    13 dollar burrito with processed cheese on top. I added the onion and cilantro
    Edward M.

    Overpriced and not authentic. But they tried. There are some good and bad points. The good: the ambience, convenient location, beer specials (corona 4x10), cold AC, background music. The salsa and chips. The salsa bar is nice. However no pico de gallo The not so good: the food isn't authentic. The Spanish rice is white rice, the al pastor is shredded pork with bits of pineapple. There was velveta or processed cheese melted over the burrito. And it was overpriced for what was offered. Don't expect authentic food however you will enjoy the ambience, beers, chips and salsa.

    Quesadilla vegetariana and totopos with refried beans and guacamole. Yum
    Shary A.

    I went here because my colleague suggested this place. It is more of a fast food than a restaurant. I ordered the vegetarian quesadilla (and it was goos but i wanted cheesier). I also ordered the totopos with refried beans and guacamole. I loved it. For hot sauce i didnt like the chipotle one as much. I also had the special sodas in grapefruit and my friend had tamarindo. I would definitely come back.

The server was accommodating and got us a seat for our party of 4 very quickly. I believe it was a one man show that night and he was running between all the tables, but was very efficient and had a great attitude which made any waiting we might've had to do worth while. The inside was clean and had a good vibe with nice music playing. Our table shared as an appetizer the green chile ceviche, which was very good and could itself be enough for a main meal for two people. My wife got the quesa-birria tacos and I got the governor shrimp tacos. All were great meal choices, the tacos were stuffed with meat and very filling. A great spot for people looking for some tasty Mexican food in San Juan.

Ordenamos las tostadas de camarones (mi plato favorito), tacos de pescado, y los frijoles. Todo estaba sabroso. Las porciones y el precio eran muy razonables. El lugar no tiene mucho espacio, pero atienden bien rápido. Solo que los asientos son muy altos, así que no lo recomiendo para familias con niños chiquitos. Great food! Recommend the shrimp tostadas. The order of beans was also good, reminded me of my childhood meals lol. Space is tight, but you'll get seated quickly as the staff are pretty attentive. Prices are pretty reasonable and the portions are fair.

The vibe was great, the food was fresh and well made, and the service was friendly overall. A fun bonus: we actually got to see the famous rock band Maná dining there, which was such a cool surprise! We ordered quite a bit--the chips and queso, chips and guac, hot sauce, tamale, rice and beans, kids cheese quesadilla, and veggie fajitas. The kids' quesadilla was a huge hit with our 5-year-old (who is a picky eater and devoured it). The veggie fajitas were decent and tasty, though for the price I would have liked a bit more on the plate in terms of sides. There was a small hiccup where cilantro was accidentally added to one of my dishes, and it did take quite a while for the corrected dish to come out, but they were very kind about it. That said, everything else was enjoyable and the overall experience was still very good. Overall, a great spot for solid Mexican food in Old San Juan with a fun atmosphere and fresh flavors.

We waved as we walked in to a waiter, pointed to a seemingly available picnic table, and he waved that we were good to go, so we sat right away, at 7:45p...after that more tables opened up. Drinks: 1. Pina colada - no bueno...like a coconut ice, not pina colada. 2. Passion fruit juice with fresh mint - delicious! 3. Cherry juice drink with alcohol - wife liked it, and I thought it was good. Appetizers: 1. Beef empanadas- I thought the crust overpowered the meat and onion, but daughter and wife loved it. 2. Nachos - terrible. Chips were stale and cheese/beans covering was bare, but then they gave us additional refried beans in a little cup, and straight I thought the refried beans were delicious. 3. Baha fish tacos - phenomenal!!! Entrees: 1 Chicken fajitas: disappointing. The spicing was off, on the chicken, and the guacamole was mostly sour cream. 2. Steak fajitas: very good and way better than the chicken Service was quick and the staff knew their stuff, but it took a long time to get the bill because other tables came in.
