We felt a little underdressed in our hiking clothes, this would be a great place to dress up and have a dinner out. The service was amazing- and the food was 4/5. The empanadas were DELICIOUS- definitely the highlight of our lunch. The rest of the dishes were good- the fresh caught red snapper was deep fried- which took away the experience of it being fresh. Coconut Shrimp, Salmon, Mahi Mofungo, Seafood Paella were all good- not the best ever- but the whole experience was perfect.

My bf ordered the chicken mofongo which was lacking in flavor. The mofongo was mashed into larger pieces so it wasn't typical in comparison to other restaurants. I wouldn't recommend it.

Sitting outside facing the Atlantic Ocean with the cool ocean breeze was such a beautiful and peaceful experience. The views alone made the stop worthwhile, but I was pleased with the entire experience. The service was great from start to finish. For appetizers, I ordered the Chicharrones de Pollo, which were flavorful and crispy. I also tried one of the mozzarella sticks, but it didn't have that satisfying cheese pull I was hoping for. My man ordered the shrimp mofongo and really enjoyed it, while my brother-in-law was very happy with his snapper fish. For my entree, I chose the Mofongo Relleno de Pollo, a mashed plantain mofongo topped with chicken, and it was delicious. The portion was decent and packed with flavor. For dessert I tried the guava flan. While the flavor was nice, the texture was a bit too tough for my liking. Overall, the food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the oceanfront views were absolutely amazing. If you're passing by the area, Playa Brava is definitely worth stopping by for a meal and a chance to enjoy the scenery.

All fresh seafood in a garlic sauce that complimented the mofongo lovely. I tried some chicharron de pollo as well. Crispy hot and savory.

If you like meat, I would suggest you to get the Filete Mignon as it is only $2 more than the regular Angus Steak. The meat was perfectly cooked, I asked for Medium Rare and it was very juicy and tender. They are also very generous with the portion of the meat, my Filete Mignon was very thick (it's like double the thickness of Filete Mignon you would normally see at the store). I can promise you, you won't regret getting that choice, totally worth the money!!

The place was not full or busy at all and there were lots of wait staff around taking orders. We ordered a few appetizers and eventually our main course. We waited... and waited... and waited. One and a half hours later, after our waitress checked on the order several times, our order came along with the appetizers. She knew we were very disappointed and was very apologetic, but acknowledged that she had no idea what the kitchen was doing. The food: soggy queso frito, good sorullos and ham croquetas. The breaded shrimp was good. They got my lobster mofongo order wrong and gave me the wrong sauce. At that point we'd been waiting for over 1.5 hours for everything so I didn't care. The food was at room temperature, which was even more enraging. To top things off, we spoke to the manager to tell him about our experience, to which he asked "And what do you want me to do about it?" Well, taking off one of the appetizers or offering us a dessert on the house would have been nice considering people left and right were leaving the restaurant disgruntled. Maybe even an apology and a promise to do things better if we ever decide to join them again. The verdict: the place has been open only 2 months and, while it's in a great location and the surroundings are beautiful, I don't expect them to stay open without amping up their service and kitchen practices. I don't think I'll ever go out of my way to eat there again, which is sad because I really wanted to support a post-Maria local business.
