The food and drinks are delicious and the service is always great even when busy. They took amazing care of a family member with a severe gluten allergy, carefully reviewing the menu with them and steering them away from the foods they could not eat. We love coming here, and are so glad they’re part of the neighborhood.

Had such a lovely meal! The food was absolutely delicious but it was our server Veena, who really went above and beyond to personalize our experience. They were so helpful and informative when accommodating dietary restrictions at the table - Eating out with celiac is hard! But Veena was so sweet and didn’t make us feel like a burden at all. Definitely will be in their section every time we come back!!
We visited the restaurant for Restaurant Week. Menu was great and staff was amazing. Good gluten free options on the menu. Really great food per dollar value!
Totally recommend
Amazing smoothies and bowls and open faced toasts. I’m vegan and gluten free and this is one of the only places I can eat with multiple choices!!
Love the super fruit smoothie and avocado smash toast on GF bread and Mediterranean toast with no cheese on GF bread.
The staff is very friendly, they know my name, they have my smoothie ready for me when I walk in the door without me having to tell them what I need. Super great neighborhood vibe as well!
Thrilled to have a restaurant in DC that sources the highest quality food, which is sadly so rare in the U.S. Ordered 5 desserts for 4 people to celebrate my birthday and all were wonderful. Felt amazing afterwards - no crash or feeling crappy despite eating (unrefined) sugar. Sooo many delicious gluten-free dessert options. Amazing. And zero worries about seed oils. So relaxing and wholesome and delicious compared to the usual eating out options.
A lot of gluten and vegetarian options which is such a plus here. Friendly and efficient service. Thank you Natalie for making sure everything was to our liking and responding quickly to any requests. We’ll definitely be back!
This is a puertorican restaurant, but there's no indication on any of the decor/ambiance that this is Caribbean, Latin flair food. The restaurant looks like it's decorated from Ikea. The service is not whatsoever what a Latin community is about it doesn't reflect Puerto Rico. We are friendly, charming, charismatic, happy, and hospitality people. We strive to make everyone welcome (for the vast majority)
This is not the vibe you get when you arrive here. Once you walk in, you find a seat, scan the QR code on the table, and then you order your food straight from the app. You have to stand up and grab your own plate, napkins, and silverware. The waitress brings your food to the table. The waitress doesn't do anything else just to bring your food. Doesn't come back asking if you need anything else.
The owner is oriental and 5 times he walked around to the other guest asking how everything was, but not once he approached my table to ask me how my food was.
I ordered cheese balls, tripleta, a colao, and a Guanabana smoothy. All these were $59.00. The food was really good. The tripleta was moist, warm, and flavourful. I will just add a bit more of the mayo ketchup or some aoili sauce.
The parking is right behind the building.
For 2 hours, I paid $9.00
There is no vegetarian, gluten-free option.

The food was fantastic and the service even better! They were able to accommodate my gluten and egg allergies and everyone was able to find something that appealed to them. Its a great menu with something for everyone.
Great view of Nationals Park from the second floor. The atmosphere is a really cool art deco, Gatsby-esque style. However, it is a little dark if you're over 40, lol. Be prepared to use your phone in the bathroom to check for messes - it's a black toilet on a black floor with very little light 🤣.
The food is very tasty, portion sizes are fantastic and price appropriate. Staff is great. Owner works his tail off to support his team. View of the River by marina is solid. Outside and inside seating available. Menu has options for everyone - even us dairy free gluten free types!
