Authentic Puerto Rican food. The food and service is so ah-mazing that I doubled back before leaving the island. I ordered the garlic shrimp with rice and beans and a side of tostones. My friends ordered skirt steak, pork, chicken and shrimp, yucca and maduros. We cleaned our plac read more

Went to Mi Casita for breakfast as it's within walking distance of our Airbnb. We were greeted by the owner and told to sit anywhere. Our waiter came and took our drink order and brought them out promptly. I ordered the Breakfast Special with bacon. M daughter asked for her eggs over medium with bacon. She didn't get her bacon, but they didn't charge her for it and her eggs came out over easy. We also ordered a mushroom omelet and a western omelet. Another couple came in and ordered after us and received their food before us. We are use to island time and we're on vacation so didn't make a big deal about it but it was noticeable. The food was okay and prices were reasonable. Overall, we'll probably go to other local spots for the rest of our visit. read more

Gem, in airport area. I am a Caribbean food apologist as I love the flavors and the vibes. This restaurant was recommended to me by a friend. It's a mimi/papi establishment and proud of it. Here's my three things: 1) Don Q and rum ‍ all night have fun. RELAX 2) Mufungo + Pulpo + Garlic is magic! Do It!! 3) if you don't like my suggestions then scan the menu, ask Q's, and find your flavor. This staff aims to please in my opinion. read more

I had a fantastic experience at this local gem. I visited 4 times. Breakfast and dinner The food was delicious and the service was just as impressive. Our server Luis was attentive, friendly. Great prices too. It's not always easy to find a place that checks all the boxes, but this one definitely does. Highly recommend if you're in the area--you won't be disappointed read more

I've been coming here for the past 15 years, and it's always been fabulous. The monfongo is awesome, I always get the churrasco mofongo! Service has been quick and orderly, albeit if the restaurant is crowded(like it always is at peak times), the wait might be a bit much if you're not on island time. The sangria is great, and has the perfect sweetness without being overwhelming. Restaurant has not changed in 15 years, and the setting is what is to be expected. I'd recommend this place many a times over, so not certain why some people give it a lower rating than 4-5 stars. read more

Came in for a very late dinner after a very long and unplanned stressful travel day. We ordered a variety of things. It took a very very long time to get food. Our server was hard to track down. I got the shrimp in garlic sauce. For a garlic sauce it lacked garlic. The yuca fries were not cut uniformly so some were over cooked some where ok and others undercooked. Also lacked seasoning. Over all I was unimpressed with the place our uber driver recommended. Wouldn't return read more

We walked in and were seated and served quickly, our server was sweet and told us about the nightly special, it was a dish with pernil, arroz con gandules, pasteles and salad, sounds great! We got that and also a mofongo with beef. Everything came out and was tasty, nothing spectacular but all good! read more

My husband and I had gone for dinner we were seated promptly but not given menus. After waiting patiently for several minutes we flagged someone down to get them. More waiting to order, finally we received our drinks (which were very good).More waiting and waiting finally our dinners arrived. I ordered the seasoned beef with red bean and rice, husband had chicken with garlic sauce.It was tasty but not hot. After waiting as long as we did I would have expected our meals to at least be on the warm side. The restaurant was not crowded and yet it seems like everyone dining had to wait exceptional long for their meals read more

If you're looking for typical Puerto Rican food but don't want to be overcharged, this is the place. Tasty items - like mofongo, yuca, tostones.. all delicious. Very casual atmosphere. While they do have other items on the menu, I don't recommend. Stick with Medalla or soda, mixed drinks were not so great. Decent service. read more

The food is truly authentic and traditional. The Navideño plate gives you a taste of Puerto Rico! Their Yuca Frita is beyond this world, with the pink sauce is even better. It is small, but cozy. The service was excellent and did not have to wait long. The food came out rather quick. Don't leave without trying their Guava Cheesecake! read more

I last ate here in 2006 until this past week, and the food was as good as I remembered. The staff is efficient, but definitely lacking any interest in being personable. Order, eat and get the hell out! Just as I remembered in 2006. Cheers! read more

Hidden gem!! We came into the parking lot to go somewhere else, but something about this place caught our attention. When we came to the door the manager said they were closed, but a waiter came over and said he would take care of us, so they let us in. The food was so good, we knew someone's grandma must be in that kitchen cooking. The best mofongo con bistek we've had!! The salad had pieces of amarillos in it. Dessert was yummy too! Needless to say, service was over the top: truly fantastic. The decor is very homey- feels like eating with family. Great music also. Highly recommend!! read more

Excellent food! Excellent Service! Very Friendly staff! Definitely recommend for anyone visiting San Juan!

Asked for recommendation and was suggested the chicken mofongo in garlic sauce by waiter. Waited 20 min and inquired where was the food. They said hold on. When it became 30 min waiting for this special recommendation i left. No one bothered to check on me if i wanted bread while waiting or another soda or advise what was the hold up. I stood up and left. Good luck read more

Unfortunately, our experience here was disappointing. The appetizer we ordered was very dry and lacked flavor. We also got a pitcher of sangria, which was mostly ice and not very sweet--definitely not what we were hoping for. As for the entrées, they arrived somewhat cold and were quite bland, which made the meal underwhelming overall. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere was nice, but the food didn't meet our expectations. With some adjustments to the seasoning, preparation, and drink proportions, I think there's potential for improvement. read more

The food is okay, but the service can be alarmingly poor. You can be seated for 15 minutes without seeing a menu. Or you can get a menu immediately, then be ignored for a half hour. We stay away. read more

My Mofongo was delicious and full of garlic sauce! Wow! Waiter was friendly and explained everything. We will definitely try again.

