Roast Pork Mofongo  Mofongo de pernil
Wil S.

We came here November 2024 and loved it so much we went back the next day. Returned today and it is still great. Love the food so much and the staff is very attentive! Cute setting too.

We got some happy hour special drinks, 2 for $18. One passionfruit margarita and one coconut mojito. The margarita was so much better than the mojito, that was a disappointment because I love mojitos here in PR. I would def come back for that passionfruit margarita and skip out on the coconut unless I tried another flavor. We also got from fresh strawberry kiwi smoothie juice that was good.

Mofongo
Michael H.

The mofongo was amazing and the happy hour rum punch was really really delicious. I had another. A cool place for music and drinks for sure. There was a little mistake in ordering, I asked for the chicken but got the churrasco. All good

Was assured the Veggie Mofongo was vegan by wait staff. The Veggie Mofongo and pinto beans (from the Veggies, rice, and beans dish) were the standout. It was a bit of a tight fit for four of us last minute. But they made it work quickly.

Decent food. This place was recommended by our tour guide. We had fried pork skins for the appetizer. It came fresh to the table after being cooked. I had the breaded chicken with rice, beans and salad. My daughter had steak with peppers and French fries since she does not like rice and beans. Hubby had the mofongo with steak. The lemonade was freshly squeezed/made and very delicious!

The food was good; it was typical Puerto Rican food. The servers were great and the food did not take long to reach our table. I love the decor; dollar bills were pasted on the walls by the different customers who ate at Los Yeyos; Cool idea. I ate twice, before leaving PR I ordered food to eat on the plane. PS Have the pina colada

The guy outside pulled me in with his "it's Happy Hour! come in and try it" The staff were very friendly and the food was nice and hot. Served quickly. The bar served great drinks and cocktails and juice. A large screen TV with a bumpin' stereo speakers. The servers were young and beautiful and friendly. Facilities were clean . Lots of locals and tourists alike walked in . Cooler inside and still they had theirAC on and kept their fans rotating.

They're open on Christmas Day. The Don Q coconut rum shots were pretty good. Our bartender was attentive and quick. The atmosphere was lively, with menu options like Mofongo. Looking forward to trying more of Puerto Rico's signature dishes next time!

pernil mofongo
Amanda W.

The tastiest mofongo in my opinion, and limonade too. Delicious and so fresh. But the pernil was so salty and the service was a bit choppy. But overall i really liked it.

Menu as of December 2023

Our cruise ship swung by San Juan for a couple hours and I had two missions: rum and mofongo. After satisfying my rum cravings we searched for an authentic place to get mofongo. Sadly there are a lot of tourist traps in San Juan (like birthplace of the pina colada? Come onnnnnnn man, do better). But we finally found this place. Unassuming joint that was 1/3 restaurant, 1/3 sundries store, 1/3 liquor store? Manager had Keith sweat on repeat, beers were cheap and ice cold. We were more than ready for the food and DAMN was it delicious! We had skirt steak and roast pork mofongo and a couple local Puerto Rican microbrews. Everything about the meal was incredible, totally low key vibes and great location. I will always recommend this place to friends going to San Juan!

Mofongo de jueyes
Michelle G.

We got a mofongo with crab here as a second dinner (lol we were hungry) / post-dinner snack. My friend liked it more than me, I think there are better mofongos in the city and it was a bit salty, but it was still solid. The interior (especially a side room with lights) was super cute but it was so cold in the restaurant especially as you got farther in. The air conditioning was blasting and it wasn't hot enough outside to warrant it, in my opinion. We didn't have drinks, but the prices looked cheap/reasonable.

Menu

After searching yelp for a local place to go to while visiting from a cruise we decided to stop in here. It's a fairly small place so keep in mind you may sit with other people or close to them. They play 90s music which was fun. We got seated immediately and our order taken quickly however there was a bit of a language barrier but we made it work. For drink I ordered a coke which in a can and then I got a rum punch which had a good flavor however it was thick. I'm pretty sure they use fresh fruit not processed juices. Hubby got a Cuba libre and it was strong but good esp with a lime squeeze. Started with a chicken and a beef meat pie and they were sadly mostly dough but still good. Would have definitely liked more filling. They gave us a bottle of hot sauce to go with them and it was a bit spicy but a needed addition to the meat pies Main course I ordered crab mofongo it had a very good flavor and was a large portion. Only complaint was the whole meal was one texture so if you're like me and have texture issues order a different meat option. Hubby got the pork mofongo and the meat was plentiful and large portion as well. Great taste and well seasoned. They have restrooms and they take Apple Pay. Overall good experience and would stop in again.

