I'll start by saying this, the server did a wonderful job. She was overworked and seemed to be the only one taking in all the tables. Let's begin with the ambiance of this place it is dank and gives a divey feel. The most concerning thing about this establishment was the bathroom had no water and the bathroom was filthy. If they are able to have the bathroom present ourself that way I can only imagine what the kitchen looks like. The food came out relatively quickly but was not hot, it was more lukewarm. The only reason why I even stopped here was because the restaurant I wanted to go to was booked up. I don't see this place standing for another year. .5 stars and I do not recommend. read more

Came here for dinner while visiting OSJ and it was awesome! We opted to sit outside and started off dinner with some really tasty mojitos. Me and my boyfriend decided to split the chillo frito and we were beyond impressed. First off the fish was massive! It was so light and flavorful and not greasy at all. You could tell how fresh it was. We also got a side of arroz mamposteao which was the perfect side. My cousin ordered the NY strip with rice and beans and she loved it. She said the meat was cooked perfectly and she loved the beans. Our server was also so nice and gave us great recommendations on what to order and some places to visit and dance in OSJ for the rest of the night. What's great is if you opt to drive yourself there's a parking garage right across the street so it's really convenient. I would definitely recommend Muelle 13! read more

Muelle 13 - Bars Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

First time trying this place. My friends and I tried this place because it wasn't packed, plus my friends wanted Seafood. We ordered the Alcala, santa Maria drinks I enjoyed the AlCala which had Lavender flavor. Loved it. We had appetizers Croquettes de Chorizo, to die for. And Chorizo en Vino the sauce was a too sweet for my tastebuds but the Chorizo was good. Service was slow but still attentive. We ordered the seafood Paella surprisingly it was delicious. My friends shared this plate. We got full and didn't finish the Paella Stop by and try it, their dishes looked delicious as well. I was looking at the orders of the surrounding tables. I recommend this place. Place is clean. I have a 4 star because the service was slow on returning. They looked short staffed. read more

Ugh I was not impressed with this place at all. This was my last restaurant before leaving PR & I realized that they take their sweet time in the kitchen. Every place I went to in the San Juan area made me wait over 30 mins for my food & this place was no exception. I was already irritated because I was craving crab cakes & they didn't have it. I remember asking for something else & they didnt have that either. I just picked a random pasta dish from the menu because I was over it & exhausted from being outside all day. Since the food took so long, I decided to have them give it to me in a to-go container so I could eat it in the airbnb. Oh I forgot to mention that I ordered a pina colada & they served it in a candle glass lol. It was good so whatever. I would not recommend this restaurant because I felt like it was very over rated & the food was not great at all. The decor is probably the only good thing about this place. read more

We found this place while walking around the port area, offshore from a cruise. They have a very fun atmosphere with lots of decorative art. We ordered the fish tacos, pork sliders and fish nuggets. The fried tilapia fish tacos were excellent, as well as the pork sliders with pickled onions. Their homemade rum sauce on the sliders was very good. The mahi-mahi fish nuggets were excellent, and they said the fish was caught fresh that morning; it sure tasted like it, too! The Medalla beer was served very cold in a bottle. Service was excellent, she was very friendly and helpful. We are so glad we found this restaurant. Definitely worth a visit! read more

If you're looking to waste your time, kill your appetite, and test your patience this is the place! They took over an hour just to bring a water and a Coke. We waited TWO HOURS for cold rice and chicken so dry & hard to bite. The mofongo with skirt steak? Sopa de aceite, no flavor just platanos drowning in oil! A heart attack waiting to happen. And the steak? Might as well have handed us chicle, each piece took 30 minutes to chew. Honestly, I've had better meals in microwaved leftovers.This was disrespectful to my tastebuds & my pockets. 0/10 read more

I wanted to like this place and this is my honest review, When we went they were missing like half their menu including their burger they said the avocado isn't in season and that's why, but they have a restaraunt right by this spot which has no issue serving me avocado the next day. They also had a kid burger and it was huge. It was red on the inside. My daughter who isn't a picky eater didn't eat it. My MIL got pasta and her pasta was good, my man got a mofongo with yuca and it was very good. The service was extremely extremely slow... they couldn't find a Heineken at first then they found one. I was a little irritated with how slow the service was. The food that was ordered besides the burger was good. I don't know what's up with half the menu missing and when I asked for cafe con leche as I have 3 littles with me she said the machine was broken. If they don't have coffee , and they don't have avocado and they missing half a menu they should remake the menu with items they do have. I got flustered after ordering coffee and being told the machine was broke then being told there is no avocado in season, yet I eat avocado at every other location I ate stuffed avocado at Raices the next day. So when she asked if I still want something I gave up ordering food and just took bites of my man and his mother's food. I was scared to be told again we don't have what's on the menu and I was embarrassed to keep trying to order food. Unfortunately because of this I wouldn't go back unless it was to run inside for a drink. I do appreciate a food truck in these situations. Eating out is so much money and I really look to spend my money at places that take their establishment seriously. I felt like I was being messed with I don't know is the cafe machine really broken. I won't be back. read more