Tried this place because I was curious and the last time I walked past it it was closing for the night. I was immediately seated by the staff and offered a physical menu in addition to the qr code on the table. As a lover of all thing Mofongo I ended up ordering the beef version and was pleased by both the affordability and portion size, usually you get either a small portion for and expensive price or rather bland versions for about the same. Glad to say that the flavor was enjoyable especially if you enjoy tomato and garlic and the meat was in abundance. Will probably come by in the future to try the pork shoulder I saw another customer ordered after I saw it and asked him what it was, hope you guys keep up the good work. read more

Today's date is July 22, 2025 Me and my 3 friends went to this restaurant Mi Casita isla verde puerto rico at 7pm. While sitting down about to eat our food the owner sat at the table behind us,he proceeded to ask for our names, ages and when we would be departing. As he continued speaking he started asking us if we had boyfriends,if we were single, then asked my friend how old she was which she replied 23 and married and he still said was ok that he was single. He continued to sexually harass us and when we tried to leave he ordered us to sit down 4x and we nervously sat back down. The owner told the waiter to get us Flan. He even told us the waiter was his nephew named Dennis and- told Dennis that he had girls for him. Meaning us. I would not recommend this place, we were not only uncomfortable we were scared. This is not professional place. read more

*valentines night review for first day in Puerto Rico* -very polite staff -coconut mojito was good -owner was nice and friendly -mofongo (first time trying btw) lacked salt. I was unable to taste the plantain flavor and the $27 beef we got also had conservative salt. It's unfortunate because the aroma was nice- I just wasn't able to taste the flavors I had hoped for. -left room had some fun ambiance -right room where we were seated was very bright -bathrooms were small but clean & out of paper towels. Bottom lock on bathroom door did not lock and door was held with a bar lock. -overall a positive experience read more

Came here on my honeymoon. Recommended by someone on my tiktok lol small cute place. We were seated right away. Then had to move my husband was hot. I love mofongo I ordered the garlic one. My husband ordered asopao de. Camarones. Shrimp soup basically. He enjoyed it so much just hated he had to take out the heads of the shrimps. My mofongo was soft but wayyy too much garlic I couldn't finish it. The margarita was not great. The food took long. I think they cook it as you order. Service was excellent very attentive. Would come again just try something else read more

I was in Puerto Rico with my significant other and we wanted to experience Puerto Rican food, so we chose this spot! We dined inside at a table. The place wasn't that big. I enjoyed their water, which was complimentary, and I ordered a Coco Rico. The Coco Rico came in a can and it was very refreshing! I loved the unique taste. For food, we shared the Mi Casita Salad, Beefsteak Mofongo, and Chicken Mofongo. The Mi Casita Salad had Romaine lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, diced sweet plantains and mozarella cheese. We chose "criolla" sauce for the Beefsteak Mofongo and garlic sauce for the Chicken Mofongo. I felt I had to try the Mofongo and I was hopeful for the best! Our waiter brought out the salad with oil and vinegar. The plantains really stood out to me, but all of the ingredients on it teamed up to create an amazing salad! The oil and vinegar even tasted right on it! The Beefsteak Mofongo was good at first, but the taste did wear out a bit faster than I would have liked it to. The Chicken Mofongo was practically the same situation. I enjoyed it at first, but it became tiring towards the end. Regardless of that, Mofongo was still an interesting and enjoyable thing to try! The service was friendly. Our waiter got us everything we needed in a timely manner. Overall, this was a good spot to experience Puerto Rican food for my first time! I recommend this place to anyone trying to do the same. I'm glad I stopped and opened my taste buds to something new. Date of visit: Mar 01,23 read more

My husband and I went on a Thursday night. It was definitely busy. Our food came 35min after ordering which is understandable but we were both borderline hangry. And then to make the situation worse, the food was disappointing. The prices are expensive too. I would not recommend this place. There was one waiter that was really nice but one that was not so nice. read more

I frequent this place a lot and i think because of covid it's went downhill. You're seated quickly , but it takes forever to get your food and drinks . Once you get your food the waiters are nonexistent at that point which is unfortunate . I ate chicken , rice and beans and plantains for lunch the chicken was okay , more dry. Plantains we're good but the rice was horrible , it tasted like it was from a week prior . I ate here for dinner and opted for the chicken mofungo and it was way better than lunch. Drinks were nice and strong as well. read more

Took the family to Mi Casita for dinner. We were promptly seated and our drink requests were taken. This was a Puerto Rican restaurant, so I ordered a Puerto Rican beer - Medalla. My wife requested aranitas as an appetizer, which was served quickly. For dinner, I requested shrimp mofongo in creole sauce. A while later, dinner was served. My mofongo was very good. I've had better though. The service and ambience at Mi Casita were very nice. read more

We stopped in after a long day at the beach and decided to give this place a try after hearing about it from friends. The place is small but they had plenty of tables to service their customers. We were immediately seated and read on the menu that our food would take a little longer than usual because everything is made to order. We were fine with that since it would be freshly made. Honestly, it was not that long. We were not so hungry so we just shared two small plates. For starters we had the octopus cocktail which was delicious. It was served over a salad. The portion size was excellent considering it was just an appetizer. In addition I had the carne frita with tostones. It was good but I have definitely had better. The chunks of pork were big but I felt they may have over cooked them just a tad bit. The outside was crunchy but inside it was fine. Overall, we liked the place and will probably try some other items in the future since we frequent the beach every time we visit the island. The decor inside was very nice, we enjoyed looking at the original pieces of art work they had hanging on their walls. read more

We only waited about 15 minutes for our food, I'd definitely return to thus restaurant :) read more

When we first arrived we were seated immediately. But we waited a long time before anyone ever came to service us. My skirt steak was dry and the shrimp tasted seafood like .
