A great tapas & mofongo bar at the center of town! We were…read morestaying a block away and decided to dine here after comparing numerous options in the area. Well, it was the right choice for sure. We wanted to go tapas since by then (day 6), we were acclimated with the heaviness of Puerto Rican meals in general (carbs and fried foods), so we didn't order the mofongos. Jose was our server and he seated us promptly near the corner. ORDER their mojitos! I really enjoyed mine - full of mint leaves and strong rum. My wife also enjoyed her virgin pina colada which was refreshing. Tempura shrimp in sweet chili sauce ($11, App, 4/5) - Generous portion, slightly too sweet for us but had great juicy shrimp w/ shrimp taste. Jalapeno and Cream Cheese Poppers ($8, App, 4/5) - Loaded w/ cream cheese but no actual jalapeno peppers really (slight disappointment), it still was enjoyable to eat due to nice crispy texture, jalapeno taste, and the delectable guava sauce Empanadillas del dia ($3.50, App, 3/5) - It was chicken that day and chicken was not too dry though amount of the filling left a bit to be desired. It's pretty big & filling, so watch out. Fish Tacos ($10, Entree, 5/5) - One of the best fish tacos I've ever had. Fish bites were fresh, crispy and light, paired against good amount of sour relishes and green leaf on a warm tortilla. Also there were THREE of them! (I think the first fish tacos I've ever ordered that came as 3, not 2!) We ordered this after finishing our 3 tapas because we were still slightly "not full", but man these packed quite the punch and we were STUFFED SILLY after these for sure. Wow, some delicious business here. Btw, Jose's service was really excellent. He was super attentive, checking up on us just the right amount of times, and even went outside to take picture for us with the signs after our meal. He made our dinner experience that much more pleasant. Moons Bar & Tapas really delivers with overall consistent taste & quality. I won't hesitate to stop by next time for their mofongos!

Cool tapas bar in La Parguera. I ordered a ceviche and stuffed avocado dish and pigged out. It was…read moreso good. My mojitos were delicious and service was great.