The drinks were good, my husband and I got the tintorera and the pinche pirate. There was a nice balance with the flavor of both. The tintorera was more on the sweet side and the pinche pirate was more bitter and some spice. The menu was very limited which was disappointing considering that most of the options we were looking to try weren't being offered. There were only about 6 entree options that were available. My husband got the mofongo with shrimp and criolla sauce, it was lacking flavor and there were more onions than sauce. I got the mofongo with shrimp and the garlic sauce. The garlic sauce was delicious but also had a lot of onions. The onions weren't cooked throughly also. Our waitress was the best. Her recommendations for our drinks were great. She was very attentive and helpful. The restaurant itself was clean and cozy. There a bar in the front where you can sit and look outside and then a few tables towards the back. I enjoyed the low lighting and the decor. read more

Looks can be deceiving. Had the Arroz con Grandules, which was gummy and inedible, along with tough, chewy Bistec (steak) Tacos and bland, unsavory Chicken Tacos. Also had Pork Sliders that were room temperature at best and need MORE seasoning. HATE when tortillas are NOT grilled! No one wants to eat insipid flour. The Chicken Empanadas were actually juicy and flavorful. The Passionfruit Mojito and Pina Colada that was supposed to have spiced Rum but it tasted like watered down Coconut. Service was rudimentary but inattentive. Saw a young lady chef come out. She should have her Abuela give a refresher because her cooking was very "youthful." read more

The absolute worst experience I've ever had in a restaurant. We waited over 3 hours for our food. The food was disgusting. I ordered Mofongo and it was so oily it looked like soup. Our drinks were completely watered down, the server said,"oh I forgot to give it to you, but it was made so you still have to pay for it." We would also ask him for napkins and he would say "oh yes, but I have another table to take care of." As if we also aren't paying customers. Please do not waste your time. Go next door to raíces or any other place around there. But save your time and money. read more

My friends and I were walking through the rainy, hot and humid streets of Old San Juan and needed a break from the heat and humidity. We saw Muelle 13 with a cool aesthetic and decided to stop for drinks and appetizers. Our friend let one of the servers know that we were a group of six. She was not very friendly and acted as though we were troubling her by asking for such a large table. She did go inside and came back to let us know they had a table for us. We were seated and luckily our server was much friendlier. Unfortunately, after bringing our orders, he was not really present. However, our orders did come out, slowly. I had a tropical drink called Isla de la Tortuga and my husband had a watermelon cocktail. They were both pretty good. Unfortunately, I did not like the food at all. The croquetas and crab cakes were over cooked and overly breaded. I shared with my husband, but could not eat my portion. We also shared the pork sliders, which had a slightly stale flavor. I left most of mine on my plate. We may have stayed for a second round of drinks, but by that point our server was absent. My friend got her ketchup when her fries were already almost gone. We decided to ask for our check, but the servers were having some sort of a meeting in the front of the restaurant. We were about to walk up and interrupt, but finally were able to get our check. Anyway, bad food and poor service... do not recommend. read more

Wandering Old San Juan at sunset looking for a great place for dinner and stumbled upon Muelle 13. From the moment we walked in they were welcoming, made great craft cocktails and mofongo! Had my favorite mamopasteo and theirs was delicious. A great vibe, great staff and well crafted food and drinks! We are staying for two weeks but I fully recommend for cruise goers, not far from the port! read more

Viejo (Old) San Juan Puerto Rican bar restaurant with a focus on serving delicious seafood dishes, located walking distance from the harbor for the cruise ships. Food: Fried calamari - 5/5 - definitely recommended for calamari fans Crab cake - 4/5 - delicious, but is not jumbo lump crab meat Chillo (Red snapper, fried whole) - 4/5 - please this needs to be fully de-scaled; if too bland, spicy chili sauce is available on request Mofongo with crabmeat - 5/5 - loved how the salty seasoned crabmeat balanced the blandness of the mofongo (mashed seasoned green plantains) Ambience: Lovely romantic with dim lighting and candles Service: Excellent, super friendly and attentive read more

