FOX valley is in for a treat! I'm happy that I don't have to travel to CHICAGO for authentic PUERTO RICAN food. Now I have not visited this place but I did order it through DOOR DASH. So, my review is solely off of take out. However, the flavor was on point that I will visit the location SOON.
HERE IT goes! Dinner platter: Everything was pretty much seasoned correctly. My opinion is the marinated pork should have had a piece of skin as advertised. I rated that 3 1/2. The portions were fair. The pasta salad was a bit over cooked. Rated 2.5 The rice was good I rate that a 5. The pastel was a surprise but a welcomed one. The texture and flavor was great but I wish I would have seen a traditional olive! Rated 4.5. Alcapurra: (plantain meat pie) rated 4 - missing Ketchup/mayo dip Pastillio: Pork meat pie 3.5 Turnover texture too flaky where it's falling apart and wayyy to greasy.
Please see pics. In total I spent $45 on Door Dash. In total they still are a solid 4!! I'm super excited to try more! Con buen...

I was reviewing the menu and the owner walked up to me and showed me a picture of the special; steak and garlic shrimp with tostones and salad. Take my money! The steak was perfectly charred yet still red and tender on the inside topped with diced green pepper and cilantro, the shrimp were swimming in garlic butter and topped with a thick slab of seared onion. Hot tostones to scoop up the food and juices.
I left with a full belly and a heart that longed to be back...
Read moreI been craving Puerto Rican food for a while. We was in Appleton for our sons basketball tournament. Looking for a lunch spot I can across Mi Viejo San Juan on Google Maps. First I can’t believe there’s a Puerto Rican restaurant in Appleton or that there’s any Puerto Rican there to begin with. Food was tasting and definitely worth it. Service was awesome, and so was my Parcha Frappe. Yes real parcha mixed in a Frappe. The only thing missing was morcilla, but yeah no complaints. I recommend Mi Viejo San Juan to locals and everyone stopping in Appleton. Only suggestion put something in the sidewalk like a flag with a signage to let people know there’s a Puerto Rican...
