Hands down some of the best puertorican food I've ever had outside of PR. Traveling thru the area and stopped in but didn't realize it was a 5 star experience. The rice, the beans...everything was cooked to perfection. I especially liked the service, even though it wasn't full because it was early. I could just tell they do everything on point. Oh and please have the tostones.

I came in expecting a cheap imitation or some kind of fusion concept. Thankfully, that wasn’t the case. The arroz con gandules instantly brought back memories of family gatherings. The pernil was incredibly tender, and the cuerito had the perfect crunch. The bistec encebollado reminded me of my Abuelita’s cooking. Even the side salad was fresh and well-balanced. Can’t praise it enough. The atmosphere added to the experience too. The music was enjoyable, and the photos on the wall gave the space an immersive vibe. Highly recommend.

I had the pollo mofongo with garlic sauce and really enjoyed it. It was flavorful and just the right portion size. The service was friendly and quick. An excellent spot for Puerto Rican food.

Atmosphere is nice & clean. Staff is kind. The food is fresh, perfect amount of flavor, and well portioned. They have two levels so perfect for family dinner, date night, food/drinks with friends, ect. Pricing is also very reasonable. Be mindful the food is fresh so waiting is to be expected. I will absolutely be back.

My boyfriend and I came here after years of looking for an authentic Bori restaurant near us. We were extremely happy with the food and the service. I highly recommend this place for a true Puerto Rican experience.

Puertorricans looking for good Puertorrican food in the area and this restaurant thankfully DID NOT disappoint. The atmosphere was inviting and nostalgic with decor, photos and music. The food was great. Lots of options, excellent ingredients and great taste. Really recommend trying thr Chuleta Kan Kan, the mofongo with shrimp and cheese sauce and the mamposteado. Definitely coming back and bringing lots of friends. Puerto Rico!!
