Best Puerto Rican Food in Fairfield County

Owners are Melvin & Christina Gonzalez. Melvin and Christina have been a team Since 1989. They have decided to bring that family love to the public and share it with you through their food. With Christina being the main cook, she got the best of both worlds when it came to food. On Mom's side of the family, she got the Italian flare and on her Father's side, she was blessed with that authentic Spanish cuisine from Abuela's recipes straight from Puerto Rico.

"Ever since I was a little girl, I could remember our Mom bringing us to my Grandma Mary's every Sunday for 'family dinner' Sunday sauce <3 with the Italian music playing in the background while she cooked. It was a time for all of the cousins, aunts uncles, etc to get together out of their busy week and share our love through food. For both of my Grandmas, the family was everything and they showed that through food. My Father's mom lives in P.R. and I remember my visits as a young child and even an adult to this day staying right by her side when she cooked because her food is AMAZING! I promised both of my Grandmas that I would keep that family tradition of getting together thru get-togethers and food. I have kept up that tradition and even have taught my husband, Mel, to cook passing those family recipes from family to family and now we wish to share that with you!" -Christina
