One of the highlights of the evening was the live salsa music & the singer really sang to my soul. His performance was so moving & heartfelt that I even cried (that's how beautiful his voice was). It's rare for a restaurant experience to leave that kind of emotional impact (but this 1 certainly did). Between the delish food,outstanding service,& unforgettable live entertainment this was an experience I won't forget. If you're looking for gr8 food & a lively atmosphere, this is the place to be!!!

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.

Our apps came out super fast but for some reason the food came out way later. Some of the food was slightly cold so maybe they had it sitting out to wait for everything to be ready. I got the mofongo w/red snapper and it wasn't anything amazing. Just food for fuel kind of vibe. The mofongo was a little cold and dry to where I had to douse it with their sauce but taste was okay overall. Don't think I'd come back here but it wasn't terrible. Wished they gave more veggies or some kind of side to justify the price we paid for our dish. Just seeing lettuce and tomato was a little underwhelming. I'd say this was a 3.8/5

Getting an authentic Puerto Rican mofongo on the island, with the fresh grated garlic and the chicharron smashed in a pilon, has become a difficult task since it requires a lot of work that not many businesses are willing to go through. Must of them want to serve a flavorless plantain purée that doesn't look or taste like a mofongo but they called it that way anyways. So if you really want to have an authentic culinary experience of Puerto Rican food where locals eat, this is the place. I strongly recommend to visit off lunch hours because it can get crowded and the place is small. Don't miss "El Mofongo Ahogao" best dish on the menu, is a MUST! The dish consist of the mofongo in the middle of the plate drowned in a chicken broth, a match made in heaven, and ask for a slice of avocado on the side, HIT. Eat like a local! Enjoy

Unfortunately, our experience at El Platanal was a bit disappointing. The food was good, but…read morenothing really stood out enough to make up for the service, which was definitely lacking during our visit. At first, I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they were short staffed, but that did not seem to be the case. The amount of time between ordering drinks, receiving appetizers, and finally getting our meals was simply too long. There were stretches where we were left waiting without much communication or attention from the staff, which took away from the overall experience. On the positive side, the restaurant itself is very nicely designed and has a great atmosphere that fits perfectly with the laid back, tropical lifestyle of Puerto Rico. It is an inviting space and definitely looks like a place where you would expect to have a great local dining experience. Overall, the food was good and the atmosphere was enjoyable, but the slow and inattentive service kept the experience from being what it could have been. Hopefully we just caught them on an off night.
