The flavor was ridiculous in the best way possible, the shrimp was perfectly cooked, and the tostones were notably fresh. 10/10- you MUST go. Out of all of the gumbo variations I've had from countless regions, Puerto Rico's is my favorite. Particularly from La Cueva Del Mar. Our server, Nicole, was an angel. She is SO SWEET. She made the experience even better!!! It was packed and very loud at 7pm on a Thursday, which is a nonissue for me, but if your party prefers a quiet meal, be mindful of timing.

My wish that night was to find a place offering fried whole snapper and it was on their menu - and I even called ahead to be sure it was available that night. So I was hyped to try their snapper version, and it didn't disappoint. The vibe of the restaurant was that of a friendly neighborhood joint, possibly a bit retro time-wise. Service was prompt and informative. We both had cocktails, and Paige said it was one of the best whisky sours she's had. With the snapper - which was HUGE - I had an order of mamposeao, a rice and bean stew that was amazing. My wife's chicken parm also got a great review from her. We parked in the small lot directly in front of the restaurant, and there was an attendant to help with parking.

The server was accommodating and got us a seat for our party of 4 very quickly. I believe it was a one man show that night and he was running between all the tables, but was very efficient and had a great attitude which made any waiting we might've had to do worth while. The inside was clean and had a good vibe with nice music playing. Our table shared as an appetizer the green chile ceviche, which was very good and could itself be enough for a main meal for two people. My wife got the quesa-birria tacos and I got the governor shrimp tacos. All were great meal choices, the tacos were stuffed with meat and very filling. A great spot for people looking for some tasty Mexican food in San Juan.

Ordenamos las tostadas de camarones (mi plato favorito), tacos de pescado, y los frijoles. Todo estaba sabroso. Las porciones y el precio eran muy razonables.

The order of beans was also good, reminded me of my childhood meals lol. Space is tight, but you'll get seated quickly as the staff are pretty attentive.

They attempted to seat us at a postage stamp sized table barely bigger than the napkin holder sitting on top of it. No thanks. The food quality has taken a steep decline. My "sea" scallops were tough, chewy, and hard like small bouncy rubber balls. The clam chowder was "off" if that makes sense. Didn't quite taste fresh and had a lot of gritty texture to it. The garlic shrimp was quite paltry. Tiny tail-on shrimp that quite honestly reminded be of a bag of frozen from the supermarket. Ceviche was ok, but not enough to make up for the rest of this train wreck. Due to poor execution of nearly every dish, Will not return.
