    Domingo 11 de septiembre de 2022 después de haber asistido a la Iglesia Bautista de Palmer en el pueblo de Rio Grande salimos con hambre y queríamos algo rápido para almorzar sin tener que esperar en un restaurante y tropezamos con este negocio de Pollo BBQ. Menú básico clásico y criollo la experiencia fue perfecta y súper rico. La comida tenía un sabor exquisito y me gustó mucho. Lo mejor fue que nos sirvieron rápido y el hambre se terminó. Lo recomiendo si es que tienes hambre y desea comer rápido. El local tiene aire acondicionado y está todo limpio. Al lado queda una panadería que podría hablar en otra visita que haga a esta parte de la Isla ya que hoy nos para la casa.

    The chicken was on point!

    We stopped here on the road between Ponce and San Juan, and since we didn't have a lot of time, we…read moredidn't wander too far down the Ruta del Lechon (Pork Highway). This place is right on the main highway, it's huge and packed so plan accordingly: we arrived before noon on a Friday, so we probably got one of the last parking spots (there's a guy managing or charging in the parking lot? not sure) and the line was manageable. A large group and some buses showed up after us, so it got really crowded! Anyway, we had a short line, had no idea what we were doing to order (I should have researched better) but pointed and nodded, and with some help from the nice people in line, ended up with two huge platters of pork, rice and some other sides - way more food that we probably needed. The food: delicious! I would say our #2 favorite meal in Puerto Rico, after Marmalade (but that was more than 10x the price!) The pork was delicious, juicy, flavorful, and the crackling was to die for! I wish they would package those and sell them - probably only good fresh, though. Rice and sides were adequate: my son tried to be healthy and said the salad and potatoes were ok, but you're really there for the pork. Cost etc.: we paid less than $50 for 2 enormous plates of food and some sodas. It was enough for 3 lunch servings, plus enough leftovers for 2 people to have the rest for dinner - so I guess 5 servings? The wait was not bad early on a weekday, but they must get incredibly overrun on weekends. It is entertaining to see the pork cooking on a spit (please don't come if you are vegetarian and sensitive to such things) and watch them hacking away with machetes. My husband wondered if the machetes are the same once used for sugar cane!

    During our trip to Puerto Rico, we made a stop at a lechónera- a restaurant that serves lechón (one…read moreof PR's unofficial national dishes), which is a whole, slow-roasted pig. This restaurant is just one of many open-air roadside spots that serve lechón along "La Ruta del Lechón", aka the "pork highway" in Guavate. We got a half pound of lechon along with Mamposteao, which was delicious and filling. The pork skin hit a level of shatteringly crispy texture that I have never had from non-fried pork skin. We came later in the day, which unfortunately meant that the pork was slightly dried out. However, the texture and flavor of the lechón was absoutely delicious. It's a "build your own box" style restaurant where you choose which sides you want on the dipslay. Besides the mamposteao there were also other delicious-looking sides such as plantains/mofongo, beans, fruit, etc. There's a small parking lot outside the restaurant- one where the rule is you can only back your car into your parking space. Interesting. Would definetely come to try lechón here again!

    Blue's is like the bar on Cheers-everyone knows your name and if they don't, they'll ask for it…read more It's our first meal when we come and the last when we go-with many great meals and good times in between. Eddie and Jace set the tone with great service and generous drinks at the bar. The burgers are the BEST and the potato salad gives mine a run for its money. The menu has something for everyone and it's all delicious! Sunday has brunch (amazing breakfast bagel sandwiches as well as other great choices) and bingo (Tim calls a fun game!) and there is also live music on different nights. I am remiss in not knowing the cooks names-and they deserve a shoutout for the excellent food! It truly is like someone's backyard-open air and homey. Treat yourself to a true island treasure and visit Blue's. PS-a friend created this of Eddie at the bar with AI-and it rocks!

    Grabbed some takeout from here…read more I had the 3 meat platter with beef brisket, pork ribs, and italian sausage. The beef brisket was a massive piece of beef, about 3 inches thick. It was tender and juicy. The italian sausage was sauteed in red onions with red and green peppers. The pork ribs were fell off the bone easily. There were 2 sauces to go alojg with the meat. I liked them both. My only issue was that the meat had too much smoke flavor to the point that it tasted like soot to me.