Since I've always seen the long lines outside this store when I passed by, we decided that we try to go in as soon as it opened. So, we lined up around 11:30am. We barely waited much and we got seated. The server that day was quick/efficient/friendly despite the fact that she was running a one woman show. And the food arrived within a decent time. My friends and I decided to order the PUERTO RICAN PLATTER with a side of a side salad. This platter comes with everything you could want & maybe something that might be a bit adventurous for you to eat like blood sausage. Despite that, it's a nice platter to share and try a bit of everything. It's really nice that if you order for 4 people, they give you exactly the amount of pieces that are divisible by 4 (so everyone can try 1-2 pieces of each thing evenly). It also comes with a decent amount of rice/pork as a supplementation, which was nice. It's a balanced meal. And I think the side salad did well to balance out all the fried foods. Overall, we really enjoyed this place. It's a great place to come with friends/families to share. It's a great place as a visitor to try a bit of everything. The platter is a great introduction of puerto rican fried finger foods. And it all taste great! From the presentation of the food to the service here, it's all good. I would recommend this place to others.

Well good news, the food is still good! I stopped in during the festival of San Sebastian and the restaurant was packed! We luckily got a seat for two and were able to order right away. I order the mofongo de pollo and my friend ordered a different meal with a soup. I am not going to lie, the service was extremely slow and the food took about 30 to 40 mins maybe to come out. I expect this was because of the festival and how busy the restaurant was. When the food came out, it was delicious! The chicken was great and drenched in a salsa criolla sauce. It was definitely worth the wait! After my meal, I ordered a coffee to digest the food. Luckily this didn't take as long as the food. I would definitely recommend this place however if you are in a rush, it might be best to go somewhere else. The food is very tasty!

First of…read moreall the rest is located next to the Christopher Columbus Plaza in Old San Juan which makes it an ideal location for tourists coming in and out. The restaurant is very small inside but they do have outside dining which is what we chose to do. The service was good, they were very attentive to our needs. Unfortunately, the appetizer we ordered was just awful. We ordered a mix of very traditional Puerto Rican bites-small alcapurrias, sorrullos, chicharrónes de pollo and some fried cheese. There was absolutely nothing good about the mix. The alcapurrias has no meat whatsoever, the chicharrónes were not crispy and the cheese was just awful. I wanted to give them a 1star review but I felt this would not be fair because we did not try an entree and I hope that would be better. The 3star was because the service was good. In addition to the service later on in the evening they had live music which was essentially old traditional Puerto Rican music which was excellent. So to be fair I thought a 3 star review would be the right thing to do. Hopefully the entrees are much better just stay away from the surtido appetizer because it was not good.

Review #1,046 Posted on 4.26.26…read more We came here on Thursday the 23rd while in San Juan area for my buddies 50th birthday. This spot we had seen on social media a ton for being famous for their Mallorca sandwich, a special type bread, we got the one with bacon & American cheese. Man, I made the mistake of doing the bacon instead of ham, overthought that deal. I tried my buddies with ham n cheese and I think that was way to go. I loved how this spot had that super old school feel of like a diner. You can sit at one of the table tops, or you can do the countertop too, which has tons of seats, we all were able to sit there. I'd 100% recommend this spot, but get the ham n cheese mallorca sandwich, don't overthink it.

After a few minutes, people started trickling down and soon the place was close to being full. I liked the mallorca with ham, bacon, cheese! It was delicious. They looked small but they were filling. The pastries displayed at the window were inviting. If you're dining in, you have to tell your server that you're getting some pastries that are on display then you ask the person at the counter who also serves as the cashier to get them for you. The guava pastry was good. The vanilla bread with strawberry and pineapple/lemon was okay. They looked better than they tasted in my opinion. Payment for everything would be at the cashier after dining. If you're in San Juan, this is a place to try!

It's located close to the cruise port area, making it an effortless stop if you're exploring Old San Juan. The vibe is straightforward and comfortable--think casual, sit-down seafood spot where you can relax, grab a drink, and not overthink the menu. It's not flashy or upscale, but that's part of the appeal. Just friendly service, cold drinks, and solid food. Service * Very friendly and welcoming * Easy walk-in experience * Relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere Food & Drinks * Standard beers and cocktails--perfect for a mid-day refresher * Seafood Fried Platter - especially the fried cod; crispy, flavorful, and well-executed * Tacos (Fried Shrimp & Fried Cod) - the standout; fresh, generous portions with crunchy slaw and spot-on sauce The tacos were the surprise hit--bright, crispy, and packed with flavor. Exactly what you want from a Puerto Rican seafood lunch. Verdict Cayo Caribe is a dependable, casual seafood stop near the port. Nothing overly complicated--just good service, fresh seafood, and a relaxed setting. A great lunch choice if you're in the area and craving fried seafood and tacos. Solid four stars.

Server wasn't really present as the majority of our time there was waiting vs eating. That was true for most patrons. Most people seated at tables were waiting instead of eating. Not sure if there was an issue that night. Either way, I'd say that it's still a good spot. You just can't come hangry or in a hurry.
