Sitting outside facing the Atlantic Ocean with the cool ocean breeze was such a beautiful and peaceful experience. The views alone made the stop worthwhile, but I was pleased with the entire experience. The service was great from start to finish. For appetizers, I ordered the Chicharrones de Pollo, which were flavorful and crispy. I also tried one of the mozzarella sticks, but it didn't have that satisfying cheese pull I was hoping for. My man ordered the shrimp mofongo and really enjoyed it, while my brother-in-law was very happy with his snapper fish. For my entree, I chose the Mofongo Relleno de Pollo, a mashed plantain mofongo topped with chicken, and it was delicious. The portion was decent and packed with flavor. For dessert I tried the guava flan. While the flavor was nice, the texture was a bit too tough for my liking. Overall, the food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the oceanfront views were absolutely amazing. If you're passing by the area, Playa Brava is definitely worth stopping by for a meal and a chance to enjoy the scenery.

I ordered the seafood mofongo and the ceviche. The ceviche was its own meal. It was alot. No complaints from me. It was fresh delicious and i can almost taste it writing this review. service was great. The tostones the ceviche came with were crispy hot and garlicky! The seafood mofongo was super good. All fresh seafood in a garlic sauce that complimented the mofongo lovely. I tried some chicharron de pollo as well. Crispy hot and savory. Yes I would love to come back here and try more food and recommend anyone in the area to do the same!

We found this place searching for a different location. It was a great find! The place was very pleasantly designed, the bathrooms were clean, and the staff very helpful and friendly. The food was delicious! The food was also very reasonably priced. There were six in our party. I had the Churasco steak, and a bowl of Cream of pumpkin soup. My sister had the New York Strip steak.My brother-in-law had the Dorado. My niece and nephew had super sized Cheeseburgers. And my daughter had an appetizer of Mozzarela sticks. The dinners came with a choice of sides, we all had Rice and Beans, and the burgers came with fries. The plating was beautiful. All adults (4) had frozen cocktails, and the kids had sodas. We had (4) desserts , (3) Nutella Cheesecakes, and one Creme Brulee. All entree's were to die for, and totalled only $114, a bargain! I highly recommend the restaurant to anyone searching for a good place to dine in the Vega Baja PR area. I certainly will return when I am in PR again!

The flavors were pleasant, just a bit different from what I expected. For example, the guava sauce is blended with soy sauce, giving it a unique twist. The presentation of the dishes is very Americanized, and there was no traditional garlic sauce for the mofongo. Instead, the only option available was a store-bought chimichurri, which didn't quite complement the dish the way a homemade sauce would have.
