What visitors say
A well‑spotted gem near the beaches. The food was delicious, well‑seasoned, and honestly a great value for the price. When I visited it wasn’t crowded, so the atmosphere felt relaxed and easygoing. This is the kind of place I’d happily stop by anytime — flavorful dishes, good portions, and a chill vibe.
The food was incredible! The greatest chicharron we’ve had. It was juicy and fatty and delicious. The empanadas and buñuelos were some of the best we have EVER had. The wait for the food is long and worth it, but keep in mind that it is not a very comfortable wait. It is an outdoor kiosk so bring bug spray!
Delicious authentic Colombian antojitos!! Big portions too. Friendly and fast staff. Really nice atmosphere and awesome music
Small food stand with limited menu by one of the main roads near Arecibo PR. I stopped here for lunch on my 2nd day in Arecibo, before heading into town to wander about and explore. It was very reasonably priced: empanadas 3.50$ apiece and chorizo 5$. I had 3 empanadas, 2 carne, and1 pollo and Columbian style chorizo and 1 refresco manzanita to drink which cost me 24.50 total when I include the 5$ tip. The shell in Columbian empanadas is corn-based as opposed to wheat-based for Puerto Rican…
Great food and environment fast as possible service and the owners are the best kind people
