**Dining at Nelly’s: An Emerging Experience in Puerto Rican Cuisine**
Nelly’s restaurant offers a mixed culinary experience with notable highlights and areas needing improvement. While diners rave about the flavorful empanadas and satisfying sweet plantains, many lament the salvation of over-seasoned dishes, particularly the overly salty proteins and bland rice options. Customer service has shown variability, with some patrons encountering inattentive staff. Portion sizes, especially rice, often overshadow meat offerings, leaving some feeling short-changed for their dining experience. Despite these critiques, a few meals stand out for their authenticity, suggesting that Nelly’s possesses the potential to return to its flavorful roots in Puerto Rican cuisine.

I will never order from here again! I ordered a beef empanada and received one that was completely empty! I honestly thought it was a joke, but it wasn't. I highly discourage coming here!!!!
The steak and onions, oxtail, and beef stew are all delicious. However, my main issue is that they tend to use too much salt in their dishes. With all the flavorful ingredients they incorporate, the extra salt really isn't necessary. Each dish is served with rice and beans. The service is also quite good.
The staff was friendly, and the portion sizes for the small plates were decent, priced at $10 each.
