Very good place to eat, the only thing is the portion sizes vary due to what containers they have and price stays the same..one time you get a larger container and the next is small

If you are looking for delicious and authentic Puerto Rican food , this is the place for you! I enjoyed everything I had. Make sure you are thoroughly hungry when you arrive, because the portions are plentiful. Staff members are very nice and accommodating too . I highly recommend Viejo San Juan restaurant in Troy, NY. !!

This is my first time ever having Puerto Rican food and it is amazing. I got a combination platter of rice (arroz con grandules I think), steak and peppers, and plantains. The rice is the most flavorful rice I've ever had. It has little crisp bits and the texture of it is incredible. The steak and peppers were admittedly a little cold but still had some pretty good flavor. The plantains felt hot and fresh and juicy. I also got a pincho and that is also just really, really good. Peak foodThe atmosphere inside the restaurant is also really nice. I can't speak on it much as I don't know what Puerto Rican culture is like but it felt very homely and I could just tell a lot of love and care went into decorating the place.

I am not Puerto Rican, and this was my first experience with Puerto Rican cuisine. Home cooked, you can tell the time that goes into making these dishes. The combination lunches and dinners are excellent and of course try the mofungo /burrifongo. If you have had Cuban/Mexican cuisine it is similar but it has its unique flavors and textures that are wonderful.

Authentic and delicious food. Friendly service and plenty of additional options. Smaller place but has room for couples. Outside seating in warmer weather.

It's like a quick trip to the island. You'll see hand crafted decor and hommage to places around the Island such as La Placita in Santurce and the surf board that reminds me of Domes Beach in Rincon. I got rice with gandules, fricasee of beef cubes with potatoes and yuca, it was fresh and
