Pressed

Food is great! I’m from up north where I can get authentic Spanish food all the time, in the south it’s hard to come by but this place surely didn’t disappoint. The white rice and black beans were perfect! Tostones fried perfectly especially with the dipping sauce. The beef empanadas was everything! I ordered one to go. Lastly, I ordered the chicken chimichurri sandwich which was also tasty! Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!!

I can't say enough good things about Pressed by Spanglish. As a Puerto Rican woman myself, this food brings back incredible memories and my grandmother's cooking. Every time I come, I am blown away by the menu and the authenticity. Every item I have had has been stellar. I suggest trying each of the empanadas and going for a bowl. You won't regret it.

It was a random weekday afternoon and we happened to be un the area when we noticed Pressed off the road. After a quick search we realized this would be a unique lunch experience so we ventured in. There is limited parking immediately out front but additional spots are off to the side. The restaurant server Puerto Rican fare and is very vibrant with turquoise blue walls as you enter. We glanced at the menu and asked about the special + soup of the day, which was chicken corn tortilla soup. The soup peaked my interest so of course we ordered that along with a Chimi Chicken Panini and the Pressed Caprese. Everything was made to order so we took a seat for about 10 mins before the food was ready. Luckily we weren't in a hurry. The food came out nice and hot, and was delicious all around. The soup was absolutely amazing, amd the paninis were packed with flavor. It was nice to experience something a bit different from the usual sandwich shops. If you get the chance, definitely go get your PRESS ON!

First time visiting! We ordered the tripleta, tostones, and chicken and beef empandas. - the chicken empanada was good - Beef empanada was good, but pretty greasy bc of the beef and it's deep-fried. - Tripleta sandwich was very very meaty! Overall it was pretty tasty if you like A LOT of meat - Tostones were thick and hearty. It comes with a dipping sauce, but it still may lack flavor for some people. I would HIGHLY recommend if you get the tostones, you ask for their seasoning salt to put on top, and Oh my, SO GOOD! I'm glad I tried this place and might return, and Overall, I definitely think everyone should try something from here at least once !!

We have been here a few times over the last year, and the food has been inconsistent, but this most recently time everything was AMAZING! I got the Dirty Dancing- the fried eggplant is so good! All the flavors go together well, and it is enough food for two meals. My partner got RDU to SJU and he said it was really good too. The pork belly was fatty but in a good way! We also always get a side of tostones and S’more empanadas! Those are my favorite!

Food was good, attention was good, we came in a little late so half our order was served in regular plates and half of it already in to go boxes, which was weird but also practical and well thought! The fried cheese with guava sauce is incredible. My favorite. I had “la diaspora” and it was a great choice, the stuffed avocado was also very nice and they have mofongo and other Puerto Rican classics.

The food here is delicious and authentic Puerto Rican cuisine. I tried the The Conquistador from the breakfast menu and it was delicious! My wife tried the El Coqui from the lunch menu and it was amazing! I had some to try and i wanted to take her plate away from her! It was exquisite and tasted amazing! Great restaurant to visit and order anything off the menu, I can imagine all will be amazing! I will be returning back to this spot to taste the rest of the menu!
