Casa Adela

This Puerto Rican restaurant is a true gem, offering an authentic taste of the island's flavors right in your neighborhood. With only six tables, this small restaurant can get pretty crowded. While there's no printed menu at the restaurant, you can easily find their offerings on Google. The roasted pork and octopus salad are standout dishes, prepared with precision and bursting with flavor. With over 44 years of experience, it's clear they've perfected their menu. The restaurant radiates a charmingly nostalgic vibe, reminiscent of 1980s Puerto Rico, complete with handwritten receipts and waiters calling out orders. The attentive staff is more than happy to guide you through the menu and ensure a memorable dining experience. Just remember to bring cash, as it's the only form of payment accepted here.
South Street Diner

This diner's open 24/7, making it an ideal choice for those craving an early breakfast. The maple pepper fried chicken Benedict is a must-try, and the Reuben sandwich is great too. The attentive service further enhanced the dining experience. It can get crowded in the mornings due to its small size. They accept credit cards, which is convenient.

Really good restaurant. Tends to be very crowded so reservation is recommended. They got a second floor (small stairs) but still is very crowded. Friendly staff and fast service. Average prices and big food portions. The seafood rice was great, really recommended. Credit cards accepted.
Benjamin Franklin Museum

Very interesting, informative and interactive museum. Lots of Benjamin Franklin life details that we didn’t know about. Is relatively small and you can view all items in about 45 minutes. Is very organized and clean. There is a $5 entrance fee. Half of the entrance doors didn’t work but everything else is in great condition. I went on a weekday morning and there was no line at all.

Lots of food options, specially sweets. There should be a bigger area for sitting down to eat, there is a lot of variety of food. Everything looks amazing, sure you will find something to eat. Also there is other type merchandise, like clothes, hard liquor, souvenirs, etc. Tends to be crowded. Even if you will not buy anything, you should visit and see by yourself.
