La Puerta Roja Brooklyn Reviews
Eaten here a dozen times and it never disappoints. There's indoor and outdoor seating. The staff is always super nice and fun, and the food is so fresh and delicious. Love the salads, the enchiladas, the guisado, everything. And they made my little girl's birthday a hit!
Good place to go with friends and have some drinks with good food. They prepare our food quickly and everything was fresh and at point I went with my husband and we tried the bandeja paisa , and wings. Homemade lemonade , we will defiantly come back! They have authentic Latin flavor!
Super good! The Pina Colada was SUPER strong. I was really taken a back by how strong it was. The tacos were a 10/10. So good and authentic tasting. The empanada (beef) wasn’t all that good but I ended up ordering another thing of tacos because they were so good. The employees are amazing as well.
Food was very delicious! I wish there was more options with sides/rice, but it was all very good in the end. I would rate the food 10 out of 10 and I would rate my drinks a 4 out of 10 simply because the on the rocks margarita tasted very different and weird. Also dog friendly so that's a plus! All my foodies follow my insta for delicious eats @girleatsworldx
the food and drinks were good. Drinks are strong. I loved the calm atmosphere.
Place was recommended by a friend and took my family and friends for Mother’s Day dinner. Place is not fancy but the food was excellent. The season in the food is perfect. The food was not salty. The Drinks are on point. We had a variety of food on the table they were excellent . Mother’s Day was a bit busy. I did make a reservation but my party was large I had to wait .
My husband and I came here for date night and he order the Chicharron de Pollo. He wasn’t a big fan and said the chicken lacked flavor. I ordered chicken enchiladas and they were delicious. The plates are pretty big so we both had left overs to take home. We also got drinks and they were good and we ordered the spicy tamarind wings which we both enjoyed. There is plenty of seatings but the music always pretty loud. I thought the prices were a bit high.
The oxtail stew was large enough for two people to share, but the ratio of sauce to rice was off. They just gave one little cup of white rice with a cup of beans. The maduros and yuca fries were excellent. The chicken empenada was just okay. We were in the outside room and it was freezing. I asked if they could put the hit up, and the server said it was on a timer.
I came here over the weekend for the first time because I kept seeing the place packed outside. The service can be a tad slow because they are so busy, but the waitstaff is very friendly. The food is a bit on the $$$ costly side, but the food is really good. I got a couple of the specials which were the Crab Croquettes and the Pulled Lamb. Both were cooked beautifully. The Pulled Lamb was so soft and flavorful. My Jalapeno Margarita also hit the spot. They have a very interesting, extensive menu and I will definitely come back.
It has a limited Mexican menu with some items that are more standard bar fair (mac and cheese balls, fries) than Mexican. We had the beef empanadas and chicken enchiladas. Both were fine, but nothing interesting. The enchiladas had some bones that were left in. I'd rather eat from the Mexican place across the street as far as food and price, but this place has the edge for drinks and atmosphere.
It use to be a lot more tasty, But something really changed. I ordered a fried pork chops with salad and the pork chops were very hard I couldn't bite into it I had to bite it on the side of my mouth instead of the front teeth. My salad was very soggy , and my chicken quesadillas were very thick and creamy. But the grilled chicken in the quesadilla was excellent,My daughter surprisingly did not like the mac & cheese - it was bland 😒I was definitely not impressed. It's very pricey 😲But the service was great.
