The best food I had in PR! Sooooooo delicious and so much variety!…read more The staff were extremely friendly and even made a custom meal for my bf who is vegan. We even met the chef who was so kind! We got the yuca fries, bone marrow, fava bean tacos, oxtail cannelloni, duck, mahi mahi, black cod, vegan special, chocolate cake, and coconut sorbet! Everything was to die for except the bone marrow which had a super small portion size. The free bread was also amazing! Probably one of the top 3 free restaurant breads I've had. Will 1000000% be back next time I visit PR!

I liked the jovial yet professional service but the food is what made it great. Started with a tuna tartare daily special recommended by the waiter, it was great. Many layers of flavors and the tuna and avocado was fantastic. I then had the ribeye (the smaller one, at only 20 oz :-)) and it was one of the best steaks I've ever had. For those who haven't seen my other reviews, I've been to hundreds of the best steakhouses, from NY to Chicago to Las Vegas to London, and while this wasn't a steakhouse it was fantastic. A nice think ribeye, perfect marbling but they also got the medium rare exactly as it should be, with an incredible char on the outside. I would fly back to Puerto Rico just to have this steak again. I also liked the crispy brussel sprouts and the asparagus were excellent, larger portion than you get elsewhere and nice thick asparagus. Finished with the I think 7 layer coconut cake, which I thought was the nicest dessert (split it with my wife's key lime pie, also good, and daughter's carrot cake donuts). Can't wait to go again.

It was absolutely packed with tender, flavorful chicken. Definitely a solid start. For my entrée, I had the Mero en salsa de coco, and it was divine. The sauce reminded me of a Thai-style coconut curry, with peppers and onions that added a little sweet heat. The fish was tender and melt-in-your-mouth soft. Pure comfort and flavor in every bite. On the side, I went with the arroz y habichuelas. It was solid, though I do wish the beans had a touch more salt or adobo to really bring out the flavors. Still enjoyable, just could've used a little extra seasoning to match the boldness of the main dish. Overall, a beautiful dining experience with rich, comforting flavors and generous portions.

If you're looking for a vegetarian dish definitely give it a try! My brother got the NY stripe with rice and beans. It was a nice thick piece of steak cooked perfectly medium. I had the churrasco and risotto, so good! The seasoning was perfect, it was full of flavor and tender. The risotto was delicious, but rich - I'd recommend it! The portion of risotto was crazy big. My husband got the chicken alfredo, which I thought was an odd choice, but he said it was very good! Overall everyone loved their meal. I'd highly recommend it!

I ordered a cocktail called Mula de Oro which was insanely delicious. For my main course I ordered the grouper appetizer (fish strips) with a side order of arroz mamposteado. It was the perfect meal! The grouper was lightly breaded and fried. It wasn't oily at all and very flavorful. The rice was also very delicious. It had the perfect amount of "sabor". The portions are generous but I did order dessert just to try the flan de queso. Zero regrets, it was delicious and unlike any other dessert I've ever had. Just imagine cheesecake merging with flan drizzled with caramel... The service was great, both Spanish & English are spoken here so don't be intimidated if you're not a native. The ambiance is casual with outdoor and semi indoor seating and parking is available.
