Review #1,048 Posted on 4.28.26 We came here for lunch while in town in late April, on Friday the 24th. We were hungry after drive back from rain forest El Yunque. This was one of the better meals I had while in the Carolina/San Juan area of PR. They're famous for their chicken. We tried the pork, pork spare ribs, & rotisserie chicken. We also got the sweet plantain, Puerto Rican rice too. Out of the 3-4 places I ate the rice at, this spot was the best one. The food was excellent, so tender and flavorful too. The pork fell right off of the rib bone, and the pull pork was so tender and good. The prices here are beyond fair, you can get a good amount of food for a really good price. You can tell why there was a line that was pretty long when we arrived, for sure a reputable tourist spot that no doubt holds up to their reputation. read more

At least 4 people recommended Bebo's prior to my first time on the island, and I'm so glad I tried it! My group loved it so much we ate here twice! It's conveniently located close to the airport, and for the amount of food we ordered you couldn't beat the price. We loved everything we ordered, especially the arroz con gandules and pernil. Definitely recommend to anyone! read more

Delicious bbq spot on the way to the airport. Place had outdoor seating only. Ready made delicious food. The woman behind the counter was definitely not the friendliest and the pernil was a tad on the dry side but well seasoned. I also had the yuca and tried the roast chicken which was delicious. read more

Bebo's BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Carolina, Puerto Rico

Bebo's BBQ is hands down one of the best spots to eat in Puerto Rico, and it has become our very first stop every time we arrive. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions. The BBQ meats are perfectly cooked, smoky, and juicy, and the sides taste just like home-cooked comfort food. What I love most about this place is the atmosphere--it's casual, laid-back, and you really feel the local vibe as soon as you walk in. The staff is quick and friendly, even when it gets busy, and the service never disappoints. Whether you're just landing at the airport or heading out, Bebo's is the perfect place to kick off your trip with authentic Puerto Rican flavors. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the island--this is a must! read more

An absolute must. Either the first meal when you land or your last stop before you fly out. The chicken is excellent, as are the ribs. You can expect a lot of grease and even more flavor. It's not quite a white tablecloth situation. The meal is messy and the dining area is commensurate. You may need to fend off pigeons and chickens from your crumbs. And bird watchers may identify other avian diners as well (I spotted a Greater Antillian Grackle perched in the rafters). As to portion and price, a half chicken, a pound of ribs and two sides (I go for the rice and sweet plantains) plus drinks will feed four and run you less than $30. read more

Outstanding delicious must have food! Had the half a chicken maduros tostones and arroz con gandules and wow wow wow! Everything was delicious and well cooked. I can see why a line forms as you get a good quantity of food for a good price. This is a good spot to have lunch or dinner outdoors . Def have to come here if you're in PR. read more

Bebo's BBQ - Chicken maduros tostones and rice - Barbeque Near Me - Carolina, Puerto Rico

I came here after the airport as everyone else does when landing. I'd say the dishes are good when hungry. I was lucky enough not to get a huge long line but if I did, I probably would not feel it's that worth it. I felt the meat was a bit more on the fatty, greasy side. Also, salty unless you add sauce. But the maduros were great. read more

Great local spot, 5 minutes away from SJU airport! There's always a line so you know it's good. Tried all the bbq meats - and everything was tender and marinade in good bbq sauce. Sides are also decent and portions are huge. Great quality for the price. They only have outdoor seating but so it can get hot and humid during the day but overall, good food! read more

Bebo BBQ will always be my first food stop every time I'm in Puerto Rico. Bebo's invites you to experience a piece of Puerto Rican culture as soon as you touch down. The fact that it is only 5 minutes from the airport is amazing. My wife and I pulled with our luggage and all. The food is authentic and tastes like everything was marinated with love! Although it's right outside the airport it's a calm atmosphere with birds and roosters walking around. I love the food! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. read more

The chicken was hands down the best thing I ate on my trip. It was so good I got it for my last meal before heading to the airport. It is so juicy, tender, and flavorful. I'll be dreaming about it u til I can get it again. The maduros was the next best thing we ate, it was super sweet. The roast pork and mofongo was not my favorite but I think it was just a personal preference. The service was great, little to no English but still easy to order since their menu has pictures. read more

