Excellent food, highly recommend! We had the plantain balls as appetizer, bistec encebollado and pernil asado.

The food was beautiful. I ordered the monfongo supremo with tostones and a side of arroz con gandules. I wasn't expecting this but when I began to eat my food I was transformed back to grandmas house an experience I've lived 1000 times and the food brought me to tears. How beautiful the love is in the food. This place has Boricua soul and the vibe is right. Parada 22 better be on your list if you love food and soul. This is my soul food

Tasty authentic mofongo and crispy tostones! Been looking for authentic Puerto Rican food and I got it here. Our server was nice and the outside seating atmosphere was cute!

If you’re feeling like some epic, no fuss, quality Puerto Rican food.. look no further☀️ High open ceilings and brick walls ❤️ Had the Bisteco Encebollado😋😋 Well seasoned steak, onions for days (good ones), rice and beans that were to die for and a salad with a tasty vinaigrette! Thank you for the warm service and lovely experience🙇🏻‍♂️

The food was delicious! We ordered the sampler and two sides (habichuelas blancas and arroz amarilo), great options to try some of several menu items. The server was very attentive and helpful.

First time in this little hidden puertorrican restaurant gem in San Francisco suburbs. Good customer service, friendly staff.and the food was amazing. We went there looking for good Hispanic lunch and we can’t be disappointed. The place was cleaned and restrooms as well. There is no parking, you’ll have to pay for it in a parking lot or on the street. Definitely well recommended.

Tostones were very good. The chicken and waffles was pretty average, they probably have other better dishes. The carne sandwich was good. Good service too

I was surprised by this restaurant. Food was pretty good despite the location. Ordered the bistec encebollado & the Puerto Rican sampler. Food did take about 30 minutes but understandably so. It was a lot of different combination of flavors. The salsa rosada was a perfect sauce for the protein. The rice was soft & seasoned well, plátanos were perfect, tostones were ok. The closest we’ll get to puertos rican food in San Francisco. I will be returning.

We had a sampler and sandwiches. The sampler was great. Everything on the plate was delicious and well prepared. To be honest the sandwiches were good but we wouldn’t have them again.

Cute cozy spot on Haight serving Puerto Rican food. Only one waitress working the whole restaurant tonight, and she was friendly and welcoming. I've ordered the mofongo before and it is yummy. Tonight I tried the chincharrones de pollo. The breading was too thick for my liking. The crust was crispy but kept eating chunks of breading. I wish there was regular chincharron on the menu also. Beans, rice, and tostones were satisfactory. The yuca fries and the sauce it came with was nice as well. We enjoyed the house hot sauce and put it on everything.

i came in after the haight street fair and i tell you this place smelled phenomenal. we sat down immediately and ordered shortly after. however, our food took almost an hour to cook. i ordered the special which imo lacked some flavor. the plantains ruled the dish (not a bad thing). i tried the things my friends ordered and they were so much better

Food was great, service took a while to be help while seating on a table about 30 to 40. Once they took our order food came out at a dessent time. It's definitely a great place to taste some Puerto Rican food. Just make sure to have patience for the wait. You won't be disappointed with the food.

This place is not bad but it did not meet my expectations. Im from the Caribbean and I was craving some rice and beans. The food wasn’t bad but it did not meet my expectations. The beans were a bit dry, the mofongo was good as well as the tostones, but the sweet plantains did not taste fresh. Lastly, the place is nicely decorated and the service was fast.

As a Puerto Rican and Bay Area foodie, I'm very disappointed about my experience at Parada 22 last night. I needed to wash my hands and asked the waiter for the bathroom. He directed me to walk through the kitchen where all the food was being prepped and there was a station in the back of the kitchen off to the side where I could wash my hands. As I walk through the floor was dripping wet and I had to walk very carefully to not slip. There were other customers who needed to use the bathroom who were also instructed by staff to walk through the kitchen. I noticed a couple called over the waiter and found an unknown object in their food and the man was understandable pretty disgusted about it. There was a back and forth with the man and waiter and ultimately had the waiter take the food away. Shortly after they asked for the check and the customer became increasingly upset at the waiter. The waiter walks away from the customers and the customer asks for the receipt and the waiter ignores him. The customers visibly upset walk out. We ask for the check. The waiter comes and my boyfriend pays him, and the waiter without saying a word walks away to attend the next customer. No thank you, nothing. We found this pretty disrespectful and poor customer service. Saying thank you is the bare minimum for customer service. I shared our dissatisfaction with the waiter and he became defensive claiming he did say thank you and gaslighted us. I've honestly never experienced such poor communication and terrible service. I truly wanted to give this place a chance but after this experience I don't see myself or my boyfriend going back and we will not be recommending it.

I dropped over 300 to get food catered. Unfortunately for me the don’t cater in the form of large pans it’s all individual meals. So it’s false advertising is not really catering. The in reality only offer sides in large style catering format. It was highly disappointing and will never order catering from the again. This place is a disgrace when it comes to portion sizes. I go one baby scoop of rice and a half a spoon full of beans. To tell you I was embarrassed and shocked to be serving these individual meals to my guest at my party is is an understatement. They should be ashamed of themselves serving this portion sizes in catering. No self respecting Boricua like myself or other would ever have the audacity to serve such meager rations to their guest. I was highly upset upon opening containers. A guest from my party stated those are not the portion sizes you get in person. It’s a shame because the food was good but when you barely gave me enough of rice and beans which is the most import components of a the cuisine it’s laughable
