Our Server was really great and never rushed us throughout our visit. The restaurant itself is really big, yet has a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. Love the Plantains hanging all over. The Cuisine is a good variety of Carribean Creole, which I absolutely love. For appetizers, we had Bacalaitos and Queso Frito and for my main dish, I had the Milanesa with Rice and Beans. I wasn't crazy about the sauce and cheese on top of the Milanesa, but it was still good. Both of the appetizers were amazing! El Platanal has various locations, with the one in Carolina being the original. I really enjoyed the ambiance and the menu has alot to choose from, so I look forward to coming back and trying other items on the menu.

EL Platanal is open 24/7. We arrived in Puerto Rico from…read moreFort Lauderdale past 11pm and most places were closed. It was great to find this one open. Loved the tropical all Plantain theme and how spacious this spot is. They have live music during the day and it gets really busy. I'm sure it's a fun spot. The servers were helpful and friendly as always in Puerto Rico. We ordered Arroz manpostiado with turkey but you could also order pork instead. Rice was good. The Octopus salad was $25 good size portion. The fried cheese with guava sauce and mozzarella cheese sticks as appetizers were ok. The plantain soup ironically did not taste like plantain. Was not good. The texture was just off more like gooey. Not sure maybe because it was a rainy night not too many people but food was not the best. We did not try the authentic Puerto Rican dishes such as Mofongo as it was way late at night for heavy food. The place looks great for birthday celebrations and great for big gatherings.

The server was completely informative and nice. I would so go back again the pizza was fresh and came out of the brick oven for everyone to see because the restaurant has a kind of open floor concept where you can see them cooking the pizza pies which I thought was great it's a great place to come with friends family or just by yourself. There is also a bar for you to sit at if you don't want to get a table. The wait was long because a lot of people want to come here and eat and vibe out but it was worth it the food was amazing! Can't wait to come back when I visit Puerto Rico again!

We happened to stroll behind their shop to look at other restaurants and they did a pop up behind due to the electricity being out. I'm so glad we decided to walk back there because when I say the people were so amazing / nice and the PIZZA WAS BEYOND AMAZING. We had the staff chose what pizza for us to eat and I'm so glad we did, THANK YOU GUYS FOR THIS EXPERIENCE AND YOUR HOSPITALITY

We started with a glass of wine (a Pinot Noir), and I must say it was as excellent as it was generous. Had the steamed dumplings and 3 Cheeses with truffle grilled. The service was Superb, as well as the cocktails that followed (Romance, Reposo, Tabla Ahumada), carefully crafted by mixologist Jonathan. It was both an outstanding visual show as well as an exquisite experience for the palate. If you are looking for fabulous cocktails, wine and service, in a chic adult environment with ambiance, and be rocked gently by an elegant and wonderful staff and owner, this is your place.

I believe this is Puerto Rico's only true beer garden, or at least one of the few. Most that…read moreadvertise themselves as beer gardens (or biergartens) are indoors, thus disqualifying them from being beer gardens. La Esquinita is all outdoors. It is located in Downtown Bayamón. Plenty of street parking available. They don't brew their own beer but they have a variety of excellent beer on tap and in bottles/cans. They have a bit of everything, mostly craft beers (local and imported). Although, they do have a few commercial beers for those weirdos. I am not sure if they make their own food or if they pair with guest businesses... or both. All I can say is from my experience when I went, they had food from Smoke 'Em All BBQ Team. I'd have to return to confirm. And return, I will. This place is the best. I had this place bookmarked for quite a while. I'm glad I chose Saturday to finally make it out. They were having an Oktoberfest celebration with live music from a band called Beans Polka. Not sure of they regularly have live music, it the band was awesome. A good mix of rock with Bavarian style music. Lots of fun. It was a packed house. There was a long line to order food and drinks, but it moved smoothly. The staff was working hard and were awesome. The food was very good. I really liked the Butifarra Sausage with bacon Kimchi, as well as the garlic parmesan fries. What makes this place rock, though, is the vibe (as well as the excellent beer). Great atmposphe. Family friendly so bring the kids. They will have fun. There is a projector that screens live sports. I am definitely returning. Only bummer is that they don't open on Sunday, so Saturday is the only day I can make it out since I work during the week.
