Not the best seafood place in the area…read more We (a party of four) went there on a Friday afternoon for lunch. We were seated fairly quickly, in the inside part of the business as there were "no seats outside" - that wasn't the case. The server came promptly to take our order: @drinks - mojito, sangria, water and a soda. The sangria tasted like pouch sangria poured into a glass and the mojito had little to no rum. @Starters - marine sampler, which was greasy and overly cooked. @main dishes - paella marinera for 2, lobster tail, and stuffed mashed plantains with ceti (local fish). My overall impression of the main dishes wasn't great for the price we paid for the meal ($$$). The paella for two lacked flavor and the seafood wasn't properly cleaned (the shellfish had the poop vein); the lobster wasn't local and tasted weird; the stuffed plantains with ceti were very salty. For the latter we offered our feedback to the server and she just took the plate away, without offering any substitutions or following up. Enough to say that I'll not be coming here again. The price of the food goes beyond the quality and service. The only nice thing about the place its the view, which we got to see through a window.

Probably the best I've had while traveling. As an outsider to the culture, I only know what my stomach tells me is good. And it says this is good. Great even. It's outside only. If I knew that I would have avoided the place. I like inside and the air conditioner. Beware of the mosquitos. There were a ton. We got there and there was a small line. By the time we got our food there were 10 plus people. What encouraged me upon arrival was the fact military members were eating there. I know they know where good food is. Even police showed up to get food before we left. We were clearly the only lost tourists. It was the only place to have Coke Zero. All around very good food. Affordable prices too.

Once we hit the door, a host informed us it would be about a 15 minute wait to be seated and about 45-60mins for our food to come out. We weren't upset that meant that the food would be prepared fresh and come out hot. Our server welcomed us and reminded us what the host had informed us and suggested we get appetizers to hold us over a bit. Drinks came out and were very good (mojitos) and our appetizer of the octopus salad. Now when our meals came out and we each tasted what we ordered, we were in heaven and eating from each others plates. This was a must go to spot for good food. The garlic shrimp w/mofongo were amazing.

Go. Eat here. Don't look for a big blue "A" outside the doors; you won't find it. What you will find is an actual local spot owned by a husband and wife (they are the only two employees) who cook up AMAZING food at pretty cheap prices. Entrees run $15, appetizers around $3, beer at $1. Bottled water only, no free tap water. Now: there will be no English going on here, so brush up on a "I want" and "my wife / friend / kid would like" before you go. The menu is 50% translated into English (lots of dishes with "chiken," -- no "c") but if you have an AT&T phone you'll be in luck and you can Google everything faster than your phone works in the states. Empanadas... Great. Arañas... So yummy (not actual spiders) Steak Mufungo... Best on the Island. Creole Chicken... Light and bursting with flavor. Tostones... Theirs beat the crap out of every other plantain served in the commonwealth. Corona... Freezing cold little 7oz bottles that go down like the nectar of life. Live guitar music and dancing on Sundays in the evening. Super-nice owner (he'll shake your hand and introduce himself as he apologetically says "no English"). Crazy-good "Mom made this" food.
