Oh my! After a long flight and grabbing a rental which was only seconds from this tasty restaurant it was recommended we try Odyssey. We were starving and needed something good to eat. After looking over the menu which was kind of pricey I decided to go with shrimp in creole sauce with rice and Parcha (passion fruit juice). You could sit inside or outside we opted for outside as you could watch the planes go by as it's literally right next to the airport. It was a nice scenery. While the servers were very nice the food did take awhile which was a little disappointing but the told us they're short staffed and there was a lot of customers. But we waited and I'm glad we did because this was the best creole shrimp I've ever had! The flavor, the taste, the way it was made perfecto! I was so happy with my meal and the jugo de chinola (passion fruit juice) was amazing even had pieces of pulp in it, which I'm a big passion fruit drinker and I've never had the seeds left in it or the pulp pieces and it was sooooooo good. I think everything was extremely delicious. Just the food did take awhile and the parking here is horrible, there's not much space and it gets packed quick. But if you're hungry after a long flight and want real Puerto Rican food, give it a go!
The food is very good. The service was good but it was a little slow for the salmon quesadillas it took an hour around to come. The place is small like a mom and pop spot so if you got a big group, you might have to wait cause it gets crowded but I did like the food. They have another side with slot machines and tables for take out or small groups like 3 tables.
This spot was just about five minutes from our Airbnb, so we took an Uber since it was late at night. We arrived around 11 PM, and the place was packed. It took about 45 minutes to get our food, but it was well worth the wait. The food exceeded my expectations--especially the salmon quesadilla, which I had never tried before. The staff was very friendly, and they have team members who speak both English and Spanish. Prices were very reasonable, making it a great late-night option.
As soon as you land at the airport, please go straight here... the first bite of the food here was the most welcoming gesture Puerto Rico could give us. Honestly, the area is pretty sketchy and my friends and I were pretty scared to park in the streets at night. When you walk in, most of the workers don't speak English so it took awhile to put our order in. Some ingredients were out of stock but we were able to make the right adjustments to still get the full experience here. Pina Colada was SO good and cheap here, and came in a big to-go cup so we were able to just take the leftovers when we asked for the check. I honestly can't remember what we ordered and I'm not able to find the latest menu, but please just refer to these pictures and order what's in there. I promise you won't disappoint.
This was our first stop in Puerto Rico because it was near the airport. We wanted a place to hang while the traffic died down before making the trek across the island. My buddies ordered the fried pork and I opted for the salmon. The service was friendly but a little slow but nothing excessive. Our food arrived hot and the portions are reasonable. The pork was very flavorful and tender. My salmon was a little over cooked but once I got some garlic butter it was fine. The rice and beans was on point though. Normally I am not a fan of beans but once I tasted them it was over. They were seasoned so well that I ate them all! We all did. Definitely not bad for my first meal in Puerto Rico and it is convenient to the airport.
Open late and in my opinion this is a plus. There is a place next door to them that is open 24hrs but I don't think they serve the same items. Upon entry, they took temperatures and sprayed our hands w hand sanitizer. We were seated instantaneously afterwards. The menu is vast with items such as quesadillas, ceviche, pasta and pizza. The ceviche was very good and fresh. We also ordered a penne pasta plate with steak and that was rich and creamy. Got chocolate cake as dessert. Sorry no pics of the ceviche nor ice cream. The place had plenty diners late on a Sunday after 9pm. I would definitely return !
Last meal before leaving Puerto Rico and I am so glad we chose this place! My boyfriend and I wanted one last good meal before we left back home and this hit the spot! We ordered the fresh juices - both were delicious!!! I ordered the chicken tacos which were probably the best chicken tacos I've had - they were so juicy and so flavored. It was amazing! My boyfriend wanted a burger so that's what he ordered. He enjoyed it so much and was in love with how it was marinated. It was so inexpensive for what we got and the quality of the food. The customer service was great too!
so it was the end of our Puerto Rico tour and we were returning our rental car. while going to the rental office, we saw this restaurant. it was 9 PM and we knew after returning our car and taking the airport shuttle, we won't get many options for a meal. So we stopped here, parked in a congested space which they call parking (its fine space, don't worry). not sure but the door was locked, you knock and they open the door for you- they have their own reason for this. anyway- small but clean, well-maintained restaurant. I guess it's very old in this area and like us, many patrons are those who were taking the airport shuttle. we ordered our favorite- Fish Tacos- before leaving, we wanted to have the last bite of local fish tacos- it was good, fresh. Kudos Burrito - it was heavy, I could not finish both halves, so I packed the rest and dare to pass it through custom (and I did) - and then slept through whole flight journey and next thing I know, I am eating the leftover at home in new jersey..lol Service was a bit on the slow side, as they were quite busy in delivery -to-go orders. but this is a good option in this area. I guess it's 24x7 or opens till the wee hours.
Food amaz-balls!!!!!!!! Opened 24 hours!! Worth it! Area not so welcoming food is great!!! This is my second time being here! The scenery is cool nothing too wow about it. They don't have good drinks either! Stick to the food with this place. The service is okay. There aren't many people who speak English either. Good thing I know enough Spanish to order food. The food comes fast as well.

