Everything was absolutely phenomenal. The service was impeccable, and our waitress was incredibly kind, attentive, and helpful. The atmosphere was welcoming and beautifully done, but the food was truly the highlight. The seafood was exceptionally fresh and seasoned perfectly. We asked for extra hot sauce, and it was amazing. This was one of the best meals we've had during our trip, and we're already talking about coming back for dinner before we leave. Highly recommend!

The service was very friendly,…read morealthough there were several instances where 1 person of our group of 5 was left out when things were delivered to our table. The waitress (who was super cool) had to go and remind the bar to make my wife's drink. Then, she had to go and ask the kitchen why my entree hadn't come out when everyone else had been served 5 minutes prior. The food was good (especially the churrasco), but this was a very expensive meal. Like, "Holy hell is that correct?!"-when they bring you the check level expensive. We would go back for those drinks, but I would need to sell a couple of non-vital organs before we could afford to go back for a full meal.

After six days in San Juan, there was only one restaurant I really loved, so thank God we decided…read moreto venture out to Luquillo! We came with a group of 11, and they had a beautiful outdoor space that worked perfectly for our group. Service was attentive, and everything we tried was fresh.I ordered the grilled lobster with seafood in garlic sauce and tostones. It was delicious, although definitely pricey. The lobster is sold by the pound, and the smallest they had was about 1.5 lbs at $60+ per plate, so keep that in mind.Not pictured was my daughter's churrasco, which I had to try and WOW. I'm pretty sure it was entraña, and it was some of the best steak I had on the trip. For dessert, I had the coconut flan, and it was SO good. Definitely my favorite way to end the meal. Puerto Rico is expensive, and I'd consider this mid-level pricey, but compared to some of our meals in San Juan, this one felt worth it. If you're staying in San Juan, I'd recommend making the trip to Luquillo. This was easily my favorite meal of the trip!

This is a smaller, more intimate restaurant, so definitely make reservations ahead of time because seating is limited. But from the second you walk in to the moment you leave, the service is absolutely incredible. The staff makes the entire experience feel so warm and welcoming that you genuinely don't want the night to end. Huge shoutout to the chef because every single dish was executed flawlessly. You can tell that every detail on each plate was intentional and thoughtfully done. The standout dishes for me were the elote ribs, which were unreal, the grilled octopus cooked perfectly tender, and the ceviche con leche de tigre, which was bright, fresh, and packed with flavor. But the real star of the night was the whole branzino absolutely phenomenal. And for dessert? Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of the options. We ordered one of each for the table and genuinely could not pick a favorite because every single one was that good. Hands down one of the best dining experiences we had in Puerto Rico.

Not going well for a Saturday night fine dining experience, right??? We were also told at that time we had to place appetizer and main orders at the same time -- keep in mind I've not yet placed a drink order... No seafood tower... it was retired on the menu yet we came almost 3,000 miles for it), and a fine dining menu that came super far from even being close to fine. No celiac options and while billed a great option for fresh inventive dishes, we found this place a huge let down and not willing to try. The front end staff needed a lot of help. The menu looks unrehearsed and neglected. I was glad to not spend my money here. Thankfully, we could leave before the $50 bottle of wine we ordered arrived. We went elsewhere!

I came here expecting good food and left wondering how I'm supposed to return to my normal life knowing these exist. The flavor?! The crust?! THE EMPANADAS?! Honestly, if there are only two things you do in Puerto Rico: enjoy the island and eat these empanadas. I would happily cancel plans, rearrange my schedule, and possibly betray a loved one for the last empanada. Bistro Del Mar, you have officially ruined all other empanadas for me. 10/10. No notes. Seriously... GO. GET. THE. EMPANADAS.

Every bite feels balanced and worth it. Be ready to wait. The food takes a while to come out. Plan for it and don't come starving. That said, the tacos make up for it. You'll forget the wait once you start eating. Also plan for the setup. There isn't much shade during the day, so think ahead if you're coming earlier. Bring what you need or come at a better time. We went at night, and it was perfect. The atmosphere felt calm and easy, with a great breeze and a relaxed vibe. Sit back, take your time, and enjoy it.

I'll let you in on a secret, Puerto Rican Chinese food is a super delicious thing! I was skeptical…read moreat first since it just looks like your typical Americanized Chinese fast food, but it is phenomenal! La Perla Oriental was my introduction to this cuisine. I ordered the Chuleta and Mofongo. The Chuleta was a super juicy and tender fried pork chop with a nicely crisp outside. The Mofongo was some of the best I have tried on the island: soft, savory and moist with a nice garlic flavor. My wife had the Pollo Naranja, Arroz Frito, and Papas Fritas. The Pollo Naranja (Orange Chicken) was tender with a nice crispness and marinated in a sweet orange sauce. The rice was nicely savory and the fries were perfectly crisp. Overall, La Perla Oriental is a must visit in Luquillo.
