We hear about them on socials like most people. We came for the Pernil Kankan. To our surprise they…read moredidn't have it. We decided to eat her anyway. It was a somewhat bad decision. I will never let socials inspire me to anywhere. We waited one hour for our food. Yes one hour for our food. To be technical it was one hour and one minute. We set a mark to leave after one hour. There was absolutely no reason to take that long unless they were just slaughtering the pig and chicken. The food was hot and good but the experience was such a disappointment. It was a very expensive bad experience. Our server could not be worst if he intentionally tried to be worst. He was basically none existing. It's wasn't busy so I don't get what happened. We still tipped him. I tried to justify that it wasn't his fault. He was probably embarrassed hence the none existing service. The Resturant is smaller. In my opinion it's not for big groups. It was nice and clean. I probably wouldn't go back if they offered me free food. The food was good. It was hot and fresh etc. We came to PR hoping to get good food. We completely missed all the Marks. I think the best coffee was a food truck on a road.

Visited the "Son D Borikén" Restaurant in Old San Juan while our cruise port stop in Puerto Rico…read more Knew about it because we follow Chef / Owner Miguel Sanchez ("El Jibaro Moderno") on social media. The locale is convenient to the Port, very imaginative, novel, and particularly clean (counting the time and the number of customers in), yet small, but ... service was unbearably slow! The food is essentially Puerto Rican fare, really creative, tasty, ... although, it's quite pricy ($$$) ... VERY GOOD!! It's (almost) worth the wait! Comparing to other restaurants of its gender in The Old City, food quality is a tad better, but pricier. If you have the time to spare, it's a must visit.

The beans were flavorful & added the razzle dazzle to the white rice. The service was excellent as well! Our(party of 3) waiter was very attentive,friendly, & made sure we were good throughout our visit.It's always nice when the staff checks in on you! One of the highlights of the evening was the live salsa music & the singer really sang to my soul. His performance was so moving & heartfelt that I even cried (that's how beautiful his voice was). It's rare for a restaurant experience to leave that kind of emotional impact (but this 1 certainly did). Between the delish food,outstanding service,& unforgettable live entertainment this was an experience I won't forget. If you're looking for gr8 food & a lively atmosphere, this is the place to be!!!

The ceviche nachos had a generous portion of ceviche. The chips got soggy quickly, but the main star of the dish was the ceviche anyway which had a sweet tangy flavor. The sampler del mar is great to share and a nice way to sample a variety of apps. The shrimp mofongo was a popular dish at the table, and some people said it was the best mofongo they've had. The shrimp was extremely fresh with just the right amount of garlic, and the mofongo was not dry. What really stood out to me was the service. They did a great job taking care of such a large group and even let us almost an hour past closing time.

The quality of the food is high. They proportions are generous and the ingredients are fresh. The fish in the ceviche was tender and the avocado was ripe. My husband had the tacos. Their homemade salsa was spicy. The frappes are delicious. They are topped with real whipping cream.

Annie's Place is a Beachfront Restaurant located right at the entrance of Combate Beach, in the…read moreneighborhood of Combate, in the town of Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico. Annie's is tropical & spacious with indoor & outdoor dining on a spacious balcony deck overlooking the sand & sea. The staff is friendly & laidback & service is good. The food here is delicious with traditional & tasty items such as tender fried fish strips, fried white cheese cubes, mini Mofongo (mashed plantains served with broth). The drinks are good & they have a full bar. There's plenty of parking in any part of the neighborhood.

We are staying at the Hilton and this is located in the resort. The atmosphere is nothing special…read more The service was good. We ordered a few bottles of wine off of their extensive wine list, before finding one they actually had. I was so excited they had escargot on the menu, but it was extremely salty. Wouldn't order again. The Caesar salad was very good. I had the duck breast, which was excellent and my husband the red snapper, which he loved. We would go back if staying here again.

Best hidden (from myself) place on the north of PR. Located in road #2, close to exit 42 in the…read morehighway (#22). We got to this place by pure luck and we were even skeptical at first. We had a long wait, but it was worth every minute of it. The appetizers (sandwiches of ham, turkey, chorizo) were phenomenal. The meat (churrascos and rib eyes) were all prime cuts and cooked to perfection; juicy and flavorful. We were a party of 8 and we were all more than pleased and happy with the food and service. Easy 5 stars . By the way, the place is truly a bakery, but surpasses many named and even recognized or so called restaurants.

***THE BEST CUBAN SANDWICH!***…read more A typical Puerto Rican small town "cafetería", very casual, but cute and warm, with lots of wood decoration. They have a lot of wines, cheeses and specialty hams, very much like Spanish "cavas". They have bakery sweets and sandwiches, breakfasts and snacks like croquettes and such. But they make, hands down, the BEST Cuban sandwich I've ever had. Ask for "pan sobao" -- a slightly sweeter and softer kind of bread. Great coffee too! It's a little too far from San Juan, unless you're headed towards Arecibo to do some tourism, in which case, this is an excellent locals stop on your way. :-) Disclaimer: Please remember Puerto Rico is not big on Yelp yet, since it's small enough for any local to find restaurants, therefore business owners don't advertise a lot and locals have no real need for it. So you see just 1 rating and review here now, but don't be fooled. Compare with my Florida and California reviews if you feel unsure. :-) -----------------------------------En Puertorro, ahora---------------------------------- Yo estudié entre Vega Baja y Manatí, y paraba mucho aquí a comerme el sandwich Cubano, que lo hacen delicioso. Es una pena que esta cafetería-deli casi no tenga reseñas, porque en Puerto Rico todavía no le cogen el piso a lo de Yelp. Pero ciertamente no tiene una sola reseña porque no sea excelente. Me encanta también lo de los acentos en madera, tipo español, y las variedades de vino, quesos y jamón Serrano. :-)

This restaurant is Italian-American & has a very extensive menu of delicious items to choose from, such as steaks, burgers, pastas, soups, salads, desserts, signature cocktails, etc. The staff is very cordial & accommodating & service is as quick as can be depending how busy it is. The lighting inside is not too dark & enhances the rich wood of the many booths & tables against the neutral colored backdrop of the walls. It's a great place for families, birthday dinner celebrations & large groups. Very convenient if you're shopping at the Mall.

The restaurant has a wonderful view of Rio Grande and Luquillo and has a warm, romantic ambiance. They were apparently undergoing some renovations and only had the house wine at the moment so that's what we had. It was kind of weird, being at a cava, and not having any actual wine choices. The manager was very nice and apologized for it. We had the house salad and I ordered the chicken breast with arroz mamposteao and fried plantains. The chicken breast was pretty dry but the arroz mamposteao and tostones were delicious. The chocolate cake was moist and decadent. Overall, the experience was a little hit of miss. If I were around the area I would probably give them another try.
