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.

I ordered the seafood mofongo and the ceviche. The ceviche was its own meal. It was alot. No complaints from me. It was fresh delicious and i can almost taste it writing this review. service was great. The tostones the ceviche came with were crispy hot and garlicky! The seafood mofongo was super good. All fresh seafood in a garlic sauce that complimented the mofongo lovely. I tried some chicharron de pollo as well. Crispy hot and savory. Yes I would love to come back here and try more food and recommend anyone in the area to do the same!

    I came here famished. I was all day at the Beach in La Poza and Islote and my dad never came so I…read moreleft to eat on my own. Thanksgiving day and nothing was open in Arecibo where I am staying. I figured Islote by the beach would be my best bet to find something open. At first glance it looked a little shabby and like it might be more of a bar but then I read the sign and it said dinner so I decided to stop in. The place ended up being perfect for me. I was able to find a spot right in front of the restaurant so I can watch my car. (I had bad experience in Islote i'm paranoid LOL) There was live music with a gentleman singing and I enjoyed it. Then I saw the view and it blew me away it was spectacular! The waves come in and are practically under your feet. The moon was one of the most beautiful I have ever seen and I had front row seats. I ended up running into someone I knew from the area who said his Brother was actually the owner of the bar. He took my order and somehow it never got to the kitchen. LOL. After a long wait I finally approached the brother of the person I knew and asked him if my meal was coming out soon, he laughed and said his brother was crazy and never put in any order for me. I almost died in disbelief. I didnt know whether to cry or laugh I was starving and into my second beer on an empty stomach. Thankfully the brother and a woman from the kitchen came over and quickly took my order and a reasonable time later brought my food. My meal was $18.99 but I got fish "a la mantequilla" (butter) and rice beans and mofongo. Which is really complete and what I most like. I ate every last bite. The fish was delicious and the rice and beans with a little side of cabbage was perfect. Mofongo best ive had so far. I would give it a 5 if it wasn't because it was missing chicharron. (LOL) Once we figured out the brother never placed my order and got things moving everything went A+. I wish I remembered the owners name but he was super nice and apologetic and gifted me a beer and even packed a cute little guava and cheese tupperware for me! That was the sweetest! I will definitely be back!

    El Alcazar De Colón - Inside restaurant. Can't get closer to water than this. The moon in the distance was huge and very beautiful.
