The restaurant is pretty big and was totally packed. Even though they were slammed our server came right over and took our order. We each ordered a combo plate, and everything was do good! The only thing I noticed that they didn't do that most Mexican restaurants in the US do is chips and salsa, but it was all right because everything else was really good.

We were craving some street style tacos and saw the great reviews from my fellow yelpers! We enjoyed the shredded tinga tacos and the carne asada. I preferred the carne asada over the shredded tinga tacos. The queso was pretty good but probably would have been worth it to add the chorizo for a little extra flavor. The chips were a little thicker than I prefer, but definitely hand made in the restaurant. The service was great, all of the employees were so nice and we got our drinks and food quickly! Seating is indoor and outdoor. This restaurant would be good for larger groups as they have some larger tables. We will be back! There was plenty of street parking, but no dedicated parking lot.

Prices are all very reasonable. Most tacos are around $15 for three and come with a generous portion of rice and beans. The michelada was good and the chips and salsa were a phenomenal app for only $2. They gave three types of salsa, all were excellent but my favorite was the salsa verde. Portion was very generous - it could have been half the size and I would still say it was a good value. Tacos were filling and warm. The rice was a little bland I thought, but was a nice accompaniment nonetheless. The corn tortillas fell apart a bit but the filling was sooo delicious that I ended up just eating it separately. The place itself is really cool on the inside with a lot of interesting art. I wish they had wifi so I could have sat and hung out for a bit! Would definitely go back.

They delivered fast each time we had it 2 nights in a row. If you are visiting PR and are wanting authentic tacos and burritos - look no further! The flavor was truly like no other. I don't even look at burritos in America the same. The sauces were hand made everything was made to order. Without needing to repeat myself for a 3rd time - this is where you want to go if you are in the mood for tacos and or burritos! Lol Not too sure of the ambiance as I did not visit the actual store so the environment could not be predicted BUT I'm sure of the appearance and display of the food presentation it too had to be top notch. Very clean and classy. Definitely going back when I can. Hope they can bring this to the states (yes I know they are apart of us) would love to see this restaurant as a chain locally!

The second order was supposed to be two short rib but we received two chicken poblano. It worked out in our favor. The chicken poblano tacos were superior to the short rib. The short rib was kind of dry. The chicken was super juicy and the poblano sauce elevated the flavor. The Salsa Verde was the perfect accompaniment. The radishes were also refreshing. I like this place.

What can you expect when the owner is Chef Javi Pacheco, one of the co-owners of Bacoa, one of my favorite restaurants. The elotes were very good. These were different because they were small bites. They basically took an elite and cut it into pieces for sharing. The chips and guac were fresh, definitely house made. As for tacos, I went with the taco al pastor and carne asada taco. The carne asada taco was bigger and on a flour tortilla. The al pastor was on a yellow corn tortilla. Both were tasty. I'd also recommend the birria tacos. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The interior is small with mostly tall tables/counters. I don't know how it gets on weekdays but on weekends it is busy and they don't take reservations. So arrive early, or at least get one in the party to arrive early.

We kept the nice bartender busy. There are a number of food items too like tacos and apps. Chips and guacamole were pretty good.

I live in Northern California and I am blessed with excellent authentic Mexican food restaurants everywhere, this is definitely not aauthentic. To begin, the rice was basmati, the mole sauce for the enchiladas was ground up black beans, no cocoa or spices, and the chicken was flavorless. Just to make things worse, our hostess is waiting for us as we walk in and in a heavy German or Nordic accent instructs us to walk in and as we walk, stop at a podium, quickly take a picture of the menus and then hurry to the back of the restaurant to our table. Very precise and militaristic. Finally, dessert options straight from Costco, Reese's Cheesecake! Next time I am in Vieques I will make a point of avoiding this place. Not for me.
