although the menu is limited everything us cooked to perfection the food tastes like someone's grandmother made it this place deserves a 5 star rating
Can you say DELICIOUS!! Whenever I am in town it's an absolute MUST that I come here. Food is ALWAYS hot and fresh. I recommend EVERYTHING. Whatever you like buy it. Whatever you wanna try, try it. You won't be disappointed.
Awesome treat! The pernil is well seasoned. The chicken empanadas are awesome. The chicken is flavorful!
Great experience. Delicious alcapurrias and roast pork. No mojito was disappointing. Went back next day for more. Had the bacalaito, but couldn't eat it. Too greasy. Worth repeating: delicious alcapurrias!
Few days ago I visited Porky's Point and I have to said that I was not disappointed, food was awesome good !!! Authentic Puertorican food . Finally I found a place with the real taste . Service was fast , and price was fairly good. I got few items forgotten from my order but I understand they were busy and things happen, I definitely will be back soon !
This place is so good! Every time I go, I get the rice and beans platter with a side of pork and mix everything together. The sofrito base of the beans keeps the platter from being too dry and the pork usually has some tender and moist cuts. One star off for being cash only, average empanadas, alcapurria, and other starters, and for a little bit of inconsistency in the quality of the pork. Pro tip: go during the day! There are cops everywhere at night cause this restaurant is in the hood. Overall, solid Puerto Rican fast food that's better than a lot of the Puerto Rican food I had in sit down restaurants in Puerto Rico.
This place, a literal hole-in-the-wall, is probably the best Puerto Rican food place in the East coast! We found out about this place by friends, but they were selling the place with such enthusiasm that I admit I started to doubt their sincerity. Oh, boy were they right! After four or five visits so far throughout the span of 3 years (we live in NVA and only visit the area for rowing competitions), we have tried almost everything on their menu. Rice and beans, morcilla (Puerto Rican blood sausage), alcapurrias, pernil, yuca, I mean... everything is delicious! But, my favorite is carne frita (fried pork) with mofongo! Out-fricking-standing! If you are in the Philly/Camden area, and like boricua food, you MUST try Porky's Point!!
