Mini sandwiches with sad droopy melted cheese from the warmth of the room. Some sort of salty soup, lukewarm coleslaw. Nothing edible. Luckily they have a QR code where we could order some warm food. The menu never changes for this. Always arroz con candles, steamed frozen veggies from a bag, and tough chewy pork pieces claiming to be pernil. Oh they also have penne with Alfredo or penne with marinara. Sometimes the microwave doesn't work so they don't serve the food leaving u to wait in the extremely long lines outside to order fast food from the terminal. I will say a huge perk of this lounge is the booze. Endless Medalla lights make us happy campers as we kill some time.

The first part of the lounge we sat in was pretty warm, and we discovered the rest of the areas were pretty cool. We were near the room with a TV, and could feel cold air coming from that room. We found other seats after a while where it was much cooler. It was pretty busy the entire visit, and they seemed to keep the food relatively stocked. The "bar" area is self serve, which I like. The choices were limited to a few types of wine, hard liquors and most standard mixers. I didn't see the beer choices but I did see someone drinking one. The food choices were ok. We had swiss & red pesto finger sandwiches, pound cake and carnitas with rice. My favorite item was the espresso/coffee machine, and I enjoyed 2 beverages there. The main large seating area has a picture window looking out to the runway, and the plastic chairs there did not look comfortable at all. A smaller room has large seats that are more conducive to napping, and these were fine to sit in for over an hour. They also have a quiet room for sleeping, and a kids' room. Employees were always visible picking up dishware, and the restroom was clean but one stall had a broken lock. I would come here again if I ever return to the island.

Snacks are offered - peanuts, cheese fruit, cereals - breakfast time. There is a bar with liquor and self serve refrigerator with beer, soft drinks and water. There is also wine. And there is a coffee, tea, hot chocolate machine. The gals working the front desk are extremely nice. Several workers were continuously cleaning the already clean tables and seating areas. I am always happy to sit here before my flights rather than in the boarding areas of the airport.

They also have a good variety of soda and a decent coffee station. The lounge is small and crowded. We fought jut to find a table. When we came (2/1/26) the lounge was under construction and the bathroom was closed, so going to the bathroom meant going downstairs out to the terminal areas. The food selection was lackluster. Bowls of salads sitting out at room temperature, one container of soup, some pre made sandwiches and a few cakes over by the coffee table. The lounge at MCO is more impressive, and that's a statement!

They had a vegetable soup with next to no vegetables in the broth. Food and drinks are not self service and the woman serving the order counter was far from friendly. For ladies - it's also worth noting that their women's restroom had a huge gap of around 2-3 inches between the wall and the door offering next to no privacy while you are in the stall. I would recommend just waiting to use the restroom in the terminal. This lounge might be fine to have an a complimentary alcoholic beverage with your priority pass membership, however pretty unenjoyable beyond that.

The server Arnaldo was even coughing during the time I was there and at the same time licking his finger while counting the bills which is very unsanitary. I only went to this place as it is the only one open serving hot food nearby. What made it worse is that they spoke about me in Spanish assuming that I can't understand them. They served the people who clearly paid after me their food first as they were able to communicate in Spanish and questioned me when I pointed that out. Even the lady who ordered after me agreed with me but the server insisted on giving her the food that she ordered given the fact the we ordered the same thing. A piece or advice, just speak Spanish if you can. Or just go to another place.

The Reef Bar or should I say, The New Reef has the kind of vibe you dream of when visiting Puerto Rico. Not only do they serve traditional Puerto Rican Cuisine, but the restaurant has Outdoor seating with incredible Ocean views. Unfortunately, the view also includes the trash below. I think the restaurant would really benefit from having it cleaned. We only stopped by for appetizers, but wow what a treat. My husband and I shared an Octopus Salad and Arepas. I also had a Piña Colada and it was absolutely delicious. The prices here are also very reasonable and the service was great. This would have been a 5 star review, if it wasn't for the trash.

At first, the food was pretty okay. I got waited on and served relatively quickly. However, my darker skinned friends had to wait a longer time not just to order, but also to get their food. One of my darker skinned friends ordered three empanadas and only received two. When she tried to speak to one of the servers about getting her third empanada they refused. She said she was willing to pay for it, but they refused to serve her what she asked. Then, they said there's always a problem with "you people". Then all of a sudden they lied and said she was trying to scam them. As we're walking out, they start cursing at us and saying things like " I hope everyone except you (referring to my darker skinned friend) has a good day". The servers were overall very disrespectful, they cursed, and they were overly unprofessional. So even though the food was okay this was a horrible experience. As we were leaving, we saw two other darker skinned black women walk up to try and order. We told them about our experience and the servers started lying and saying that we are there every day and always causing problems. This was also untrue. That was the first time we've ever been to this restaurant. We walked a block down the street to wait for our car service. Then moments later, we bumped into the same dark skinned black women we saw earlier and they told us that their presence wasn't even acknowledged. So like I said even though the food was pretty okay. It wasn't good enough to be okay with the blatant colorism where it wasn't expected.

It's a teeny spot with only about 10 seats, so you may have to wait. We were lucky to go on a cloudy day and snagged a little table. Chicken wings, pulled pork tacos, and the pork stuffed tostones are all yummy. There's an herby green sauce on them that is out of this world. Fresh and bright. Mojito was good, I'd steer clear of the margarita (seems like a mix is used). The OceanLab IPA was local and yummy.

I had seen the reviews on yelp, but had no idea that we were staying in the same building. We asked a bartender at a hotel bar about EDL and quickly discovered we had walked past it on our way out of the condo earlier that evening. Let me start by saying that this place doesn't get going until midnight, which is normal for people like us who are from Miami...for others the hours may be a little tough. The owner/bartender Freddie is as hospitable as can be. We were welcomed into the small old fashioned bar right away. There was a mix of locals and folks like us from the states, but everyone fit in. We happened to arrive shortly before midnight on 2/13, and Freddie's birthday was on 2/14. Some of his friends had brought balloons and a birthday cake which he shared with us. It was an awesome way to experience our first night in PR! We went again on that Saturday and there was a 'real' birthday celebration going on! The bar itself is like stepping into a time machine. Freddie has pictures of his friends on the walls from years past. There are old poker and gaming machines around and an overwhelming feeling of nostalgia. And this is before the karaoke starts! He has a great list and books in English and Spanish. We are NOT good singers, but the locals coming to EDL could rival the best singers at any karaoke bar you've been to. It can be a bit intimidating! The drinks are nothing fancy, just good solid classics and a small beer selection. If you're staying in Isla Verde I highly recommend spending a late night here. It is in a gated condo, so the security guard or a resident must let you in.
