    This is a photo of inside the place, as you can. See the corrogated metal looking like if you are in texas.

    I stopped at LA Manada When I was visiting Puerto Rico. I first heard of the Place when I was researching barbecue places in Puerto Rico to visit, came accoss this place on youtube. I knew I had to stop by. We were staying in Aguada PR, and drove 1.5 hours in the rain to visit. When we got there we didn't know you needed a reservation I should have known this (all great bbq is smoked hours before, then rested for hours before serving. So bbq establishments Can run out of protein meats. Hence reservations.). We were greeted by the nice parking attendants/staff, we informed them we are visiting from California and really wanted to have there bbq. After 5 minutes we were sitting at a table.. This place has that Texas feel, with definite Puerto Rico influences. Decore is amazing. All pits are on display, and smoking. Food is amazing. The Ribs were some of the best I've ever tasted. The right amount of smoke. Super tender. The natural taste of the pork is there. They weren't saturated with BBQ sauce to the point where thats all you taste. Ther are rich in taste. Brisket was tender, with a beautiful smoke ring, folded well, with great pull apart, and texture. Service is also amazing . Pitmaster Lucca came over to my table when the food came out, and introduced himself. Pitmaster Lucca is a true Pitmaster. I look forward to visiting again. And if you have the opportunity to go to LA Manada v8 you need to go. Just make sure to check on reservations . Pitmaster BigRay.

    Un acogedor lugar con excelente ambiente. Mucha amabilidad de parte de todo el personal, en especial del Chef quien te hace sentir como en casa. La comida muy deliciosa y el personal muy amable y dispuesto a hacerte pasar una inigualable experiencia.

    Burger with awesome coleslaw

    This place is hands down the place to go for great BBQ in PR. I had the burger which the Pitt master has won international prizes for. It's was delicious! It's made of an interesting mix of meats and the combo was perfect. My husband had the brisket and it was also perfectly delicious. Just the right amount of seasoning and soft as butter. The ribs were the best that I've had on the island. My kids give the food two thumbs up and that means a lot from picky eaters. It's definitely worth the drive. We turned into a day trip of town hopping and that made the trip just awesome all around. The service was great. The Pitt master stopped by to each table to greet us and even sat with us for a bit. We even got his autograph! And, I greatly appreciate the clean bathrooms. Reservations are required so be sure to hold your spot. And they are now open on Saturdays.

    This restaurant was fantastic and the food is amazing. The Ambiance fits right there with anyone that loves the feel of good outside eating! The service was impeccable and the staff was friendly! You have to make sure to make your reservations and then sit back and enjoy good cooking and wash it all down with a house crafted mango and coconut beer! Enjoy!

    Hijua p***a madre, This place is Lo mejorcito. BEST BBQ WORLD WIDE Customer service, expedient table delivery, CLEANLINESS and ambiance are all on point. While staying at Combate beach area the drive was maybe 50 min. No need for reservations We arrived at 1pm, sat down immediately and were eating at 1:20

    The place is a little tricky to get to. But once you're there they treat you like royalty! Staff is extremely friendly and the owner came out to greet us and ask if everything was good and if there was anything we needed. Now about the food, absolutely mouthwatering! I went with my four grandchildren my husband and my daughter; we all had something different and we tasted from each other's plate. Very satisfied with everything! Highly recommended

    La Manada smoke house is unequivocally Word's Best BBQ establishment; having visit many BBQ restaurants myself I mistakenly thought TN, Bourbon St. had the best. At La Manada, Lucas (Grillmaster) developed a process of brining and slowcooking involving 22 hours that allows each meat-cut to absorb the seasoning and smoke flavors avoiding taste suppression hence the need for Sauce. The Briskets are tender and juicy; the Ribbs are tender, juicy and off the bone; the Quail possesses the aforementioned descriptions; side dishes are awesome as well. Craft beers are good especially Pachanga. If your palate craves Good BBQ visit La Manada, but arrive EARLY because the food vanishes fast; Lucas' grilling process involves so much time and close attention that precludes volume cooking, procrastination will lead to missing out on an ineffable meal.

    Make sure you are hungry when you go.

    WOW! A must go restraunt if you are in the area. They are only open on Sundays and have limited quantities. The earlier the better. I almost ordered a half rack of ribs for my wife and a full rack for myself. The waitress said that's probably too much food. We ended up just getting a full rack of pork ribs to split between us. We couldn't finish it...it was enough for 3 hungry people. The taste and quality was excellent. We have had some trouble finding quality food in Puerto Rico, this place was great.

    Great smoky flavor. Best barbecue I have had in Puerto Rico. Can't recommend this place enough. Well worth the drive.
