    Family time in Juana Diaz, PR. I order Gotas y Espuelas...wow..so delicious..! The best menu and sabrosa variedad the platos ever. We received the best service by Jorge. The meat was cook to perfection, everything on the plate was so yummy. Drinks seems to be with infinitive variety, and the new beer from PR called: Boqueron with a fantastic taste, better than all..! If you are in PR you must go and eat here..! Gracias and God blessed you...

    Visited El Rancho after a day of tourism and it was the perfect ending to my evening. Our waitress was extremely friendly. She consistently asked if we were fine. The food was amazing. By far the best I have had in Ponce which needs more dining options like it. I had the churrasco and it was so tender and flavorful I couldn't stop eating it. My families dinner was just as tasty everyone was equally satisfied. The drinks were good as well, I had the coconut mojito, which wasn't overly sweet compared to others I tasted. This will definitely be a must revisit next time I visit.

    If you're looking for the best asopao on the island... your search stops here…read more I've never had something like this before. The flavor was ridiculous in the best way possible, the shrimp was perfectly cooked, and the tostones were notably fresh. 10/10- you MUST go. Out of all of the gumbo variations I've had from countless regions, Puerto Rico's is my favorite. Particularly from La Cueva Del Mar. Our server, Nicole, was an angel. She is SO SWEET. She made the experience even better!!! It was packed and very loud at 7pm on a Thursday, which is a nonissue for me, but if your party prefers a quiet meal, be mindful of timing.

    The good: Convenient location, valet parking, lively but not overwhelming environment, good music,…read moreand good drinks which is a plus. Food is usually good. The Meh: I liked this Cueva del mar in calle loiza but this experience was subpar. Prior to even ordering, I asked if their famous fish tacos would have the same coleslaw with their special sauce intermixed like it's been since 2007, but in recent visit on Dec 2025 was not the same. He stated he understood. When it arrived, the cole slaw was dry, not the same famous fish tacos i've been used to for years unfortunately. It was unnecessary for the waiter (male in his 50s with black ivy cap) to insist to try to prove me wrong stating that "it's always been this way and i've worked here for 15 years" when my mother and i have had these fish tacos since it opened originally in guaynabo circa ~2007. Mind you, i am bilingual and overheard the waiter talking to the kitchen. Their solution was to bring sauce on the side. My partner ate 1 fish taco, I ate none. When we left the establishment, the waiter went outside to stop my fiance. The waiter never approached me to apologize directly por el mal rato. I also found it extremely distasteful to have to overhear an employee (brunette) on her break (or otherwise) with her foul language near our toddler. We'll just have to stick to another location that treats customers better.
