The guacamole and plantain chips were so unique and good! Thin and super crispy plantain chips. I had the carne asada tacos and my partner had the chicken Tinga. Both were flavorful and had a nice dipping sauce. Our waiter was super attentive and they have a wide variety of drinks! Will return for their happy hour. read more

My partner and I went to Guarapo Latin Fusion on a Tuesday night for a casual but special date night and it absolutely delivered. The vibe was relaxed but lively, with great music and friendly service that made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. We started with the croquettes and WOW, they were crispy on the outside and flavorful on the inside. I've never had croquettes filled with oxtail! Easily some of the best I've had in Brooklyn. I ordered the bandeja paisa, and it was perfection. Everything on the plate, from the chicharrón to the plantains, was seasoned and cooked just right. Comfort food done right, and super satisfying. To drink, I had a frozen passionfruit margarita, which was dangerously good. It was tangy, icy, and just the right amount of sweet. My date went with the Hennessy mojito, and it was incredibly smooth and refreshing. We were both impressed by how balanced and creative the cocktails were. My date also had the camarones al ajillo, and we both kept stealing bites from the plate. The garlic sauce was rich without being too heavy, and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. Lastly, for dessert we shared the churros, which were out of this world! We left full and happy, already planning to come back. Definitely recommend this spot for anyone looking for flavorful Latin fusion food, strong drinks, and a great night out...even on a Tuesday. read more

This place actually surprised. I went here for a friend's birthday and enjoyed the experience. I usually had negative experiences with the food for places that place an emphasis on having photo walls but the food here was actually really good. They gave a really good portion size as well. The drinks were strong but not really there taste wise. The servers were are nice and attended to us all night. Then the vibe there was also good too. They had a bartender there singing on the mic along with the songs but it wasn't that obnoxious singing you hear at some places. I would def recommend trying if you are looking for a lowkey spot in the neighborhood. read more

We didn't make reservations and just walked in since it was a Wednesday night. It was a nice atmosphere with the layout of the place that was decorated vibrantly. There's plenty of seating upstairs and downstairs. There are televisions by the bar playing different channels, so if you want anything in particular, just let them know. Service wise, there was one lady doing everything, and she was managing it very well. We gave her a nice tip bc of her hard work. Food wise, I did enjoy the guacamole with plantain and yucca chips. I enjoyed it a lot and finished the chips, plus the waitress was nice enough to bring out more since we had extra guacamole for no charge. I had the Pulpo a la parrilla since I wanted something light and not so heavy to eat. It was good. Last but not least, I had the three leches de mango cake. That was just alright, but the other two dishes were great. They have a happy hour menu, which gives you a better deal for the buck. For brunch, there's an ayc drink. I suggest if you want different types or crowds to try those out. . read more

Stopped by without a reservation and was able to be seated quickly. Party of 4. The food and drinks were delicious! Definitely Latin fusion - there's Puerto Rican, Colombian, Peruvian food. Appetizers - the croquettas with oxtail, amazing! A highlight. Main- all the dishes were delicious and savory. Good portions. Dessert- the tres leches was disappointing. The cake was grainy I'm not sure why. Despite that everything else was great. Service was attentive and kind. read more

We were in the area around 5pm looking for a good happy hour. My boyfriend found this place, HH looked great, so we popped in! We wanted some food (there were HH food options, available for bar seating only) so he sat at the bar. We promptly ordered the red and white sangrias for $7 each, along with the Alcapurias and Chicharrons de Pollo for $10 each. He's Puerto Rican, so I let him order. Everything was delicious! Very hot, very fresh, including the drinks. The Chicharrones de Pollo fell off the bone better than any chicken wing I've had. I'm not sure what the cut of meat was but whew, so good. The Alcapurias were stuffed full of meat and came with a delicious jalapeno ranch-like sauce, as did the chicken, although it wasn't needed for the latter. We're looking forward to coming back for more food! Major plus: we were gunna go to a bar to watch some soccer after, but they had the games on here. Great to know for future reference! A quick final note - we were charged a 3% non-cash fee on our final bill, which wasn't reflected on any of the menus as mandated by the NY state law. It was only noted on the bottom of our receipt, and "cash" means debit as well, according to the state. Disappointed we were still charged extra even though we paid debit. read more

My 2nd time coming here, but it's been a few years. I was a little disappointed they changed the decor with the coqui and big PR flag, but it's still pretty. Attentive service, large portions and good music. Didn't like that they have a photographer walked around. It isn't a theme park or a touristy spot like Margaritaville. read more

Great place to take a special someone. Parking is sketchy but her ,,, it's Brooklyn lol. The minute I walked in all my receptors were going off the house walk to the end, and we had a choice of sitting upstairs or downstairs. I chose up because I wanted to look down and be nosy lol. We had red sangria, which was delicious and it hit the spot. After that we ordered the Empanadas, & pork guacamole, big chunks of pork if you're into pork definitely recommended thinly sliced fried plantain chips to dip then we ordered our entrée. I had the miso glaze salmon Churrasco steak, which was delicious. The tip is included, so make sure you don't re-tip and the service was quick and the food was delicious. I'm definitely gonna go back. read more

SO DISAPPOINTING! It has so much potential! The place is nice. Went on a Saturday night. Group of ten... it wasn't packed but you can tell the waitress was overwhelmed. Drinks were very weak... tasted like juice. I didn't even bother ordering a second drink. Apps were ok. Ordered a churrasco and everyone agreed it was tasteless. They gave us free shots only gave out 6 but there were 10 Of us.They have a "DJ" (if you could even call him that) who seemed to only sing karaoke. He wasn't good at all. They need new management! read more

