| - We were in Las Vegas for my wedding on 3/28. We rolled deep from New York, and New Mexico and I was so happy to find a Rican restaurant. I had friends coming in from New Mexico who only had the opportunity to eat my cooking, and it was nice to be able to introduce them to things that I don't (or can't) normally cook . Plus, it was also a pleasure to not have to eat overly priced food on the strip.
Ambiance = Its a little hole in the wall, cafeteria/Food Court style restaurant so don't expect anything fancy. These are usually the places that have the best comida.
Food = I ordered the Mofongo with Shrimp/Garlic. The mofongo was moist, and delicious but like another yelper said, the garlc sauce could've used a little salt. Since I was greedy, I was trying everyone else food as well (Its a good thing I had already gotten married the day before or I probably wouldnt have fit into my dress lol).
I tried the Carnitas fritas (which BTW I ended up ordering my own to go),
Arroz con gandules (which was just as delicious the next day),
Bacalaito (which was tasty but a little greasy),
Bistec encebollado (which was not dry, or too vinegary and was very VERY yummy).
We will have to make this our new spot and will make sure to to hit it at least once every visit out to LV.
BUEN PROVECHO!!!
