This was the first Caribbean restaurant I discovered here, I love them! Ladies are sweet, new decor is beautiful & try their tostones rellenos, arroz con guandules, carne guisada, empanadas & mofongo 😋
First time trying Puerto Rican food and it was very good! Highly recommend the beef stew with rice dish called "Carne Guisada". Good friendly service, clean tables and seats, and lovely traditional paintings and music. Would eat here again!
The food is always good! They have renovated since we were here last and it looks GREAT!
If you want real Puerto Rican Boricua food, Señor Big Ed is the place to go to in LA! Since I'm also Puerto Rican mixed race (Hawaii also has a history of Puerto Rican work migration), I wanted to try their Pasteles plate. I also got the arroz con gandules. Its super excellent food! They also not only have a Puerto Rican food menu board, they also have a Mexican food menu board. Their service is up to par and friendly too. They also gained a new regular because their food is consistent and is cooked with the love of food! The best Puerto Rican food in South CA!
Visiting LA for a conference and went to search for mofongos and was not disappointed. This is a great little shop with a nice large dining area accommodate multiple families and couples easily at same time. Kitchen is fast and service was excellent! We had the mofongo with chicken and one with beef as well. Excellent delicious and wonderfully seasoned, we also ordered the beans stew with pork bone. Took home a platter of tostones. Maduros were delicious and their Puerto Rican house rice is worth the trip alone. 10/10 would recommend and come back here again.
