Recommendations

"Served on a bed of mashed plantains you have a choice of succulent beef, chicken or seafood. Raices’ version was the best I ever had."
"Plantain soup was outstanding. I would recommend it anytime."
"Don't pass up the plantain soup though; it's the embodiment of simple deliciousness."
"If you ever get to visit that awesome little island, make sure you stop to eat mofongo and drink mojitos at Raices Restaurant. So. Good."
"A Puerto Rican invention of mush plantains, steeped in succulent fish or chicken broth with bite size bits of roasted carrots, peppers, onions, roasted chicken and herbs, or steamed shellfish. Oh my it was heaven!"
"I had the best Mofongo in years as much as it pains me to admit. A truly good Mofongo is savory but not overly salted and this one in particular had a wonderfully firm texture to match the succulent seafood."
"The meat was perfectly grilled, the accompanying churrasco sauce verdant and vinegary, the plantains seasoned perfectly. It was so good we ordered it twice."
"The entire dish has a garlic butter sauce that has worked its way through the plantains all the way to the bottom of the wooden bowl. The smell is heavenly, and the taste is just as good as the smell."
"The meat was so seasoned and delicious, I wish we could have ordered our own. But since the dish is so hearty and rich, a bowl to split was the perfect portion."
