    BEAUTIFUL VIEW
    Heather A.

    This open air restaurant is absolutely beautiful. The food is phenomenal and the service is just as good. The owner came out to greet us and was so kind and welcoming. Wherever you plan to travel in PR you should definitely find this restaurant, even if it means going out of your way. If you plan to dine here just know that when you think you couldn't possibly be headed in the right direction...just keep going. You're almost there. I don't have any pictures of the food, but here is one of the view!

    Hoy nos fuimos de almuerzo viernes 8 de octubre de 2021. Tienen el menu a la carta y también tiene el especial de almuerzo el cual puedes ver y seleccionar. Lo puedes comer en el amplio salón comedor. El comedor es sin aire acondicionado pero no hace falta. Fresco y agradable aunque un poco rústico. Necesita amor y cariño el salón para que esté upgrade. El almuerzo delicioso y buen servicio.

    This place is too good for words. The most amazing food, and hospitality to match. It has a great view to enjoy while you eat and also a great spot for tourists to take photos. I can not emphasize enough, this is the best place to visit in Puerto Rico; and possibly the best place in the world! Buen provecho./ Este lugar es demasiado bueno para las palabras. La comida más increíble y la hospitalidad a la altura. Tiene una gran vista para disfrutar mientras comes y también un gran lugar para que los turistas tomen fotos. No puedo enfatizar lo suficiente, este es el mejor lugar para visitar en Puerto Rico; y posiblemente el mejor lugar del mundo! Buen provecho.

    Great views! Also the food was very good. Traditional creole cuisine, with the casaju twist. If dining with company, start with th casaju sampler. Great ropa vieja!! Go for the mofongo either with carne frita, churrasco or shrimp. Also if craving something hot go for the rabbit stew. Desserts are ok, but nothing to rave about. Definitely coming back!

    Great view and food. Recommend the rabbit stew. Suggest they grow their own vegetables to go with home grown meat.

    Nice Place, been coming here for 10 years is good prices are high but the food is really good. Service is a bit slow.

    The best meal we've had on the island hands down. And that doesn't even speak to the view!!! I'm in love with churrasco but this, with the creamy sauce in mofongo was to die for. My husband had the salmon, which was also delicious! And after half a pitcher of house sangria, I was ready to spend the night on the multi-level decks. Thankfully I had a driver. :) great little place in the middle of the island- well worth a drive from wherever u are.

    Churrasco is the best thing here. But all the other things in menu are also delicious!

    I discovered this beautiful restaurant just one day before leaving Puerto Rico, and I'm so grateful…read moreI did. The food was some of the best I've ever tasted, and the entire experience was unforgettable. From the beautiful sounds of the coquí in the background to the stunning structure and ambiance of the restaurant, everything felt truly special. I had the pleasure of enjoying the experience with my very handsome husband, and I couldn't have asked for a better moment. The women who served us were kind, patient, and welcoming, and the restaurant was beautifully lit, creating a warm and romantic atmosphere. Every dish we ordered was exceptional. My husband, being as kind and supportive as he is, always lets me order everything my eyes desire, even when he knows I'll never be able to finish it all. I love that I get to enjoy every bite to my heart's content--and sharing those moments with him makes the experience even more meaningful. Great food, a beautiful setting, and an even better partner made this one of the most memorable dining experiences of my trip to Puerto Rico. I only wish I had discovered this place sooner!

    The views from this place are amazing. Such a cute farm to table restaurant. Came here for lunch…read moreafter a coffee tour so we were hungry. It was a. Nice breezy day and we got to sit right by the pond. The service is a little slow so we were a little rushed at the end eating since we had a 90 min drive back to the Arecibo area for a tour. Our waitress was nice but seemed a bit busy/distracted. So we didn't get as much attention to order quickly and have our drinks come out, etc... We ordered drinks to start. We also got a water for the table and just remember you have to pay per person for waters... we ordered a few apps/small dishes to share including the tomato with balsamic which was basically a caprese salad.They were out of the watermelon salad (which was a pitty after she told us about it and it was a special and we were then craving it. They had not opened until 11:30 which is when we went so just seems like they didn't have the ingredients/plan for the ingredients). We also got the LENTILS WITH TOMATO SOFRITO, COCONUT WATER, ANNATTO OIL, HERBS, AND CRISPY PLANTAIN. SERVED WITH COCONUT RICE. This was my absolute favorite dish. Just so much flavor butting in your mouth. I had gotten. Mojito drink which was also very refreshing. For my meal, I was feeling the fish since it was one of the popular dishes. It did take a while to come out but it was deliciously seasoned and garnished. It came with a side and I had gotten the beans and rice. I just could not finish it all since we had to rush to a tour since the food took a while to come out. Overall, we all had full tummies and enjoyed our food. The service could have been a bit better with the waitress being more attentive but it was a gorgeous day and we're glad we experienced this place.

I was a little disappointed that from the building you really couldn't see any coffee plants up close like I had hoped. The restaurant was also closed during our visit so we just visited the coffeeshop and sat out of the patio. The coffee was good but the pastries were just okay. I bought 3, 1-lbs bags of coffee and it cost $70. Which makes me think this place is more tourist attraction than anything approaching an authentic coffee farm. Did the peacocks give it that away? With that in mind, it's a beautiful albeit out the way place to sit and drink a cup of coffee. If you'd like a tour plan your visit during the weekend! Don't be like me.

The food was good (especially the churrasco), but this was a very expensive meal. Like, "Holy hell is that correct?!"-when they bring you the check level expensive. We would go back for those drinks, but I would need to sell a couple of non-vital organs before we could afford to go back for a full meal.
