After six days in San Juan, there was only one restaurant I really loved, so thank God we decided…read moreto venture out to Luquillo! We came with a group of 11, and they had a beautiful outdoor space that worked perfectly for our group. Service was attentive, and everything we tried was fresh.I ordered the grilled lobster with seafood in garlic sauce and tostones. It was delicious, although definitely pricey. The lobster is sold by the pound, and the smallest they had was about 1.5 lbs at $60+ per plate, so keep that in mind.Not pictured was my daughter's churrasco, which I had to try and WOW. I'm pretty sure it was entraña, and it was some of the best steak I had on the trip. For dessert, I had the coconut flan, and it was SO good. Definitely my favorite way to end the meal. Puerto Rico is expensive, and I'd consider this mid-level pricey, but compared to some of our meals in San Juan, this one felt worth it. If you're staying in San Juan, I'd recommend making the trip to Luquillo. This was easily my favorite meal of the trip!

The elote ribs were such a fun and satisfying appetizer, and the ceviche was incredibly fresh, packed with flavor, and had such a great variety of textures. The cocktails were amazing too. But the gnocchi!! My partner and I genuinely agreed it was the best gnocchi we've ever had - and that includes all the restaurants we've tried on the mainland. Absolutely incredible. Oh! And all while having a beautiful view of the ocean. Highly, highly recommend. It was the perfect way to end a day at the beach. And a special shoutout to Juan for taking such great care of us and making sure we had a wonderful experience!

Not going well for a Saturday night fine dining experience, right??? We were also told at that time we had to place appetizer and main orders at the same time -- keep in mind I've not yet placed a drink order... No seafood tower... it was retired on the menu yet we came almost 3,000 miles for it), and a fine dining menu that came super far from even being close to fine. No celiac options and while billed a great option for fresh inventive dishes, we found this place a huge let down and not willing to try. The front end staff needed a lot of help. The menu looks unrehearsed and neglected. I was glad to not spend my money here. Thankfully, we could leave before the $50 bottle of wine we ordered arrived. We went elsewhere!

Mango Fresca Sweet but very refreshing on a normal hot day. Compared to many of the fried-focused kiosks, this is a hands down winner if you're looking for quality food and service. That's all.

Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3 Cost to worth it rating: 4 (economical meals) Opentableable: no reservations Return worthiness: yes Eve award: best chicken "taco" Highlights: - Chicken "taco": imagine if an egg roll and a taquito had a baby. Bumpy fried texture outside fully enclosed with shredded chicken that was simple yet had enough flavor. Fave thing I had at the kiosks and made the list of foods during the trip. 5 stars - Chicken empanada: similar filling but in a crunchy empenada exteriod. 4.75 stars - Pork skewer: big chunks of meat cooked well and glazed with a mellow BBQ sauce. 4 stars - So many permanent spots to choose from--over 60--over a long stretch of road. I was envisioning a set of food trucks. - Family owned - So many options even within each place - Displays at most places with their offerings behind the glass or tall picture menus on display - Simple seating with tables - Also have alcholic drinks if you want: full bars in the kiosks and other spots with mojitos or pina coladas Midlights: - Alcapurrias specialty of the area but was too dense with the plantain exterior with some ground meat inside and not as much flavor for me. 3 stars - By the beach but not right on the beach--few parking lots over - Researching ahead of time may not be accurate--looked for plain items from my son some places were supposed to have but didn't see them there Lowlights: - Hard to choose since there are so many and not sure which are the best. I had ideas going in but went with what looked good and our driver recommended. - Limited parking so may be harder on a crowded day - About an hour drive from old town San Juan so a stop if you are venturing out to beaches

When we arrived, the main room was packed, and the few open tables were reserved. The host asked us if we'd be okay sitting in another room.

Special shoutout to our server! Unfortunately, I forget her name (it's been a month), but I remember she had this AMAZING makeup on, with lots of colorful beads in beautiful patterns across her face, as well as lovely hands with really fun nails and rings.
