People are really nice! The food is LEGIT PUERTORICAN! The closest I have gotten to my mom’s cooking (may she rest in peace) as soon as they open the indoor seating location, I will be there like literally ALL THE TIME!Las donas puertorriqueñas estaban más buenas!!!!!!!!!Parking: Some parking, I could not say how bad it gets if the place gets busy. I got one, with absolutely No problem!Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp that would take you to the window no problems, but is the only way to go up and down. People are courteous and would look out for anyone!

As someone who was born and raised in NYC and lived for 10 years in Orlando, FL, the food at the Puerto Rico Cafe in Manassas, VA is an unexpected slice of home. A throwback to my youth and a way to embrace my culture and introduce others to the wonderful foods of Puerto Rico. And the service? Above and beyond. I am so grateful for the opportunity to enjoy the food and the ambience and the chance to expose others to Puerto Rican food.

I was disappointed, I came down from Alexandria for 1 hour and brought some guests from El Savador and the truth is that it doesn't serve anything after a car. The dishes don't compare to how they will be sold in PR. It's better to have the one in Woodbridge.

I have visited Puerto Rico Cafe a handful of times since I discovered them. They have amazing food from appetizers all the way to main dishes great portion sizes and their sazon!! Their owners customer service goes above and beyond!! If you’re ever in the Manassas area and they are open check them out you won’t be disappointed. Support your local businesses that bring a little bit of their culture into our world.

I only bought alcapurrias, empanadilla and cheese. They had good flavor, freshness, consistency, it was super well baked but you couldn't feel the cheese in the cheese. The alcapurrias were excellently cooked, good flavor and texture but for my taste they lacked meat. The meat empanadilla was excellent, a lot of meat and the meat was delicious ?. It is not a restaurant; you order at a window. There is no mofongo yet but I would blindly eat it if they made it because of how they cook and the cleanliness of the place. I would return. I loved. Thank you so much!Parking: The parking lot is after the store.

One of the few puerto rican restaurants in the area and it's actually good! It's more of a food truck style, and their menu varies so follow them on instagram, they are good about posting the most updated menu weekly. They are also usually only open on the weekends. The food is so good, I grew up eating Puerto Rican food so it's nice to have a place with this food. The staff is super friendly. I think they are a family owned business and they are all cooking it up in there even in the hot summer days. They are amazing! I love that sometimes they have other small businesses, usually puerto rican, also selling their things like desserts and art for example. Also even though it's a food truck type of place they do have places to sit outside if it's not raining which is nice! Go try it!!

If they were an open restaurant, they would have to make reservations. The amount of people looking for delicious Puertorican food would line up as they do for the takeout. Highly recommended!

I tried this place out for the first time yesterday, and wasnt sure if I'd return since it is more than 30 minutes from home... but I'll definitely be back, and next time I'm bringing friends!I bought one entrée, a couple of appetizers and some dessert. The portions are BIG! I shared the food with two friends, and we each had a full plate of food. Las tres nos haltamos! And ALL of the food was DELICIOUS!!!
