Acri Cafe - The Bronx

This restaurant is a hidden gem with a beautiful interior featuring high ceilings, marble accents, and rustic wooden tables. The food is exceptional and I appreciate that they are willing to customize dishes based on my preferences. I frequently dine here for lunch and often see state officials enjoying a meal as well. The restaurant offers free parking in front and I highly recommend it to everyone!

The ambience is awesome you have music and you have their family attending to your needs as well as the friendly waitresses. The food is great some plates you can even share. They do not have A-1steak sauce, they have another home made sauce for the steak. that is my only indifferent announcement, so many people love A-1 steak sauce. I still highly recommend this place. FYI it's run by Jimmy and his family. If you have gone to any of his other restaurants you'll know this is high quality service. The attached pictures are a seafood salad and blue point oysters.

The weather was perfect at 72 degrees and everyone should visit this hidden gem! The food, service, and ambiance were all excellent. There are plenty of seating options, from high tops to low tables, and they even have heated outdoor seating for chillier days. Parking is plentiful on weekends when the DMV is closed, otherwise, it may be more limited. The drinks were fantastic, with great mixology, and the food was authentic Puerto Rican cuisine. The appetizer platter can easily serve 3 or 4 people before entrees. The seasoned fritters were amazing and they also offer healthy options for those looking for a lighter meal. The entrees were delicious, especially the catfish. We had leftovers to take home and they were just as good the next day. The prices were very reasonable, with gratuity included. The staff, particularly our server Jasmine or Jennifer (sorry, I'm bad with names due to chemo brain), were all incredibly friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to visit again!

The service was great and the food was delicious. A little more salt/seasoning would have really made the foods we tried pop with enormous flavor. This was a beautiful find when running around and is more of a 4.5. Will definitely return was a great place, great decor and a whole in the wall speak easy feeling when driving through this factory town area of the BX. Very cost efficient and large portions.

I went for the first time to con sofrito and it was great!From the cleanliness to the wonderful waitress and delicious food/drinks!!The place also looked great.There were 2 areas for taking pic’s in the main bar/restaurant .It’s cool they have 2 different bar/restaurants with different music.Then to top it off they also have small rooms with TVs in which you can smoke hookah or just hang out hearing your choice of music .Me and my company were very well taken care of .I love this place and will be back with many more friends!!Thank you!!
