"Hubby and I were craving Puerto rican food and found this great food truck. Food was delicious and I even found someone to order traditional coquito. This are new spot. I definitely recommend getting a delicious plate have a seat and enjoy the atmosphere."

"I had the pleasure of ordering from Borikén Puerto Rican Kitchen for a Thanksgiving potluck at my new workplace, and I am beyond grateful for the exceptional service provided by Nora, the owner. Despite the food truck being closed that day, Nora went above and beyond, making an exception to cook a delicious Puerto Rican feast for us. Her dedication and effort truly shone through, making our celebration extra special. The flavors were authentic and mouthwatering, and my coworkers couldn't stop raving about the food. I want to express my heartfelt thanks to Nora for her exceptional service and encourage others to support this fantastic food truck. The passion and love she puts into her cooking are truly unmatched. Don't miss the chance to experience the culinary delights of Borikén Puerto Rican Kitchen!"

"I really don't get all the negative reviews this place is getting. I spent the last 5 months going to Aguadilla for work every other week and can safely say I've tried virtually every restaurant in Aguadilla, Isabella, San Antonio, Jobos and the Rincon area and even Arecibo. I'm not from Puerto Rico but I've had my fair share of Puerto Rican and Spanish food being from Colombia and growing up around Cubans and Dominican as well. I found this place because I've raved about all the awesome PR food I've had the last few months that a friend wanted to try Puerto Rican food. So off to Google it was and found Borikèn Puerto Rican Kitchen, food truck. They had a good selection to pick from but I went with Sami's Sampler because it had a little bit of everything; Carne Frita, arroz con gandules, alcapuria de carne, tostones, and pastelón de carne which has ground beef, cheese and sweet plantains. Sooo good, sooo good! The Carne Frita or fried pork for non-Spanish speakers was delish! Perfectly crisp pork on the outside, chewy on the inside topped with onions, cilantro and garlic. The arroz con gandules were on point, super moist! The gandules tasted like if they were just hand picked from the tree in your Tia's backyard, and the rice not dry at all like I had in most places in PR! The Alcapuria was not stiff or hard at all and very tasty, not super greasy either like they usually are, muy bueno!! The pastelón seemed premade but still good. Lastly and the staple of all Caribbean countries was the tostones or patacones like we call them in Colombia. They were served with the most popular sauce of all time of Puerto Rico, Mayo-Ketchup. The only suggestion I have is make then thinner so they're crispier when you fry them the second time. These were a bit thick so the inside was a little soft as a result! I def recommend this place just don't go like we did when it was 95° with 1000% humidity outside because being that it's a food truck, sitting is outside and food is also delivered nice and caliente as well. Last suggestion I have is get a liquor license because a Medalla would've washed everything down nicely. Definitely coming back otra vez!"

"We recently had the pleasure of visiting Boriken Puerto Rican Kitchen, and oh boy, what a culinary delight it was! We were considering them for our wedding catering, and let me tell you, they won our hearts with their mouthwatering Puerto Rican dishes. Located in Spring, Texas, this food truck captures the essence of Puerto Rican flavors like no other. From the moment we arrived, the aroma of traditional dishes filled the air, transporting us straight to the streets of San Juan. We indulged in a feast of Puerto Rican classics, and each bite was a burst of authenticity and deliciousness. The arroz con gandules had the perfect balance of flavors, and the rice was cooked to perfection. The tostones were crispy and paired beautifully with the mayo ketchup (pink) dipping sauce. And don't even get me started on the sorullos de maiz - they were heavenly! The star of the show was undoubtedly the pernil asado. The tender and juicy slow-roasted pork melted in our mouths, and the seasoning was spot on. As a Puerto Rican myself I can tell you - Boriken Puerto Rican Kitchen knows exactly how to make it shine! We also had the pleasure of trying their mini mofongos and yuca frita. The mini mofongos were soft and packed with flavor and the perfect size for snacking. As for the yuca frita, it was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, a true delight. Aside from the incredible food, the service was exceptional. The owner at Boriken Puerto Rican Kitchen is Nora, and she is super friendly, attentive, and made us feel like part of the family. She took the time to explain each dish. It was evident that they put love and care into every aspect of their food and service. If you're searching for an authentic taste of Puerto Rico in the Houston area, look no further than Boriken Puerto Rican Kitchen. With their delicious platters and warm hospitality, they'll transport you to the beautiful island in no time. Whether you're planning to got out for a quick bite or a special event like a wedding, their food will surely impress you and leave you craving for more."

"This was our first time, and we'll definitely be coming back. The food was delicious and tasty. We had a Mofongo con Churrasco. The mofongo was very soft and flavorful. I loved the garlicky flavor on it. The Churrasco was good, and the chimichurri-sauce gave it that extra flavor needed. We also got a Pastelón Empanadilla. It was really good. The crust was crunchy, and the filling was pretty good. I would've liked more flavor on the Empanadilla. The menu was varied, so I would come back yo try other things. We ordered to go, but there are plenty of tables around the area to sit and eat."
