The food is very good and tasty. My second visit I had yellow rice and black beans with barbecued chicken and plantains. Yum they fix your plate whether you take out or eat in. Meats are cooked I love it.. It is take out restaurant.

Las Americas is definitely the best Spanish restaurant in the neighborhood. But they can be hit or miss. The plus side is that they have a wide range of great Spanish food selections, with taste on par with restaurants in the Bronx. And that's a big compliment. While the food is excellent, they are not consistent with the portions. For example, I recently ordered a plate with pork ribs, and they gave me one rib and a half. And this cost 10 bucks! The person who usually gives the small portions is the pretty Latina that wears makeup. The rest tend to be much more generous. Generally, the best deals are dinner combos. And note that they do charge a fee + taxes when you lay by credit card, which they don't mention. So, as long as you get the right person, you should be happy.

Keeping this simple. Delicious pizza!! Amazing renovation and decor. Small location but maximized efficiency to seat a good amount of people. Open late at least on Friday and Saturday. I'm here on a Saturday night at 2am and still going strong with delicious pizza. A Haven't tried the other food yet but after just tasting the pizza I will definitely be trying other foods here. Staff are very friendly and food is heated up very quickly and pizza tasted very fresh. Will be here again and recommend everyone to try them and support their new business here. I'll be back!

Not long ago, even the act of using a credit card for food seemed a bit highfalutin' to me, but my reverse snobbery is a hobby, not a religion, so I'll admit that the merits of Journal Square and Silicon Valley aren't mutually exclusive. Or to put it more simply, I like pork. Las Americas has been around for years but I knew nothing about it pre-Uber Eats. Pork with rice and pigeon peas for $7 was an old-school classic. If you're a fan of ultra-lean pork or Beyond Pork or pork lollipops glazed with lime cilantro reduction, you might not like it. It didn't have ton of sauce beyond maybe a hit of vinegar, and didn't need any.

One of the hidden gems near JSQ - I love their lechon and plantains! Card and cash accepted, friendly staff

I walked in randomly, one day after work and I ordered the oxtail with yellow rice and black beans. (I wouldn't eat here, it's pretty small and you can feel the cold because a lot of people are coming in and out of the restaurant ) The portion was great ( especially considering I ordered oxtail- I usually get 3-4 pieces of meat but they have me twice that amount ) and the taste was even better, I can't wait to try to more things. All and all I think it's a great place to pick up food to go when you want a Spanish food that feels homemade

Muy Bueno! Ordered delivery service for a $3 fee sans tip. Delivery time was short and food arrived hot. Everything was deliciousos. 1)Seperato Pollo Guisado w/white rice -flavorful sauce /seasoned big fat chix legs 2)Seperato Carne Guisado w/white rice -very tastey / tender chunks and strips of beef The beans that come with the meals were mixed with some veggies. -yum. Apps: Papa Rellena- crispy on the outside / fluffy on the inside / tasteful minced meat middle Alcapurria- too oily and a over cooked. I felt like the alcapurria wanted to be good but ended up costing the rating a star.
