    The dorado place is now almost as bad as the San Juan place. The fish keeps getting smaller and the tortillas suck.

    This place is kinda spartan, first-come, outside , but mostly under a covering, tables. It is among…read morefast food restaurant chains in this hood, but this is an interesting original. We waved as we walked in to a waiter, pointed to a seemingly available picnic table, and he waved that we were good to go, so we sat right away, at 7:45p...after that more tables opened up. Drinks: 1. Pina colada - no bueno...like a coconut ice, not pina colada. 2. Passion fruit juice with fresh mint - delicious! 3. Cherry juice drink with alcohol - wife liked it, and I thought it was good. Appetizers: 1. Beef empanadas- I thought the crust overpowered the meat and onion, but daughter and wife loved it. 2. Nachos - terrible. Chips were stale and cheese/beans covering was bare, but then they gave us additional refried beans in a little cup, and straight I thought the refried beans were delicious. 3. Baha fish tacos - phenomenal!!! Entrees: 1 Chicken fajitas: disappointing. The spicing was off, on the chicken, and the guacamole was mostly sour cream. 2. Steak fajitas: very good and way better than the chicken Service was quick and the staff knew their stuff, but it took a long time to get the bill because other tables came in.

    The atmosphere is really great with chill, welcoming vibes. Service staff is friendly and…read moreattentive. The Baja fish tacos are amazing. Fresh and crispy, delightful. Get them.

    My Husband and I are in Puerto Rico to celebrate our 40th anniversary…read more Besides Puerto Rican food we decided to try TomatePR because we love Mexican and the reviews were great. We were married in Zihuataneho Mexico, were spoiled with good Mexican food living in Chicago, and find after moving outside Nashville, we have craved better Mexican food, so we came here. Gina came to our table to make sure all was OK with wait staff, and food we were eating. Well, it was MORE than OK! Food was wonderful, made fresh, and all questions and requests were answered. She did make us feel like "old friends", and after a long incredible dinner, she offed us 2 tequila shots, and played our "special married song" for our special anniversary. We both had tears in our eyes as that was so special. She took photos for Facebook (but we do not belong) so we are hoping she texts them to my husband who gave her our number. Thank you Gina, all the people who took care of us. Please go there for an excellent meal, margaritas, and the best service. We are going to try to go back before this vacation ends. G&B

    Had dinner here on my first night in Puerto Rico. I had the Carne Asada tacos with flour tortillas…read more My husband had the chicken fajitas and then we got the shots flight. The tacos were very good not very filling. If you are super hungry, you definitely need a side or an appetizer along with them. The salsa was very flavorful and had a nice kick. My husband enjoyed his fajitas. I tasted a piece of the chicken and it wasn't really bursting with flavor but still good. About halfway through our meal live music started to play. It was a little loud, but not too loud that we couldn't hear each other talking. Cute environment waitress was really friendly. It's somewhere I would revisit and recommend.

    We came here for a late lunch on a Thursday. There were 9 of us (including two small children), and…read moreit was between the lunch and dinner hours so it was not busy. We were brought chips and salsa to munch on while we perused the menu. The chips were stale and definitely not fresh. I liked the salsa, but just a heads up that it's a bit spicy. The food was great other than this. Three of our party had the Tri-Juana which was a taco, burrito, and enchilada. I was told the taco shell was stale, but it was otherwise good. Three of our party had soup (I didn't get any pictures), and they said it was really good. I had the Chicken Enchiladas with Mole Poblano sauce. I thought this was incredible. The flavor was rich, and the shredded chicken was cooked just right. It came with rice and refried beans which were also delicious. Most of us had margaritas as well. Their margarita menu is huge. I had the Caribbean Rita was refreshing and hit the spot perfectly. I would definitely have this one again. The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 was because even though our server was very friendly, the service was incredibly slow. We'd been there for 30 minutes before we even ordered our drinks and food. Our server was visibly busy managing many other tables. I imagine the other servers had been cut due to the time of day, but it was frustrating. (That and the stale chips). The ambiance was nice, and the location right inside the mall, close to the airport, was ideal. I would definitely go back, but I would want to try another time of day to see if the negative factors from today would be better.

    Both the food and the drinks were delicious. The atmosphere is really enjoyable. Our server,…read moreFrancisco, took great care of us, his recommendations for both food and drinks, along with his friendly approach, made our dinner even more enjoyable. My only criticism is that the restroom was quite dirty. If they pay more attention to that, they definitely deserve 5 stars!

We came in in between lunch and dinner so it was just us and we sat outside on their patio. They give you chips and this lovely salsa, which was absolutely delightful. I decided to have their pineapple margarita bc vacation, and I was pleasantly surprised. I wasn't expected to be blown away but it was indeed a very good margarita. Then for our meals we obviously got burritos. I got the barbacoa burrito and my partner got the chicken burrito. These are hefty burritos that have the usual fixings of a burrito inside plus french fries. What a nice add. We both really enjoyed our burritos and had leftovers to take back and enjoy later. It got crowded quickly once dinnertime hit. This is a great little spot to stop in if you're hungry and need a guaranteed good meal.
