Don't order here they charge alot and you don't get alot of food. We've ordered here for years and we got big pans of food. This year we ordered and we got half of what we normally get. When I spoke to the owner he admitted they used to give more food. Who gives HALF pattillos for 30 dollars and half a pan of rice for 60 dollars. I feel like i got robbed. The owner Didnt offer to make anything right and charged me full price for half the food. Don't get scammed. They should've atleast warned us.

Despite bad experience I continually order from them due to convince but at this point I’m tired. So through Uber eats, there’s a menu item “chicken empanada” BUT the item description is “tamale en Hoja”. These are two separate foods, and I swear they really just give you whatever one is on hand at the moment. Sometimes I get a Tamale, sometimes I get an empanada. I am BEGGING you to please update your Uber eat menu and separate them into the 2 items they are. Plantain with beef and cheese was burnt to a CRISP .

I was so excited when my food arrived yet to my surprise everything was awful 😝! 1. Rotisserie Chicken Yellow Rice was as tasteless and super dry? 2. The Beans are definitely not spanish. 3. White Rice and Beans? How do you mess up White Rice and Beans??

Honestly I guess my expectations got the better of me,I was so excited to try this place out but I was highly mistaken, for the high price and very small portions, and even customer service was far from welcoming I was treated as an inconvenience. If you feel like throwing out your dinner and money...then by all means but as for I...I will never return!

Why they tell you pick up your food at 4:00pm and get there at 4:15pm and the food it no ready?

Yeah, it was pretty busy when we went as well. I had to wait about 15-20 mins over the time they gave us. Ours was a phone order & I think they made orders via doordash, ubereats, etc... a priority. But food was delicious, so they were forgiven.

Do they deliver?

It's in the strip mall at Harbison and The Boulevard. There's H&Z laundry on the corner. Spanish Island is on the other side, near T-mobile.

Not very nice to their employees. That is why they always look miserable. Probably have low morale too.

I'm a frequent customer there and someone must have had an off day, which as humans we're allowed, because I've always seen them upbeat and laughing with each other.
