    Traveled to cayey for a work trip and ended up reserving this hotel for a couple of weeks. The…read moreeatery here is pretty good. Service is great. Waiters are trying to compensate even though it is slightly busy in certain time. Their breakfasts are usually 20 dollars but you can prepaid and make it to 15 (vouchers). Dinner and lunch have the same menu. They have live music on weekends and Friday. Their drink menu is huge too since the drinking culture is dominant here. Food itself is a mixture of American and puerto Rican influence as you can imagine. They are on the pricer side for sure but you will definitely be full. Overall 9/10. Tldr: good vibe, good decor, food is slightly saltier, attentive waiters.

    Terrible (lack of) service!!!!! The first time (Sunday,…read moreAugust 9, 2026), I got great service, especially from the server with the piercings. The second time (Monday, August 10, 2026), I arrived around 8:30 PM and stood in front of the hostess station waiting for a very long time. Meanwhile, the servers gathered at the bar (within sight of me) and continued to ignore me. Finally, I asked for a table and then a guy sat me down and served me half a glass of water. Then I waited and waited and waited. Finally, around 8:57 PM, a server came to tell me that the kitchen was already closed (the kitchen typically closes at 9:00 PM on that day of the week). I then reminded the server that I had been waiting for 30 minutes. She said that, regardless, the kitchen was already closed. I repeated the fact that I had been waiting for 30 minutes for somebody to take my order. She apologized but insisted the kitchen was already closed. I then asked to speak to the manager. She left and came back later to tell me they were going to leave the kitchen open until 9:30 PM for me. Later, one of the servers gave me a nasty look while looking at her watch as if saying why are you still here? I thought to myself if they had given me a table and had taken my order when I first arrived, they would have been done before 9:00 PM. I'm writing this simply hoping that a manager will read it and re-train the staff. I was a Quality Assurance supervisor so I understand how valuable feedback is. I'm not looking for a free meal or even a discount. In fact, my tip was equal (100%) to the cost of the meal. :)

    After arriving to pork highway a little later than expected (6pm) and discovering most restaurants…read morethat specially serve lechon (roast pork) were closed, we went to La Placita de Guavate for some pork dishes alternative to lechon like the 'Can can' and pork chop tomahawk. Staff was friendly and was helpful in translating some dish names. There was also a happy hour until 8pm for a smaller sized cup of mojito - only $3! You can tell that the liquor was on the light side but for someone like me, I didn't mind it. I got the shrimp (camerones) dish with mofongo as a side, my husband got the can can, and our friends got the pork tomahawk to share. The 'can can' dish was HUGE (can feed two in my opinion)! It's basically a bone in pork loin chop with the belly and skin attached fried to a crisp. Drooling at the moment.. Overall lively atmosphere, nice staff and good food!

    I'm on vacation so I'm going to keep it short and simple. A group of us spent the day driving and…read morebuilt up a great appetite. I came up with the idea of taking them to the pork highway. However, we were quickly disappointed to learn that most of the fire pit roasted pork locations were closed. We almost decided to head back to the hotel but I made one more search and found La Placita open. I called to verify and the response was enthusiast and welcoming. We were so happy. Then we get there and this amazing professional takes us to our table and immediately starts providing the friendliest and caring service. We joked about my horrible "spanglish" and I assisted my party with their orders. It was busy, we were starved and some where borderline hangry. But then the drinks and appetizer arrived. Happy Level 1 achieved. Then after a few extra minutes, the meals start arriving. Omg! Everything was amazing. Get the Tomahawk! Get the Carne Fritas! Sides were also great - rice & beans, tostones, sweet plantains, mamposteao rice were all amazing! I hate myself for not remembering our waitress's name. I want her manager and the restaurant owners to know how special she is. If it helps - we were a party of 6 that came in at around 7:30-7:45pm on 4/22. Thank you and we will return on our next visit to PR! Great environment, great people, even better food! Muchas Gracias!
