    Salmon with Mashed Malanga
    Lisa G.

    We arrived for dinner and drinks and were immediately enveloped in a warm, swanky, jazzy nook with live music and a sultry ambiance. We had the pleasure of being taken care of by Angelita and she made our delight her mission!! We began our meal with a bottle of The Fableist Cabernet Sauvignon, a beautiful full-bodied, but seemingly light, wine with vibrant, fruity notes of black currant and a hint of smoky oak. We then ordered the Crab Cassava Cake and the Vegan Ceviche appetizers The Vegan Ceviche was a refreshing medley of bright and fresh vegetables in a light lemon broth with a super tasty Breadfruit Fritter. The Crab Cassava Cake was an absolute SHOW STOPPER!!! The crab stew was bursting with true Puerto Rican "Criolla" flavor and was exquisitely complimented by a luscious and light cassava cake infused with tart, creamy goat cheese As a person who has never had a traditional crab cake due to a serious aversion to mayo, I was so stoked to try this version and it was absolutely worth the wait!! For our entrees, we selected the Grilled Salmon and the Chulekan. The salmon was perfectly cooked and served with asparagus and a hearty and delicious mashed Malanga (taro). The Chulekan is a traditional grilled pork chop preparation and Costa Azul has it perfected!!! The generous portion was incredibly flavorful and moist and topped amazing "mamposteo" style rice and beans. Both of our delectable meals were devoured with gusto! Overall, Costa Azul delivers on flavor, vibes and innovation and is a definite DO NOT MISS if you are in the Isla Verde/Carolina area!!!

    Vegan ceviche

    The friendly and welcoming staff was first thing I noticed about this restaurant. I didn't catch my servers name but she was so sweet and so attentive to me. I ordered the vegan ceviche, it was so good! For my entree I got the Caribbean mofongo and was not disappointed. The portions are huge! I could have easily shared this dish. I can definitely see myself stopping at this spot next time I'm visiting PR.

    Cafe Flan

    The food was delicious! Service was also great, the waiters were all very attentive and had some good recommendations. Mixed ceviche was impeccable, crispy skin on the salmon was out of this world!

    From NYC to PR for Valentine's Day the food was amazing. Let's start with the bread which was so soft with a garlic butter with paprika to give it a little kick. I had the seafood Mofongo it was so delicious one of the best I had it wasn't dry and was a lot of food to much food. The service was great the ladies was happy with the meals. The ambiance was delightful very nice set up. The lights was dim with a live band. Best place we had thus far!!

    Despite arriving 30 minutes late due to heavy traffic, the kind staff at the restaurant were able to save our reservation. They were also very thorough in explaining the menu options, which included special dishes for Valentine's Day. Whether you're looking for a romantic dinner or a group dinner, this restaurant has something for everyone. Additionally, the beautiful art displayed in the restaurant adds to the overall atmosphere. The food was good with good portion sizes. $$

    Grilled octopus appetizer
    Edward M.

    EVERYTHING was excellent! We were celebrating a loved ones birthday on a Sunday evening and they accommodated our large party and even as their saxophone player to come work on a night where he's typically off. The appetizers were amazing. Check out the octopus. The entrées were amazing. Service was amazing. That bill was amazing. but I think for 29 people $3000 is actually pretty good. Including cocktails.

    Mofongo de Pollo

    We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance, and I'm so glad we did! Now, I can't help but recommend it to anyone visiting Puerto Rico. Our server was fantastic! They took the time to explain the menu and suggested a few delicious dishes. We went with the Mofongo de Pollo, and let me tell you it was the best dish we had during our trip! They even gave us some extra cheese béchamel sauce to try, which was a delightful touch. The flavors were just incredible! We also tried a soup that had such a refreshing, homey feel, along with a salmon filet, rice, and beans. It's a place we'll definitely be coming back to for more of those amazing flavors!

    Inside

    This is such a beautiful place. The aesthetics are top notch, the food and service are on a whole different level. Alexis our waiter was very knowledgeable about both the food and drinks and had the best recommendations. My family and I absolutely loved the food here. The lobster ravioli is probs the best I have ever had. I look forward to coming again next time in PR.

    Mixed salmon ceviche

    Wow, I never leave reviews but I couldn't NOT leave a review for this amazing hidden gem. From the service to the food everything could not have been more perfect. Angelica and Aileen took excellent care of us. The atmosphere was swanky and trendy and although not busy at all (sadly!) the ambiance was amazing because it felt like we had the whole restaurant to ourselves. We had been looking for good seafood our entire stay in Puerto Rico and we finally found it at Costa Azul. The mixed seafood ceviche was to die for! So incredibly fresh and flavorful. And the prawns with the surf and turf were ginormous with a delicious sauce. Could not recommend this place more, kinda off the beaten path but totally worth the trip.
