| - Unfortunately the only PRican restaurant that we had in Tucson closed down a while ago, so one day when we were visiting our son in Phoenix, we decided to try out this place. Starting with the pastellilos (similar to empanadas but fried) the meat was so well seasoned, it tasted like my abuelitas cooking. My husband had an alcapurria, which he loved. We had the appetizer platter, it had tostones, amarillos, fried chicken and fries. The chicken was so tasty, crispy and good. For dinner three of us ordered mofongo (which is my all time favorite dish, everytime we go to the island, we order it) My hubs had it with the garlic shrimp and I had it with the pork, It was moist, garlicky goodness, Delicioso! we also ordered carne guisada (beef stew) with rice and beans, and biftec encebollado with arroz con gandules. Everybody enjoyed their food. We also got the flan which was superb. The beers were ice cold too. The server was very attentive and we also met the owner whch sat down and chatted. He is thinking about expanding to Tucson, all I can say is yes and hurry up!
