Pan De Vida Cafe

Wow! Don’t think have Puerto Rican food before. This was very good and filling. My jaw dropped when the mango bbq pork sandwich came out. It’s a monster sandwich. The yuca fries are not heavily friend and properly seasoned. Cant wait to come back next month!

My son eats it all as you can see him in the picture smiling for more. Acaballo sandwich is great, hope I spelled it good. We enjoy eating here every time we get a chance, specially my wife. The people that work here are very friendly and welcoming. My wife, son and I always have great experience when we eat here. The price is very fair, stop being cheap people!

Great food, great people, good location -- and a secret homemade hot sauce!!
Pastelón, tostones, and alcapurrias were fantastic, as was the mofongo con cerdo frito and the pernil. Didnt get a chance to try the jugo de chinola or horchata, but will next time! Bonus, the Stewart's across the street gives a free ice cream cone if it's your birthday!

WOW! I came here for the first time and I fell in love with the sandwich that I had. I don’t like pork at all,but this roasted pork was AMAZING! I fell in love. I will go back soon. The lady was super nice and I like the style of the place too.

First time here- and it was the food DELICIOUS, and flavorful. Price is definitely worth the amount of food you get, which was still cost effective. My husband got the steak combo and I got the mango pork combo, with sweet plantains, tostones, and 4 empanadas for only 48.00. Will definitely be back with my stretchy pants.

Never been disappointed. Foods always made to order, they'll even do timed orders and have it ready when you arrive. Price to food is beyond amazing. Order extra empanadas cause you'll definitely want more than you think!

Food is great and customer service is excellent.

LARGE portions, delicious food, great ambiance!

This is some delicious, authentic puerto rican food. The flavor is great and the portions are large. The staff are super friendly too. They made me feel like I knew them for years. You won't regret coming here!

EXCELLENT Food

We've been coming here for the last 4.5 years! Each experience is phenomenal. Good customer service, friendly employees and EXCELLENT food! If they are out of something they let you know at the time of order and will wven make suggestions.

I called in an order for pickup and was so pleasantly surprised. Every aspect of my interaction was handled wonderfully, from great customer service on the phone to amazing quality food. I ordered an empanada sampler that had golden crispy pastry and piping hot, flavorful fillings. The cubano sandwich had tender, delicious pork, and the mango BBQ was the surprise hit of the order. Their yucca fries brought me back to my own mother's recipe, with a crunchy outside and fluffy inside. Plenty of sauce included, and the horchata I ordered was a taste of home.

Really worth the drive down, it's a small family operation and the portions are perfect for the price. Looking forward to ordering from here again!

We loved the place as soon as we came through the door. The service was very good very friendly and helpful, the food was authentic varied and delicious, and the Latin American music made a festive atmosphere. The empanadas, horchatas and sandwiches were delicious, authentic and generous proportions!

First let me say that I absolutely love this place! I’m from NJ where you can find great Puerto Rican cuisine . Pan De Vida reminds me of home. The staff here are always friendly; they great you with a smile and genuinely show that they care. The food is absolutely amazingly delicious!! On May 3rd, I had a lot of family come to visit from NJ . I called and asked if Pan De Vida offered family sized entrees that would feed close to 20 people and they were able to accommodate with no problem. We ordered the Arroz con gandules (yellow rice with pigeon peas) and the sweet plantains.... All for an excellent price might I add!!! Some of my family arrived earlier than expected . I called to ask if we can get the order a little earlier .. 30 mins early to be exact... and they agreed and had it hot and ready for me with no hesitation when I came to pick it up. Pan De Vida is awesome! The food is delicious and the service is great!! I absolutely love this place and would recommend everyone to go check them out! You won’t be disappointed! I would give this place 100 stars if I could!!!

The lady that cooks here makes some amazing puerto rican food!! Im very picky when it comes to it and everything that I had today was amazing very humble people felt very welcome. Me and my wife are definitely coming back highly recommend

I love this place! It has great music and the food is phenomenal. It reminds me of being in NYC city getting food from the food truck. The food is very well priced. The workers are sweet and very friendly! I love coming here with my family it feels like home.

Delicious food and always a pleasant experience!

Food and service are always amazing. Every dish is prepared with the authenticity a Puerto Rican family could expect from a restaurant in the island. You truly can try some of the best food Puerto Rico has to offer just by visiting here. Do yourself a favor and ask about their pastries, they are amazing and it's a shame it's not on their menu. I will continue to go there for the foreseeable future.

Lunch consisted of tostone chips, relleno de papa, sorullos, empanadas de pizza beef and cheese and chicken... amazing!!!! Best relleno I've ever had. Definitely enjoyed our food. There menu is expanding! I can't wait to try tostones relleno!

Deliciouse food. Incredible staff. Wonderful management. At times a little pricey but I don't mind it too much. The host are pretty great and friendly for the most part and I the food definitely reminds me of home (PR). An experience that I will continually repeat for the rest of the time I am here in Watertown.

Great service!!! I was greeted with so much love. Their ice tea is my favorite drink. The sandwich A Caballo is what I eat all the time. They also have a mango sauce that everyone loves.
