The food is amazing here. It is located in a old Town in which had some nice vibes. I ordered the platter with rice, pork, and beans. This is a must combo. The rice is wonderfully seasoned and directly complements the pork. Pork is tender and juicy! I love my pork salted well and this place does that exactly. The beans are amazing with the rice. I mixed them in and this enhances the food to the next level! Yum!
Lmfaoooooo I knew I should’ve not been lazy today and cooked it my damn self !! I be knowing better but I try to give restaurants a try especially when I’m not tryna come back home to Amherst and cook ! Dry meat arroz con gandules had no flavor whatsoever and not to mention the “Cuero” was not giving crunchy salty whatever “cuero “ from the pernil gives it def was not giving !! Quick stop before heading back to Amherst and omg this spot wasn’t it …. Sorry but it wasn’t for me .
Lovely hole in the wall in Holyoke. Cafeteria-style check out but very pretty and welcoming decor, and very clean. I'm not even sure what I ate, everything was going so fast through the line, but it was a very tasty chicken and tomato dish. I also had the rice with shrimp and the homemade tres leches cake was sinfully good.
Best food around. It's like eating at home. It's so fresh and I find myself craving it regularly.
Very homey and comfortable place! The food is delicious, served by extremely friendly people, and most importantly... the taste is perfect! It's definitely an abuela approved place to eat. 10/10 would recommend!