Overall, worst meal we had in town. Margs were so acidic that you could feel the stomach ache happening. We work in the industry, you could tell it's cheap sour mix. Food was sad. Churrasco was under seasoned and overcooked. Crab balls were bland (I think they were crab? Idk I don't eat meat this is what my partner had) Maduros (amarillos) we're cooked too soon, needed to ripen for a few more days, and weren't cooked enough. Fried cheese was cardboard but guava sauce was good. I'm a vegetarian so I asked if there was jamon in the frijoles because it's red beans and I know it's common. She said no. Beans come out, tiny bits of jamon, so small that I can't even pick it out. Rice was iight. Food came out with no utensils. Server was on their first day and wasn't being trained by anyone so it's not her fault, but still. When we tried to ask another server for utensils, they said we have to ask our server. Also it's pricey and the bathroom was gross. Sorry! Next time, I'm going to El Jibaritos. read more

Amazing ambience went in during the middle of the afternoon on a Monday there was one other family service was super friendly and attentive. I ate the octopus salad because they ran out of ceviche with Tostones. The octopus was delicious. I just wish they had more tostones. It only came with three. My niece had rice, chicken beans, and salad and a side of tostones. The food was delicious very flavorful, I would definitely go back. read more

Great service - our server was really friendly and helpful, but really busy. I got the fried pork mofongo and plantains. The fried pork was really dry and the mofongo was relatively flavorless compared to other ones I've had. Drinks were great and they have great flan that our waiter gave us on the house. Fun environment! Might've enjoyed more if I ordered different food. read more

We went thinking we could just get an appetizer and drinks while waiting for a different restaurant. Our server was terrible! I was as in the industry myself and I was never rude to anyone for any reason. The server rolled her eyes when we ordered, when we asked for the ticket and was so rude when we paid. The restaurant is nice and welcoming. We left before eating because we were just shocked how rude the server was. I'm sad we didn't get to try it out. read more

excellent food, goor atmosphere. Staff was very friendly. Good spot to visit near in San Juan.

We walked in, and the place was busy. Luckily, the wait was only 20 mins or less for the 5 of us. In less than 10 minutes, we were seated. Our server's name was David (very nice guy who spoke English and Spanish). I ordered the strawberry lemonade, which was so good I ordered 2 more refills! It had mini lemon/lime slices in it and was very good! I also had some amazing chicken tenders and French fries. My mom loved the pina colada. Will definitely recommend, and definitely coming back next time we visit Puerto Rico (we live in the United States) read more

Un fiasco! read more

A group of four of us popped in for a couple of drinks while we were touring the city as a stop on our cruise. I love San Juan, and we were so happy to find this spot.

It was well balanced and very refreshing. read more

The food is fantastic. We ordered the chicken and risotto & the burger with plantain - some of the best dishes we've had in Puerto Rico. The service, however, was not great. We waited an hour and a half for our food after ordering, and the waitress didn't check on us during that time to ask us if we wanted a second drink. I'd still recommend this business for sure, just be prepared for a long wait. read more

Theeeee absolute best Monfongo. Oh My God.:: It's In a great people walking area. We sat at the bar the first night and it was pretty active. Well actually it was active the second day we went back too because this time we had to get a table. The customer service was okay ( slow to acknowledge us and didn't bring out everything that was ordered initially and blamed it on being new- no excuses- just apologize and make it happen) but man the food made up for it. We tried Monfongo at a few different places and this one was the best. It was moist and not dry like some of the others we had. Also the grilled mushrooms were super yumm. The fried ones not so much. I'd definitely go here again. read more

I really enjoyed this place while in Old San Juan. The decor is dark but not negative dark. It looked really good. I liked the decor! We got seated right away! The host was very friendly and sat us and gave us the menu. Our waiter was knowledgeable and took our orders promptly. We ordered the seafood paelle which says it's for 2 people but we split it amongst 3 of us. 2 of us weren't hungry so if all 3 or you are hungry, one paelle would not be enough to share for 3. It was delicious tho. I really enjoyed it and wish I had more. The prices were fair and my bf enjoyed his Pina Colada. read more

A great place to grab a hand crafted cocktail or a great meal. Sit out on the sidewalk tables if the weather is nice or inside in the ac.

The flavor in their food is absolutely unmatched. The chicken was the most flavorful and juicy chicken I've ever had in my entire life. The beans were so delicious I scraped the bowl........ and not to mention the mofongo. The mofongo here is FANTASTIC. I couldn't recommend this place enough.
