    Arepas
    Lisa B.

    This is a repeat favorite from last year's PR trip! I didn't even know what an arepa was before coming here last year and now it is a "must do" every time time we are in PR. My friend and I tried a whole selection of their arepas. They are DELICIOUS. The meat is plentiful and it is covered with this amazing cream sauce. They are messy! If you have never had an arepa before- start with the chicken (you usually order about 3). For your dessert arepa, make sure to get an queso frito y guayaba (translates fried cheese and guava sauce). If that doesn't sound like a great combo to you, I dare you to try and it will change your mind. Also- the bar makes great classic and reasonably price cocktails. This is a must try if you are staying anywhere near Calle loiza!

    FIRST, THE WHITE SAUCE IS BANGING. Atmosphere is great, good music and ample seating. Only con is that the bathroom had a lot of mosquitoes x.x Came around 14:30/2:30 PM and we ordered 4 arepas: I had the pulpo and triple meat, friend had the pernil and fish. Loved the pulpo, chunks were thick and fresh! Triple meat had salami and ham (?) And the whole bottom half was pernil. Friend thought the pernil was too salty, its definitely juicy and also salty. The arepas were crispy and fluffy where it counted, and very well stuffed, worth the price range. Service was great, they take your order and have you sit. You pay after your meal. Definitely will return!

    If I had to pick one place to eat on the island, it would be here! So so so good. Had the shrimp arepas and they were to die for. They're made fresh and the flavors just melt in your mouth. The service was so incredible & they gave us free desserts to try. HIGHLY recommend!

    The #2 six pack does NOT include churrasco, pulpo, tripleta or Dominicana.  This place is BS
    Alfredo D.

    They have a six pack in their UVA menu that offers options that they don't honor. When you call to inquire to find out what the deal is (when you get the wrong things) they mock you and reply sarcastically. I didn't receive a call to rectify. According to them, the item does not include those options, but I mentioned them in the notes. Why wouldn't you call to figure out what's going on? So, be advised, false advertising galore and poor customer service.

    Some of the best food I ever had!! The service was incredible and everyone was so sweet. The owner, Pedro made the experience extremely personal and fun. They were great at suggesting and made the whole experience very happy. I strongly recommend. I got the guava and cheese along with the ceviche

    Chicken arepa, beef and cheese empanadas
    Javier C.

    The food is packed with flavor! The chicken arepas were very good and a great portion for the price. Try the empanadas as well!

    I found this place on TripAdvisor and Black Travel movement. Best decision EVER, yes it's a food truck but the food taste like a five star restaurant. The prices are reasonable, the service quick and friendly. I was able to make it over here twice on my four day trip, Saturdays La Prena stays open until 3 am. Thank GOD because after a few drinks this was desperately needed. If you eat no where else this is a MUST while in PR!!!

    Interesting concept. Good taste. As fried as you order the delivery takes some time but your food is fresh and hot. So, no rush when visit "La Preña". Price per unit is a little high for this type of food.

    Arepas con pollo and dessert
    Lina A.

    Arepas were delicious and fresh! The atmosphere was great with old school hip hop and reggae playing in the background and outdoor seating. The only small issue we had was that the service was fairly lax. Our order was 20 mins late and had to flag the server down for an update. We came to find out the order was never put in. Nevertheless they gave us free dessert to make up for the inconvenience. Overall experience was great!

    Wow. Just wow. Will come again!! Food was good (and cheap)! I feel like this place isn't getting the credit it deserves. Locals love it
    Marilyn V.

    So good!!! Glad I went even after I saw some of the bad reviews on yelp. Highly recommend you're it for yourself!!!!!!

    It was so good, that we ordered another spicy crab, though they informed us they just sold out so we got the shrimp instead which was still great!

    First time visiting the T-Mobile District and decided to stop in for a good cheeseburger after this…read moreplace caught my eye. At first, everything seemed fine. We were greeted, seated inside, and our order was taken with no issues. Unfortunately, the experience quickly went downhill and became one of the most unsanitary restaurant experiences I've ever witnessed. While we were waiting on our food, a man walked in with a dog. It was obvious the staff knew him because several employees immediately started interacting with the dog. The first thing I noticed was our waitress using both of her hands to pet the dog while the dog repeatedly licked her hands. In my mind, I thought surely she would go wash or sanitize her hands afterward. Instead, she proceeded directly toward the kitchen area and started preparing the condiments for our burgers without washing or sanitizing her hands at all. She then brought those condiments directly to our table. At that point, I politely told her she needed to wash her hands and that we no longer wanted the condiments. She walked away to the back, but the situation only got worse from there. The dog was approximately one foot away from our table the entire time. Personally, I do not believe dogs belong inside restaurants, especially around food preparation areas. Dogs carry germs, and anyone who owns dogs knows one of the first things they do when greeting other dogs is sniff each other's private areas. Watching staff pet the dog and immediately return to handling food and kitchen items without washing their hands was honestly disgusting. As we waited for the manager, another employee came up and allowed the dog to lick all over his hands. Right after that, he proceeded directly into the kitchen area to continue cooking food -- again, no hand washing, no sanitizer, nothing. We watched at least three more employees interact with the dog and only one person actually washed their hands afterward. When the manager finally came over, I explained exactly what had happened and asked him if he truly believed this was sanitary. His response was basically that dogs are welcome in the establishment and that he would "tell the staff to wash their hands." His attitude came across very dismissive, like he really didn't care about the seriousness of the situation. At that point, I asked for the bill for our drinks because there was absolutely no way I was going to eat food from an establishment operating like that. To make matters even worse, while we were paying, the man with the dog proceeded to take the dog toward the back near the kitchen area. Completely unacceptable and unsanitary. I understand some places are dog-friendly, but there still has to be health standards and proper hygiene when employees are handling food. Watching staff pet and get licked by a dog and then immediately touch food items and kitchen equipment without washing their hands ruined the entire experience for me. I will definitely not be returning.

A burger aficionado, enthusiast, dare I say expert (with a specialty in eating them, much more than making them). The founder of this incredible spot had a restaurant back in the day called Top Burger where they served AMAZING burgers made with Kobe beef, bison, ostrich, lamb, wild boar, among others amazing cuts of meat and sides that were cooked to perfection (special spot as it was where I took my wife for our first date). During that date I found out that the chef graduated from the Culinary Institute of America (believe me, it showed). Later in life I saw this place back when it was a Food Truck parked in its current location and was pleased to learn that it was the same chef embarking on his new culinary adventure. One bite into his creation and I knew I found my new favorite spot. From the Yambupleta (burger based on the local Tripleta sandwich), to the Yambertino (burger with Argentinian sausage, chimichurri sause, and if memory serves me right provolone), to his weekly creations of fried sushi/eggroll concoctions, with a side of sweet potato fries or "arroz mamposteao" (if they still have it, order that!) EVERYTHING IS DELICIOUS!!!
