    This restaurant came recommended during our visit to Cabo Rojo. Five of us went and were somewhat disappointed. To begin, the parking lot was across the street of a busy road making it a little scary to cross with my older mom who has difficulty walking. However, once inside, we were greeted and seated quickly. The ambiance is exceptional with the view of the ocean bay. We sat outside to enjoy the sights. We ordered jugo de parcha, mojitos, and soda. The juice was really good, but the drinks were weak on the alcohol and much too sweet. We then ordered a mixed appetizer which had an array of different foods like fried fish, cheeseballs, and fried corn sticks which were good. The biggest issue we found was the chuleta kan kan was very bland, and the mofongo was dry and overcooked. The Doado filet dinner was very good if you enjoy fish. The staff were super nice and accommodating. Hopefully, management will work on these issues to make it a better place for the prices people pay.

    The service is great. I ordered the chicken breast stuffed with mash and spanish sausage(chorizo). The dish was really delicious and it's probably one of the best stuffed chickens that I had in the long run! I would definitely recommend this to any locals and tourists !

    Seashore/waterfront seafood restaurant, very cool patio and colorful foods.

    We got there by chance. There was no one waiting outside so bingo let do this. Even though there was no one outside it took them 15mins to sit us at our table, terrible right? But as soon as they got us seated everything turned for the better. Food was served fast and it was good. Nice portions and good flavors. Would go back.

    We had a great experience! The staff was very friendly and polite! We sat outside, thankfully it wasn't too hot and we were able to enjoy our meal. They brought out some garlic bread, and we ordered a couple of drinks. Please do try the passion fruit mojito, it was excellent, I had two! We also ordered the fish bites, so tender, perfectly breaded, and delicious. We also had the octopus cocktail and the conch cocktail, with a side of tostones, while they didn't blow our minds, they were enjoyable. We also ended splitting the fish mofongo with salsa criolla, another tasty dish and very filling! Overall a great place with an ample menu to choose from.

    Finally went out to eat (we've been fixing up our house and eventually you are just tired of cooking or running over to your local supermarket for lunch - you've been a lifesaver Econo! ) Firstly, the view from Nautica, is out of this world gorgeous. A heads up for those sitting out on the deck in the evening, wear mosquito repellant, or long pants because those bad boys have YOU on their menu! We ordered Sorullitos, Mofonguitos, and an empanadilla de carne for appetizers. Everything was good. For entrees we ordered churrasco and chuleta kan kan with rice and beans - both amazing! The churrasco was so tender, throw chimichurri on that and forget it For dessert I had Pistachio Flan. Oh my word. Such a delicate and wonderfully balanced flavor. Not to mention the green flan is just fun to look at. Most definitely worth a visit! I'll be going again for sure.

    Mahi mahi with garlic, rice and beans and red snapper filets in island sauce.

    I was delighted to enjoy the best meal I have had so far in Puerto Rico at this restaurant. I picked here at random on my adventure to experience all coasts of the island and could not have been happier. It is quite a drive from San Juan but well worth it as better seafood dishes served here than any of the expensive city restaurants. I do not speak any Spanish but was waited on by a very helpful English speaking waiter. Mahi mahi and snapper were both phenomenal. Service and staff were great. I was halfway through my meal before I remembered to take a picture! I can't recommend this place enough! I will make the trip next time I am in San Juan... it really is that good!

    Food was mediocre and over priced. Service was very slow, the sunset view is the only perk to visiting this establishment.

Drinks: Half of our group went for The Corazon de Melon a refreshing drink, not too sweet but delicious. I had the "I don't give a cucumber"! My husband commented that his beer was perfectly cold. My hubby had the lobster and he loved it!! It was served with the mushroom. risotto. Two members of our party had the chicken and the other two the steak. They chicken was delicious. I opted for the salad with chicken because the night before I had visited another highly rated restaurant in San German and I was so disappointed by what it passed for a salad there. Roberto's salad had fresh greens and subtle flavors. Chicken cooked and flavored to perfection. It was delicious! We ended with two sample desserts: flan and carrot cake. We left happy and satisfied to get this fine dinning experience in Cabo Rojo. Bravo. Roberto. May you continue to hone n your craft and offer this quality food for years to come.
