    Great place for breakfast and espresso coffee. They have great sandwiches. Sobao bread or agua…read morebread they are fantastic. Flexible hours and great service

    Super find. Did you…read moreknow it's impossible to find breakfast in Fajardo on a Tuesday? I didn't either! Many of the best restaurants are closed (it's their weekend, I guess). So after driving around like nitwits for over an hour trying to find a place (curse you, Apple Maps!) I noticed this place in the urban core of old Fajardo, we found a parking place on the street a couple of blocks away (would our rental car be up on blocks when we returned? Stay tuned to find out!), and we sauntered in. Now one could be forgiven for thinking this is a Local's-Only joint that is unwelcoming to floundering touristas that stumble in, but that would be a mistake. While their English is scarcely better than my (appallingly bad) Spanish, the menu posted above the register is clear ("jamon" = ham; "queso" = cheese; "huevos" = eggs; and these three components constitute the lion's share of their offerings). We fumbled through our order, and took one of the three tables to await the results. The locals passing through were a bit thrown when they saw these interlopers invading their neighborhood haunt, but accepted us quickly (it helps when you get out of the way of the scratch lottery tickets). In a short time, our meals arrived. They were tasty and nutritious. I wolfed mine down with reckless abandon; my comrade dined at a stately pace, but at the end of the meal, we agreed the the food and coffee were delicious and worth searching for. So upon our return to our vehicle, what did we find? It was as we left it: unmolested, and in fine condition.

    Great first vacation meal at Panderri! A table topped with the Caribbean benedict, cubano, and…read morebrownie waffle just show you how different but collaborative my sister, cousin and I are, lol. We rotated all three delicious dishes at least twice. Great chewy texture on the waffle, with more toppings than one could ask for. The benedict was a perfect mix of sweet, savory, and sea! But the cuban sandwich won the day. That roasted pork, girrrrlllll. They have indoor and outdoor seating and a full bar, too. Lovely jazz music for ambience, great vacation vibes. Okay, I'm sleepy now. Bye.

Split the delicious spring mix salad with crunchy prosciutto and figs followed by 12oz rib eye medium rare with a demi glace sauce and changed mashed sweet potatoes for regular mashed potatoes, served with seasonal vegetables of asparagus and green carrots, $48. I was nervous when I saw how thin the steak was, and the demi place looked like gravy. But the steak was a perfect medium rare and quite tasty. The sauce was different, but good. Ended the meal with a fruit tart $6.19, very good! Shout out to Aleisha for being our delightful waitstaff. Returned for Sunday brunch. Enjoyed Cafe latte, oj&vodka. Chocolate croissant and a delicious sandwich consisting of pan soboa roll, roasted pork shoulder, ham, swiaa, pickles and mustard maple syrup.$12.48.
