For years, we had only gone to one place on the island, believing it was the only option. Admittedly, I used to think it was the best they had to offer, but that opinion has since changed. My husband heard about LLAMAS and suggested we try it. When he mentioned it was Cajun boils, I immediately agreed. We decided to get it to-go so we could enjoy it at home without worrying about the mess--Cajun boils can be quite messy! When he returned to the truck with a huge tray of food, the aroma filled the air, I couldn't wait to get home. When we finally opened the sealed tray at home, the delicious smell filled the house. I was amazed at the generous portions and the variety of seafood, along with halved potatoes, corn, and even boiled eggs. The herbs and spices used in the boil were exceptional! Unlike other places on the island that drench their boils in buttery oil with minimal seasoning, this featured a perfect blend of herbs and spices that complemented the dish beautifully. It was so flavorful that I wanted to grab bread, dip it into the seasonings, and savor every bite. What makes this even impressive is that it's a truck! I'm unsure how long it's been on the island, but I am almost embarrassed that I hadn't tried it sooner.

Here's what we saw: From the outside the restaurant looks good with a dog friendly patio and decent parking around the side of the building. The inside is clean and well maintained with a few TVs to catch games. We sat outside since we had our dog with us and our server was fantastic. He had a lot of jokes, knew when to give us space, and was just incredibly attentive all around. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ran out. The food was very mediocre, granted they just started serving breakfast recently so they're probably trying to work the kinks out. We ordered the pancake breakfast with breakfast potatoes, bacon, and Texas toast as well as the chillaquiles with beef fajita. The pancakes were very thin and chewy, definitely not a high quality batter and not moist. The bacon likewise was chewy and the toast was, well, toast. The best part of the dish were the breakfast potatoes which had a good texture and flavor to them. As for the chillaquiles, it was decent. A bit of a messy plate but nothing that took away from the meal. The beans, tortilla chips, etc were good but the best part was the beef fajita, seasoned well and pretty juicy. Again, it's hard to write this place off as a 3 star because we think they're a work in progress on the breakfast side and likely have better food on other parts of the menu, we can just only write about our experience. Service was phenomenal, that cannot be understated. Likely a place we will try again if ever back in SPI and hopefully we can rate higher next time!
