Food is great. Im sick and came here early in the morning for some Chicken Soup due to my diet restrictions I cannot eat any carbs so I asked the lady if she can just put the soup liquid and chicken which she politely did for me. I go back later in the day because the soup did help but now there is a different lady whom would not for the life of her to try accommodate. My gf even asked if she could have some of the food in a small size container she blatantly says No it has to be with rice and beans for $12 😂 I laugh because no other spanish establishment has ever given me responses like this and I eat plenty spanish food. The food is good and like all the other reviews state the service is trash straight basura 🗑️ Wish I didnt spend my money...

This is more like an advice to the owner more than a review criticizing them, service always great, the owner is always there and greets u when u walk in no complaints there. But the last two times i been there including today 5/10/2024, the rice has no salt or very low on salt and it taste bad!. We all know to much salt isn’t good for you but the cook isn’t putting any salt at all on the white rice, and today i noticed the red beans had hardly any flavor on it.. My advice have a talk with ur cook, if they cook like that for their own home thats fine but to sell the public u have to add salt to the food!! Please! Thanks! I still love Rice & Beans restaurant but please talk to ur...
