La Peña Horeb Spanish Restaurant

La Peña Horeb is a Caribbean and Latin restaurant on Warwick Boulevard that cooks Dominican, Puerto Rican and Mexican dishes under one kitchen. The menu leans on mofongo, pernil, chuleta, pollo guisado, tostones, empanadas and a range of burritos, tacos and quesadillas, with flan and fresh-squeezed tropical juices for dessert. Reviewers often mention the chicken, the mofongo and the burritos, and the dining room has Caribbean flags and folk art on the walls.

You can order online for pickup or delivery, or call the restaurant at its Newport News number to ask about takeout. It also offers catering, reservations through its website, and a rewards program for online orders. Lunch and dinner are served Monday through Saturday, with shorter hours on Sunday. Food is made to order, so expect a short wait at busy times.
