    Outstanding food. Every bite was delicious. Definitely really popular lunch restaurant and filled…read morewith both locals and tourists. We arrived at 11am on a Monday because that's when we thought they opened. They actually opened at 11:30am, so we were 2nd in line at 11am. Once 11:30am rolled around, the line was very long. It's an old house that was transformed into a restaurant. It's pretty big in there and they have an upstairs as well. It really feels like you're eating in a Caribbean home, from the colorful tablecloth to the things on the tables. The menu is on a board, and they have a Spanish and English version. They give you a cup of complimentary plantain soup which was amazing. We also ordered the fried cheese app which came with a delicious guava sauce. For mains, I had the fried pork with tostones and my husband had the mamposteado (corned beef, fried eggs, and rice). My husband cleaned his plate, while I took leftovers back to the hotel (which we actually ate later because it was that good). They were out of tres leches that day, so we had the coconut pudding for dessert. It was my first time trying coconut pudding and it did not disappoint! For drinks, we had the passionfruit sangria. When we left, there was a very long line outside. Despite the line, they did not rush us out. Definitely recommend and would go out of my way to come back next time I'm in PR.

    Keepin' it a buck! Eating here is like eating the ultimate home-cooked Puerto Rican meal…read more Rating places in Puerto Rico is tough. There are so many spots that are authentic and incredible, but La Casita Blanca stands out in its own lane. It's gotten more popular and touristy over the years, but that's because they've stayed true to who they are. The authenticity here hasn't changed, and that's exactly why people keep coming. This is the kind of place where the menu brings you right back to your upbringing. You'll find dishes like corned beef, tostones con bacalao, and other classics that just hit differently. And the vibe? It feels like family. Someone who looks like your aunt might be cooking your food, your cousin might be serving it, and everyone treats you like you belong there. Food-wise, everything we had was fire. One of the people I was with is basically an "aguacateologist," and even he said it was one of the best he's ever had. That alone says a lot. Chuletas fried to a perfect golden crisp. The pollo fricasé (pollo guisado, if you know, you know) was on point and even came in a little pot that made it feel extra homey. Arroz con gandules? Off the hook!!!! And to top it all off, they had salsa playing in the background... which honestly had me sold the moment I walked in. Disclaimer/Warning; There will be a line!!! And if you're lucky enough to get a table, sit back and enjoy every second of it.

    i've never waited this long for food while being completely ignored by a server. we waited over an…read morehour and the only time our table was acknowledged was when our bread was brought out. meanwhile, we watched larger parties get served before us and even saw people who arrived after us finish their meals. after waiting an hour and 45 minutes, we finally gave up and asked to pay for what little we had -- bottled water, soda, and bread. i understand places can be short staffed, but that should be communicated upfront so customers can decide if they want to stay. as soon as we were paying for what little we got, our food suddenly came out, and it felt like they just expected us to accept it and be happy after all that waiting. when we brought everything up, there was no real effort to make it right, which made the whole experience even more frustrating. overall, it just felt like our time was completely wasted. nunca había esperado tanto por comida mientras el mesero nos ignoraba. esperamos más de una hora y la única vez que se acercaron a nuestra mesa fue para traer el pan. mientras tanto, vimos cómo atendían a mesas más grandes antes que a nosotros e incluso vimos a personas que llegaron después terminar sus comidas. después de esperar una hora y 45 minutos, decidimos rendirnos y pedir la cuenta por lo poco que habíamos recibido: agua embotellada, refresco y pan. entiendo que pueden estar cortos de personal, pero eso debería comunicarse desde el principio para que los clientes decidan si quieren quedarse. justo cuando estábamos pagando por lo poco que recibimos, salió nuestra comida, y parecía que simplemente esperaban que la aceptáramos y estuviéramos contentos después de tanta espera. cuando expresamos nuestra molestia, no hubo ningún esfuerzo real por solucionar la situación, lo que hizo la experiencia aún más frustrante. en general, sentimos que nuestro tiempo fue completamente desperdiciado.
