    Bread pudding topped woth vanilla ice cream
    Laura F.

    I was impressed and very satisfied with our service. This was our first time visiting this restaurant. I made reservations weeks in advance for my daughter's 15th birthday. The waiter was very helpful in providing a cake and candle, and singing "happy birthday" at the end of our meal. He was the perfect ending For her special day. The food was beyond delicious. Perfect potions, and the place was very clean. It was not too loud nor busy. The wait for our food was not long either. I hope to come back and eat here again.

    Bacon Jam Smash Burger

    Came here for lunch after arriving from Culebra. It was a quiet and lazy afternoon. Good for enjoying the view of the Marina and sipping on a beer or cocktail. My wife and I decided to go with bushwackers. They make good bushwackers here. My son let me take a bite out of the pastelillo (empanada) stuffed with beef, cheese, and sweet plantains. It was packed with meat. Tasty. I was in the mood for a burger and got the Bacon Jam burger; my wife ordered the fish tacos. The Bacon Jam burger is a smash burger with two patties, bacon jam, cheese aioli, and chopped caramelized onions. I liked it. It hit the spot and was filling. I would have liked it better if it had more bacon jam so eat bite would have a hit of sweetness. I got it with a side of tostones, which were nice a crispy. The fish tacos were also pretty good. I don't know how it gets in the evening or if it's usually quiet for lunch but it was nice and relaxing.

    Restaurant in the marina with a nice view of the boats. They also have a rooftop bar. Cool breeze. I liked the fish tacos and the bushwacker was delicious.

    Rey the bartender

    At Sábalo, the entire atmosphere shifts the moment you sit at the bar with Rey. It's not just about the drinks it's his energy. Calm, magnetic, effortlessly refined. He brings a quiet confidence that makes everything feel elevated without ever trying too hard. You feel it immediately like the night just leveled up. Rey has this rare presence where everything flows smoother around him. Conversations, timing, the entire vibe it all syncs. The drinks are flawless, but it's his aura that makes the experience unforgettable. Sit at the bar. You'll understand.

    The food was very tasty, specially the appetizers. The entree fish was delicious, however I found the coconut rice to be a little hard and cold. The service was great. The waitress was very nice and informative as we asked about places around town

    Jueves 2 de enero de 2025 fuimos a este restaurante que se encuentra dentro de las facilidades de la Marina Puerto Chico en Fajardo. No se si ha cambiado de nombre pero raro que no me aparece en Yelp cuando es frecuentado por muchos turistas, pero el nombre es el correcto. De cualquier la pasamos súper, vista espectacular aire fresco natural. Servicio excelente y la comida estuvo mejor. No vayas con prisa y tomate tu tiempo de estar relax!!

    The location is great, but the service was mediocre and the food way overpriced. I would not come here again.

    Charged $50 to grill fish we brought in with tortillas and pico de gallo. Felt like a borderline predatory practice targeting Americans.

    Sama was so good that we went twice during our Puerto Rico trip and honestly, I would've gone back…read morea third time if we had more time. This is a smaller, more intimate restaurant, so definitely make reservations ahead of time because seating is limited. But from the second you walk in to the moment you leave, the service is absolutely incredible. The staff makes the entire experience feel so warm and welcoming that you genuinely don't want the night to end. Huge shoutout to the chef because every single dish was executed flawlessly. You can tell that every detail on each plate was intentional and thoughtfully done. The standout dishes for me were the elote ribs, which were unreal, the grilled octopus cooked perfectly tender, and the ceviche con leche de tigre, which was bright, fresh, and packed with flavor. But the real star of the night was the whole branzino absolutely phenomenal. And for dessert? Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of the options. We ordered one of each for the table and genuinely could not pick a favorite because every single one was that good. Hands down one of the best dining experiences we had in Puerto Rico.

And most important of all, the four-legged Front of the House Manager aka Rufus, was a delight! The Branzino and Picanha were to DIE FOR!! Restaurants barely serve picanha, so this was a wonderful treat and the steak was so well cooked and had the perfect crust. The branzino was cooked perfectly. This is a meal my boyfriend and I walked away from saying that we'd remember for the rest of our lives. We don't plan to stay in Luquillo again, but we will definitely take the drive over to have another meal at Sama when we visit the island in the future. Thank you Sama!!

We came here for the lobster and ribeye to share between us and boy it did not disappoint! We were lucky that we got the last lobster from the tank. Loved every bite full! Delicious and yummy. Went well with my mango vodka mojito. We chose to have the Mamposteado style rice as our side dish. Which was so great. We had enough room to share a pistachio cheesecake and it finished off the meal great!! Thank you Ramon for a great evening and thank you Chef Ernesto Meléndez for a great meal.

Our waiter (I wish I remembered his name!) was so nice and even took the time to recommend other places for us to visit, which we really appreciated. The food was very fresh. I had the stuffed lobster, and it was delicious--definitely a lot of food for one person, though. Since we're just visiting, I'd recommend sharing if you're not looking for a super big meal. My husband had the mahi with shrimp, and he loved it. We had the calamari for appetizer, it was amazing! Overall, we really enjoyed everything and would absolutely recommend this place.

He also had a lot of knowledge about the area. If you stop by this spot, make sure you have a chat with these friendly staff members--they are a wealth of information.

The host sat the table of five and then came back to us. There was some back and forth on where we made our reservation. We originally thought it was OpenTable but it was actually Resy. The host confirmed the reservation and I saw it on her tablet screen. I also showed her the confirmation email we had. Despite this, she told us we would need to wait 30 minutes for a table. No apology or acknowledgement that this was an inconvenience. This was both surprising and upsetting, given that we had a confirmed reservation. The host revised her estimate to say it might be 15-30 minutes. Unfortunately, the behavior of both the host and the server she pulled in to assist her was unprofessional and inhospitable. They were condescending in their explanation, stating that we had to wait due to "previous reservations" and suggesting that we should be happy to wait. This was especially upsetting since a large party without a reservation had already been seated ahead of us and no matter how much we tried to explain our frustration, the staff was not interested in hearing us out. I fully understand that mistakes happen, but I found the staff's dismissive and rude behavior to be unacceptable.
