Lechonera El Barrio Restaurant - DeLand

What a great find! First time here, but it won't be the last time. Warm, friendly greeting and we were served by the owner Enrique. Food was delicious, fresh and flavorful. I eat yuca a lot. This was by far the best I've had. Seasoned perfectly. Will be coming back for the yuca frita! Portions were great, senior discount was nice too! Thank you for a great meal!

The food is amazing! The alcapurria was delicious, and the beef empanada is the best I have had in a long while! Both fried to order and tasted so fresh. My husband had the rice with gandules, pernil, yuca and maduros. They offered cuerito, which was crunchy to perfection! Of course I had to taste it all. The owners are also super nice. Many other choices in the menu we could not eat this time so we'll be back soon. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20

The richest Latin food that I have been able to eat in Florida, I love the attention and the food is varied and very tasty. Service: Take out Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20

Excellent food. Hot and fresh. They could use more employees.

We “took out” last night Friday 2/10/23. First time here and definitely will not be the last. I have been all over Latin America the food at Lechonera El Barrio was not only great but enough for another meal today.
