2007-09-12 19:26:02 Mexican? Can someone confirm this? I've never been, but I'm pretty sure that El Taino serves Puerto Rican food. —JackCalcines
2007-09-23 11:41:34 This restaurant, to which I have not gone in about 6 or 7 years, served Puerto Rican food the last time I went, not Mexican food, in my book. It was very good, very authentic (the chicken had all the skin on it and was mostly dark meat), and a pleasant experience. I should check it out again soon. —KatieSchmitz
2008-02-01 08:44:06 "El Taino" refers to the native people of P.R. Thus I doubt that it's Mexican food. —OwenThompson
2009-03-09 16:32:50 The fried yellow plantains they serve are awesome! I loved eating here for lunch: generous portions and a modest price. The pork is delicious (almost like Chinese roast pork)! The host is very hospitable and friendly. He invited us to try some homemade sauces that were wonderful, too. —Cherkwai
