The service was great, we sat outside to watch the LCD screens and listen to music. I tried the chicken flautas, queso fundido and gringo tacos. For drinks I put a tajin rim around my tamarindo agua fresca. I would recommend the tamarindo if you like tamarind, the flavor is strong. Everything else was ok but I don't think I would come back. The queso wasn't a dip it was melted cheese with pico on top. Instead of picking up the cheese the chip would break because the queso was so thick. I believe the flautas could be made better with a sauce. The green sauce that came with the tacos tasted like an avocado smoothie. But all of the meat was seasoned well so that was a plus. read more

We almost came here by accident but we're glad we did. Lupe Reyes is what I'd consider a typical "Tex-Mex" restaurant with the menu focusing on tacos and Fajita variations. Located in the "Districto T-Mobile" which was right next to the hotel we were staying at. Districtio T-Mobile is a restaurant and entertainment complex near the busy San Juan Convention Center. Lupe Reyes is one of I think seven restaurants in this complex. We and our friends arrived on a very busy Friday night and probably got the last table. After chips and salsa and a margarita or two we ordered our dinners. My wife had carnita tacos which she thought were excellent. My friend and I had steak and chicken fajitas. This dish had very nice chicken and strips of steak. I asked if the steak could be prepared on the medium rare side and it was. I feel it really added to the flavor. My friend's wife had shrimp tacos which she also enjoyed. It was almost as if we had a private waiter despite how busy the restaurant was. He always seemed to know when we need more salsa, napkins or refills or extra tortillas. For such a "tourist" area, I was really surprised at how good the food and service was. Prices were also acceptable. We looked at Yelp after we ate and weee surprised at the average ratings. We felt this was a pretty good place and would return. read more

100000/10 The service was slow but man did the guacamole and margaritas make up for it. OH and the cheese dip is different but I really enjoyed it. The chips were fresh and had a little seasoning on it. This was the first place that had Tajin to go on my margarita and I was SO excited for that. The guac was extremely fresh and comes huge for either a couple of a group of people. I'd recommend this place and sitting outside and enjoying the scenario. read more

I'll start with the positives....oh, wait! There are none. Moving on. . .i was so excited to eat here. The aesthetics were top tier. Cute spot for a date night IF you don't care how your food tastes! we walked in and were seated immediately. We ordered the birria tacos and they were the saltiest tacos I've ever had in my life! YUCK! I was highly disappointed!! My kids had the chicken nachos and guess what THERE WAS NO CHICKEN!!!! I had to run the waiter down to let him know "what's the deal". A few minutes later he runs back with cold shredded chicken ready to dump it on top of the nachos and I immediately take it from him and sit the plate of chicken on the side. At this point I was highly frustrated with our food and the service we were receiving. Both dishes that we had were terrible and made incorrectly. While this place is in such a nice area...they food is not good!! At all!! read more

Service comment only because we didn't actually get to eat. Waited over 50 minutes for a table, to not even get served. I asked for water and as I walked over a server decided to go chat with her other coworkers. I waited for someone to catch my eye and I was able to ask for water. Even then no one came with water. We decided to leave. As I walked out that same female server who was just chatting was blatantly on Instagram scrolling. Very rude and poor experience read more

Enjoyed an evening out with my Mom at Lupe Reyes during our visit to San Juan. I was craving Mexican over the traditional PR cuisine we'd had all week. We started with the guacamole, a margarita pitcher and 2 entrees. For dinner we enjoyed the steak fajitas and Baja tacos. However, before we got seated, it was a 20 minute wait at 7 PM on a Wednesday. There seemed to be plenty of tables but not enough servers. Then once we were seated it took about 15 minutes for anyone to approach the table and take our order. That sucked but it keeps going. The guacamole came out first - it's truly amazing. Fresh and very tasty. Then our entrees arrived -- before the drinks? A bit strange but maybe that's how it's done in PR? When the bottle arrived (not an actual pitcher) it was a relief to get started with our meal. The server didn't pour anything - it was on us to serve ourselves. Tip: Shake up the bottle to experience the flavors. The patio is great to experience all of Districto T-Mobile. The flashing lights, stage acts and video display. It's loud with people walking by so if you want to talk - sit inside. Overall, the food was good. The steak could have used more seasoning - salt & pepper even. The ingredients were definitely fresh and cooked to order. Portions are more than enough. Recommend if you want a Mexican meal and good drinks. read more

The ambiance it was great. The service it was very good. A the food it was delicious.

Ok tasting food from a good variety of menu options. Staff is very friendly and quick with service. Ample indoor and outdoor seating

Horrible service. Super slow to even get water. Food was bland. Do not recommend. Very bad experience.

