    Filet encebollado and mofongo de carrucho.
    Alex P.

    We went on a Sunday around 1pm. It was already full but since we were 2, we didn't have to wait long to sit down. They have many tables inside and out. Food took about 20-30 min to come out. The mofongo was OK. I've had better. I ordered fish filet in garlic sauce but they brought me the encebollado fish instead (with onions). I didn't complain though. I ate it. It was very good. The small amount of salad that comes with it is nothing to write home about. The flan de queso was yummy. Had the sangria as well and 2 empanadillas as app. Total was appox $65. View of the water is amazing!

    Grilled chicken
    Michelle P.

    Place was packed. Serving sizes were a bit bigger than I expected. I got a mojito was was very good and reasonably priced. I ordered grilled chicken with rice and beans. It was fantastic. A few with me ordered mofongo. Shrimp and conch. The conch mofongo was better than the shrimp. Other than that, the service was pretty good, and the seafood was fresh, no doubt in my mind.

    I would pay simply for the panoramic view of this place, but thankfully the food was quite good too! I had the lobster in garlic, my husband the whole snapper- extra spicy- and both were delicious. Lovely evening, nice service, charming beach front restaurante.

    Lobster in garlic sauce with mofongo

    Good food. Great scene. Has the lobster in garlic sauce. It was good but a little over cooked. I'm not too picky though. Monfongo was decent as well. Service was good. Id come just for the total atmosphere of the place.

    Best fried fish in Puerto Rico. I recommend the hog fish. Best spicy criolla sauce for the fish. Awesome rice and beans.

    This is a fantastic place, authentic puerto rican food. Try the lobster mofongo, awesome. I also recommend the sampler appetizer.

    I can be quite the food critic at times and let me tell ya, this place was nothing less than…read moreamazing. We stayed at the condos a couple minutes away so we decided to give them a shot based on the good reviews. Our waitress gave us all the best suggestions on the menu. I ordered the monfongo y camerones (shrimp) with the cilantro sauce. It was so good i almost ordered it twice just to take the second order home. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you want some amazing Puerto Rican food.

    I normally don't write long reviews, but this experience needed to be shared. My partner and I…read moretraveled from New York to Puerto Rico to visit his family for Thanksgiving week, and we decided to take his parents, siblings, and nephew out for a nice pre-Thanksgiving dinner. We saw Kalizo , thought it looked upscale and promising, and chose it for what was supposed to be a special family night. Instead, it turned into one of the worst dining experiences we've ever had. From the moment we arrived, the service was disrespectful and careless. We were a party of six, and the host simply pointed to a section and told us to "sit over there" -- no greeting, no walk-through. He dropped the menus on the table and walked away. We sat for over 20 minutes with no one approaching us for drinks or orders. We had to stop multiple staff members just to ask, "Can we please get a waiter?" Each time we were told someone was coming, but no one did. When the waiter finally showed up, he acted rushed, uninterested, and dismissive. He kept telling us that several items we wanted were "not available," rushing us to pick something else. I ended up ordering something quick because I honestly didn't know if he'd ever come back. Meanwhile, there were only about three other tables occupied, and we noticed something very uncomfortable: The English-speaking white customers were getting A1 treatment -- constant refills, servers checking in on them, drinks delivered correctly, food synchronized -- everything. Our table, where we were mostly speaking Spanish with my partner's family, was basically ignored. Our drinks came out wrong. Refills took three or more requests. Food came out one plate at a time, so half the table was done eating before the rest of us even received our meals. My plate was missing the sides and sauces it came with. I had to physically get up and find someone to ask for them. At one point, after asking three times for a Sprite refill, I just stood up and went straight to someone and said, "Can you please just bring me a Sprite can, a to-go box, and the check?" because I had enough. The food itself? Not good. Definitely not worth the price. And the service? Terrible. A woman who worked there quietly apologized to us and said she saw everything happening, but she couldn't intervene because she wasn't a server. That says enough about the environment. Overall, it felt like we were treated differently simply because they assumed we were locals or because we were speaking Spanish. Meanwhile, the tables of English-speaking tourists got excellent service. What was supposed to be a nice family dinner turned into a frustrating, embarrassing, and disappointing experience. I would not recommend this place, especially if you're expecting fair service or celebrating something special.