If you'll eat anywhere in Puerto Rico make sure this is the spot. Prices are phenomenal and everything is hot and fresh. I didn't get too adventurous with some of the more interesting options but I tried all of the meats and they were all amazing. The line might seem intimidating but it moves quick. read more

I came here finally because everyone always talks about it. So I ordered a lot too much for one person but I wanted to try the different things. So I ordered all the meats the morcilla, pork ribs, pernil, chicken, chicken sausage and arroz con guadules. I enjoyed the chicken and the pork ribs with the rice. The morcilla was ok and I did not like the chicken sausage. The pernil was ok but it was not memorable. I also ordered a tamarind juice and it was overly sweet but as the ice melted it helped it taste better. There is usually a line but it moves fast so just wait. Now is it a must stop; depends on the person for me it was a one and done unless it's the middle of the night and I'm hungry and nearby. It is a basic set up with tables and chairs it has open air but does have a roof. The price was doable and I got a lot of food so if you are a large group; this is a good deal. read more

Food was good and nice variety and portions. The service was a bit unfriendly at the counter. Very popular place and worth a stop if you don't mind the impersonal experience ordering. It says barbecue, but it's more like roasted items. No barbecue sauces... read more

#1 spot to hit when you land in PR. Close to the airport and delicious every single time. Plenty of parking and open-air seating. Wait time fluctuates but the line moves fairly quickly! Very casual laid back atmosphere. read more

This was the first restaurant we ate at when we landed in PR. Generally very good authentic food. We were confused at how we ordered and had to kinda figure it out on the spot while we reached the front to order. You order food by the pound. 1/2 pound is plenty for 1 person and prices are very reasonable! There is outdoor seating and the restaurant is by the airport so you can see planes take off while you're eating. The people helping are very nice and patient with us first timers. Although the seating is outdoors, everything is very clean. read more

The chicken was amazing and so were the plantains. I also had rice and beans with mofongo. I've never had mofongo that wasn't stuffed before but I loved the flavors in this. The rice I was not impressed with at all I just wanted to taste everything. I'd try it again but I would rush to get here. read more

At around 7 PM, there was a line, but it moved quickly. You have the option to dine in or take your food to go, and it's very budget-friendly. We ordered chicken sausage, half a chicken, rice, beans, and sweet plantains--all for just $14. I was like yes I'm going to save some money tonight. The food tasted good, with the chicken being well-seasoned and the rice delicious. However, I found the sausage a bit dry for my liking. read more

So so sooooo good. We came here yesterday and had to come back again today. The fresh passion fruit drink is to die for!!! Rice, meat and yucca are also very good. Overall a very cheap, fast, and good quality eatery. read more

Local-amazing food. It is open from morning to well past midnight, and the line is always present....but it goes fast. You can tell it's local because everyone from all walks of life are there...construction workers, cops, business men. The prices are half of what they charge in the states or downtown San Juan. Don't let the price fool you, the food is tremendous! Meat falls- off the bone ribs, juice sausage, and amazing sides. You can't go wrong with whatever you order....be sure to try tamarind-jucie....Puerto Rican favorite! read more

Pretty good food if you get off the plane. Long line to order food and you eat in a covered area outdoors so sometimes, depending on the time of day, it can be pretty hot. If you want some authentic Puerto Rican food as soon as you get off the plane, this is a good spot to try! read more

The ambiance is outside on the open but the place is crowded that's a good thing that made us come here. We got half of chicken and half of chicken sausage with rice and sweet plantains it came up to $14 so you get a lot for your buck. The food is good real good worth it for sure. They are fast on point and your order will be ready quick. With the long line we got our food real fast which I loved. read more