First stop for dinner while on vacation. While it doesn't look like much on the inside the food and drinks were top notch! Our waitress was great and it appeared to be a spot for locals to gather. Highly recommend the Piña Colada Frappe and adding Rum! Super yummy! read more

Waited 40-50 mins for a pizza I was told would take 15 mins. They kept pushing the time. Owner told me it's not their fault because they get busy. No competition or understanding. Rude and inconsiderate. read more

This is the absolute worst "Latin" spot I have ever been to. I ordered the bistec, with arroz and habichuelas... what I ended up getting was cut up pieces of "bistec" , which tasted & looked like chewed up pieces of fat . They served it to me in a bowl on the side with 75% onions and 25% "bistec". The rice, which is supposed to be the easiest thing to make... was dry, tasteless, and cold. They basically heated up old rice in a microwave and served it to me. The habichuelas were warm on the top and cold at the bottom. Clearly they didn't finish microwaving it. Finally, the "salad" on the side was clearly an old bag of mixed salad that they sprinkled some water on . I have never been this disappointed with such a simple meal. If I could give 0 stars, I really would. As for the service, my waitress was kind and was clearly embarrassed by the food. However, the head waitress or whatever she was, claimed there was nothing wrong with the food. At that point, I realized she was clearly in denial and has not tried the food for herself. I decided to just walk out and pay it, did not even touch my meal and left. Absolutely horrible experience. Please avoid this spot, don't be tempted because it's near the airport. Save your money, thank me later read more

Great! Have all our luggage from airport. They were nice and let us set it to the side. The ice tea I got was great and family got sangria. I got chicken mofongo with white sauce and family got quesadilla, fish tacos, and tacos and it is all amazing. My family was in a mood and this cheered them right up. I'm here right now and literally ordered beef steak mofongo to go because I wanted more. read more

Great spot for our first meal after landing. We were pretty hungry and ordered a ton. We started with some much needed margaritas- I got the passion fruit and it was refreshing and delicious, but not very strong. The beef tacos were yummy and flavored well. I got shrimp flavored mofungo with garlic sauce- the portion of shrimp was very generous and the sauce they recommended paired great. My husband got the chicken filled mofungo with cheese sauce (I think?). It was his first mofungo and he was very pleased. Surprisingly our fave was the Puerto Rican rice. Drooling remembering it. Highly recommend you order it if you ever visit. read more

Right in the middle with this one. Great local food at reasonable prices. The quality isn't going to be superb but I really enjoyed my churrasco steak. The meat was a little tough but nothing that couldn't be fixed with their garlicy green salsa. My friend got the fish tacos (made from their ceviche) and it was awesome. Get the ceviche! read more

All right let's talk about Odyssey restaurant. If you want a great seafood experience come down here. Now, if you want tacos, if you want pasta, if you'd like something different just asked to Chef 9 times out of 10 you will get what you like or what you craved. I personally love the octopus love the way that they cook Pasta dishes it's literally amazing. So if you're in Puerto Rico the moment you land call Odyssey restaurant and ask him do you have whatever dish you like because it's going to be amazing. The restaurant is right off the airport. I'm gonna finish my meal and post this review that is how good my pasta is! Odyssey Restaurant you are Cintron Approved! read more
This place is one if my best driving by finds. Driving on the freeway late when everywhere is closed and then an "OPEN" sign. It was an easy decision, however it did not mean you know what your going to get. Well let me tell you what you will get. Great service, family owned and staff on site very welcoming and friendly. I looked at their options and everything look tasty but the question I had was, how fresh is it at this time (3am)? The owner offered me tastings and WOW! I was sold and ordered Pulpo (octopus) ceviche & (fish) ceviche de pescado in a hard shell taco which was prepared with lettuce and cheese.. cheese? Right?! It was fucking delicious! After eating my octopus & fish I decided to order a Charusco taco with their homemade guacamole spicy salsa which was also . I was hungry and ate all my food before remembering to take pics... sorry peeps, I will return and you'll get pics.. Family friendly owned late night spot is worth a drive to eat and try. Bookmark this place and when you find yourself in Puerto Rico hit this place up. read more
