Welcome to San Eatery: A Culinary Fusion of Latin American and Chinese Flavors

“ I visited this place for the first time, and it is fairly spacious and very clean, with a relaxed atmosphere to enjoy a meal. I was impressed by the size of the dishes wow it was so much that I had leftovers to take home! The flavor was delicious. My husband ordered the steak with chimichurri, and I definitely recommend it. The customer service makes the place even more enjoyable. I would definitely return! ”

“ Everything smacks, the food, the quick and friendly service, everything. The fried rice reminded me of home, the sushi and the mofongo are AMAZING!! Everything is made with such love and you can taste it in the food. A hidden gem. ”

“ If you are looking for authentic Chinese-puerto Rican food, it's here!!! One of the best carne fritas I've had, it's moist but still crispy on the outside and goes well with their mayo-ketchup. Their ribs are to die for along with their sweet plantains. My husband is from the island and we go annually to visit, so this place definitely holds up. Definitely a sleeper and deserves more attention! ”

“ Food is alright, most of there Menu is all dip fryer. They need to add more healthy food Grill items in there menu. ”

“ It's been a long time since I've left a restaurant with heavy bags of food! And for the price point, not bad at all. The food itself is decent but the sheer amount of food is staggering. I'd say if you align your expectations for getting full and feeding a large gathering, this is a pretty reasonable spot. The one thing I didn't love was all the red dye in their dishes. The plantain sushi were surprisingly delicious. Never would've thought to fuse these. Worth a try if you love plantains. ”

“ GOOD FOOD, MASSIVE PORTIONS, NO FRILLS "RESTAURANT" FOOD: Good, borderline great tasting food. VERY GENEROUS PORTIONS! To-go box was overfilled. All your food will be in to-go boxes, whether you say dining in or not. The San Fried Rice (signature) is full of tasty shrimp, chicken, eggs, and steak (slightly well-done though - sigh). The boneless BBQ ribs are super delicious, just a tad on the sweet side. No alcohol. They told me they used to have alcoholic drinks though. They've been open for about 4 yrs. $1 for bottled water (Ozarka). $2 for Arizona Iced Tea 20oz (maybe for sodas also). I mentioned prices because drink prices are not on the menu. Not bad. AMBIENCE: Non-existent. Seems like they are just a restaurant hybrid. Half of the "restaurant" is decorated with small non-functional windows and doors on the walls (yes doors). The other half is filled with cartons of soda cans and other supply boxes (see pics). You can tell that they really want you to take your food to go! Seems like this place is stuck in the COVID era. Mask sign is still prominently posted on door, ALL food is packed to-go containers, inside a plastic grocery bag, only small plastic forks (no real sturdy utensils), flimsy white paper plates, and only small 8 oz plastic cups (4 gulps worth before you have to refill them). CUSTOMER SERVICE: Meh at best. Friendly at register. But after you pay, they pretty much will leave you alone. Good for some guests, bad for others. So if you want ice or a cup, or anything else, you must go to the counter and ask. Contrary to another reviewer, they seemed willing to give me what I requested (twice) in a polite, friendly manner. MISC: The restaurant is a Chino Latino restaurant. But I didn't expect them to take it so literally. Working the register is a latino guy and an asian (chinese) guy. LOL. Well, there is also a young latina in the front, in charge of wrapping up the food and doing misc duties (like giving me with a cup of ice). Also, you won't find their menu if you enter the restaurant and head to the left. Despite having 2 computer screens above the register, there is no menu or food listings on them - only rotating pics of some of the food plates. Another customer pointed out that the menus were lying flat on the drinks refrigerator, so they are sort of hidden. Of course, in COVID fashion, they are on plain 8x11 paper and laminated. Now, if we had turned right when we entered, we would've been on a small narrow "yellow brick road", protected by a tall wall, that would lead us straight to the drinks refrigerator. Duh. Clueless us. Anyway, tonight was our first time. We will def be back to try other items on their menu. ”

“ This was a nice surprise. We went on Saturday around 3ish and were lucky enough to score a table. The place is small so space is limited. They seem to be constantly busy. When you walk in, go to the right to place order. We got the family pack and a mofongo to share. The family pack comes with 1/2 gallon of rice, 2 proteins, plantain and 4 canned sodas. Did not get a picture of everything. The 1/2 gallon of rice was huge. Our two proteins were the bbq boneless pork and the garlic chicken. The mofongo was disappointing. The rest of the food was awesome. There was plenty of food for seconds and to take leftovers home. We'll be back. Maybe not to eat there but most definitely to go. ”
