Casa Adela has been a staple for some of the best authentic Puerto Rican cuisine since opening its doors in the 1970’s. While the restaurant has undergone some aesthetic renovations over the years the quality of food and family atmosphere has remained the same. “I’ve been coming here for a while now after work and some things have changed but the food has always been great” said one loyal patron, Eric Ramirez, 34.
You could usually find owner, Adela Fargas,81 busy in the kitchen cooking some of her signature dishes from Puerto Rico including Pernil Asado (Roast Pork) and Carne Guisada (Beef Stew). When asked if she could describe her restaurant in one word she briefly replied “home” as she continued to prepare her traditional chicken for service.
Perhaps the most well regarded is the 1/2 rotisserie chicken seasoned with a safely guarded special blend. This is the aroma you first encounter once you enter.
The classic combo of Spanish style yellow rice and black beans served with your choice of entree.
Maduros, traditional Puerto Rican cuisine.
Fried Pork chops, served with a wedge of lemon (for flavor). Crispy on the outside while remaining tender on the inside.
What the restaurant lack in terms of size and payment options (cash only) it makes up for it hospitality.The vibe Casa Adela strives for is the comfort one might feel in their own Abuela’s kitchen. The t.v is constantly on Telemundo as authentic Puerto Rican cuisine arrives on your table.
