The service was awesome and I know we came a little late around 7 so them being nice and accommodating definitely added to their credibility. The food was good, I wouldn't say great because things were a little dry and could've been a bit more flavorful but I'm not sure if it was a timing thing or just how they prepare their food. I would give it a try if you're looking for a quick bite and you're in the Salinas area.

I ate a quarter of the soup and half the mofongo side, couldn't eat as I was so aggravated. We get the check and not even a discount, they charged us for the full bill. Absolute insanity.

Por suerte pedimos varios aperitivos y estuvieron tan malos que no llegamos a ordenar nada más para almorzar. Empezamos pidiendo un caldo de pescado, parecía grasa pero estaba aguao' aguao' y soso, malo. También pedimos un coctél de carrucho, por $16.99 literal solo tenía 7 pedazos de carrucho pequeñitos y el resto era lechuga mojada con el picadillo de cebolla y pimiento, de sabor, nada espectacular. Los camarones al ajillo, que son imposibles de dañar, no sabían a nada y parecían hervidos (hasta tenían la espumita blanca por encima), hubiera querido pedir sal pero la joven no salía a atendernos; los tostones parece que habían estado sumergidos en aceite frío por varios minutos, así que también fueron imposibles de comer, y por último los chicharrones de pescado, más bien parecían haber frito una tilapia, con un poquito de mayo-ketchup nos lo pudimos tragar pero no era un buen filetito de pescado. En fin, lo único bueno fueron las cervezas porque ni el jugo de toronja tenía sabor. El servicio fatal, ni a cobrarnos se acercaban a la mesa así que tuvimos que ir personalmente a la caja. Un lugar muy bonito, solo necesita unos nuevos cocineros (porque chefs no deben ser) y empleados que disfruten y valoren su trabajo.

I sat at the bar, and the staff absolutely made the night. Insanely nice and receptive, they talked with me the entire time, made recommendations, walked me through the dishes and the culture behind them, and kept the strong drinks coming, which I will never complain about. That kind of hospitality is rare and I can't say enough about it. Now for my one nitpick, and this is a me problem more than a them problem: I don't totally love Puerto Rican food. This is authentic comida criolla, which pulls from Caribbean, Latin American, and Spanish influences all at once, and my picky palate keeps asking what exactly it's trying to be. But the vibes, the people, and the setting made the whole experience more than worth it. Come for the criollo cooking, stay for one of the warmest rooms in San Juan.
