Colorism where it wasn't expected. For the sake of this review it important to know that I along with one of my other friends are two light skinned black women but the rest of our friend group are darker skinned black women. At first, the food was pretty okay. I got waited on and served relatively quickly. However, my darker skinned friends had to wait a longer time not just to order, but also to get their food. One of my darker skinned friends ordered three empanadas and only received two. When she tried to speak to one of the servers about getting her third empanada they refused. She said she was willing to pay for it, but they refused to serve her what she asked. Then, they said there's always a problem with "you people". Then all of a sudden they lied and said she was trying to scam them. As we're walking out, they start cursing at us and saying things like " I hope everyone except you (referring to my darker skinned friend) has a good day". The servers were overall very disrespectful, they cursed, and they were overly unprofessional. So even though the food was okay this was a horrible experience. As we were leaving, we saw two other darker skinned black women walk up to try and order. We told them about our experience and the servers started lying and saying that we are there every day and always causing problems. This was also untrue. That was the first time we've ever been to this restaurant. We walked a block down the street to wait for our car service. Then moments later, we bumped into the same dark skinned black women we saw earlier and they told us that their presence wasn't even acknowledged. So like I said even though the food was pretty okay. It wasn't good enough to be okay with the blatant colorism where it wasn't expected. read more

What a perfect little hidden gem right off the beach in Isla Verde. Torres' place has that "beach shack" vibe that makes you want an ice cold beer and a tostone after lounging in the sun or hitting the waves. It's a teeny spot with only about 10 seats, so you may have to wait. We were lucky to go on a cloudy day and snagged a little table. Chicken wings, pulled pork tacos, and the pork stuffed tostones are all yummy. There's an herby green sauce on them that is out of this world. Fresh and bright. Mojito was good, I'd steer clear of the margarita (seems like a mix is used). The OceanLab IPA was local and yummy. read more

Service was great! The young guy with locs was out server who really worked overtime. This place is a watering hole and the dranks strong yall lol. We had the local avocado with pulled pork on top and two chicken tacos. The chicken was boiled not grilled, I would say ok to them but the stuffed avocado was the star. If maybe opt for a different protein but moving forward...it was all good. read more

We usually go next door to Alambique, but they are closed so we gave this place a shot. Very small place. Service was slow, fish tacos were fine, cocktails were overpriced and not very tasty. Seating was not too comfortable. read more

Torres' Place - My pork burrito - Bars Near Me - Carolina, Puerto Rico

do not bother to go anywhere else. This little spot is not only super funky with a great vibe but so so much better than any other place along the beach. The food is fresh, homemade outstanding. Make sure you ask for the owner's daughters homemade hot sauce. Unless you ask for it you won't get it and it is the best I've ever had and I am a hot sauce aficionado . The huge avocado stuffed with shrimp salad, ceviche and tuna tart will blow your mind, pulled pork is amazing and the piña colada the real thing not just a bucket of shaved ice. They are incredibly strong and full of coconut cream and pineapple ....delicious. Can't beat this place read more

Literally one of my favorite spots ever in Isla Verde! Do yourself a favor and come here, I promise you will not be disappointed. The service is impeccable. The ambiance is so chill. The food is absolutely amazing, don't let the cheap prices fool you! This place is oceanfront too. The server Yoli and all the staff is super cool and the owner is dope! I came here one night right when they were closing and they turned the grease back on just so I can get some empanadas. He came out from the back and brought me the food and said "I know we were closing, but if someone's hungry...You feed them!" I will never forget the gesture because I really needed to coat my stomach! I always come here, never been disapponted. read more

Great little beachside dive bar that has some great food on their menu, such as the super fresh ceviche stuffed avocado. You can get any cocktail here from a frozen mojito to a 'Torres Zombie'. It's an open air bar, which faces the ocean and pumps out loud Salsa beats. TVs Play various sports, decor is license plates from around the world and a large painting of a dozen salsa artists hangs proudly across from the bar. It feels like Puerto Rico, here! read more

Good spot to walk up off the beach. Its small but there were seats available so we say and had a few drinks. The server (i think he may have even been the owner) was nice and chatted with us a bit about a cocktail and made some modifications for us which turned out to be really good! We did not eat so i cannot comment on the food but they did have a food menu as well. read more

Torres' Place - Mojito and rum cocktail (similar to a rum punch) - Bars Near Me - Carolina, Puerto Rico

Torres' Place is such a cute place to eat and very convenient after a long beach day. The drinks are good and the food is overall pretty good. At first we overlooked it because of the more popular bar next door. Save your money and go to Torres' Place. The food comes out fast, the drinks are delicious and the waiters are so polite and patient. Everyone I go to Isla Verde Beach I stop here for a cold parcha mojito and the crazy fries read more

The food was amazing! Drinks were great! Service was on point. We loved the empanadas and tacos! Wish I were there now!!

While my friends were waiting in line to order food and coffee from the overbusy, trendy spot next door, I moseyed over to this dive just a few feet from Playa Alambique and Playa de Isla Verde. Within about 10 minutes, I had a fish ceviche-stuffed avocado in hand, which I promptly devoured under an umbrella on the beach. Simple, fresh, and satisfying. The avocado was enormous and not quite ripe, though this was probably intentional so it maintained some of its structure and integrity while cutting into it. That being said, I think a few pinches of salt would have helped with both seasoning and texture. The fish wasn't overflowing per se, but there was a respectable amount and it was spongy and citrusy and made for a light meal before taking your shirt off for the world to see. Cool spot and if it weren't so early in the morning, I probably would've gone back for a drink (although who checks the time on vacation anyway). read more

Torres' Place - Ceviche Stuffed Avocado - Bars Near Me - Carolina, Puerto Rico

I wish I could give it more stars. The food is outrageously good. The beach is across the street so it's a fabulous view. We went a couple of times during our stay. We had the burrito, pollo (chicken) nachos, a pollo (chicken) sandwich with avocado, fries, and crazy fries over a few days. It's an island so it's a little bit of a wait, but not too long. The view distracted us. Service was also good. read more

Torres' Place - Crazy fries - Bars Near Me - Carolina, Puerto Rico

I was at Isla Verde Beach today. Got to be around 1:00 and started thinking about lunch. Saw some good reviews for Torres' Place and decided to try it out. So glad I did! I had the stuffed avocado, which was half an avocado piled high with chicken. Delicious! This place is right on the beach. It is tiny, very casual, but the service was good. If you are near Isla Verde Beach and looking for lunch, I highly recommend Torres' Place. read more

Fantastic food. Tostones with spicy crab and plain were delicious. Great view of the beach. Friendly service.

Torres' Place has the best food in San Juan. If you are looking for a delicious quick stop to eat on your beach day, consider no other place than this.

Our concierge recommended this at our hotel - it was a very casual local spot with great drinks and food with a beachfront view. We ordered the quesadillas, stuffed tostones and turnovers along with a few piña coladas. The cilantro cream sauce that came with the quesadilla is a must to try - very tasty!

We stopped by for lunch when Alambique Lounge next door quoted us a 2-hour wait, and we are so glad we did! Everything was perfect -- from the beach view to the owner's and servers hospitality, the huge portions of tasty food (stuffed avocado, quesadilla and turnovers all ) and the best mojito I had during our time on the island. Great music and vibes, too. Don't miss this place -- it is a really special spot in Isla Verde. read more