La comida aquí se esta emperorando mano. No entiendo como es posible un restaurant que daba gusto ir se a caido de tal manera. El arroz con gandules desabrió y con el gandul encojido. La yuca seca y sin sabor, y con un baño de cebollas dura. Miren la foto La morcilla con demasiada arroz y sin sabor El cuajito lavenlo bien porfavor! Y el pernil no sabe a na! Ya cierren si es haci que van a seguir cocinando. Las de la caja, no sean tan grosera de por Dios. Créeme que no nos hacen el favor. Somos nosotros el publico que les mantengamos su trabajo y sueldo. No lo recomiendo para nada! No vuelvo! read more

We went straight to Bebo's BBQ right after landing in San Juan--it's less than a 10-minute drive from the airport and so worth it. The food is inexpensive but absolutely delicious. We ordered tostones, pernil, ribs, arroz con gandules, and everything hit the spot. Highly recommend this spot to anyone traveling to Puerto Rico! read more

Fire! This place is right by the airport but definitely gets packed! There is a parking lot right next to it which makes it easy to get in and out. The chicken is amazing, also recommended the rice, batata and tostones. All amazing. I do wish they had some salsa or hot sauce. But even without it their food is great. The portions are great and super affordable. read more

This place ended up being next to our BnB. This is a must! The food was so delicious I was taken back with the flavor! This is the type of flavor when you come to PR. Food was marinated so the flavors were perfect. And the price and portions you cannot beat. This place is always packed but the line moves very quickly. By the time you get your food you're able to find a seat and enjoy! read more

Open 24 hours, This is real puertorrican food.... Without any doubt, this is the local authentic taste of this beautiful island. If you are on a diet, or if you are vegan....skip the place. If you are ready to stuff your face, this is the spot. The location is weird. Right off the highway, literally across the street from the international airport. Only covered outdoor seating available, but in general terms, the place is clean and confortable,... but, extremely busy and noisy at the same time. - Caution: flies and birds may join you for dinner. - The food is ordered at an outdoor counter; once your order is ready, they will scream your name and deliver it in bags including plates, forks and napkins. Very nice staff and good service. The prices are the kicker. The options are very affordable..!!! 10 people can easily get stuffed for less than $70. No kidding. And the food is actually very good. - The chicken is so moist, tasty and delicious. In fact, it was the most moist chicken we had ever eaten. - The ribs were a little too greasy and salty for my liking, but with good flavor. - rice and beans were superb. - The roasted pork leg was very good. - All the side plates are amazing. The fried sausage, the green bananas, yuca , and tostones were the best. Not a Michelin, but Highly recommended. read more

A 24 hour BBQ spot serving meat by the pound. We end up eating here almost every time we travel to Puerto Rico because of their awesome hours, especially when our flight lands at an odd time. It can be hard to find open restaurants sometimes so Bebo's is a gem. The longanisa is crispy and tasty and the lechon is so soft and flavorful. The maduros are massive! read more

Absolutely must try. Our first meal in PR and we absolutely loved it, sweeped off the entire order and felt super happy having authentic tasty high quality food for such less price. And it's right out of the airport. I come fr California and for me half lb of chicken for 4$ is steel deal I've never seen or heard off back home ;) Found this place on Google/Yelp based heavy recommendations and reviews. Ordered fully with my broken Spanish and the sweet lady understood me very well :) Unos pollo medio: out of the world, juicy, tender, well seasoned, perfectly cooked bbq chicken meat ever. Get it !! Huge portions for me and my hubby. The skin is blackened with char of seasonings and juices, wow. Unos Pernil medio: I tasted this pork, very tender and yummy. Unos arroz : the Spanish red rice and peas classic loved it !! Dos maduros : hugggeee ripe bananas sautéed or grilled. Huge bananas. 1 is enoughfor 2 Unos pracha jugo: freshly squeezed passion fruit juice. Delicious af !! We downed it on a scorching hot summer day. Picante salsa : oh ask for this hot sauce. House made. Yummy. read more

Meh. This place was just alright. The food was mediocre in taste, but the portions were great. Service was fine.

The ambiance of this place is amazing! It's open air seating and you can watch the planes landing as it's right by the airport! There's a line spanning the length of the restaurant, so just by that fact alone...no doubt it's going to be good! We're ordering the pork, Mo Fongo, chicken, ribs and sausage! I'll update as soon as we get to the rental! read more
