Cocotazo

Inside, the decor transports guests straight to the island, where diners can sip a Coco Lima or fresh natural juice while watching customers play dominoes at the tables. The kitchen turns out dishes like savory guava-glazed ribs, alcapurrias, and bistec encebollado served with seasoned beans. The hospitable staff and chef routinely check on tables, adding to a welcoming atmosphere that makes the space feel like eating in a family kitchen, rounded out by a popular tres leches cake.
