La Famosa offers a delightful taste of Puerto Rican cuisine in a cozy and trendy setting. First time here, I couldn't resist trying the Chicken Mofongo - absolutely delicious and served with a side of flavorful chicken stock. The ambiance was casual and perfect for solo dining. I enjoyed a refreshing sangria that really hit the spot! Service was speedy, plus the staff was genuinely friendly. Just a heads-up, parking can be tricky, so plan ahead. Can't wait to return for breakfast next time! 🌟
