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.

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!

The service was good, our waiter greeted us quickly and took our drink order. I ordered a Barbados, it was actually very good. It was a rum drink with cinnamon and citrus juice. We ordered tacos, steak and spicy crab. The steak taco was overflowing with steak, it has a nice lime taste and the meat was tender. The spicy crab was a disappointment. It was also overflowing, but it was stuffed with imitation crab meat. I was thinking if you are on the sea you would get real crab meat. The waiter asked how we liked it and I said it should be labeled as fake crab. He was very gracious about it and wanted to offer me another type of taco. Overall, not sure how it got past three stars by other guests. Maybe I need to try other dishes.

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.

MOFONGO ($8 for chicken, $9 for shrimp). All prices pre-IVU / pre local tax. We had a tripleta and it was good. Not the best we've had, but good. Good portion. I'd come back for their other specials!

We had the fried red snapper and mofongo with shrimp, conch, and octopus. We had 2 beers and 3 bottled waters as well, and the entire tab was $46. It's a little mom and pop place that's in the very far back of the kiosks where people rarely go. It's a little dingy, and visitors include some flies and candy peddlers as well, which is the reason for the -.5 stars. However, the food was so well prepared that I'm giving it super high ratings. It's no La Parilla as far as fanciness goes. The menu is a little smaller and the atmosphere is definitely more hole-in-the-wall. The owner lady barely speaks any English, but I'm pretty sure all of the food was prepared by her, so extra kudos. I'd go here for a relaxing and relatively cheap night out with very very delicious food.
