I do not recommend, BUT
My review is based on visit to this rest. a few years ago. I was dissapointed, although the menu carries typical dishes. Although I can't say it is authentic typical Puerto Rican style home cooking. We ordered mofongo with grilled chicken and chicken fricase/stew with white rice, that's what we got nothing more!... well a way tooo expensive dinner bill, totally not worth it.
Service=Poor: waited about 20 minutes for waiter to take our order, then it took an hour to deliver the food to our table
The waiter was unnatentive, seemed like didn't care about making us feel welcomed, pretentious, needless to say left us waiting, didn't check to see how our food was after dropping! it off on our table
Food Presentation: NONE, Lacks! this is terrible (I didn't expect this from this pretentious so called best food/restaurant)non appetizing, unless you are starving to death like we were
Portion: Were rationed, Small, very much so, the mofongo was so small, that I ended up giving my husband some of my (also small/rationed) food. We both left very hungry.
Taste: A) Mofongo, delicious, very good taste, perhaps the best we've had (but still too small of a portion for a dinner entree)Grilled chicken, tasteless
B)White Rice, blah, Chicken Fricase/Stew, good, but needed more down home Puerto Rican taste and vegetables in it were non existent ie. potatoes etc.
Ambience: Too Loud, noisy, nice decor, no views, table arrangement=cramped
Price: extremely expensive for what you get!
In sum, I was dissapointed that the entrees are not served in a typical Puerto Rican food fashion in my opinion: I'll explain: I'm Puerto Rican and a typical plate to me is RICE and BEANS, side of plantains, plus meat entree and perhaps salad. AND Bigger Portions, with lots of flavor from the spices/herbs used in sofrito(a "criollo/creole" sauce used in stews, and marinating the meats) AND when done with your platter you are satisfied with taste, warm service, and reasonable price and portion.
