Holy fn crap. The waitress placed us at a table that would measure an 8.5 in earthquake seismic measurements and would bring a building to its knees.So when they put coffee on my table...it crashed. All over my clothes, legs, flip flops & phone. Glad I didn't have my dope Nikes on or my laptop else. Kept a smile on my face and paid for average food. How do you not accept fault and compensate the victim? Be careful my foody brothers and sisters.
The cutest little place. The servings were huge and the food was fantastic! Loved the energy of the staff and how nice they were. I got the french toast which was massive, but so sweet and delicious. All of the portions were well worth the price. Would definitely recommend for a cute breakfast/brunch vibe.
I was in Puerto Rico for the bad bunny concert and stumbled upon this place. It is cute cozy and the food is solid.
Lela's is the definition of great service and outstanding food. It was easily the best breakfast we had in Puerto Rico--everything was cooked to perfection. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. Our server and the entire team were attentive, friendly, and focused on making sure we had a great experience. The food was absolutely delicious, and the portions were generous for the price. If you're looking for a fantastic breakfast spot with excellent service and reasonable prices, Lela's is a must-visit.
I was waiting for a place worthy of 5 stars for my 500th review.Excellent choice for the last meal in PR. Lots of Brunch options. Wonderful service. Graceful staff. Friendly, vibrant and lovely. We ordered 2 yogurts with fruit. 1 eggs your way plus a side of bacon and 1 chorizo eggs. Everything was well prepared. Fresh and tasty. Remarkably, it was what I didn't order that held my heart. The bread with guava spread. OMG insanely delicious. They have a house hot sauce to die for as I've recently realized I am quite the hotsauce fiend. I simply have to have it. Theirs was avocado cilantro based and I was fascinated. Our waitress was simply the sweetest lady. Accommodating and kind being that we walked in before departure with 6 bags on us. She sat us at the longest bench and we fit comfortably between the bench, bags and chairs. The passionfruit drink was so good and natural tasting, real seeds inside. I loved this place. Would definitely recommend if in the area. Reasonable pricing too. They also have outside seating. Esthetically pleasing diner and very clean as well.
Amazing food and drinks! The wait times were often long, especially for drinks, but we were in no rush. It's so hard to find restaurants with Turkish eggs and these were perfect. each of us was so pleased with what we ordered. The restaurant is quite small so you are crammed a bit in. Staff is incredibly nice and attentive, just has some longer wait time. Would definitely recommend and we will be back before our trip is over.
Great little brunch spot in Ocean Park right next to Loiza Street Station. Open air seating for larger groups. Service is welcoming and fast. Prices reasonable and menu varied. Coffee was good, from cappuccino to mocha, plus a booze menu. We actually split a huge Monte Cristo sandwich, that was sliced and stacked. Though they seemed to have made French toast, then put the sandwich together rather than dip it in egg and fry it. Cheese was not fully melted and sides were open. Also it's usually dusted in powdered sugar and served with a side of fruit or potatoes. They also had their own branded avocado hot sauce which was tasty. Great for people watching!
You can eat outside or inside. They get you seated very quickly. Maybe a little bit more expensive but worth it! The servers are very good at what they do and always are hustling. The place is clean and the coffee is great. We ate there 2 times in 6 days.
Food was great, a tad overpriced though. Service was good but not the best. Ambience was nice. Loved the chango (birds),
Super cool brunch spot in Puerto Rico! The food was delish and the staff were so friendly and accommodating. I really enjoyed it, they ended up playing live music in the afternoon so it was a vibe, I would def come back.
Firstly, the staff here is so friendly! The decor is good and the food is even better. Everything tasted fresh and everyone at the table ordered something different and we thoroughly enjoyed everything. I personally ordered the VICTORIA'S EGGS BENEDICT and it was heavenly. The table got the FRENCH TOAST GUAYABA-QUESO to share and we had no words, literally. Absolutely amazing. Highly recommend coming here and my friends and I are 100% coming back. Also, not sure if this is still a thing because it's been a while since we've been here, but they used to have bottomless mimosas on Weds and Fri!
This was the PERFECT birthday treat! Shoutout to Chris, our waiter, for his excellent service and recommendations. We started off the morning with lattes and coffee and both were brewed well! For starters, we tried the Amarillo y chorizo homemade croquetts and honey, these are to die for! Main dish: I ordered the guava-cheese French toast and my boyfriend ordered the Jimmy churrasco and eggs. Listen well, the portions are HUGE! My French toast immediately filled me up after a few bites and I had to tap out. The flavors added to this French toast, makes it one of the best I've ever had! And yes, you're able to taste the fresh guava and cream cheese in each bite! Omg, I'm excited just thinking back. My boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed his dish and like me, he had leftovers. We concluded the meal both stuffed yet satisfied! A true description of how amazing this food is and how likely you are to enjoy your dish! I highly recommend this place to anyone.
I found this place on the Yelp app where we were staying nearby and the options/ menu looked wonderful so we decided to give it a try. This restaurant is very popular. We had to wait about 25 minutes before we seated. The food is fresh and the service is terrific. The menu is moderately priced. I must add that they have homemade guava butter and it was so delicious. I've never had that before. You must try it unfortunately they don't sell it. My husband and I liked it so much. We went back the next week.

