Chicken and rice
Neeru G.

We stopped here for lunch. So far the best place for mafango. We had yucca mafongo, red snapper fish and chicken soup. My husband ordered chicken with rice and beans. Chicken was ok and fish was a bit salty but the soup and magical amazing!

Churrasco con Fried Rice and Fries.

Great combination of Chinese and latin food. Taste - excellent Portions - generous Price - $$

Chicken Mofongo!
Brandon M.

Our party was staying at the El Conquistador resort on our way to the El Yunque Forest for site seeing and hiking and wanted to fuel up before heading out for lunch. We had a craving for Mofongo and this place popped up up on the map. First impression was that this place was a nice cozy eatery and you can tell the cooks in the back make everything home style so we had a feeling were in for a treat. We all ordered the Chicken Mofongo with a side salad and it was just absolutely delicious! It was only $10 and the portions were very generous and filling. We were all very full once we finished our meal. Those who venture here might want to brush up on their Spanish as all menu items were listed in Spanish with no English translations. However, there were pictures on the wall for most items so you could just point to what you wanted and the cashier would understand what you want to order if there was any language barrier. Great place to eat and convenient to reach just outside the resorts and the rain forest.

Garlic Pulpo (braised octopus) with mofongo relleno. $18...so yums!
Lilian N.

Our initial thoughts were that the prices did not match this hole-in-the-wall diner, but when we actually tried the food, we were pleasantly surprised! It was delicious! I decided on the Mofongo stuffed with garlic pulpo (octopus) because the lady upfront told us the pulpo is caught fresh, cleaned, and braised in-house. Well I definitely wasn't disappointed by this dish. Flavorful, moist, garlicky, light, and seasoned perfectly. The Mofongo was filled to the brim with pulpo, and more piled on top. The Mofongo packed a lot of flavor and was not over fried. Other dishes I tasted were the pulpo salad version, which is sort of like ceviche, Puerto Rican-style creole chicken, and tostones. Atmosphere is very casual, you place your order and pick it up when they call your name. We would visit again!

We wanted somewhere that we could have anything- seafood, mofongo, churrasco, and "puertorrican Chinese".

Given more days in Luqillo, I would return every day to try all their food…read more I started with the arepas de coco - very well fried, soft, doughy puffs complemented with a guava sauce. They were addictive, it was hard to not eat all of them. They would also be a good dessert - reminiscent of beignets, but with less oil and sugar. For main I had the churrasco skirt steak with rice of the day. It was a generous portion of steak topped with a delicious churrasco fragrant with garlic. The rice was well seasoned and perfectly cooked texture. Server was enthusiastic about the food and providing suggestions. Though I suspect everything on the menu is delicious. Guests at all the tables around me raved about their meals. Indoor seating is cozy and comfortable. There's a small bar with counter seating.

The Paseo de la Pared might be the best cocktail I've ever had. The service was very friendly,…read morealthough there were several instances where 1 person of our group of 5 was left out when things were delivered to our table. The waitress (who was super cool) had to go and remind the bar to make my wife's drink. Then, she had to go and ask the kitchen why my entree hadn't come out when everyone else had been served 5 minutes prior. The food was good (especially the churrasco), but this was a very expensive meal. Like, "Holy hell is that correct?!"-when they bring you the check level expensive. We would go back for those drinks, but I would need to sell a couple of non-vital organs before we could afford to go back for a full meal.
