" This is a must-visit for anyone craving Puerto Rican cuisine! The flavors were spot on, bringing me back to my childhood meals. The ambiance is vibrant, creating a great environment to enjoy food with friends. Please do note, though, that it does get busy on weekends, so prepare for possible waits! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience! The food is bursting with flavor, and I can genuinely say it's the best Puerto Rican cuisine I've had outside of The Island! The atmosphere is welcoming, and the service staff is attentive. I’ll be recommending El Borimex to all my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited El Borimex with my family, and we all loved it! The flavors transported us straight to Puerto Rico. The empanadas were crispy and delicious, and the service was friendly. Just be advised that it can get busy and loud - not ideal for a quiet dinner, but perfect for a lively night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great find in Lorain! Authentic flavors that come through in every dish. The service was friendly, but I did have to wait quite a bit for my food. The atmosphere is casual, perfect for a laid-back evening with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited El Borimex during lunch hour. The food was decent, but I expected better given the reviews. I had the pernil which was alright, but the service was slow, and it feels more like a bar than a restaurant. I probably won’t go back for a sit-down meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely love this place! They have the best garlic shrimp I have ever tasted! The portions are generous and well worth the price. The only setback was the slow service, particularly on weekends. I’ll continue to come here for the food, as it makes up for the wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was quite disappointing. They were out of a lot of items, and it felt like the food wasn't freshly made. Service was inattentive, leaving us to wait far too long. The only bright spot was the ambiance which had a fun vibe. Still, not enough to draw me back again. " (*Curated Review*)
