Edelweiss Medium platter
La'Krista D.

Great customer, decent food amazing drinks!! There is only one stall per (men and woman) so there is a bit of a wait on the bathroom. Clean restaurant. We had the passion fruit margarita and Mango kiwi Mojito. Both were great. Michael was very kind and confident in his suggestions. We had the Edelweiss medium sampler. Very filling and enough to share with 2-3 people. The mozzarella sticks were good, The guava sauce was good, the wings were good. Definitely a great spot for drinks.

After hiking, the tour guide suggested this place and you can see it was a busy area. The waiter came and took our orders. I wanted to try their tostones mixed with breadfruit he asked someone in the back kitchen and informed me it wasn't available. So I was able to try the spicy crab stuffed in plantains, although it said spicy it wasn't spicy to me. All the food came out fresh. It is covered but you do feel like you're outdoors due to you can hear the people along the back.

Lobster Mofongo

I stopped by after a trip to El Yunque. I ordered a mojito and a mofongo with lobster. The mojito was mediocre. I'm still looking for the liquor because it wasn't in that drink. The mofongo was pretty good (4/5), but not something that I would come to this restaurant for ever again. And for $27, I had hoped for a 5/5. They offered several different sauces, but I don't think any of them would've elevated it to a 5/5. The ambiance was fine. It's a busy restaurant on the beach. The service was fine. I didn't have a bad experience. But there are better spots out there. Had I checked the Yelp reviews like I normally do, I would've probably gone elsewhere.

Menu

Fun fact, my Nana is Puerto Rican so I grew up eating and being surrounded by Puerto Rican culture....all of this reminded me of her house and brought me back to being raised in the culture. (Pictures do not do this place justice) Y'all, I will definitely be back! Ok, ok - let's get the details out of the way.... Mini alcapurias (I'll be honest, before this trip, I was NOT fan..but I'm a convert. Though, apparently this spot isn't the best for it Mofongo...in true Ms.BigBack fashion, I got the bifongo (sweet plantain & green plantain)...homie got the trifongo (sweet + green plantain + cassava) - not gonna hold you, I wouldn't have minded getting this. I'm just not a cassava fan. Rice and beans and pork chop...bruhhhhh..this REALLY took me back to my Nana on 41st street! Shoutout to our waiter and the rest of the staff. Super hospitable & were nice enough to guide us through the menu Definitely recommend!

My parents live in Luquillo and I've been visiting since I was a little girl, so I've been to the kiosks many many times, including Edelweiss. However on this last visit, we had a large party and requested outdoor seating. When we there, they had given us an indoor room and had everything set up really nicely in there. But, when we mentioned the mix up, they were SO NICE and accommodating, very quickly moving us to a big table on the patio despite some of us saying we totally didn't have to move. To make things 2x even better, that changed our waiter to a guy I've known for years from his work at Panderri (he moved to Edelweiss recently), and he was even better than normal. He (Michael) is a wonderful person and employee - don't lose him! Lastly, sometimes it is rare to find service to gringos that makes you feel just as welcome and warm as the locals are treated (not that my parents aren't considered locals, but no one knows that looking at them ). From hosting to managers to serving staff, it's just not very common unfortunately unless you're in a super touristy area like SJ. Edelweiss was the opposite - so friendly and warm to us the entire time, treating everyone the same and with the same respect and kindness. We are a pretty La Parilla-loyal family, but we are sooo excited to have learned Edelweiss is every bit as good - even better in most aspects - and this is definitely going to be our new regular place! There are so many restaurants that have extremely similar or even identical menus, but Edelweiss elevated every option we got. We spent most of the meal saying "wow, this is twice as good as it is at _____!" Was it revamped or redone/new ownership in the last few years? I just don't remember it being so amazing many years ago. Anyway - 10/10 food, service, and aesthetics/ambiance! We'll be back again and again (pic of my parents Bill & Teri here so you know who they are!).

Skirt Steak Mofongo and Chicken stuffed avocado

Their skirt steak mofongo and chicken stuffed avocado were good. Service is really slow and our food took a long time to come out. We came back a couple days later but left after waiting over 20 minutes for our waiter to come and take our order. I saw her write down an order for a table that came after us, she looked at my parties table then walked away and never came back. When I left the restaurant she was busy watching another employee weigh lobsters. They only have 1 bathroom stall for women and 1 for men so expect to wait a while to use the restroom.

We visited Puerto Rico for Christmas and stopped by this restaurant. It's clean with decor that's a step up compared to most places we've seen in PR. The bathrooms are modern and well-maintained, which was a nice touch. After finishing our rainforest trip, we weren't in the mood for deep-fried seafood. I ordered the octopus salad with mofongo, while my child opted for a bowl of bean soup. The soup was delightful--flavorful and packed with beans and root vegetables. The octopus salad was fresh and dressed with olive oil, but it lacked seasoning, and the lime flavor was weak. The mofongo was flavorful but a bit tough and chewy in texture. Overall, the meal was decent, but nothing extraordinary.

Plantains
Angelica K.

Service is a little slower. Which is ok because it was super packed in there. Some of the best rice, beans and plantains I've had. I love the view of the beach and the drinks were so tasty! Casual atmosphere as it's right on the beach.

