Ordered with no eise in line then the wait began... Multiple people who ordered after us got their orders , had a tour booked so we didn't have hours to wait.

Wish I could get my pre/tip back. Beans were good that's about it.

Give it the wooden structure was falling apart, menu was small & limited id say overpriced somewhat for bar food.

We got the empanadas, the octopus salad and bistec/carne frita with tostones, platanos and rice. The empanadas were big and stuffed with meat. Crispy outside but really filled on the inside, fantastic flavor. The octopus salad was actually cooked and warm (unexpected) but it had great flavor. Garlicky but somehow light, it went well with the rice. The bistec was not dry and very flavorful. Everything was done just right. Plenty of parking in the back. Would definitely recommend!

Yup, this is where the locals eat. Good ol' Puerto Rican food. You will see 99% of the people…read moreeating here are Puerto Rican. The food isn't out of this world, but it's good and tastes like what Puerto Rican's actually eat at home or out and about on the regular. Nothing is dressed up here. Just regular Puerto Rican food. In a place filled with non- Puerto Rican food restaurants I'm inclined to give this place a good rating. I was so happy to finally find a place to just eat regular Puerto Rican food. the menu has three columns: ready to eat food, prepared by order, and sides. I love the simplicity and even the limited menu.

It's a 10 min walk from the ferry, very easy. Def a place to just eat and go. Whole fried fish, 4/5: Only $28 for a whole snapper. Not fishy at all--something your local grocery store can make for you. Great shareable option for a filling dish. The yellow rice with beans hit! Def get that as a side. Hamburger, 3.9/5: Nothing special but the beef was very tender and cooked to a perfect medium well. The bun isn't toasted so the burger overall is very soft. Fries were good, not seasoned much but crispy and airy. $18 Chicken soft tacos, 3.9/5: Probably wouldn't get this again. It's like a chicken tender with coleslaw but no dressing so it didn't blend together. $15

We had some finger food for appetizers: Croquettes and Mozzarella Sticks. Both were quite tasty. Croquettes were satisfyingly crispy stuffed with yummy filling, served with an irresistible sweet and savory sauce. The Mozzarella Sticks had a flavorful crunchy exterior and amazing cheese pull. I ordered the Fried Pork Chop with a side of Yuca Mash with bacon and peppers. The plating was beautiful. This Fried Pork Chop was HUMONGOUS and impressive looking. The meat was tender, oh so juicy, succulent, and well seasoned. It was absolutely delicious! The Yuca Mash didn't have enough pronounced pieces of bacon and peppers throughout, so I wasn't the biggest fan. I was able to sample the Rice and Peas, which was cooked perfectly, fluffy, and wonderful. What a hearty meal! Service was excellent. Everything came out in a timely manner and we were well taken care of throughout our time here.

We ordered: -the triangulo for an appetizer -el gallito with arroz y habichuelas -garlic shrimp with arroz mamposteado -tostones There were some concerns: -the food took awhile to come out. Not sure if it was the kitchen or the waitress. -the shrimp dish only came with 5 small shrimp. It was surprising as it looked like it was missing substance. These were not large or jumbo shrimp. - the tostones were rock hard. It almost felt like they had been cooked and fried before and then retired/heated for our meal. Overall a good eatery, would go back.

So, I say all this to say - make sure to make a reservation if you'd like to avoid a long wait &/or disappointment with there not being a table available.

Now - on to the best part... the FOOD! The creamy pumpkin soup with an arepa was really delicious!!! Full of flavour, prepared with passion and love and I would definitely go back for more! For our mains, my sister and I decided to both have the seasonal fresh caught fish with Puerto Rican yellow rice - YUMMMM! My only regret is that the fish was not big enough...
