Empanadas
Pilar S.

Recently relocated to Puerto Rico and was looking forward to trying the local cuisine. Interesting place. High level food truck and beverage bar. They kept the area clean. Ambiance is very relaxed, with gentle breezes from the nearby coastline. Our server was a bit standoff-ish but the other servers that tended to us in her absence were nice. We had the pastor tacos and the empanadas. The empanadas were amazing. Should have just doubled our order of those and passed on the tacos. The meat was good on the tacos but tortillas really brought down the taste. Ate the meat and left the tortillas. We will be back, if only for empanadas !!

Holy shizzzzzz the ceviche nachos were bomb!!! Super simple ingredients, including sweet chili was surprisingly is very good !! Service was excellent, clean, open air seating & I basically licked my plate clean! Might get this again b4 we leave PR

We were staying at dorado Del Mar Aquarius resort.We wanted to have some Taco.Vagón is amazing.Me being a vegetarian I needed a veg taco and my husband loved the chicken taco.We did a to go and the wait was long almost 40 minutes hence if you have plans to take a to go make sure you order before hand.The food tastes yummy.

This place was awesome!!!! Be aware menu is in Spanish so be prepared to translate or ask for help. Did I say this place was awesome??? I hate beer. I drank beer today in the hot Puerto Rican sun and loved it. The flavors of the meat were all perfection. Jeeeeeeesus this place was awesome Just go there.

When in Puerto Rico try Mexican food lol. Recommend by my cousin a local favorite spot. I am told. It seems to be a popular place. You cam make reservations. They have a capacity limite on restaurants so I recommend to make a reservation. The restaurant is casual. It has an outdoors large section and plenty of parking. They take your temperature and spray your hands with alcohol, no spray no in. masks are required. I ordered fish tacos. It was about seven dollars for two. They came with chips and little side of beans. They where good. They tasted good. I was happy with my selection. The order came in a take-out box . We where a big group of six and we all got a covered take-out box with plastic silverware. I actually liked that. It felt safe. My cousin ordered the sangria. They brought him a big bottle lol. It seems that's how they sell it here. He seems really happy and tipsy. He said it was strong. I tried the seviche nachos. That was good. I really like it. I had a good time. Food was good . The place was diferent and the staff was professional

Omg this place is soooo bomb!!!! The tacos are sooo amazing.. it was my first time eating here. I'm not from here. Came into town for my birthday and the spices was just perfect. Now that i know about it I'll be back when i come back into town to visit.

New menu items!

Get the fish tacos! This is a laid-back spot offering outdoor seating only and everything was great. Quick service, too.

Nachos Machos

Vagón is my go-to casual spot in Dorado. I alternate between the fish tacos and the Texas chicken tacos, because they're both amazing. I've also enjoyed everything from the quesadillas to the Nachos Machos which are indeed macho - more than I can eat alone. They have a covered outdoor patio, as well as an uncovered section for when you want to enjoy the sunshine. They also have live music on Thursdays and the vibe is fantastic. They have great friendly service in Spanish and English, and the atmosphere is always fun and relaxed. This is the spot where I take friends who are visiting and do casual business lunches often.

This place is kinda spartan, first-come, outside , but mostly under a covering, tables. It is among…read morefast food restaurant chains in this hood, but this is an interesting original. We waved as we walked in to a waiter, pointed to a seemingly available picnic table, and he waved that we were good to go, so we sat right away, at 7:45p...after that more tables opened up. Drinks: 1. Pina colada - no bueno...like a coconut ice, not pina colada. 2. Passion fruit juice with fresh mint - delicious! 3. Cherry juice drink with alcohol - wife liked it, and I thought it was good. Appetizers: 1. Beef empanadas- I thought the crust overpowered the meat and onion, but daughter and wife loved it. 2. Nachos - terrible. Chips were stale and cheese/beans covering was bare, but then they gave us additional refried beans in a little cup, and straight I thought the refried beans were delicious. 3. Baha fish tacos - phenomenal!!! Entrees: 1 Chicken fajitas: disappointing. The spicing was off, on the chicken, and the guacamole was mostly sour cream. 2. Steak fajitas: very good and way better than the chicken Service was quick and the staff knew their stuff, but it took a long time to get the bill because other tables came in.

The atmosphere is really great with chill, welcoming vibes. Service staff is friendly and…read moreattentive. The Baja fish tacos are amazing. Fresh and crispy, delightful. Get them.