5/5! I stopped in before an excursion, thinking I had enough time, but my check in got moved up. I had just put my order in and was regrettably going to cancel it. Not on my waitress's watch. She rushed my order and served with a smile. The apple pie French toast is phenomenal. A very healthy serving!! My mom and I shared one meal and were both satisfied. We'll be back (probably tomorrow LOL) to try the guava cheese French toast! read more
3.5/5 Stopped here about an hour to closing since my husband wanted fish tacos. It was busy and service was a little slow but worth the wait. The salmon salad was insanely good and my Mr did enjoy his fish tacos. Sangria was strong and OK, not my fave. read more

Myself, my mother, and 2 others visited earlier this month. Mrs. Lisa was an amazing waitress! She greeted us quickly and provided great info about the serving sized and her recommendations on something for myself and my mother to split. We decided on the breakfast sandwich--IT WAS THE BEST IVE EVER HAD! Do you see how thick that toast is?! Omggg, you won't regret trying out Lela's! read more

Now this wait took forever. The staff was super kind but it took almost an hour before we were seated we had a large groups I don't recommend going with more than 4 people in order to not have to wait a long time to seat and eat. The food was good, not life changing but it was good. We enjoyed our time once we had our food. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating. read more

This is a tough one. Walk up and they're jam packed. I do my normal move and peep the bar. She says the bar isn't open and the wait is 40 mins. She was very welcoming and friendly. I said cool I can wait. My table was ready in about 20 minutes. I did notice at one point when I looked up that there were several people at the bar, not sure what happened there maybe they opened it while I ate. Vibe was cool, I don't remember much tbh but it was good brunch vibes. Got coffee, it was good. Got juice of half orange and half passion fruit. It was really good. I got the chorizo and Amarillo (plantains) croquettes. Super yummy. Where things fell short was the eggs. It came with potatoes and toast, those were both good along with the jam (guava maybe I don't remember). I preferred scrambled eggs and they were pretty awful. I bet if I ordered something else it would have been better. These were sub-par. They just fried up some eggs and broke them up in the pan, it seems. Overcooked too. I don't like soft eggs so you can cook them a lot before I complain. These had that burned egg taste. Also, and I could be trippin, but they didn't taste particularly fresh. But maybe that was just the overcooked flavor. I didn't really eat them after a couple bites. So all in all, it was fine. There were some highlights. But I would not add this to my list if I were you. You only get a few breakfasts while on vacay, and I don't think this is it. I won't come back on purpose, but also wouldn't make a point to avoid it. 3.5 stars. read more

The entire staff was exceptionally accommodating to us. The restaurant was super busy and our order accidentally disappeared without anyone noticing. The manager was extremely apologetic and made our visit that much more enjoyable. Every single thing we ordered was delicious. Steak and eggs, croissants, omelette and Guava and Cheese French toast! The ambiance is quite beautiful- down to the restrooms. We each also purchased bottles of their homemade hot sauce to take home! We will be back soon! read more

They were fast to seat us despite a line. Good service, good coffee, and the food was very tasty. We had the healthy start, avocado toast with fried eggs and French toast. The guava paste for the French toast was killer, we ate the whole thing. Also enjoyed the salad with the avocado toast, the meal was still a bit healthy! Nice little brunch spot! read more

I decided to visit this spot after seeing so many great recommendations on Google and TikTok. The service truly stood out--our server (I believe her name was Adriana, though I'm not 100% sure) was absolutely amazing, and the entire staff was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was welcoming, and we felt really well taken care of from start to finish. As for the food, unfortunately, it just wasn't to my taste. The eggs had a strange flavor that I didn't enjoy. The presentation is amazing, but flavor is mediocre. The pancakes looked nice and were soft on the outside, especially with the strawberries, but they were dry on the inside. The French toast was definitely the highlight--soft, flavorful, and something I'd recommend if you visit. The coffee was very strong, which I liked, but it didn't really have the vanilla flavor I was expecting. Lastly, the oatmeal wasn't for me--it came out lukewarm and had more of a porridge-like texture. Overall, the experience was elevated by the outstanding service, but the meal itself fell short for me personally. I'd consider coming back to try other menu items since the staff and atmosphere were wonderful. $47 for 1 coffee, 1 side of french toast, and 1 order of pancakes isnt worth it to me. read more

This place was cute! The food just wasn't the best for me. Just average. The matcha was too sweet, the avocado toast was very soggy but it did have a lot of avocado spread on it. I got the healthy start which actually was pretty good! Large service and the potato's were the best part! read more
Everyone in our group raved about our breakfast here. Their sweet breakfast items were the stars of the show. Apple pie French toast and Dulce De Leche pancakes were both top notch. If you're reading this, trying top find a breakfast place in San Juan. Stop reading and go to Lela's! An added bonus is there is a private lot here. Parking can be dicey in San Juan so to have on site parking makes life easier. read more

Pancakes were not good. They were thick and they topped it with this fake blueberry compote. I don't like how they serve you on styrofoam plates with plastic silverware makes the whole experience mediocre. Wouldn't come back. read more
