    Crab salad

    Such a fun restaurant right on the beach. Beautiful spot during sunset. Has fun swings around the bar and great drinks. Service is very friendly and can accommodate any type of food allergy as well. Menus are in English and Spanish. Food is very fresh and worth the price

    Kristy. You tried it, girl! Unfortunately, when we arrived to the island, Kristy's was the only place in the area open early for breakfast. I ordered a smoothie, which was fine, and then huevos rancheros omlet, which was a disaster. The eggs were burnt and the omelet had about a pound of cheese on top. Who is eating that much cheese. It was all clumping together which just made it look even more gross. When the server came to ask if we wanted to-go plates because we clearly hadn't eaten, we told her we didn't like the food and there was literally no response.

    Spending a couple days on Vieques, we tried to visit as many places as possible. However, this place was so good that we came back two days in a row. It's super cute with outdoor seating steps from the ocean with all of the beach vibes you could possibly want. The service is out of this world. Everyone that works here was super friendly, gave excellent recommendations, and were some of the kindest people I've met in a restaurant setting. Everything that we tried was absolutely amazing. However, the burger is absolutely the star of the show. It was so good the first day, we all ordered it the second day. If you are on the island, this is a place to visit immediately!

    Loved this place! We ate there everyday while on island. They were fast and had great drinks, coffee, food, location, and people. Our first time we worried it would be a long wait, it was packed and people were waiting. As 4th on the list we were seated within 15 min. Service was also fast. We ordered a very spicy Bloody Mary and Tropical Hurricane. Both were amazing and they even got the spice level right for us on the Mary! We were torn on what to eat, we had seen a few bad reviews on one of our favs, Huevos Rancheros... but our server said this day they were served in a stuffed artichoke - oh it was so amazing - loved it! We also got a dragon fruit pancake - so thick and with just the right sweetness! On a different visit we got a huevos rancheros omelet and it was so good too. We also tried their lobster salad which was sold out at one point so we had to try it... it was made with vinegar almost like a salsa which was different but very good. A very casual place with bar and table seating, aside the road overlooking the ocean. We met I think every server that worked there, including owners Joe and Kristi, all with friendly great personalities. Can't wait to visit maybe next year!

    We landed in vieques and were looking to find some grub and some drinks and happened upon Kristy's and I'm so happy we did. Service was great and we got a few drinks each and also some food. To drink, I had their house made bloody mary and it was delicious (not too much horseradish which I appreciated) and slightly spicy. My friends all had mimosas with different juices; I think pineapple with oj was the fave but they were all really good. To eat, we decided to share the fat ass pancakes and my fiance and I also shared the tacos. The tacos were pretty good but the pancakes were a major wow! The presentation was really cool and we were informed we could get two different types so we did the reeses and strawberry shortcake. They were both really good. Overall, a great place to go.

    Great service and great views, right by the water. The Mimosas were excellent!! I tried the sammie sandwich and it was good but nothing memorable. It isnt run by Puerto Ricans (or didn't seem like it) however good vibes.

    Açaí bowl and coffee

    we stopped here for lunch/brunch they seated us pretty quick, We didn't wait no more than five minutes. The food was amazing and service was great. Definitely recommend! The açaí bowl was amazing! The pancakes were super fluffy and thick also recommend!

    The best breakfast on the island. Service was wonderful. Go watch the sunrise and then hop over to get some breakfast. We came on Christmas Eve and it was a long wait so we decided to wait and come a few days later right after watching the sun rise. Absolutely beautiful view and only a few other people there. Cannot visit Vieques without stopping here for breakfast.

    If you only got to have one meal on the island, come here! It's the best meal I have had! It's next to our lodging and I regretted not coming earlier but on our last morning here so I only got to try the arepa! The coconut arepa is interesting and delicious! The coconut coffee is refreshing! Went well with the arepa!

    Lobster salad stuffed avocado

    AMAZING atmosphere. The food and service were both top notch. Everything was fresh and delicious. We had everything from steak and eggs to big a$$ pancakes to stuffed avocado.

