It was not bad in all. Not the best Spanish food but still really good. Good places are hard to find.

I was torn between giving 3 or giving 4 stars, to this place. It's important, that I explain. I've been going to this restaurant, since it opened. When it first opened, up until, the new employee (the female), who are operating it now, this place, was always packed with people, phone ringing off the hook, with orders. The service, was always great and the employees, were welcoming and friendly. It was a 5 ⭐'s. Fast forward, to when I last went there, a few weeks ago. I went in, with a friend and he ordered. The female there, was totally ignoring him. I figured that she didn't hear him but after a while, I realized that, yes, she purposely, ignored me. My friend turns around, looks at me and tells me, "she doesn't like me". I tell him, "this is no way, to run a business. Why would she be playing, with the owners business (her pay as well) just because, she doesn't like someone. I told my friend, "we're leaving, If she doesn't like you, then she doesn't like me" and it was obvious because, she saw that I was with him and she wouldn't even look at us or acknowledge that we were there, along with her face, displaying an attitude. The male on the other hand, welcomed us and smiled, genuinely. The reason my friend went to the female, is because the male was very busy. I have been around that neighborhood for 50 years and I have never, encountered a person, with such a nasty attitude. I don't get, why some people, get jobs, where, they have to interact with people but they're not a people person or have any manners or respect, with people, who are essentially, paying their wage. SMH. Other than that, the male is a respectable gentleman and the food is delicious.

Nice neighborhood place. No alcohol but nice Central American fare. They have platters that are good bang for your money and the offer a green salad as a side. You can choose the rice and beans too. The salmon was good quality but overcooked, make sure you ask for a medium rare if that's what you like. Pork ribs are excellent and the liver with onions is cooked upon request. There are also hot dishes to choose from from the food bar. Price is reasonable. Quality is good. Service is very good.

You can’t go wrong with their chicken, rice, beans, and plátanos. All were flavorful and delicious! We ordered a few other items that seemed to lack flavor or tasted dry / over cooked. I cut the restaurant some slack given we ordered to go and traveled far with the food.

I went to get chicharrones since candelas is apparently closed. I gave 2 stars because they did have plenty of it and gave a lot for almost 14 dollars. I tried to eat a few pieces but it lacked flavor and texture. It did have a funny taste to it.

the food was really bad, and here was the worst food i’ve tasted. el arroz con gandules was really bad, really hard rice and flavorless. the habichuelas were bad, tasted ok but texture was off. i had a black coffee, and it had non dissolved coffee powder. my son got a coke, and the can was really dirt on the bottom and on top, also the sides were sticky and really nasty. THE FOOD IS TRASH!

I did a take-out order, everything tasted old and dried out. It wasn't good at all. It wasn't cooked well or fresh, whoever packed that order for me did not care about freshness or quality. They just wanted to ship any kind of meal and get paid.

Omg horrible horrible horrible the Cuban sandwich disgusting only some dry pernil and no pickles no ham maybe one slice of cheese. Tamarindo juice didn't taste like anything the sancocho not a fan the only thing that looks ok we haven't try it is the Maduro. This is not the first time last time I went in person and I asked for a chicken soup and when I got home if you see the chicken they gave I was shocked. Safe your money 27.00 dollars WASTED and that's the including tips but he was the only worth paying great attitude very polite.

I’m sorry now Castillo been around for years which is crazy at one point food was amazing. I got food from there yesterday and it was trash, straight basuda. Which I was highly disappointed, pernil was dry and the arroz con gandules had no flavor and was hard like it was the bottom of the pot rice or it had just been sitting there for a min. Very highly disappointed. At one point this was one of my favorite restaurants.

Genuinely disgusted I threw up! Do not purchase from this restaurant extremely unsanitary, found a roach in my food

Food was not good especially for the price. One piece of dry pork chop with hard rice and some gravy. Good to try it once. Now I know to skip this place.
