Borintojitos is a family-owned gem in Clarksville, inspired by Puerto Rican roots and the island’s rich culinary traditions. Founded to share an authentic taste of Puerto Rico, the restaurant channels the home-cooked meals and lively culture of old San Juan into every dish served. From the seasoned pork chops to the perfect balance of spices in each empanada, cooking here transcends business — it’s a heartfelt cultural expression.
Our kitchen recreates beloved island flavors such as crispy bacalaitos and sweet plantains, made from recipes passed down through generations. Serving lunch and dinner, Borintojitos operates Wednesday to Saturday, reflecting the rhythm of a true Puerto Rican kitchen. The welcoming environment, complete with classic Puerto Rican music, invites customers to feel like family. Located on Wilma Rudolph Blvd, we are proud to be a local landmark for island cuisine in Tennessee, offering a bridge between Clarksville’s diverse community and Puerto Rican culture. Each visit is more than a meal — it’s a connection to home and heritage, celebrated bite by bite.
