Mofongo relleno de mariscos ( lobster, shrimp, octopus)
Anissa V.

The food portions were enough for two. First time I was served a very good portion of seafood with my mofongo. The waitress was very courteous and attentive. The ambience was nice. I would have to visit again on a Friday.

Vinimos aquí por casualidad y la comida estaba delicioso. Jessyan nos ayudó y el servicio estaba increíble! Cuando regresamos a Puerto Rico volvemos a comer aquí porque todo estaba perfecto.

This is a cafeteria style business. The service is prompt, attentive and friendly. They have a full PuertoRican fare. It is family oriented, Salsa music plays on the radio. The tables are set for 4and a few for 6. They serve alcoholic beverages in a very casual atmosphere. Their food is served hot and everything comes out to order. They're open weekdays 11:00-9:00, on the weekends till 10pm. They are located at the Plaza Del Parque in Bayamón. I loved it. Come check it out!

Toston Jibareño is an excellent choice for those that want real Puerto Rican cuisine, outside the tourist strip. It is located in a strip mall in Bayamon. We had dinner there twice! The service was Excellent on both occasions, different waiters. It is very spacious,, clean, Affordable, and short wait time.

This is an excellent place if you are shopping and want to eat authentic Puerto Rican cuisine with a busy diner/cafeteria style ambiance. There's ample free parking in the strip mall, and restrooms were nice and clean. We arrived at around 1 pm and it was almost full but we found a table for two right away. The server immensely took our drink order, which included a glass of the house Merlot wine ($6) and a Medalla beer served in a cold glass mug. We both had variations of their salmorejo de jueyes(a well seasoned local land crab meat casserole). I had it in a stuffed large half avocado with rice and beans and a side salad, and my sister had it as a casserole with fried plantain tostones and side salad. The jueyes salmorejo was delicious and served in portions. The tostones were nicely done with a crunchy exterior and freshly fried to a perfect golden hue. I didn't find my beans to be particularly tasty, lacking the taste of condiments in a well made sofrito. But, all in all, it was a great experience and I'm definitely returning.

Probably the best meal we've had this entire trip. Highly recommend checking out this restaurant for dinner. Food and drinks were delicious. Portion sizes were on the larger side.

This is a great place to enjoy some good comfort food. The prices are reasonable and the amount of food are big portions and delicious. I had the bistec encebollado con tostones. The staff is very friendly too. So glad we stumbled across this place.

Found this local place by chance and am so glad I came here. I enjoyed every bite of the Aguacate Relleno con Bistec Encebollado y Arroz con habichuelas.

This was by far the best place I had in Puerto Rico. Having lived with a few Boricuas for a few…read moreyears, I was never impressed by Puerto Rican food. It's mostly fried and fatty (sorry) but this place was the opposite! My local guy in Puerto Rico told me I would love it since I told him I wasn't a fan of overly fried foods. So he, my client, and I went there and saw it was super cool and right next to Ft Buchanan Army base! This place was packed with locals, cops, blue collar, business folks.. every kind of person was there and everyone seemed to know each other! They had amazing maduros with chicken, carne, veggies, and rice that was so tasty! We ended up going two days in a row for lunch because it was so fantastic and I cant wait to come back here! Thanks for changing my mind on Puerto Rican food!

What a surprise! This place was far from what I expected! Simple environment, simple menu but…read morebeware, you are in for a treat. I was so grateful that my coworkers took me to this place. I was on line with a bunch of people who knew what they came for: good old Puerto Rican cuisine. I went for the pork stuffed with yuca. In was covered in bacon. What a delight!!! I have never tried this and was ecstatic at the combination of flavors. I had two more carbs as side dishes as if that was not enough. Yuca frita fríes and arroz con longaniza. I was in heaven. I was told by saint Peter that this will be served in the heavenly banquet. I was well beyond full from the serving size but not ashamed of the generosity of their service. No longer could I pretend to have an inspired working dinner. I was a clear recipient of the culinary genius behind this creation. Enjoy!!

One of the hostesses was noticeably rude at the start, which set an uncomfortable tone. After being seated, our waiter hasn't been outright unkind, but there's a clear difference in how we're being treated compared to other guests. As a same-sex couple, it feels like we're not being received as warmly, even though he seems to be making an effort to remain professional. As a Puerto Rican, that's honestly a bit disappointing and feels out of place. That said, the food itself has been very good.

The hot sauce on the table was nice, not too hot but a good kick, I usually do not like habanero based hot sauces but this was good! The Queso Frito was interesting in flavors & textures, delicious. El Conflicto was perfect, all the flavor of a pina colada but without the heaviness of syrups & sugar. The Pollo Borracho was super flavorful & filling, chicken cooked to perfection falling off the bone. My fiancé had the Carne Frita, it was super tender & a well balanced dish. Service was friendly & attentive. My only complaint- we were so full we couldn't even look at the dessert menu! Guess we will just have to go back.

There is absolutely NO signage anywhere in the restaurant stating that flash photography is not allowed. While we were quietly sitting at our table waiting for food, my husband took a quick photo of me with flash. Out of nowhere, Patrick, who identified himself as the General Manager, approached us in an incredibly aggressive and hostile manner and abruptly said "NO FLASH" with an attitude that was completely unnecessary and unprofessional. If there are rules guests are expected to follow, maybe the restaurant should clearly communicate them instead of having management aggressively confront paying customers. I asked to speak to the assistant manager who handled the situation much more professionally and was kind, understanding, and willing to listen. Unfortunately, Patrick's behavior completely ruined the experience and left a terrible impression on what was supposed to be a special birthday dinner. His behavior was racial profiling. No guest should feel singled out, uncomfortable, or disrespected simply for taking a photo when there were no visible rules posted anywhere in the restaurant.

We had come here for an afternoon snack and drinks as we were walking around old San Juana and the forts all day and had gone to one fort and ready to move to the next after a bite. This was the perfect meal to hold us over. Not so greasy and not too filling. The drinks were just average but refreshing after hours in the sun. The atmosphere is casual and busy and loud. However, the service was quick even with them being busy. I highly recommend the beef stew with mofongo and coming here even if it's just for that!

The wait was usual for Old San Juan. About 30-45mins. They take your name down and call you when there's a table ready. What they don't tell you is that the menu is a QR code on the table. Once you figure that you see a well organized and simple 2 pages menu with many PR authentic dishes listed. The waiter comes about 10-15mins later. And it's best to have all your order ready as they don't come back very often. The place is usually packed all the hours that they're open. Food: that's why they lost a star. Rice and beans, Madurai/amarrillos, scurrilous, delicious 5 stars, but the bigger, empanada, chicken with garlic lack the bite that you come to expect of PR food! They lack taste, "Sazon", they were bland and tasted more like someone forgot to season them and forgot the garlic. I'd tell them to go back to their food and make PR food like it's supposed to taste, not for the tourist, please!
