What Michael Farah (Mike) likes about Cocina Borinquena:
Food is delicious and flavorful, I am picky with my Pernil but this place does it right. The young boy and girl who often work the front are so generous and I’ve seen them first hand go out of their way to make customers comfortable and happy while they wait. I even saw the young boy run and hold the door open for an older man. Made my night! 5 stars View all feedback.

What Ernest C doesn't like about Cocina Borinquena:
A bit disappointing as we were excited to try this place out. Other than the beef empanadas which were pretty good, the rest of the food we ordered did not taste fresh. The shrimp mofungo was dry and a just overwhelming with the amount of raw garlic they put in it. The chuletas tasted as though they had already been cooked earlier and thrown into the fryer to heat up. Overcooked and very salty. Tostones lacked flavor... View all feedback.
