    I have recently been to La Garita. The service is good. The Acapurrias were not cooked right and I am not sure if they were leftovers or freshly done. I enjoyed the white rice beans and tostones. I will say it is a bit hot in La Garita if you are waiting to get food picked up or wanting to eat there. I give La Garita 3 stars mostly due to atmosphere and food.

    I came here when I was returning to Haltom City from Fredericksburg, TX; to get lunch and continue my journey to home. They provide authentic Puertorrican food. I ordered the “Special of the Day” that was rice w beans, 2 pork chops, and a drink (only $9.99). Tasty food, really puertorrican flavors. The best is prices are affordable. The have “chuletas can can” in the menu so if you like fried pork choos; you should try it. If you are in Killeen area, stop there and you will not be disappointed.

    I visited this place and ordered takeout. From the moment I entered, the experience was excellent: cleanliness, service, food flavor, and speed. Because of this, I highly recommend them and give them 5 stars.
