adobo puerto rican cafe

greatfoodgreat atmosphere. para la gente simple, asi que si tu le la das de millonario sigue caminando. if you come here expecting 5 star service and pampering go somewhere else. this isn't a bad thing but some people expect every place they eat to be that and then come on here and give businesses bad reviews when the business isn't that. reviewed within its category this is a great place with slight room for improvement, give them a chance and they'll continue to learn and get better.
this is all about thefoodand thefoodis good and priced reasonably. some people don't understand how a latin restaurant works. let me explain something to you, not all thefoodis ready at the same time and some things have to be made on the spot. i've had rice and beans made by many different places and no 2 are exactly the same but they have all been good to me, i appreciate the slight differences in how caribbean people cook the same thing. i don't care that about the chairs, or the plates...i care about what i am putting into my mouth...la camida y nada mas. asi que dejen tanta quejaderas y coman que ustedes saben que eso esta bueno. the complaints about this place posted here is like if i went to afoodtruck after the club and bitched about not having a waiter...pendejadas like that.

not worth it...sorry!!. my wife and i went there last saturday with big hopes,my god we walk out so disappointed. let's see where to begin, no greeters, no menus, no attendants, no waitress, plastic cutlery,foodc- quality, ambiance c-,decorations c+, mobiliary ( plastic ) d- overall experience from 10 to 1, i0 being the highest we score them #.3.sorry ,this people does not represent the quality and carisma of our natives restaurants.they have a lot to learn from the ground up.

surprisingly good food. i try to stay away from chains and eat at holes-in-the-wall. never had puerto ricanfoodand was pleasantly surprised. the service was great and thefoodeven better. the house-made mango juice was awesome. overall the experience was awesome.

great food. the closest i've been to mom's original pr cooking. i can wing making rice & beans pr-style, but these are the best ever. i think even better than mom's (sorry mom)! so the place can use a little decorative improvement...this "cafe" is all about the good food. been here twice with a few non-pr friends that never knew what prfoodwas about & they loved it!

so so.foodtasted ok service was terrible!

love your food. best puerto ricanfoodi have found in tx. just like my mother's food. best pasteles y alcapurrias. i feel at home there.

last time i was here was 8 months ago, it's about time to renew and refresh the ambience of this place, now they even charge for the ice... plastic chair and disposable container doesn't make it very appealing , staff would need to look more professional, since this is the only place to find this food, make the drive worth it.foodis tasty tho.

delicious food. very affordable, fresh made daily. my fav carne guisada (beef stew) with white rice and red beans puerto rican style. it is a cafeteria with plastic chairs,foodserved on disposable plates i guess that makes it inexpensive. i would recommend it.

right.foodtastes good but no customer service, no glamour at all. togo boxes instead of real plates that was the worst thing ever, so uncomfortable.

comida. my brother took me there and thefoodwas mucho plenty good!!

great prican food. this is not a rest. is a fonda or cafeteria style. but, thefoodand prices are great.

it's a comfortable place. thefoodwas delicious. the seating was plastic chairs but who cares, it's not going after the look of a super quality restaurant. it felt alot like a very comfortable place to go, to enjoy the current to times pricing offoodwith big portions. yes they serve thefoodin to-go containers but its because you're served big portions so it's easier to just close and take rest home. if they served thefooddifferently then you would have overflowing plates withfoodall over the place. i will definitely go there again. it was very easy to find especially since ive never been there and was in traffic on belt line rd until i saw the flag. que bonita bandera, la bandera puertoriquena.

review on adobo.foodwas great!! a little bit on the expensive side but worth it!!

not worth the money spent!. i've been to this eatery a few times while on layover in dallas, mostly with local friends. you would think that being the only puerto rican restaurant currently in operation in the metroplex, that the owners would take pride in their establishment, but that is not the case. i went there a few days ago and ordered steak with onions, rice and beans. it took them 45 minutes to get thefoodto the table. when i looked for the onions on the steak, there were only a few pieces and when asked what had happened to them, the waitress said that they had apparently broken up in the cooking process. the restaurant does not believe in washing dishes so they serve everything in styrofoam containers, even the beans ( not the best favored i may add here ),are served in foam 'dixie cups'. another pet peave are the tables that wobble and are unstable, plus the plastic lawn chairs. perhaps what i mind the most is the high price of the otherwise nothing to write home aboutfoodand presentation, and the 'take it or leave it' attitude of the people that work behind the counter. i did meet the owner and he is very nice and welcoming, but if he is to stay in business, he needs to improve things and fast. next time i am in dallas, i will go to "caribbean cafe" which is cuban, or, casa vieja, which is colombian. there is also inca's cafe, a very elegant but affordable peruvian restaurant, also within 30 minutes from the dfw airport.

puerto ricanfoodis great but it needs to be presented well and has to be consistently of good quality.

good authentic puertorican home cooking. modestly priced. made fresh. be patient, while the wait for thefoodis decreasing, it may seem like a long time waiting for your good. but overall well worth the wait.

ifoodis great.

authentic puertorican flavor. finally a place where you can enjoy real puertoricanfoodwith authentic puertorican flavor made by 100% puertorican staff. not a restaurant but a traditional cafeteria.

most try the bread " pan sobao ", carne frita con mofongo and puertorican sodas like ok cola,old colony, malta india & much more.

also, as you wait for your order you can enjoy puertorican music videos and clips of old times tv shows like los cacucomicos, etc.