    Peanut butter açaí bowl

    Kristy's is the best breakfast in the Caribbean. We came here after a long travel day for breakfast. We waited about 20 minutes for a table which was the perfect amount of time to enjoy the ocean view. Our food was incredible, the servers were so incredibly kind. They have continued to say hi to us around the island!! Not pictured is the lobster stuffed avocado, which was amazing. This should definitely be your first stop when you arrive in Vieques

    food was great! Also Had the waffles and discada de pollo! Right by the beach with a nice view.

    This Place was great during our stay at Islas Vieques. We stayed at an air bnb close by so we could have walked over. Food: 5/5 We had the veggie omelette and breakfast sandwich and coffee to get our day started. Portions were filing and everything tasted home made. Service: 5/5 Our waitress was very attentive and checked on us a couple of times while we dined. Ambiance: 5/5 The views from the dining patio were great. It really made me feel like I was on vacation. The beaches are soooo beautiful with their turquoise and blue waters. I was surprised there was no Yelp page so I made this one cause we wanted breakfast and stumbled on it by mistake. This should be a breakfast staple as restaurants are scarce in the areas. Most places open later on in the day.

    Great place by the water to grab lunch or dinner!…read more We came for lunch and tried the empanadas. The vegetarian one was our favorite, and had great flavors! The ginger limeade was also very tasty, and we grabbed a bottle of it on our way out to enjoy the rest of the day! They even gave use cups of ice and lids/straws for the road, very helpful. Nice and laid back place, you order at the counter and then they bring out the food. No rush, nice to sit and relax and enjoy the view!

    Restaurante Bili is definitely a very popular restaurant, in a bustling part of town; and it tends…read moreto be busy each and every day (for dinner) that they are open!! So, I say all this to say - make sure to make a reservation if you'd like to avoid a long wait &/or disappointment with there not being a table available. We were extremely lucky to have gotten a table with a relatively short wait on a busy evening. Likely because it was within the last hour of the restaurant's opening!! Now - on to the best part... the FOOD! The creamy pumpkin soup with an arepa was really delicious!!! Full of flavour, prepared with passion and love and I would definitely go back for more! For our mains, my sister and I decided to both have the seasonal fresh caught fish with Puerto Rican yellow rice - YUMMMM! My only regret is that the fish was not big enough... I would have loved MORE! Overall this was a great dining experience.

    It is a disgrace that one of the very few well-known restaurants in the south side of Vieques…read morechooses to employ people who are clearly more interested in demanding tip money than in providing a respectful customer experience. Tonight I dined at La Placita with a group of friends, and the experience was absolutely unacceptable. Our waitress, an older white woman, brought the check to the table and then stood over us while we were trying to pay, refusing to give us even a moment of privacy to review and complete the payment comfortably. The second she saw the tip amount selected on the card machine, she aggressively grabbed the device from the table and said, "¿En serio?" ("Really?") -- ironically, the only Spanish she spoke to our table all night. It was an incredibly rude, humiliating, and uncomfortable moment. We were still leaving a tip based on the options provided on the machine; it was not as if we had entered an insulting amount ourselves. That interaction completely ruined our evening and changed my entire perception of the restaurant. I asked to speak with the manager, Katy, another white woman, and her response was just as disappointing. She was dismissive from the moment she arrived, repeatedly responding with "okay" while I explained what had happened, showing absolutely no concern for the situation. At the end, all she offered was a generic apology, with no accountability and no genuine interest in addressing the behavior of her employee. What makes this even more upsetting is that I travel to Puerto Rico frequently and have consistently experienced the warmth, kindness, and appreciation of local Puerto Ricans, who are grateful for any tip given. To encounter this level of entitlement was shocking. This waitress made us feel pressured and judged, as if we were obligated to leave the highest tip option available regardless of the quality of service we actually received. Tipping should be voluntary and based on the service provided, not something customers are intimidated into giving. Honestly, if this waitress cannot treat customers with basic respect unless they leave the tip amount she expects, then she should not be working in a position where her paycheck depends on gratuities. Someone with that attitude toward customers belongs in a job with a fixed payroll salary somewhere else, not in hospitality. A server who openly shows anger and resentment over a tip has no business working in customer service. This was one of the most uncomfortable restaurant experiences I have had in Puerto Rico, and it is truly shameful that a place with such a good reputation would allow customers to be treated with this level of disrespect.