If you're looking for a filling meal, no need to look any further. Guarapo's brunch has you covered! The amount of food you're provided is ridiculous. They offer a bottomless option of red/white sangria, Bellini, or mimosas. Not only do you get bottomless drinks they also give you a shareable appetizer platter of fried chicken, fried calamari, fried pork, 2 types of empanadas and a potato pastry followed by your entrée. All of that for a pre-fixed price of $40!!! The decor is Puerto Rican themed and they have the cutest dj, DJ Conchi Classico (the legend) playing Spanish music. I had a good time and left stuffed! I've been there 2 weekends in a row. read more

What a Rip off this place is a scam & over priced... complete Happy Hour Scam. I came here for my son's birthday party. We had a deal from Yelp that I couldn't use plus they charged me full price on happy Hour Drinks and they not only charge gratuity but they also charge a service fee??!? For what reason? Waitress was annoyed from the beginning and refused to refund for drinks that were charged for double the price than happy hour. She offered drinks to go but they were weak as other reviews mentioned and the fact that she was rude about the whole situation made this experience horrible.... Specially since we were celebrating my son's 18th birthday. Would not recommend this restaurant to anyone! read more

I went to Guarapo in Saturday August 10, I was pleasantly surprise. They food is delicious. The cocktails are fantastic. I recommend Coco Loco, due to it favor and nutrition value of coconut for those people suffering of gastritis. I recommend to take anyone there to show pride in a latin restaurant. read more

Everything was amazing!! From service to the food. The staff here were welcoming. I enjoyed the Rabo Encendido with Arroz con Gandules and Maduros. The croquetas de Yuca con Rabo was a huge winner for me !! The seating arrangements were super comfortable and not crammed. The ambiance of this restaurant was definitely one you could never forget, the live DJ playi all the hits we grew up listening to. I definitely had so much pride as a Latina from a now gentrified Brooklyn to be able to sit in a restaurant as this to enjoy what we call HOME. Definitely coming back again for a 3rd time. read more

It was my birthday!!! My friend recommended this place for my special day. When we arrived the live salsa band was playing and it was very lively. We were happy to be seated rather quickly upstairs. The crowd was very nice and the vibe. Now let's get to the food! We had the Sancocho soup and alcapurrias to start. I was very pleased the smell alone took me to my mothers kitchen. I ordered the garlic shrimp with rice and beans which was very very good. The portions are good as well. The servers were very nice and attentive. People were dancing and it was a very nice time. I would definitely go back and I do suggest you check it out. One more thing the drinks were so yummy and strong! Looking forward to another visit real soon. I'm sure summer time is super fun there!!! read more

My friend and I went in here because it's advertised as a sports bar and we wanted to watch the Mets-Dodgers game. There were 5 TVs above the bar: 4 of them were showing the same Knicks-Pacers game and 1 of them was showing the Spotify playlist. There were about 6 total patrons in the bar. We asked the bartender if she would mind putting the Mets-Dodgers game on one of the TVs and, to our surprise, she gave us a flat out no. No apology or reason, just no. We left feeling annoyed and this bar lost two paying customers on a slow night. Now we are watching the game on my friend's phone at the German beer hall down the street. At least we feel wanted here! read more

July 17 2022 Brunch My husband and I went in for brunch around 12:30pm. We were greeted by our server. I asked if we could sit outside. She said no. She said she had a birthday party reservation upstairs and it would be easier for her to have us sit up there with the party. I didn't understand this considering 1.The kitchen is downstairs 2. It was just my husband and I and the party (10 people) upstairs. Other than that the place was empty. We obliged. We were sat upstairs. The music was super loud, it just didn't make sense for a Sunday morning in an empty restaurant. We planned to get the brunch special which includes an appetizer spread/bottomless mimosas/entree. We've had the special before so we were pretty much ready to order. Since she was the only server at the time, we knew service would be slower than usual, so we gave her time to make drinks, and serve her large party before we ordered. My husband starts to order his dish (chicken burrito) and she stops him and says "the appetizer comes out first so ill only put that in for now" What? Anyways 20 mins later in a second server clocks in and poses behind the bar staring into space for 10 mins playing with her hair. Still waiting for my Bellinis. By this time I just feel like we are just hanging out with the staff. Our drinks come and she made mimosas instead of Bellinis. It was super hot upstairs so I insisted we sit were we wanted to initially. We switched tables. Sudden relief. Downstairs our appetizer platter arrives hot and fresh. At this point I remind my husband that we still haven't ordered our entrees yet. We've already been there an hour. We flagged down the second waitress and she put in our food. We ordered a pitcher of Bellini because at this point we are hardly seeing our server and we want to drink. My husband hardly touched his mimosa, and I was almost finished with mine. Our server comes, takes my glass, pours MY remaining mimosa into my husbands glass and uses that glass to pour my Bellini in. She didn't even ask my husband if he was finished with his drink. Why did she do that? Just bring new champagne flutes. That was a turn off. I'm not sure what happened here, but our latest experience was less than enjoyable. I didn't lowball the rating cause whoever the chef is, they are excellent at what they do. My churrasco was cooked perfectly (medium) and the beans were to die for. Thanks chef. Ive worked hospitality for over 10 years, I think this shift needs more organization. Your opening server was all over the place and it made our latest visit nothing to brag about. She made her job harder by trying to work faster instead of smarter. There wasn't more than 12 guests and two tables. Have a meeting. Communicate. Edited for spelling. read more

The food is absolutely delicious. One of the best mofongos I've had. I didn't love the arroz con gandules, it is made with bacon which is not typical. It's hard to find parking but worth the aggravation. The coco loco was super yummy! The playa azul was strong but good. read more
