“ This place is a humble Puerto Rican-Chinese restaurant. Yes, it is a whole new cuisine fusion. It is absolutely wonderful. I always come to this specific location, it might be rough looking but the people are real nice. This whole area is like super gentrified, so what you’ll see it’s that authentic Chinese-Puerto Rican experience we all Puerto Ricans grew up with. I recommend their BBQ (boneless) with rice combination. Add their “tostones al ajillo” on the side. You’ll thank me later. Highly recommend. ”
“ My first time eating Chinese food in PR and it was delicious. We found parking at the back but was a little tight. You order at the counter and then grab a seat. Plenty of seating. Fried chicken, rice and fries with an egg roll. Served in styrofoam, nothing fancy but the flavors were so good! ”
“ Food was nice and hot, good flavor 2 people with egg rolls and 2 drinks $31 ”
“ I have to get Chinese food when I come to PR! Never tried it in this part of the island so I was excited to try this place, close to where I was staying. The food tasted fresh, was moderately priced, and made to order. It was very good flavorwise but a little too oily for my liking but great flavor, none the less. Staff was very nice and the establishment was clean and spacious. ”
“ Good service, place is clean, there is space between tables, service goes out fast and it's not expensive ”