We had some good food here and enjoyed the people watching. The staff were friendly. We sat outside the restaurant and just enjoyed the area we were in. read more

Amazing!!! I'm not sure if Lupe Reyes is a chain restaurant, but if it is I hope my area gets one! Great service, we were greeted and seated as soon as we walked in! Beautiful murals painted on the walls. A very welcoming feeling upon coming in! I loved the old school TVs all around the restaurant. The openness of the restaurant gave me family style event vibes. The food was amazing, tasteful, perfect temperatures, filling and plenty to take home! We also ordered a pitcher of margarita which was made to perfection. The restaurant was pretty empty when we came in so we were a little skeptical. I'm glad the guys in our group decided we were going to give it a try. Maybe it's because it's Mexican food in Puerto Rico. But when I tell you I'll eat Mexican anywhere I go, it never disappoints! I recommend the following items: Street corn -our group of 4 shared 1 order The margaritas Fajitas (steak and chicken) read more

DELICIOUS! Great view of the all of the action if you sit "outside". Our server was great. They mixed our order up so we had to wait a little long to get our food but our server gave us an order of chips and salsa to make up for it. Not worth $10 if you were to buy them but a nice gesture. My chicken nachos were DELICIOUS. The queso was superb. I would definitely go back to this place! The Passionfruit Margarita was tasty too. read more

This looked better than the experience. The food menu looks like would be suitable for vegetarians given vegetarian fajitas and quesadillas but after 30 minute wait, once we were seated and tried to order, they told us they didn't have several veggie options and only veggie fajitas they could make would be filled with onions and peppers. We asked for black beans, they gave us pinto beans and they charge additional - didn't include in the fajita order. There is a nice bar stall outside while you wait. I ordered a margarita, while on the menu the top silver margarita is $16 or so, but they charged me $18 plus taxes and tips. So that lack of transparency what the bar offers is not so good. While we survived and were able to eat here, but experience is meh and could and should have been better. There is also karaoke loud music being played, made it not so enjoyable for kids. We were 8 people and they told us they would need to split us up into four people groups. But inside it looked like they had a table for 8 open. Not sure they didn't use that table. May have been five more minute wait but they should have given us the choice. The lava cake on the menu that kids wanted wasn't available to order either. read more

Nothing mexican about this place. From the service to the food selections could not be further away from mexico. The owner most likely does not even know where Mexico is located geographically. Don't waste your time or money there. Puerto Rico would be better if this place disappeared read more

Everything. The bartender , whose name I didn't get, but had the Bad Bunny haircut was very professional and responsive. I had some portobello fajitas and elote corn and both were amazing!

After getting new owners, this restaurant took a huge turn in a positive direction. -except the chips still have yet to be perfected- The flavor of the food is officially worth it. Started off with the guacamole with pork, an adequate portion with delicious chunks of pork, and the ceviche which was full of zesty flavor. The tacos are still small but pack a punch of flavor. The Al pastor is incredible. So happy this restaurant in this great location made improvements! read more

Review of Lupe Reyes The restaurant itself was, quite frankly, phenomenal the food was divine, the ambiance welcoming, and the staff (aside from one) went above and beyond to ensure a memorable night. Unfortunately, our experience was nearly derailed by the appalling conduct of the waitress, Andrea. Andrea came across as condescending and uninterested right away. We happily accepted the information that we would have to wait an hour for our reservation. But as time passed, it became clear that we would not receive our table. When I went up to Andrea, she told me about a table that was open right now one that was outside at a nice spot on the restaurant's edge. Eager for the seating, I replied quickly and went to retrieve my party.Upon our return, Andrea told us that the restaurant was nearing closing time. Her petulant tone, aloof gaze, and overall demeanor made it clear she was making an excuse not to serve us. Meanwhile, the dining room still hosted several active tables, disproving her claim.Noticing her unwillingness to help, I requested to speak with a manager. Andrea immediately grew belligerent and refused to escalate the issue, repeatedly insisting that the clearly clean and empty tables were "dirty." Her unwillingness and visible exasperation at simply doing the job she is paid to do was baffling.Worse still, Andrea began gossiping about us to other staff members, making the area around us feel inhospitable and unwelcoming. We had the impression that we were the target. Thankfully, there was a bright side. An incredibly kind server named Milka saved our evening by making the effort to seat us quickly and see to it that our needs were met.The restaurant's manager, Carlos, soon arrived, extended a sincere apology, and did everything he could to make amends for the disaster that was Andrea.Milka's professionalism and Carlos's compassion stood in stark contrast to Andrea's insolence. To be perfectly clear, the restaurant itself was excellent. The food was superb, and most of the staff were truly wonderful. However, Andrea's behavior was deeply inappropriate and utterly unbecoming of someone in hospitality. Her brazen attitude, refusal to serve, and blatant disrespect nearly ruined what should have been a celebratory night.As wonderful as management was, it would be wise to reconsider her position or frankly, terminate it outright. Customer service is clearly not her strong suit. read more

HORRIBLE MEAL. We've been vacationing here for a week, and this was by far our worst meal. The fajitas didn't come with enough tortillas, which were very small, and we had to pay more for a few more small tortillas. We waited about half an hour for those extra ones to arrive, so the food was cold by the time they finally arrived. Overall the fajitas were bland. The ceviche is the worst I've ever had. I had to ask for extra chips because it was served with maybe ten. The chips are not good either. I only ate about a quarter of it. We hoped the flan would be better, but it's also the worst we've ever had. I could only bear the one bite. It is terrible. We did tell the server it was awful, and he could see just one bite was taken, but he didn't care. The server was MIA throughout the entire meal. Someone else brought the food and then the extra tortillas. I had to go inside and find him at the end after a very long wait. This guy doesn't deserve a tip. The atmosphere is amazing, but that is literally the only positive I can say. read more

I had my suspicions about the molcajete but it proved to be very good. The picture doesn't do it justice. There were some beans but they were nothing to Yelp! about. We sat outside and enjoyed the cool PR night. Ha! Just kidding; it was warm and humid as you'd expect. But the outdoor tables were nice anyway. Of course the Molcajete took a long time, but the rest of the service was slow, too. For example, we didn't get our drink refills. read more
