    Come hungry for this unexpected experience. Food is great and portions are huge! Stay away from the "sangria" tho, the frozen marg's rock.

    DRINKS. FOOD. FUN. You have to go in if that's plastered on the window. $5 select cocktails all day. Treat yourself and unwind.

    'birds' lmao. But besides the birds try the rice,red beans, chichiaron de pollo: F@$king banging. Now I'm not puerto rican, Cuban, Mexican, etc but this tropical Dominican food is delish.

    I love their Avocado Salad! So delish: it includes a whole avocado, pico de gallo, and huge tomatoes. It's also really cheap!

    Fine Cuban food for the neighborhood. Half chicken is dry compared to spots elsewhere in NYC

    It's not real Hispano-Caribbean food. Trust me I'm Puerto Rican and Cuban. Go one block north to Caridad for some banging Dominican food.

    Not great service but decent food and good margaritas. If you're vegetarian, ask them not to cook it in meat.
