    Scallops with white wine reduction.
    Elise M.

    When I say this was the best meal I have ever had anywhere, that is saying something. I had the scallops in a white wine reduction over pasta which was the best thing I have ever eaten. My husband really enjoyed his salmon and coconut rice. I had a margarita on the rocks with tajin and he had a mango (they make their own fresh juice) rum drink. We were both very pleased with our drink selections. They also gave us an appetizer of 2 thinly sliced eggplant sautéed with Parmesan sprinkled on it. I am not an eggplant lover until now. I would have eaten a whole plate of that delectable dish. They also brought out a few pieces of bread with an oil and Parmesan sprinkled on it, again I would have taken a plate of that as well. The only thing shocking about this place is, there is not a line wrapped around Luquillo to eat here. I guarantee once everyone tries it, it will be the absolute place to go. Our server, was an absolute delight and very attentive. The chef came out as well to make sure everything was ok. It was better than ok! He is brilliant! If you are thinking about going I promise you will not be disappointed.

    Garlic butter lobster and pesto pasta
    Kimberly N.

    I enjoyed sitting on the outside patio people watching. I was seated immediately and ordered the garlic butter lobster with pesto pasta. The lobster was soooo tender. The waitress was very attentive, but not intrusive. I was given an appetizer of eggplant, pumpkin, and toast on the house. It was great. Highly recommend supporting this local business!

    Skirt Steak with creamy pesto sauce.

    From cocktails to desserts Pasta Y Pueblo hits every single taste bud. Eclectic ambience with friendly and knowledgeable staff and attentive service. Reservations highly recommended. Enjoyed the skirt steak with creamy pesto sauce on penne and seared scallops in butter garlic sauce. Chocolate layered dessert (wow)! Great dining experience from beginning to end. Don't miss Pasta Y Pueblo while in Luquillo.

    Eggplant appetizer

    Oh wow! We were looking for something outside of Puerto Rican food and found this place. I love that you don't actually get a menu, rather, they come out and they tell you exactly what they're serving for that day. They are also great with making recommendation if it's your first time there. Make a reservation if you can't because it gets packed pretty quickly and the restaurant seating is very small. We will definitely be back.

    Pasta with scallops and seaweed salad.

    A HIDDEN JEM! A Family Business--dad is owner and chef, son & daughter are waiters, all amazing people. Small intimate restaurant with fewer than 10 tables. Nice seascape mural along the wall. I will say RESERVATIONS ARE RECOMMEND! This is not an in & out place... it's a relax, sit, talk and enjoy your time. It's a small kitchen with experienced chefs making meals with love. And sometimes it takes time, but that's why there's a bar! To start all the appetizers are amazing. For main dishes there are a variety of pasta dishes with choices of steaks, seafood or chicken--ALL AMAZING. Favorite has to be the creamy pesto. Or you can do your protein with the coconut rice instead of pasta. And a small selection of lovely locally made deserts to end the night off right. Every time I eat I'm in heaven and every time I leave I can't wait to come back!!! So happy it's finally back in action after taking years to rebuild at a new location due to Hurricane Maria's destruction. This place is a must!!

    Yelp map is wrong. Red pin is the actual location.

    Coconut rice is perfectly balanced to give that refreshing island feel.

    Rather disappointing. The house salad, while reasonably well-appointed with mushrooms, tomato,…read moreand onion, had a hint of the taste of rotten lettuce - while I didn't find any, maybe it sat next to some or was selected out of a batch of partially spoiled lettuce. Also, the mushrooms appeared to be from a can, not fresh. Perhaps I am wrong on that point, but that's how it looked. I don't know what kind of fish was used for the Carribean ceviche but it was very tough, very chewy, and sliced rather than diced. I've never had chewy fish before, and I didn't like it. They will not serve tap water, even though it is generally considered safe to drink here. If they want to be over-protective in this way, they should offer filtered tap water without charge. As others reported, service was rather slow - when we arrived there was only one other occupied table, and it took about 20m to receive two of our three ordered dishes, which were all salad or appetizer. Apparently the waiter forgot about the third, and I was actually hoping that she had, but she brought it about 15 minutes after the first two, with apologies. After presenting the check, I provided my credit card, and was asked how much I wanted to tip. That's odd. I told her (and tipped generously, because wait staff deserve a decent income). She went away and later returned with my card, without receipt. I asked for a receipt (of course I want to know the amount actually charged!) . She was unable to print a receipt at that point, so she printed out a register report and showed me the amount there. Really odd. The entrees are quite pricy $20 up near $50.

    Service & Hospitality: amazing! We were just staring at the bartender make their Piña Colada. A…read moregentleman started talking to us about how it's made, their food specials, and we decided to stay. Best Piña Colada we've had in a long time! They even give you a side of the pineapple if you order it that way. Food: We are locals coming from the US and we were born on this food so believe when we say, it's authentic. We got the BISTEC ENCEBOLLADO and both mamposteaos with tostones. Also, must try their sorullitos!

    Amazing collection of side by side eateries by the beach…read more Food: 4. Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3 Cost to worth it rating: 4 (economical meals) Opentableable: no reservations Return worthiness: yes Eve award: best chicken "taco" Highlights: - Chicken "taco": imagine if an egg roll and a taquito had a baby. Bumpy fried texture outside fully enclosed with shredded chicken that was simple yet had enough flavor. Fave thing I had at the kiosks and made the list of foods during the trip. 5 stars - Chicken empanada: similar filling but in a crunchy empenada exteriod. 4.75 stars - Pork skewer: big chunks of meat cooked well and glazed with a mellow BBQ sauce. 4 stars - So many permanent spots to choose from--over 60--over a long stretch of road. I was envisioning a set of food trucks. - Family owned - So many options even within each place - Displays at most places with their offerings behind the glass or tall picture menus on display - Simple seating with tables - Also have alcholic drinks if you want: full bars in the kiosks and other spots with mojitos or pina coladas Midlights: - Alcapurrias specialty of the area but was too dense with the plantain exterior with some ground meat inside and not as much flavor for me. 3 stars - By the beach but not right on the beach--few parking lots over - Researching ahead of time may not be accurate--looked for plain items from my son some places were supposed to have but didn't see them there Lowlights: - Hard to choose since there are so many and not sure which are the best. I had ideas going in but went with what looked good and our driver recommended. - Limited parking so may be harder on a crowded day - About an hour drive from old town San Juan so a stop if you are venturing out to beaches
