“ Unmatched Quality, Quantity and Flavor at El Bohio Restaurant! I want to take a moment to recommend El Bohio Restaurant in Pleasantville to everyone, regardless of culture or race, because their service is truly world-class. I just picked up a catering of yellow rice with pigeon peas and perni for 15 people, and I am blown away by the quantity and quality of the food! We served ourselves three plates each, and we still have food left. Amazing! Let me tell you, I am more than satisfied. The presentation was impeccable; everything was packed in a hygienic and professional manner, which gave me great peace of mind. The aroma and flavor of each bite was simply delicious, a true delight for the senses. The juicy and perfectly seasoned pernil, along with the yellow rice with pigeon peas that was cooked to perfection, made this meal an unforgettable experience. My guests are delighted and I am more than grateful! If you are looking for a place where quality, taste and professionalism are the norm, El Bohio is the place to go.
