    Grilled chicken stuffed with chorizo and ripe plantains
    Nilsa A.

    Service very good. The restaurant had areas blocked off due to roof leaks. Everything we ordered was amazing and very tasty. Very large portions. Great value for the amount of food served.

    Mamposteao, amarillitos, churrasco

    Got here thanks to a co-worker referral. He was right on his opinion about the place. At first, the place looked packed, which typically is a good sign. Service was great, location casual, but air conditioned. Lots of options in the menu, we were all very pleased with our selections. My wife loved the mamposteao tasteful rice, the mofongo was great. I loved it all, its hard for me to pick between the beans and the beefsteak. Recommended A+ Portions were reasonable, quality/price deserves a five (5) stars no doubt.

    Rice and beans (arroz y habichuela)

    I wish I could try it all! The food was delicious and the service was amazing. There were some bilingual staff (if you need it.) The wait was short and the food came out quickly. I had croqueta de bacalao and mofongo relleno de karne kampestre with a side of rice and beans. I would cone again and bring family!

    This place is AMAZING! Our waiter Ray was awesome too! I had the chuleta kan kan along with white rice and beans and tostones de pana. Yum! My mother had the same but with a 6oz. churrasco. They also have an amazing hot sauce that we even bought to take back home to PA. And you can not forget about dessert!! The tres leches is a must!! Soooo good! Again, this place is DELICIOUS and I will definitely come again when I return to PR!

    I had steak mofongo with rice and it was amazing. Very good, fresh, tender. They have a yummy hot sauce that gives the rice a kick. Staff is very friendly and accommodating - with our broken Spanish we all managed.

Wonderful fried grouper and a good tater sauce. The masonry rice was a first and it is fantastic. I got the empanado en plantano, grouper breaded with plantain and served with rum and coconut sauce. The grouper by itself is delicious. So if you get this order the sauce on the side, it's cake frosting sweet, you only need a little layer, then this dish is amazing. You can eat the rest of the sauce like a dessert. We order a Terraza Sunrise to share, good thing case there is a stiff pour of rum and liquor, good to share or pour into a sprite!? Only issue is the Diet Coke was mixed wrong so we switched to sprite. It's an open air dining space that is covered, music from the bar/club next door is in the background. I order rice and beans for my side, very yummy and different from the masonary rice, they look nearly identical but they taste different.

Todo era un dolor de cabeza; incluso tuvimos que levantarnos varias veces de la mesa para solicitar cosas básicas. Si le pudiera dar menos de una estrella lo haría. Para comenzar, se ordenaron unas tiritas de pollo con arroz y habichuelas para los niños, las cuales tardaron aproximadamente una hora en llegar. Durante ese tiempo preguntamos en múltiples ocasiones por el estado de la comida y no recibimos respuestas claras. Luego pedimos aperitivos: 2 tuna tartar, 2 pulpos y 1 chorizo al vino. Estos tardaron alrededor de 1 hora y 45 minutos en llegar, algo totalmente inaceptable para platos relativamente sencillos. Además, trajeron dos platos que nunca fueron ordenados. La situación empeoró con los platos principales. Se ordenó un rib eye término medium rare y llegó "well done". El acompañante, un supuesto arroz mamposteao, era simplemente arroz con color y habichuelas, sin ninguna preparación adecuada. El chillo fresco llegó seco y frío. En otras palabras, no tenía sabor. Los dos mofongos (uno de camarones y otro de pollo) también llegaron completamente fríos. El risotto de langosta fue lo único aceptable, aunque el sabor no destacaba y la porción de langosta no llegaba ni a 6 oz. Las carnes fritas con tostones estaban completamente quemadas. Todo esto tardó más de una hora adicional, sin ninguna justificación, y aun así la comida llegó en malas condiciones. En ningún momento se nos informó sobre el retraso ni recibimos disculpas. Estábamos ubicados en el segundo piso y tuve que bajar personalmente a solicitar hablar con un gerente. La única excusa que nos dio fue que había mucho volumen de clientes y poco personal, lo cual no es cierto, ya que cuando llegamos solo había entre 3 y 4 mesas ocupadas; el restaurante estaba prácticamente vacío. Lamentablemente, la experiencia no mejoró con el segundo intento de los platos. El rib eye llegó en el término correcto, pero extremadamente duro, como si no hubiera sido preparado adecuadamente. El mofongo de la cumpleañera estaba duro y sin sabor, y el resto de los platos continuaban con los mismos problemas. Para colmo, en la mesa no había servilletas, los cubiertos eran escasos y, al final, nos entregaron cubiertos plásticos para comer churrasco. Es muy triste, porque el lugar es bonito, pero el servicio y la calidad de la comida no están a la altura en lo absoluto. Lo que se supone que fuera una celebración terminó siendo un completo fiasco. Da hasta coraje

True Puerto Rican cooking. I ordered some rice and pigeon peas (gandules) with the pork belly, some alcapurrias ( fried plantain fritters stuffed with meat) and a side order of carne frita ( fried cube sliced pieces of pork) with a malta ( non alcoholic Puerto Rican drink made with barley and sugar). Amazing!! The service was fast and staff was very friendly. The place came highly recommended on numerous social media platforms and didn't disappoint. The music in the background was perfect as it added to the overall ambiance. Great local authentic spot that not only caters to locals but welcomes tourists. They have a bar also. Right on the side of the main road right off the highway. Everyone seemed to be having a good time eating, chilling and living the good life. A definite must stop if you are visiting Puerto Rico or just looking for a good authentic Puerto Rican place to eat. Well worth the hype!!
