“ We have been here 2 times already this year. Sometimes you get tired of American diner food, fast food, Thai, and Indian so we like to mix it up and get Dominican/Puerto Rico food. This food is pure comfort food and great on a winter or rainy day. My husband is Puerto Rican and loves the meals here. We do carry out now because with the drinks and tips our family of 3 ends up paying 100. They charge for water bottles and juices are pricey at 5. When we do carry out, it's substantially less. We drive all the way out from Forest Hills/Linglestown area. The one tamale/pastelle was a little bit too salty for my taste, but I liked the fried potato balls with meat, which was very good. I got a big chicken soup with these two appetizers. Husband and son got rice with meat entrees. The food portions are also plentiful. They are not cheap with rice like in Thai or Chinese restaurants. The restaurant was clean. Parking lot can be tight so we had to park in street last time. We will go there tomorrow before the Super Bowl to pick up carry out. ”
“ Next time I'm in that area I'll definitely be going back! The food is amazing! ”
“ I am on a diet so sometimes being able to order out can be hard, but rice and beans made it easy for me. I ordered the grilled chicken with garlic and vegetables and let me tell you it was amazing. The food was so great the flavors were wonderful and I was pleased with the size it’s enough for me to have two meals. I will definitely order again! The photo is after I had already eaten a servicing and I mixed the food together. I am editing my review I have been back to rice and beans a few times now and tried their breakfast, and I can assure you that you won’t be disappointed with their food it’s amazing. ”
