu items contained meats, but a good number were vegetarian. I purchased empanadas in the chicken and vegetarian flavors. A server promptly brought them out to me. The fried dough was crispy. The chicken empanada was also filled with potatoes, tomatoes, and onions. The vegetarian empanada was filled with spinach, black beans, and white rice. They tasted pretty good. Each one cost about $3.

RR is just what this area needed! I've been here a few times now, and I love it. When I confessed to the staff that I'm not fond of spicy food, they insisted that Puerto Rican, while flavorful, is not spicy unless you ask for a spicy sauce. They were absolutely right on that description. So far, I've had Monfongo (w/ shrimp), ground beef & cheese Pastalillo, loaded Relleno, and Maduros. Everything was delicious, but special shout-out to the Pastelillo, which was EXCELLENT. It's flaky fried dough, stuffed with your choice of protein. In my humble opintion, this is the best item on a menu filled with great food. Also...just added to the menu are Tres Leches cake, and Chocolate Tres Leches cake. The chocolate was great. I love that it was sweet, but not *too* sweet. I'll be ordering food here a lot.

Lots of locals and lunch crowd. Staff knew people by name when they came in. Everything was made by them. The pulled pork bowl was my favorite. The fried plantains in the bowl were awesome. If there is one thing I would change it is the dinning room. It is clean and spacious but very utilitarian. For all the ethnic charm of the staff and vibrant flavors the dinning room is spartan. Highly recommend you try this place - I drove out of my way to get here and it was worth it.
