Carbón y Leña is a Puerto Rican restaurant located on the westbound side of the #2 main road in Quebradillas, Puerto Rico. The food is delicious & served in large portions. Most of the plates are enough to feed two people. We had a Chorizo Sausages in Wine Sauce appetizer with Fried Plantains, Breaded Chicken Fillets with Salad & Churrasco Steak with a tasty Chimichurri Sauce. All were delicious. There were various birthdays being celebrated to the festive sounds of staff playing traditional instruments. The staff were super attentive & accommodating. The restaurant was large, bright, colorful & festive in its decor. There's also outdoor dining in the front & back of the restaurant. A great place to go especially for families & large groups. read more

This place has the wrong name. I'm not sure what it should be called but carbon y leña is definitely not it. None of the food get anywhere close to any carbon or leña. In fact, as bad tasting as it is, I would say they buy the precooked bags of chicken strips from Costco and they heat it up with the rest of the ingredients. I had the chicken nachos and churrasco with chimichurri sauce. The best part of the nachos were the tortilla chips. Undoubtedly, those were scooped right out of the bag. I'm ok with that. The pico de gallo was tomato chunks without flavor. The churrasco was cooked on site (probably) but pan cooked, possibly a griddle. Not grilled. Their saving grace was actually having some cholula hot sauce. That made the meal "edible" The service, I must say, was pretty descent. You can't blame the servers for the terrible food. The environment is a bit of a plain Jane, wood paneling look withe a few Boriqua decorations. Certainly proud people. I would like to say that this is possibly a place for locals, but I wouldn't want to insult the locals read more

Stopped by for dinner during one of our first nights after seeing how popular it was, and it did not disappoint. My fiancé got a piña colada and I ordered a margarita on the rocks to start and both were really good. I had the grilled chicken with mofongo, which was perfectly cooked, and the lobster mofongo was absolutely out of this world. Service was good and the space was comfortable and spacious. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area! read more

Loved our experience here. Came for lunch and from start to finish enjoyed our food and service. The interior and exterior seating is really big and plenty for a large group. We were a group of six people for lunch and were immediately seated. Everything from the drinks, pina colada, apps, the food, and dessert all tasted great, fresh and authentic food in Quebradillas. Great location! read more

If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience in Puerto Rico, this is the place. What truly sets this restaurant apart is Angel -- he embodies the warmth and hospitality Puerto Rico is known for. Make sure to ask for him when you visit! The food was absolutely incredible and far from your average meal. Every dish was thoughtfully crafted with authentic flavor and flair. My mom couldn't stop raving about the stuffed tostones with octopus -- they were packed with flavor and perfectly balanced. I ordered the skirt steak meal "al campo," and let me tell you: this was hands down the best meal we had during our entire vacation. We visited several fine dining spots on this trip, but nothing came close to the quality, care, and flavor we experienced here. This restaurant deserves every bit of praise. We'll be talking about this meal -- and Angel -- for a long time. read more

Carbón y Leña - This was one of the best by far... 100% recommended - Caribbean Near Me - Quebradillas, Puerto Rico

The food was delicious. Large portions couldn't eat it all had to take home. Best of all was the waiter, Angel. You must ask for him when you go. Explained everything and made good suggestions. I give it a 10+ read more

The food is excellent and the service as well. We ask for one of their signature platters with 'churrasco' (flan steak at grill with a 'house' chimichurri sauce) and 'arroz mampostiado" (a local sauté of mixed rice and beans with veggies and species... uuuf!!!). We do not drink and only have a couple of beers but they have a variety of drinks to satisfy different customers preferences. The facilities are clean and in a good shape also very comfortable and they have an ample parking space. So easy to get there through the PR-2 in Quebradillas. Finally the prices are very good for what you get in the whole dinning experience. Recommended without any reserve. read more

Un amigo le recomendó este lugar a mi hermano, y el a mí, riquísimo. Comida criolla, un ambiente chevere y tremendo servicio. Nuestro grupo era de 6 adultos y 2 niños, pedimos el "barco" para compartir y sobró comida. Vino con Churrasco, pollo, costillas bbq, chuletas can can, chorizo, papas fritas, tostones y arroz mamposte'o. También pedimos la bandeja mixta de aperitivos con bacalaitos, papitas (de plátano), Quesito frito con guayaba, deditos de queso, y sorrulitos. ¡Qué cosa rica! Todavía me estoy saboreando los sorrulitos. read more

