We tried the Jibarito de bistec with puerto rican rice and mufongo with pernil. Everything was absolutely delicious, but the Jibaritoooooooooo. OH MY GOODNESS!!!! That sandwich was pure perfection and the steak was so tender.

Very delicious! We were looking for a nice home-like meal and this just hit the spot! We ordered mofongo,pernil, and a jibarito and honestly was one of the best Puerto Rican food I’ve ever had (and I’ve been to many) love this place super flavorful and we had to get dessert! Love the budín and pastelllos de guayaba were super yummy. Once again this place is super delicious and the people are so nice I would recommend to go to and supports this place!

My husband and I have been coming since opening day, every other Sunday. The food is consistently delicious and super fresh. All their sandwiches are made to order and their pastries are always on point. Can’t recommend them enough for breakfast as well as lunch for Puerto Rican delicacy and hospitality. The music, the atmosphere of the place always feels like being on the island. =)

May GOD bless the owner and the employees that serve the best Boricua food in Wisconsin.Never had carné frita so tender and well seasoned.If you want to get a taste of real Puerto Rican food you gotta go to Joanna’s Cafe.Oh yeah and if you have a sweet tooth for some Puerto Rican pastries just like the bakery’s in Puerto Rico when I was a kid.God Bless

This place is fantastic! The plates are delicious and the sandwiches are crazy. And they use the proper bread for the Cubano. Staff was friendly and welcoming these are the places I’ll support all day everyday.

This is a lovely little family owned small business! Good prices for good food. I highly recommend it, both for carry out or dining in. The quesito con guayaba is my favorite. 🙂
