My mouth was fixed for some authentic Spanish food. Saw stew chicken on El Rey de la Caridad and ordered it for $8 but unfortunately they ran out of it so I placed my order with this spot which ended up being about $12. I went out of my way to pick this up and haul it to Brooklyn. Restaurant is extremely tiny but wasn't relevant since I was taking out. I wanted to eat a little before I left but decided against it. Wish I would've.
I obediently sat still without touching my food the whole train ride. Smelled lovely. I got home and removed all contents of the bag to find out that I was given white rice… White rice… White rice should be a substitute, not the default. I was so mad. I really wanted yellow rice. I looked at the white rice for 5 seconds before I said fugg it and dug in. I enjoyed the chicken very much. It was very tasty, just too many bones, too much gristle and way too fatty. I needed that yellow rice. Now I know for future reference to ALWAYS ask for yellow rice. Always!
A rustic diner place with just a handful of seats but big on meat. Lots of different meat dishes. A regular order of roast chicken includes a big plate of rice, a chicken leg, and some beans just for $6. Interesting people patronize this place. I saw a man in cowboy boots and a fedora.
Locals only type of spot. The food is okish and cheap, but the service is not very good. Additionally, it is really loud, and the patrons like to have loud, yelling conversations across the restaurant with each other and the staff. I think the authenticity factor here is pretty high, but I wouldn't recommend it.
