This is the best Puerto Rican restaurant in Northern Virginia by a mile. The food was authentic and it felt like I was eating in Puerto Rico. The staff was friendly, kind and welcoming to me and my family. The exteriors are nice. The pernil was delicious, the arroz con gandules was exceptional and the quesitos con guayaba simply amazing. Overall outstanding experience, I highly recommend it, we will be back.

What a great find. Thank you Yelp friends. We tried the Pernil, yellow rice, pink beans, yucca fries and sweet plantains. Delicious. Large portions so we had leftovers. Would have loved to try the garlic chicken but they were out. Next time! Only open Sat and Sun but would highly recommend this gem if you are in the area. Plenty of nearby street parking and close to down town Manassas.

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!!

I've been hearing about this place for sometime now, and finally got to check it out. They are only open on Saturday and Sunday. They are set up in a small trailer with a window to order from. There's a few small tables in the parking lot to sit at, so mostly a takeout place. Ordered the roasted pork that came with two sides. I got the rice with ham and pigeon peas and yucca fries for $17.99. It's a generous portion so you can definitely split it with someone. The pork is delicious, tender and flavorful. The rice was tasty and the Yucca were cooked perfectly. I also got a homemade guava juice on the side which was very refreshing. I am looking forward to going back and trying other things on the menu. I wish they would add may be a Friday to allow for more opportunity to visit.
