This is the first restaurant we ate at after landing in San Juan, Puerto Rico. After dropping our…read morebags in our Airbnb, we decided to walk up the street to see what we could find, preferably, authentic Puerto Rican food. We were staying in the Coronado area of San Juan so it's a little touristy so I thought we would find a decent amount of Puerto Rican options. To our surprise, there weren't a lot of options. This place seemed like more of a fast food restaurant, but they did offer exactly what we were looking for...Arroz con gandules, mofongo, yuca, tostones, pork, etc. so we stopped in. Everything seemed to be cooked fresh and to order, especially the Mofongo. I ordered the chicken breast with arroz con gondules and yuca. Everything was so good! I also tried the Mofongo, which was one of the best I've had outside of eating it homemade. Wow. Pleasantly surprised. I ate so much, pretty much clearing my plate, which I never do. This food kept me full pretty much the entire day. Very tasty food. Service was friendly and the dining area seemed pretty clean. I liked it so much that I came back a second time during my four day trip. Prices are very reasonable for the amount of food you get as well. The second time we went, we actually split a meal and we were both full. This place is a must try when visiting Puerto Rico.

As the other reviews mentioned do not expect this to be a quick trip. The wait was probably…read more25-30mins long whether you were in line or at the drive thru. The cashiers are not very friendly and they had me standing to the side while they took care of another order that they messed up. The person was very upset and demanded their money back right before I was to begin ordering. The cashier then left went to speak to her boss for over 5 mins. Then she returned back to the register and made a phone call for another 3 minutes as I stood waiting to put my order in. It was extremely rude. A simple apology or if she just would've asked me to wait nicely would have sufficed but I was completely ignored and brushed off. Very off putting and not normal customer service in Puerto Rico. Chicken was good but the biscuits and corn nuggets really stole the show. I'd definitely return but never again at this location. Also the restroom wasn't very clean and was out of toilet paper.

We wanted to get a quick snack and my friend loves their honey biscuits with the whipped honey…read more Biscuits come out nice and warm and with the whipped honey it's very sweet. They're fluffy and a solid biscuit. The little chicken nuggets are good. It is heavy on the breading, but that's what fast food is.

You also get two homemade sauces with it that were delicious. The best part? It was only $9.75! This is a legit local's spot, and I'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

We stopped in and were thankful there wasn't a line when we arrived. Because we don't speak Spanish, we appreciated how helpful the staff was in assisting us with our order. We went with the famous lechón, arroz con gandules, and a strawberry cheesecake because they were out of their tres leches. The lechón was absolutely amazing--perfectly moist, crispy skin, and full of flavor. The arroz con gandules was just as delicious and paired perfectly with the pork. The only small miss for me was the cheesecake, as it didn't have a crust, which was unexpected. That said, it didn't take away from how much we enjoyed the overall meal. We sat outside where there was plenty of seating available, and as we ate, a line quickly formed at the door--so we were definitely glad we arrived when we did and avoided the wait. Overall, Lechonera El Mojito delivered an authentic and memorable Puerto Rican dining experience and is a must-stop if you're in Cayey or exploring the Pork Highway.
