The restaurant at Hotel Confresi has one of the best views around, truly unbeatable and the main…read morereason I've been back a few times. Sitting right by the water with the waves splashing up at you is epic, especially around sunset. The setting alone feels like it should be an unforgettable dining experience. Unfortunately, the service has consistently been unfriendly and unwelcoming, which really takes away from the atmosphere. The food has been marginal at best--fine, but not memorable, and not quite what you'd expect given the location and potential of the space. It's worth stopping by for the view (and the waves) alone, but I wouldn't come here specifically for the food or service. With friendlier staff and better food, this place could be something really special.

Over the course of my stay, I ate here many times with my family. Meals came with tasty garlic…read morebread and a small refreshing house salad. I divided up the food reviews by meal category. Breakfast Omelette- was great. I had tomato, onions, no peppers, and bacon. You can choose from adding bacon or ham. Decent but not mind blowing. Pancakes- you get multiple pancakes in the stack. They were nice and fluffy. I did wish there was some more whipped cream on the plate, which are the dollops next to it in my picture. It came with a little plastic container of syrup. Spanish omelette- had like 0 eggs in it, I expected an omelette with potatoes but it was just potatos and tortilla. Not bad just not expected. Appetizers and sides Potatoes- good Mofongo- pretty good. A little dry but I think it maybe is supposed to be like that. Great with the chicken and rice stew. Bean soup- the rice was salted, which I did not know. I put the rice in the soup to tone down the salt, but I accidentally made it even saltier. The only appetizer I would not get again if they continue to salt the rice. Beans and rice- good Lunch and dinner meals Red snapper - good, came with a side of your choice. I chose beans and rice. Rice was good and fluffy. The beans were tasty. The snapper came with a rich sauce and some vegetables. Fish Tacos- very good. I enjoyed this very much with a green local hot sauce that came if you asked for hot sauce. I would get this again if I came back. This was on the bar menu I think. Nachos- came in a big portion. Very large and good. Salad- ok. Rice and chicken stew- good. Tasted very homey and comforting like something grandma would make. There were chicken bones that you have to watch out for though. Pasta primavera- based on googling primavera pasta beforehand, I was expecting a light pasta entree, but this was smothered in butter and cheese, which was very heavy and not at all what I expected. It was tasty though, but very rich. Drinks Strawberry frappe- (non alcoholic version) tasted like an elevated slushie. It tasted like it was made from a strawberry syrup instead of fresh strawberries. Pina colada- (non alcoholic version) a good pina colada.

i've never waited this long for food while being completely ignored by a server. we waited over an…read morehour and the only time our table was acknowledged was when our bread was brought out. meanwhile, we watched larger parties get served before us and even saw people who arrived after us finish their meals. after waiting an hour and 45 minutes, we finally gave up and asked to pay for what little we had -- bottled water, soda, and bread. i understand places can be short staffed, but that should be communicated upfront so customers can decide if they want to stay. as soon as we were paying for what little we got, our food suddenly came out, and it felt like they just expected us to accept it and be happy after all that waiting. when we brought everything up, there was no real effort to make it right, which made the whole experience even more frustrating. overall, it just felt like our time was completely wasted. nunca había esperado tanto por comida mientras el mesero nos ignoraba. esperamos más de una hora y la única vez que se acercaron a nuestra mesa fue para traer el pan. mientras tanto, vimos cómo atendían a mesas más grandes antes que a nosotros e incluso vimos a personas que llegaron después terminar sus comidas. después de esperar una hora y 45 minutos, decidimos rendirnos y pedir la cuenta por lo poco que habíamos recibido: agua embotellada, refresco y pan. entiendo que pueden estar cortos de personal, pero eso debería comunicarse desde el principio para que los clientes decidan si quieren quedarse. justo cuando estábamos pagando por lo poco que recibimos, salió nuestra comida, y parecía que simplemente esperaban que la aceptáramos y estuviéramos contentos después de tanta espera. cuando expresamos nuestra molestia, no hubo ningún esfuerzo real por solucionar la situación, lo que hizo la experiencia aún más frustrante. en general, sentimos que nuestro tiempo fue completamente desperdiciado.
