I love supporting local Latin cuisine, and my stomach agrees. They are constantly busy, prices are reasonable. I usually go in once or twice a month for alcapurrias and other fried snacks, which most of the time is fresh, but there has been a few times they were a bit dry. And almost inedible, but when they are done right they sure are good!
This is the spot for Puerto Rican food seriously go try it believe me ??? I been eat in this place since I move to waterbury they got the best empanadas
Every time I go to La Borinqueña the food is always delicious. I don't go often since being boricua I prefer to cook my own puerto rican food at home for my husband & I but it's always a nice treat. I recommend giving it a try.
Best puerto rican food in waterbury. Ever. Enough said. Generous portions and prices are fair. Fresh food. Fresh appetizers. Respectful and kind. If you haven't had food from here yet what are you waiting for? Food is not salty the consistency here is spectacular always tastes the same fresh and tasty. Havent had a bad experience yet ive been coming here since it was referred by a friend for 2 years and I'll never go anywhere for puerto rican cocinar.
Staff is friendly. They make the best alcapurria !
Great food. I haven't visited this spot for a few years but its as good if not better than i remember.
The food is good and the service too but I bought one time 2 potato ball and 1 time alcapurrias have a good taste but no meet inside
I love the scents you are greeted with when you walk in the door here!!? This restaurant is great for Spanish comfort food. I find that the customer area and work space is always very clean and tidy. Every time I visit this place is busy but they keep customers moving. Parking on the street can be tricky at times with the busy intersection nearby. I usually get the stewed chicken or the pork over yellow rice with beans. This is the best place in Waterbury in my opinion.
Horrible service 3 individuals standing at the counter didn't acknowledge me and walked away stood there for 5 minutes before someone came back to the counter. Looks like new owners the old ones were always nice and heplful.
Good puerto Rican food.