After traveling almost 12 hours from Orlando to San Juan, my boyfriend and I decided to try Carbón y Lena as we drove to Aguadilla. Big Mistake! As I approached the hostess desk, I asked if we could be seated on the front patio. The woman became really frustrated but lead us to the area I requested. I explained that we do not speak Spanish as best I could but she gave us both menus only in Spanish. Our server was great, thankfully and she brought us English menus. As we left, I went to the back of the restaurant where the bathrooms there and noticed that the people there were all speaking English as opposed to what appeared to be all locals where we were seated. I believe that this restaurant has an "anti-Gringo' policy and won't return. read more

The food was AMAZING! I had the biggest plate of mofongo I have ever seen! The kids meals are very large and the chicken fingers/tenders were a huge hit! The chicken breast carbonara was amazing and the fries were so fresh and tasty. The piña colada was amazing as well. If I am in the area again, I will definitely make this a stop for sure. I highly recommend it. read more

The only reason I'm even giving three stars is because the staff was very nice. The food was extremely disappointing. The steak was almost unedible as it was very tough and chewy. The rice was over cooked. After 3 bites I did not want to even finish my meal. read more

Carbón y Leña - Steak and rice with sweet plantain interior - Caribbean Near Me - Quebradillas, Puerto Rico

Came here with my family on our last night in Puerto Rico. The restaurant was pretty big. We definitely ordered too much! We didn't realize what we ordered came with rice so my husband ordered additional sides of rice. The food was absolutely delicious, we were so full. We ended taking a lot of it back to our hotel and fed it to the dogs there. The dogs had a huge feast! I really enjoyed all of the seasoned bbq meat and the tostones. The tostones were so flavorful! I recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting this part of Puerto Rico! read more

I can't type much because I'm in a food coma! LOL. This place was beyond amazing! Our waiter Angel was very helpful as we were unsure of what to pick due to so many delicious choices. Our first visit on the way home from Playa Jobos in Isabela. We were hungry and this place did not dissapoint. If you get the opportunity to experience this delicious eatery, you will surely never forget it! Excellent service, excellent food presentation, and excellent taste! I enjoyed a passion fruit margarita along with my El Clásico del Pirata meal. Below are pictures of all of our meals. If you go, please rate them! They are a locally owned restaurant ! I will be returning without a doubt on my yearly trip to PR! read more

If you're in Puerto Rico this is the best restaurant to come to for lunch and dinner. The steak plantain rice drinks, all on point!!!

Everything was amazing!! The waitress was very friendly and attentive. Their juices are made fresh, I definitely recommend the parcha juice. The food came very fast! Not even 20 minutes and plates were arriving at our table. I had El Clásico del Pirata, the meat and mofongo was very well seasoned and flavorful! Even the decorative coleslaw that came on the plate was awesome. It was sweet and complimented the dish well. 10/10!! read more

Good service, questionably good food. Depending on your choice you'll receive a good amazing portion of seafood with "mofongo", or you'll receive a cold stiff steak. A Russian roulette of criollo puertorican dining. read more

Finally was able to stop by. The location is excellent, next to the main #2 road. The restaurant itself is well decorated and parking is very accessible. The interior decoration is nice, not overwhelming or bleak. There's TV monitors, which are not really needed. The servers are very attentive and willing to meet your appetite. The menu is very diverse and the prices are in the average for the type of restaurant. The owner, I believe he was passing the tables and asking about the service. The food portions are big and well displayed. They need to work a little on the seasoning of few meals, but overall was very delicious and will recommend to anyone who wants to have a good meal in a well fashion environment read more

The most fun I've had at a restaurant in Puerto Rico. The food is amazing too. The atmosphere is really great because of the singing and dancing that is done for birthdays. You can tell the employees really are family here. If you are in Puerto Rico and able to get here, get here. You'll have a better experience than any other touristy restaurant you visit. Shoutout: found this place because of a recommendation from our VIP tour guide at the Arecibo observatory. read more

The service was excelent! Food was very good, portions are BIG! Definetely for more than one person!

Fantastic location, lots of food but specialize in sea food. Their service was good, we sat outside so we had to remind the server that we were there a couple of times. Price was a little pricey for PR, but he does quality was amazing. Bathrooms were very clean and serviced. Recommend this location for those seeking a little higher quality of food. read more
