    Seafood
    Jennifer L.

    Very good place to get away from all the tourists. The night we went they had live jazz and they were able to sit all 6 of us with no issues. The food was good and the service was good- just note that it takes a while to get your food. We were seated at 7 and did not get our food until 9!

    I've eaten all over the world. This is one of my new top restaurant choices for customer service and flavor! They will likely take your temperature at the door along with some hand sanitizer. Love how they seated us immediately, served my table water and brought a bread basket with the most delicious mix of garlic-butter. Bread was warm and soft , Sangria was amazing, and the salmon...WOW! They checked back with our table throughout our meal, made sure our sangria glasses were never empty (until our pitcher ran out) , and really made us feel as if we were their most important clients in the restaurant. I hope to come Back soon!

    Friendly staff. Food is terrible, way over priced, salty and does not taste good. Waited over 1.5hrs for the food to come out. We tried so many dishes and none of them tasted good.

    Great food, FRESH!!! And good service as well :). Highly recommended if u looking for a good seafood restaurant. Oh yeah, the drinks here is amazing too, and the live music singer is great too!

    Red snapper with cheese and tomato

    Maybe Marisqueria Atlantica and I got off on the wrong foot when my friend and I walked in with flip flops, in t-shirts/shorts, and partly covered in sand. No one warned me older folks would be having business lunches. Nor that the waiters would be wearing formal nautical uniforms. Oops. All that aside. The first thing that was slightly off putting was the cold and aloof air of our waiter- all I got were vibes of judgment and disdain (was it really that crazy that we were coming from the beach 100 yards away?). Totally unusual for Puerto Rico where people are so warm. The food (mostly seafood) was decent- but nothing to write home about. My friend's swordfish was a bit bland- if it weren't for the stir fried wild mushrooms that accompanied it, the dish would have been very bland. My red snapper with cheese and tomato (a combo I haven't had on fish before) was pretty good and probably the better of the two dishes. But frankly, it's generally pretty hard to mess up a dish that includes cheese and tomatoes. That ish makes almost anything good. The back dining room has a nice garden view- this I appreciated. Other than that, the restaurant seems to think it's much more high brow than it actually is. Lots of more down to earth spots with better (and cheaper!) food in the area.

    This is amazing place food, wine and desserts to die for. The service is fantastic and the ambience very special. They also have little fish and food market inside!

    How Google Maps Almost Killed Me Sitting in our hotel room at Intercontinental we decided on seafood, and according to yelp and google maps this restaurant was a 7 minute walk away. With baby stroller in tow we leave the hotel. 25 minutes later, through some questionable neighborhoods and past a graveyard we still haven't arrived. My travel mates are hungry and not entertained. I stare at my phone wondering how technology could lead me wrong. If this meal is less than stellar I'm probably going to be found dead on a San Juan beach. How Marisqueria Atlantica Saved Me. The fact that I'm writing this and my travel mates are still friends with me is testament to how good Atlantica is. The only weakness is language. It's best to speak Spanish to the waiters. Somehow a glass of red wine and half bottle of white became a bottle of white. We gave up and drank it. They specialize in seafood and do a wonderful job. The grilled octopus, while not as good as I've had in Spain , had a nice garlic seasoning and not rubbery. I greatly enjoyed the paella. The rice was drier and less sticky than traditional Valencia paella and contained lobster in addition to other seafood. Not traditional but a definite winner. Other well received dishes at our table were the red snapper with manchengo cheese and shrimp tostones The best part ? The bill. 3 apps, 3 entrees and bottle of wine = $117 before tip and after tax. Fantastic, affordable food and saving me from wrath of my comrades ? 5 star --- no question. -------------------------------- 1.Take a cab 2.Not vegetarian friendly (like most of Puerto Rico ) 3.Try the fantastic garlic butter they serve with bread.

    Great seafood restaurant in Puerto Rico. The paella was fantastic and only cost $22. You get a healthy serving and it is topped with lobster. Many other restaurants charge much more than that and you don't get nearly as much seafood. I had a generous serving of scallops, which were also good. I think there 10-12 scallops on my plate along with sides. My mom ordered this fish (can't remember the name), but they de-boned it right at the table. She thought it tasted pretty good too.

    Salad
    Julie D.

    This place is interesting. I mean, I must have been confused when I picked this restaurant. First off, it's a little hard to find. Siri couldn't do it. Then the parking lot. No place to park. But, the valet took our car off our hands. The people here are nice enough. And without a reservation, we got a table right away. Service seemed to be attentive and the interior of the restaurant was pleasant enough. As for me, I had a difficult time finding something that I wanted to order. So, I opted to start with a salad. It was huge. But could not identify some of the ingredients. But it did have tomatoes and hearts of palm. It was okay. BJ got one of the evening specials, it was a seafood dish which included fish, prawns, scallops, clams, mussels, squid and 1/2 of a lobster tail. It was okay, but the lobster was overcooked. For my meal, I got the Tostones & Shrimp with Manchego Cheese appetizer. I didn't really like it. The plantains were hard and the cheese was tough. I ended up removing it and didn't eat it. Maybe we ordered the wrong things. And at the end of our meal, our server seemed to get lost and we had to trip someone to get them to bring us our check so we could leave. Sorry to say, this was not a good experience.

    "Paella" marinera
    april c.

    Hmmmm...let me start with this: we are not picky eaters and we don't mind paying good money for good food, but it better be worth it. In this particular case, this was NOT worth our $70 tab which included a whole fried snapper (flavorless) that came with tostones and the paella marinera. This was not paella! This was merely seafood rice that included over cooked seafood. We've had way better food in PR and paid the same price with drinks! We were sadly underwhelmed....

    A whole lota Lobster Linguine, lobster was tough sauce ratio was prefect

The Alcapurria was delicious of Smith's first time having it. The portions are large enough to share. Or have leftovers. You are so lucky to meet the owner. The super friendly gentleman he gave us the backstory of why he started this restaurant. Changing his diet helped him recover from cancer. And it was about the way he ate. So he wanted to share this opportunity with meat eaters. So the whole goal of his restaurant is vegan food for meat eater so they can see that they are not missing anything. The owner also is a famous DJ. He has a talk show radio. And he's been doing it since the 70s. It was a lovely experience my Bestie found this restaurant for me. Because I'm a vegan/sometimes pescatarian. I don't get to try all the foods. It was such a lovely experience.

Stick to what this place is good at, arepas. They load it to the max and their assortment of sauces are pretty impressive. One thing I gotta say though, $10 for an orange juice is egregious at any level. I could be at the four seasons in Bali and that would still make me raise my eyebrows. Even then I ordered it like a doof and it was like 3/4 ice!! C'mon yall, just take it off the menu if it's like that. Overall, the 24-hour aspect is nice and the food is decent. I can see myself paying a premium after a long night out, but just watch what you get because that bill can run up quick.
