The service was good, our waiter greeted us quickly and took our drink order. I ordered a Barbados, it was actually very good. It was a rum drink with cinnamon and citrus juice. We ordered tacos, steak and spicy crab. The steak taco was overflowing with steak, it has a nice lime taste and the meat was tender. The spicy crab was a disappointment. It was also overflowing, but it was stuffed with imitation crab meat. I was thinking if you are on the sea you would get real crab meat. The waiter asked how we liked it and I said it should be labeled as fake crab. He was very gracious about it and wanted to offer me another type of taco. Overall, not sure how it got past three stars by other guests. Maybe I need to try other dishes.

We ordered the bacalaitos (codfish fritters) as an appetizer and the mofongo with shrimp (and another with pernil). The bacalaitos were perfectly fried, not greasy. The mofongo was the best mofongo I had in San Juan! It was full of flavor and the shrimp was the perfect compliment. My son housed their rice and beans. My husband ordered the tres leches cake. It was probably the best tres leches I've ever had. We'll definitely return next time we're in San Juan.

A very small restaurant with absolutely authentic Puerto Rican food with about 10 tables or so,…read moreabsolutely do not miss this place! So what do you get by coming here? You get the real deal, real Puerto Rican dishes, with the greatest flavors and fair prices. Unless you prefer playing overpriced, find dining restaurants with average Puerto Rican food, which there are plenty of in the area. I'm not able to emphasize how small this restaurant is, it's located right along the main walking strip in Coronado Beach. Maybe 10 tables or so. No reservations walk up wait in line if you have to eat and leave. Not only will you eat the best tasting food during your trip, but probably also pay the least amount of money. We went here twice! Their rice and beans recipe is probably what it's all about! We got grilled shrimp and skirt steak over rice and beans and honestly, I could've had it all week long! This little gem local place is not to be missed! Highly recommended!

Seriously? After waiting all that time, I finally got my food and the order was wrong. On top of that, the food was overly salty. Yo soy boricua, but does everyone on the island heavily salt their food? Because never in my life have I had white rice from a legit, authentic Puerto Rican restaurant that was that salty This place was honestly a one-and-done for me. After hearing people hype it up and claim it was one of the best, the experience was a major disappointment. I make this food daily so it ain't anything special to me lol I only came here because my gf wanted some hole in the wall type of food.

The ambiance is very beach and had club/lounge music, which was good and not too loud. This place was filled with locals on their lunch hour and tourists. The restaurant has a right on the beach so it's a great location for beach time and a nice lunch under shade. The food was good. Huge portions so definitely shareable. We ordered the creamy lobster bisque, pineapple rice with shrimp, a beef empanada, which was so yummy, the pork loin medallions stuff with ground beef picadillo, and a side of maduros. The lobster bisque was good but with noting that it's made with pimento cheese. It's more cheesy than creamy. Definitely recommend, can be pricey depending on what you get, so sharing is ideal. Enjoy!

Service was great as the wait staff were attentive and accommodating. As far as the ambience, it was pretty packed there was patrons joining their meals. Can't really remember if there was any music in the background. But it's a very nice restaurant.
