There's tons of cocktails and beers to choose from. The service was lovely, our server was fun and nice and helped us celebrate a birthday in the group with a candle and a dessert, and he even brought us blankets when he noticed we were cold. We went to many restaurants, some way fancier than this place, and yet the meal I had here is the one I wish I could revisit the most!

We ordered: Ceviche Mixto (5/5): very fresh, comes with squid, shrimp, fish, sweet potato and fried corn. Rice with beans (5/5): very flavourful, wish there's an option of the side rice dish that comes with meat. But overall pretty great, flavourful and not greasy. Spicy crab with potato (4/5): thought it's a deep fried potato croquette with spicy crab but it's a mashed potato dish. Very creamy, not spicy. If you like mayo dish you'll like this. Overall, it's a chill restaurant for seafood and chill meals. No dress code, clean and neat dining ambience.

We were in the area looking for a place to eat (a little late on a Thursday night) and found Asia…read morede Lima. Due to the recent power outage, it took a while for them to make some of the dishes (and they couldn't make any pizzas), but overall it didn't matter too much....and, it was helpful that they warned us in advance that it could take an hour or so to prepare certain dishes. Here are some thoughts: - We started with some of the specialty cocktails they were offering. The Pisco Sour was really good, but a bit sweeter for my taste than I was hoping for. - Given the situation with the power, we opted to start with some items our server said could be served more quickly and decided that the three of us would just share everything. Our first item was the cheese balls appetizer and then we had the ceviche. We're glad we started with these because both dishes were excellent...don't underestimate the cheese balls...they are so good with the guava sauce on top! - Eventually our Churrasco Tiritas came out to our table, prepared with the Salsa Setas Curry and with the Assoz del Chef on the side. Wow, wow, wow! This was an amazing dish...so good, that I practically wanted to lick the plate! - Since it was so late by this time, we didn't have any dessert. - Service overall was pretty good, although our drinks sat empty for a long time and we finally had to flag him over to get some water. Bottom line: Asia de Lima has amazing food and the place is very small and cozy...I'm not sure if they are ever very speedy, but that seems to be the norm in Puerto Rico. We would go back!

It might seem it's all outdoor seating but they have an inside area with a few tables and the bar. The food is ordered outside. No waiters.

Everything was delicious but what I liked most were the yucca fries. I am definitely coming back.

I got in touch via IG because I wanted to see if they'd be able to accommodate our vegan, veg, mushroom/walnut/egg allergy situation with their smaller menu. They assured us we're in good hands and upon learning we're celebrating bdays, they asked for details on the bday boy/girl. Then on the day, they gave us a menu that was custom for them - replete with their accomodations and also 2 special cocktails by their names We tried all vegetarian and one pescatarian dishes, matcha ginger cake with sesame ice creams, and 4 cocktails (got their house espresso martini with soy sauce and miso X2 because of how addicting it is!).

What a great anniversary dinner at Cocina Abierta…read more We ordered a la carte from the tasting menu -- 10 dishes simply would have been too much food for the two of us. While all were great, some were naturally better than others. Each dish was prepared carefully and presented beautifully. The menu changes pretty regularly and will be completely different when you eat there. But if Earlin is your waiter, go with her recommendations. Service could not have been better. Earlin, our waiter, was helpful without being intrusive. Tip: We are glad we chose to eat on the terrace. Inside was both too cold -- puertoriqueños love air conditioning almost as much as Atlantans do -- and too noisy.

We started out with the papa a la Huancaína and the ceviche de pescado. I must admit that even though I'd been here multiple times, I'd never had the ceviche. Embarrassing, I know. It was very good. Perfectly prepared, imo. I liked the inclusion of canchas, which provided some crunch. The papa a la Huancaína was also excellent. It was my mom's favorite dish. I also decided to order the Pisco Sour, which was good. For the main course, we all went with the saltados (stir fry dishes). My dad and wife got the lomo saltado, my mom went with the pollo saltado, and I had the tallarines (noodles) saltados de carne. As I mentioned earlier, they were all hits. The only one who broke rank was our son. He went with the fish nuggets and loved them. He is coming around to fish, at least in nugget form. As long as they keep delivering we will continue to come back.
