DO NOT GO HERE. RACIST SERVICE WORKERS. My boyfriend (29/asian/male) and I (26/white/female) used to be regulars here. We put up... with the long lines, the bad attitudes, and even the sometimes unsanitary conditions (they once haphazardly placed a platter ofraw chicken right next to a dirty mop and dirty water bucket, I guess due to their limited space) because we enjoyed the foodand it’s in our neighborhood. One of the ladies has made passive aggressive comments before and there’s always a lot of eyerolling. Whatever. We put up with it.\n\nLast time we went, the lady serving food was on her phone and constantly distractedwhile taking our order. We had to repeat it several times. Finally she looks at my boyfriend and says “Just speak English!”He had been speaking English the entire time. Not that it matters but he is a native speaker without any accent. He asked her torepeat what she said and she refused, standing there with a horrible smile on her face, knowing what she had said.\n\nWe leftimmediately. We will never be back and will warn everyone we know about this horrible place. Read more

The food is good but the care of your food. My food was messy & wet. I could not eat it. They don\'t take the time to separate... your food. If i have gravy why would you let my food swim in it? Read more

I have walked pass this place several times and each time there was a line down the block. So Wednesday I decided to wait on... line and I am glad that I did. On Wednesday I tried the Salmon with Green Beans, Sautéed Broccoli and Platanos simplydelicious. Today, I went for the Fried Seabass with Macaroni and Cheese, Sautéed Broccoli and Platanos....once again,delicious. You will definitely get your money\'s worth and your tastebuds will not be disappointed. Just be prepared to wait inline for a good home cooked meal. Read more

Amazing amount of food! A wide variety of options.\nI would say one of the best quality and quantity to price ratio of the area.... A healthier version of a Chipotle, with homestyle cuisine.\n\nThe line can get long sometimes even tough they just recentlyopened, but the service is warming and makes the wait worth it!\n\nSuper recommended!

I made a wrong turn going to get lunch at work. Came across this gem. I looked in the window and it was everything I could ask... for. Home cooked feeling in a to go spot. Glad I stopped in. This will be on of my favorites now when going on lunch. The foodwas delicious and felt like I just sat down and had a fresh prepared dish. Rice with beans, some Madurai’s. As well as Polloguisado. I couldn’t ask for more. Except that it was only $12 and it felt like a portion your grandma would give you. Read more
