She is very kind, not pushy, and what's better than eating good food on a beautiful beach?! Maria is fantastic, you wouldn't be disappointed by the service. Very nice lady. Of course the location is great because it's Puerto Rico! Vibe is always good, been coming here for about 5 years and I cannot believe we've missed her! Be on the look out.

A very small restaurant with absolutely authentic Puerto Rican food with about 10 tables or so,…read moreabsolutely do not miss this place! So what do you get by coming here? You get the real deal, real Puerto Rican dishes, with the greatest flavors and fair prices. Unless you prefer playing overpriced, find dining restaurants with average Puerto Rican food, which there are plenty of in the area. I'm not able to emphasize how small this restaurant is, it's located right along the main walking strip in Coronado Beach. Maybe 10 tables or so. No reservations walk up wait in line if you have to eat and leave. Not only will you eat the best tasting food during your trip, but probably also pay the least amount of money. We went here twice! Their rice and beans recipe is probably what it's all about! We got grilled shrimp and skirt steak over rice and beans and honestly, I could've had it all week long! This little gem local place is not to be missed! Highly recommended!

This casual restaurant is a fun dinner stop with open air dining (not so good on a hot day though)…read more We went early at 5pm and avoided crowds. The restaurant filled up before we left. We went with the waitress's recommended dishes - Mofongo Churrasco (steak) and Mamposteao Tacu Tacu with grilled shrimp. Flavors were strong and a bit on the salty side, but delicious. We enjoyed both dishes. The Mamposteao Tacu Tacu has a long fancy name but it was rice and beans topped with skirt steak. The sangria was the happy hour cocktail of the night, very refreshing.

They had outdoor seating available, but we opted for indoor. The staff was friendly and the place had a nice vibe. We happened to be there on the day(Thursdays) that they have 2 for $10 sangrias, so I helped myself to a pair. I got a strawberry and a passion fruit and they were both delicious. The menu had a nice variety and was vegetarian-friendly, so I was happy about that. I decided on the veggie empanada and the salmon empanada. Both were hot, delicious and authentic. I'm a big salmon fan, but I ended up like the vegetable empanada more. That thing was packed with flavor! I wanted to try the veggie sandwich, but was too full to eat it for lunch so I got it to go. The sandwich was good as well, but I ate it later so it wasn't fresh. The only negative thing I can think of is the time that it took to get our food. Once I saw how tasty the empandads were, I wanted to take some back to the boat with me, but it would have been too late. I think we waited for about 20 mins for our food and another 10-15 to get our checks. Other than that, the experience was great and the food was amazing! Definitely worth checking out.
