    Perfect piña colada!
    James C.

    Honestly, just perfect! My fiancée had the whole red snapper and I had the seafood paella which was absolutely wonderful. This seaside bistro will charm you into spending hours with friends and family. Our server was most inviting and took care of our every need. This place will always keep a special place in our hearts because I proposed to the love of my life not 30 feet away on the beach as the sun was beginning to set. Thank you so much and I hope you stay for years to come!

    My favorite arepas with seafood salad and a gorgeous view of the ocean at Cerro Gordo

    callito (red snapper) y mofongo, arroz y frijoles (rice and beans)

    Quesadilla
    Sandra S.

    My teens were hungry one of them has quesadillas and the other chillo frito that is deedfried fish they both were good, the town is a little intimidating for someone that is not from here i a lot of giys drinking on the street and 4x4 with load music. If you are coming to cerro gordo beach this restaurant look like the best place toneat close to teh beach

    Octopus arepas! Good!
    Jaime R.

    Very good arepas! Octopus or conch! Must have! Also the fish nuggets are excellent! It's a beach front place with amazing sunsets!

    Yum!

    In town from Texas for Spring Break, staying at Embassy in Dorado. Found this restaurant near Playa Cerro Gordo, FANTASTIC!! Wife and three kids loved both visits, owner is great, even gave us this wine bottle balance stand you see in my pic. He even gave my wife his secret habichuelas (pink beans) recipe & pack of special seasoning. Mojitos and Margaritas were perfect, strong but well balanced. I'm partly cloudy as I type this review so sorry for grabber errors. ;) Eat here, you won't regret it!

    I love the mofongo here. I can't wait to visit every time I come to Puerto Rico. It's a little local spot and very reasonable.

    First time visiting the T-Mobile District and decided to stop in for a good cheeseburger after this…read moreplace caught my eye. At first, everything seemed fine. We were greeted, seated inside, and our order was taken with no issues. Unfortunately, the experience quickly went downhill and became one of the most unsanitary restaurant experiences I've ever witnessed. While we were waiting on our food, a man walked in with a dog. It was obvious the staff knew him because several employees immediately started interacting with the dog. The first thing I noticed was our waitress using both of her hands to pet the dog while the dog repeatedly licked her hands. In my mind, I thought surely she would go wash or sanitize her hands afterward. Instead, she proceeded directly toward the kitchen area and started preparing the condiments for our burgers without washing or sanitizing her hands at all. She then brought those condiments directly to our table. At that point, I politely told her she needed to wash her hands and that we no longer wanted the condiments. She walked away to the back, but the situation only got worse from there. The dog was approximately one foot away from our table the entire time. Personally, I do not believe dogs belong inside restaurants, especially around food preparation areas. Dogs carry germs, and anyone who owns dogs knows one of the first things they do when greeting other dogs is sniff each other's private areas. Watching staff pet the dog and immediately return to handling food and kitchen items without washing their hands was honestly disgusting. As we waited for the manager, another employee came up and allowed the dog to lick all over his hands. Right after that, he proceeded directly into the kitchen area to continue cooking food -- again, no hand washing, no sanitizer, nothing. We watched at least three more employees interact with the dog and only one person actually washed their hands afterward. When the manager finally came over, I explained exactly what had happened and asked him if he truly believed this was sanitary. His response was basically that dogs are welcome in the establishment and that he would "tell the staff to wash their hands." His attitude came across very dismissive, like he really didn't care about the seriousness of the situation. At that point, I asked for the bill for our drinks because there was absolutely no way I was going to eat food from an establishment operating like that. To make matters even worse, while we were paying, the man with the dog proceeded to take the dog toward the back near the kitchen area. Completely unacceptable and unsanitary. I understand some places are dog-friendly, but there still has to be health standards and proper hygiene when employees are handling food. Watching staff pet and get licked by a dog and then immediately touch food items and kitchen equipment without washing their hands ruined the entire experience for me. I will definitely not be returning.

    This was the meal I didn't know I wanted or needed till life chose it for me , so my s/o and I are…read moredriving from San Juan to Playa Crash boat but since we didn't wake up in time to have breakfast where we originally wanted to go we got in the car and left upon making decisions, choices,and being hangry and frustrated on not finding the right spot we drove into Dorado and found a few spots near one another the first spot we originally said to try based on google and yelp the service was just not friendly and we decided to leave and then I noticed the other location I had seen on yelp was KGB and it was straight down the road so we go to the location there is self parking available upon arrival I didn't even have to nope my door the hostess opened the door for us and quickly gave us the greeting of the day and seated us , moments later our waiter introduced himself and we took a look at our menus , water was being poured one after the other I never needed to look or ask for a thing , the ambiance is gorgeous and these decor was upscale and decorated by wonderful cases and bottles of their wines and champagnes and top shelf liquors while still a chic and upscale design , and cleanliness was 10/10 .... We ordered appetizer , we had the croquettas de jamon (ham croquettes ) and popcorn shrimp in walnut spicy honey glazed lemon , absolutely 20/10 !!! And if anyone is worried about the item being spicy I don't believe it was but it had a little tiny aftertaste kick more on the peppery side but none the less delicious , for entrees my s/o had lamb chops in pumpkin puree and cherry aujus ,with a side of KGB Fried Rice and sweet playing and I Had the shrimp mofongo in garlic sauce with a Side of avocado , sooo let me give these two entrees there flowers Lamb Chops Cooked medium well - Perfectly cooked to expectation juicy ,tender and the fat rendered making it incredibly flavorful rich and savory The pumpkin puree and pumpkin pave & cherry ajus took this meal to the moon way way way beyond expectation it added a the pumpkin was sweet and smooth that paired so well with the meat and the cherry ajus just bright everything together in a beautiful unified marriage of flavor every bite was the perfect bite and complimented it so well my s/o and I couldn't stop rolling and closing our eyes per bite no exaggeration! Easily the best lamb dish I have tried in an extremely long time !!! Mofongo de camarones By FAR THE BEST MOFONGO i had in PUERTO RICO and I had quite a few throughout the years and on this trip so I could compare !!!! Everything about this dish was perfect and I know speaking about a Mofongo in this light is SERIOUS !!!! The shrimp was cooked exactly how it should be cooked tender and juicy .... Please have no fear of overcooked dry shrimp bc from KGB that is NOT happening they are serving nothing but excellence !! The garlic sauce surprised me because it wasn't thick like a gravy or creamy where cream was added like I have normally experienced when ordering in other places ; it was more of a light garlic sauce flavor that soaked beautifully int the Mofongo without over powering it, Then I discovered onions in the sauce which made it even better bc I love onions in a meal then requesting avocado as a side to my meal was the perfect pairing , it added that fresh , and creamy element that connected the whole bite together and balanced all the rich and garlic flavors with the shrimp , it just WORKED !!like I mentioned after trying so many Mofongos and bifongos around PR , this exceeded my expectations 10/10 best one I had in my life Finished our meal w a nice double espresso each We left feeling completely satisfied and full but not with that heavy , uncomfortable feeling you often get after eating a super rich meal . Everything was well balanced from the start to the end . Amazing food, Excellent service, & beautiful ambiance and made it such a wonderful experience It was a dining experience to remember ! Worth every twist and turn we made to end up there
