El Coqui

My other go-to place is El Coqui, a Puerto Rican restaurant in Santa Rose. It's located at 400 Mendocino Avenue.

I tried the Pollo Al Horno (their signature dish) for the first time--$16.50. I loved it. The chicken is so tender, it falls apart. It's served with rice, beans, avocado salad and plantains.

Picadillo with Scrambled Egg--$14.50 + $1.75 for the scrambled egg. This is what I usually get. Still love the beef sautéed with sofrito.