One of the more popular kiosks in Luquillo is Edelweiss bar. We stopped here for a nice lunch and enjoyed the meal. Prices were a little higher than we expected but the food was good. Not sure I would come back but enjoyed the rice and sauce on the salmon. I didn't experience the poor service others have mentioned and the restaurant was mildly busy so it had a more lively atmosphere

Sancocho
Yadhira L.

The place came recommended by our tour guide, however, the service was awful. We got seated soon enough, but we sat there for a very long time until I waved down a few people and finally got an annoyed waitress. She just seems so bothered by having to do her job. The food was good and it was cool to try the stuffed avocado. However, the lobster was not very tasty and after a while, you can't even finish the giant avocado. The food took about an hour to even come out. They didn't seem that busy to be so frazzled. I wish we had a better experience, but it was a Monday and the pinchos place was closed. Now that place is way better. We won't be back here.

FILETE DE MERO SALTEADO O EMPANADO - GROUPER FILLET SAUTÉED OR BREADED: $22.95 w rice and beans
Kelly C.

After a wonderful hike to two different waterfalls and viewing the city of Luquillo from a stone watch tower in El Yunque National Park we were famished. We stopped in the "Liquillo kiosks" like a strip mall near the highway to get some lunch. Half of the stores were bars or restaurants which you a lot to choose from but many weren't open yet. This bar and grill was and were ready to assist us. The restaurant has a bar with seats and several indoor / outdoor tables that can accommodate many people. The staff were bilingual it prefer to speak in Spanish however they were friendly and helpful. We didn't order any appetizers unless you call "Mojitos" as appetizers. You know it has mint leaves and lime so...lol. Meals: 3.5 -4.5 stars Our lunch consisted of: 1. Filets de Mejo - GROUPER FILLET SAUTÉED OR BREADED - 4.5 stars. Our local guide got the breaded version and he said it was large, thick, succulent, and flavorful. Not too fishy. The breaded filling has more of a "panko" texture which made the coat light and crunchy. The two sides were beans and rice 2. Pollo Aguacate Relleno (stuffed avocado w chicken) served w creama de ajo (garlic cream sauce) and arepas- 3.5 stars. Large avocado and chicken breast was diced and mixed w the garlic sauce however the sauce overwhelmed the flavor avocado and chicken. The arepas were fried and thick. Tasted plain however it was a good "scooper" for the mixed chicken and avocado. 3. Pollo Mofongo (chicken) w Criolla (Creole) sauce - 3.5 Stars. The pollo mofongo was a healthy portion and the Criolla sauce had the light version of the creole flavoring. It didn't overpower the mofongo (fried mashed green bananas w bacon and garlic). I shared the dish because was too much to eat. You will need a long siesta after this meal. I would prefer the dish to be more flavorful with the seasoning but it was still good. All three of us agreed the Breaded Grouper was the star of the show. It was LARGE, flakey, and moist. Will definitely come back for their mojitos and fish. Enjoyed the view, drinks and Caribbean style food. Don't let the German name fool you. It serves wonderful food but will be hard to find a Pretzel or 2 liter Cerveza!LOL at this place.

Cod croquettes
Lai L.

True tourist trap, esp with the aesthetics and drink specials. I liked the lobster tank too. We were seated right away, but it took a while for a server to come around. We had to flag someone down & he was truly apologetic, so that made up for it. We already got drinks a few doors down & we wanted to make room for other items from different shops, so we got the cod croquettes, crab arepas and a hamburger and fries for the kiddo. Everything was delicious, so that made up for the wait. Also, the server that helped us was super nice. Overall, good experience.

Luquillo Kiosks
Elizabeth K.

Located at the Luquillo kiosks strip. We walked to many other restaurants, but this one looked too good not to eat here. The service was very good, waiter was helpful. The food was very good and good size for the price. It did take a long time to get our food but it was very good. The drinks were also delicious. Would definitely come back.

We came here for food based on Reddit recs haha. Glad we chose this place! The food was pretty…read moregood, and we loved the energy and the live band here... but what really set this place apart was how friendly the staff was! When we arrived, the main room was packed, and the few open tables were reserved. The host asked us if we'd be okay sitting in another room. I explained that we're visiting, and we wouldn't mind waiting for a table to open up where the live band section is. Upon hearing this, they were nice enough to accommodate us and make it happen. Special shoutout to our server! Unfortunately, I forget her name (it's been a month), but I remember she had this AMAZING makeup on, with lots of colorful beads in beautiful patterns across her face, as well as lovely hands with really fun nails and rings. She was so lovely and friendly, and she really made our night! If you see this, thank you :)

Place was in the Kiosko strip..I think #20. Place seemed inviting, played music after 6:30pm. The…read moreis a slight view of the beach if you sit closer to the back. Server was friendly. We only got 3 items of food: Longaniza, Bacalaitos and Octupus salad with Pulpo. Longaniza was deep friend with chimichurri sauce (was not the deep color I was expecting) tasted like pork chop chunks, octopus salad my hubby ate said it need more olive oil and the pieces were not consistent and chunky; there were pieces that were too small-he said it didn't taste bad but a traditional octopus salad. The prices were way over: Maybe other meals are worth it but I probably would not visit again
