    We went there after tubing through the caves. The service was outstanding and the food was delicious! It was authentic food and would go back if we are in that area again.

    Excellent chinchorro that serves up good food and strong drinks. They open early and are always busy on the weekends. Not lot of space to sit, but still fun to hang out and drink a little before moving on to the next location. If you come during the weekdays when it is not very busy or are lucky to find a table when it is busy, then you should try the food. Very good and satisfying. Lots of parking along the side of the road and across the street.

    Friendly service. We tried the ribs with some beans and rice. Pretty decent. Nice snack at a local spot.

    Friendly staff and nice food. You can eat the typical pork stomach soup here! It's right off the highway, can't miss it. Enjoy

The lobster risotto was flavorful and the serloin with dirty rice was mouth watering. I can't say enough good things about the food and the atmosphere at this restaurant. Thank you so much for the incredible experience. Counting down the days until we eat here again.

    ¡Wepa! After eating our way around Puerto Rico in search of the perfect mofongo, La Terraza in…read moreDorado hit the spot. They didn't just throw a scoop of mofongo on the plate. They lined the entire pilón--the bottom and the walls--with flavorful, garlicky mofongo, then packed the center with a generous mountain of tender, juicy churrasco. Every bite had the perfect balance of steak and mofongo. That's Puerto Rican engineering at its finest. The churrasco was tender, the mofongo was moist and packed with flavor, and the whole meal tasted authentic--like someone's abuela was back in the kitchen making sure nobody left hungry. If you're in Dorado, hazte un favor and stop here. You'll leave saying "¡Qué brutal!" while secretly wondering if it's socially acceptable to scrape the last bits of mofongo out of the pilón with your fork... or your finger. ¡Gracias, La Terraza! We'll definitely be back. This is the kind of Puerto Rican food we came here hoping to find.

    When it comes to Puerto Rican food, I truly only know Grandma's cooking. Our close friends mom,…read morewhom we refer to as Grandma cooked some of the best Pernil,arroz con gondules, tostones, and so on. So on our first night in the PR, we definitely wanted some authentic Puerto Rican food and with no recommendations, I resulted to what I know and did some Yelp searching. Not far from us was Toston Jibareño. As soon as we entered, I knew we were in the right place. The place has a decent amount of people inside so I knew it had to be ok. The menu has items I wasn't familiar with, but I went with what I thought I knew. Let me just say everything we ordered was spot on authentic to what I know. The pork chops was out of this world. The mofongo's and tostones brought back memories, the skirt steak was so tender and they did not have arroz con gondules, but instead arroz con habichuelas which are beans and I can't eat beans. It was a great first night. As much as I would love to come back,I have to try different places and different things, but if you are a local and haven't been here or a tourist and want good PR food, this is a great first stop.

    We were recommended to come here by an employee at the rum distillery we were at before this (Ron…read moredel Barrilito), and it may have been the alcohol speaking, but it was delicious. My friends and I shared the skirt steak with mofongo, and the mofongo was the best we had our entire trip. We got to try to chicharron too, and it was crispy and flavorful. The steak was tender and juicy. I can't remember much else from the meal, but I would definitely come back, even just for the mofongo alone!

    This was by far the best place I had in Puerto Rico. Having lived with a few Boricuas for a few…read moreyears, I was never impressed by Puerto Rican food. It's mostly fried and fatty (sorry) but this place was the opposite! My local guy in Puerto Rico told me I would love it since I told him I wasn't a fan of overly fried foods. So he, my client, and I went there and saw it was super cool and right next to Ft Buchanan Army base! This place was packed with locals, cops, blue collar, business folks.. every kind of person was there and everyone seemed to know each other! They had amazing maduros with chicken, carne, veggies, and rice that was so tasty! We ended up going two days in a row for lunch because it was so fantastic and I cant wait to come back here! Thanks for changing my mind on Puerto Rican food!

    What a surprise! This place was far from what I expected! Simple environment, simple menu but…read morebeware, you are in for a treat. I was so grateful that my coworkers took me to this place. I was on line with a bunch of people who knew what they came for: good old Puerto Rican cuisine. I went for the pork stuffed with yuca. In was covered in bacon. What a delight!!! I have never tried this and was ecstatic at the combination of flavors. I had two more carbs as side dishes as if that was not enough. Yuca frita fríes and arroz con longaniza. I was in heaven. I was told by saint Peter that this will be served in the heavenly banquet. I was well beyond full from the serving size but not ashamed of the generosity of their service. No longer could I pretend to have an inspired working dinner. I was a clear recipient of the culinary genius behind this creation. Enjoy!!
