I want to like Cocina Candela, which has an elegant ambience and food artfully arranged on the plates, but the flavor's missing: The octopus salad is awash in bland oil, the red snapper rests on a bed of sweet potato puree that doesn't help anything, and the mofongo was rubbery rather than chewy, with cubes of chicken that tasted like lunchroom chicken a la king. The rice with shrimp was nothing much but those two ingredients. The churrasco was pretty good, thank goodness, and as rare as we ordered it. But the tres leches for dessert was disappointing, and that dessert is always a winner elsewhere. My theory: In an attempt to be upscale (nothing wrong with that), Cocina Candela has edited out the bold flavors that I like when I eat Puerto Rican cuisine.

The food was good, but the music was aggressively loud for brunch. I went there for Father's and the whole experience wasn't pleasant because we could barely hear eachother over the music. We asked the server to turn it down 4 times and each time it was barely turned down. Finally, my dad had to get up and complain to the manager and their answer was "the owner likes it loud" Completely unacceptable, especially when your're trying to spend quality family time for brunch on father's day. Will not go back for that reason.

Excellent Brunch! We went for Brunch on Father's Day. Going out on a holiday is usually iffy but we were not disappointed. We had a reservation which we arrived right on time for and we were seated right away. The wait staff was very good and attentive even though it was busy. The place is small but we were comfortable. It was nice outside so the doors and windows were open so there was a really nice breeze. We had corn fritters and empanadas as appetizers. Very good! For brunch we chose Puerto Rican Benedict, a Cuban Sandwich, Lobster Omelette and Chirrasco con Huevos. All were very good! We enjoyed our meal and the atmosphere. We will definitely be back! And now that I know it's BYOB, I'll bring champagne for Mimosas next time!

Even though we had a reservation we were given a tiny table right next to the entrance door. It was unpleasant to have a constant stream of people pushing past the table. The waitress was friendly and attentive and did the best she could. The food was mediocre. The portions were large.
