There are not a lot of options for Puerto Rican food in Phoenix, especially late night. Phoenix Coqui has only been open for a couple of months now and can be found in the Melrose neighborhood at a couple of the bars located on 7th Avenue. Everything about Phoenix Coqui was 5 stars the food, the service, and friendly owners. We tried all of the empanadillas the beef, chicken and pizza. We were surprised by how good the pizza one was! We also tried the Jibarito and the Tripleta, both were fantastic but I'd give the slight edge to the Tripleta. The owners also gave us a sample size of the their arroz con gandules which we are definitely ordering next time we go!
