    Tostones with churrasco
    Edward M.

    If you stay near Fajardo this is a good option for authentic Boricua cuisine, now be mindful they take a little while to served the food, but the wait is worth it.

    We had 17 people in our party! The food was delicious. Everyone had something off the menu. Fried snapper, kan kan pork chops, pasta, steak!! Delicious!

    I would love to give this location 5 stars. But i cannot. The views are amazing as the restaurant sits right on the water. The restaurant has some excellent food. I ordered the Mofongo with churasco and it was delicious. The problem lies on how long we waited for our food. We waited over an hour for the entrees to come out. Apparently they were short staffed in the kitchen. They should of advised us that before we sat down. The server was great it wasn't her fault she tried her best to keep us informed of what was going on with our food. I wilk give it another try just because of the food.

    One of our best meals in 2 weeks in Puerto Rico. Their shrimp Mofongo and coconut mojitos are to die for! The patio is absolutely lovely, we had the best evening. I highly recommend it!

    Service was a bit slow but food was spot on and our servers were always checking to make sure we were okay. A nice view of the ocean was helpful.

    The atmosphere was fun and tropical. The food was plentiful, fresh and amazing! Love Puerto Rico food!!! Lots of fresh veggies for this veg head. The Coconut Mojitos knocked my socks off!! ( except I was barefoot). Lovely views of boats coming in and out of the harbor - might have spotted an oligarch! . Great staff, friendly and answered all of our touristy questions. "What kind of fish is that swimming right next to our seats?!"

    Mofongo camarones al ajillo

    The views of the marina connecting to the ocean was beautiful. The food did take a while to come out. But it was worth it. The mofongo camerones al ajillo had a lot of shrimp and they were a decent size too. The mofongo is swine free. The best surprise was getting to the center of the mofongo and another shrimp was in there. Enjoyed it to the last bite.

    Great view and atmosphere, friendly service. However the kitchen was VERY slow in delivery and even ran out of Several sides. Mamposteao rice was super salty. Coconut shrimp were DELICIOUS. Red snapper filet was bland but the salty rice offset it. Empanadillas were ok. This could be a five star location but they need to make sure they pay attention to detail and not run out of sides!

    In front of the main marina's boat trafiic.  Really great location for talking some pics.

    Great environment, food was great and the host was awesome!, we order lobsters and fish, the dessert was also recommended. Thanks

    Only "tostones" were amazing, freshly fried!  Fish and sauce just ok.  The sales needed some kind of dressing. :-(.

    Came her for the first today, I have been trying for a while but the congestion and waiting time did not allow it. However, not sure what is the reason for all the buzz, menu is not impressive, and the fish did not convinced me. The view is a nice one, although your drinks should be serve in koosie (Slim Can Cooler), the ocean breeze will heat your beer or drink in seconds. The view and the tostones gets the 3 stars I am giving.

    The seafood was amazing. The Kam Kam Pork chop was delicious as well. Very relaxing as the restaurant sits on the marina.

    Pork Chops Can Can with stewed rice!

    The food is delicious and the portions are a more than average size. The Ambiance is wonderful as this a water front place in Las Croabas across from Penñar Mar Condo complex. The pricing is a bit high. Two people with drinks was $72 and that was for lunch. But the food was very good.
