"I've been craving mangú ever since we returned home one day and someone else's tres golpes order was left on our doorknob. Today I went searching for a nearby restaurant that offered mangú for brekkie and ordered from Jr primos which is also known as Los Primos Restaurant and 690 Los Primos, both on Grubhub and online. Whatever the actual name, I chose them because of the many types of hits they offered. I ordered some plain mangú, a four hit mangú, a two hit mangú and some french toast with beef sausage. The packaging could have been better. Everything is really oily and some of the packaging got beat up during delivery so I had a pool of oil in the bag which made the paper bag rip. The four hit says it comes with the whole shebang: two eggs any style, fried cheese, fried salami, bacon or ham, longaniza, and your choice of mangú, cassava, malanga or mashed potatoes. Unfortunately, my son's order was missing two other proteins based on the ordering menu, ham and bacon. The two hit came with fried salami, fried cheese, two eggs and the same starch choice. We went with mangú for everything. Again, it was missing a protein so not sure if it is just a typo on the food delivery app. The french toast came with choice of meat. I ordered the beef sausage but that was cooked to death, dry and hard. This was ordered for my tot but she's not feeling too well so she didn't eat it. The french toast looked fine, nothing special about it and you could smell the cinnamon. Everything was still warm when we got it so I was happy about that. The mangú was very bland. I had to add salt to it which I wasn't happy about. The eggs were also bland. I'm giving two stars because of the missing items, packaging and flavor. Still on the hunt for some bomb mangú. Times like this I wish I still lived in Yonkers, near Washington Heights."

"I was so looking forward to eat at this restaurant as my friend has been going here for many years since the time she lived in BX until now years after moving to the DC area. She has always raved about their food so we knew it was a must to stop by there last night to get our plates of food to take with us back home. We bought rez guisado con arroz y habichuelas. She also bought a small portion of chicken guisado because she noticed the portion of the rez guisado they served was small. Everyone’s demeanor seemed as though they were just ready to just close shop and be on their way. Granted it was late when we arrived (around closing) but there was still food available and rendering proper customer service and good food is a must at any hour for a food establishment. One particular lady was not very pleasant and when I tried to carry a short conversation with her about how we were taking the food back home to show how excited we were, she didn’t say a word to me until I repeated the comment to her in Spanish twice more loudly the second time (although politely) so she could tell I knew she was being rude. Her reaction when she did respond was “ah ok” and then she proceeded to serve the rest of my order. Also my portion of red beans/habichuelas were served in a small plastic container and when I opened it today to reheat my plate of food at home there was literally no beans and nothing but the sauce in the container (check the pictures). The rez guisado was basically three chunks of meat with three potatoes and barely any sauce was added. The yellow rice was very dry as well. Overall the taste of the food was mediocre and so was the service. My friend says the quality of the food has definitely changed and for my first experience it will definitely be the last."
