At Fonda El Criollito Restaurant, the menu is a celebration of authentic Caribbean flavors, offering a delightful variety of dishes that cater to all tastes. Start your culinary journey with their Frituras y Empanadillas, which includes crispy treats like the savory Alcapurria de Carne and Empanadilla de Carne, each bursting with rich, seasoned fillings. For a unique twist, try the Empanadilla Carne con Queso or the hearty Empanadilla de Pernil for a perfect mix of tender pork and savory cheese.
For seafood lovers, the Ensalada de Mariscos is a must-try. Choose between the refreshing Pulpo Salad (octopus) or the sweet and tender Carrucho Salad (conch), both served with vibrant, zesty dressings that bring out the natural flavors of the sea.
If you're dining with a group, the Combo Familiar options, such as the Pollo Entero Combo Familiar, are ideal for sharing. Or go for the Fritanga Para 5 Personas or the Picadera Para 8 Personas, a platter packed with delicious fried treats and grilled meats.
Craving comfort food? Their Comida Caliente Especial selections include classics like Churrasco con Arroz Blanco y Frijoles (grilled steak with rice and beans) and Pernil con Arroz Blanco y Frijoles (roast pork with rice and beans). You can also enjoy Pollo Guisado (stewed chicken) served with a generous helping of rice and beans.
For something more indulgent, try their Mofongo, a traditional Puerto Rican dish made from mashed plantains. Whether it's paired with Camarones al Ajillo (garlic shrimp) or Carne Frita (fried beef), it promises a rich, flavorful experience. And for those who like a twist, the Mofongo Loco Plato combines various meats with a playful spin.
No meal is complete without a sweet treat. Tres Leches cake or Flan de Queso is the perfect finish, while refreshing beverages like Parcha Jugo (passion fruit juice) or a creamy Ferrero Rocher Milkshake can be enjoyed throughout your meal.
Fonda El Criollito’s menu is a delightful dive into the heart of Caribbean cuisine, with something for everyone, from bold starters to comforting mains and indulgent desserts.
