After being disappointed by Bistro del Mar's lack of being open when they said they would, we ended up moseying over to Ocean View. I am glad we didn't look this one up on Yelp before coming because we might not have stopped in and that would have been a mistake because it was one of our favorite dinner restaurants in Fajardo. Ocean View, from what we could observe, is all outdoor, covered seating. This means you DEFINITELY want to spray yourself with bug spray for venturing there. We did not do this and we ended up paying for it at first but our waiter observed our plight and brought some spray out so that we were able to ward off the mosquitoes. This restaurant is right by the water where all of the kayak tours take off so the mosquitoes in this area are unavoidable but don't let that put a damper on your experience. Their food is excellent. They have delicious arepas and the portions are enormous. I ordered their octopus salad and it was SO good! I wish I could have it again right now. I ended up having octopus salad again the next day but the experience wasn't nearly as fantastic as at Ocean View. Everything they had was fresh and delicious and we had a really nice time. The service was some of the fastest we experienced in Puerto Rico and our waiter was very friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back if we return to Fajardo! read more

Firstly, the food was amazing. We ordered Paella and lobster in butter. Both were amazing! The Paella was so delicious and fresh. Also the staff were very friendly and respectful. Ashley was our waitress and she was lovely and made great suggestions. The parking spot was convenient as they have a parking lot in their backyard! Definitely recommended!!! read more

So before i get blasted for leaving this review read all my previous reiviews maybe 5 % are bad, this one qualifies nasty short attitude from the cashier ...waited almost 30 minutes for take out and then to top it off the pork platter mufungo which was hard as a hockey puck, like it'd been sprayed with hair spray, no flavor cold and hard, i dont even review unless its horrible or above 4 star quality,, usually dont even mess with places below 4 star for this reason, wasted 40$ for one person everything else was closed gave this place a chance they totally blew it i can deal with bad food but dont have a attitude and no one to speak fluent t english if you are in a tourist region read more

Unfortunately service was somewhat challenging. The servers struggled and meals didn't come out together. We try not to be critical but they did same to table next to us with one gentleman never getting his meal at all. Unfortunately alcohol drinks were disappointing as well. There are better options in the area. read more

Our large group went here after a kayak excursion. It's not fancy at all, but the service was super friendly and fast and the food was great! I had the Conch Mofungo and it was delicious! read more

I'd certainly recommend avoid this place for the following reasons: 1. Customer service. The waitress is sneaky; she tries to serve bottle of water so she can charge you extra. Once you get your water, they never try to refill it. The customer service is far from friendly here. 2. Dishonesty. The price we got charged at the end is different from the price on menu. 3. Food. it's definitely on the expensive side for the quality of the food you get. They spend almost no effort in the appetizer and the sides that come with the entre. The fish tastes okay but that's probably the only good about this place besides the location. read more

Wow! We were really kind of hesitant to check out this place because of the 2+ star reviews. But we said let's give it a try. We had the crab alcupurria and seafood empanada both were seasoned well and fresh. We had red snapper fried $35 for medium, $25 for small. The medium can feed 2. It came with 2 sides. We had coconut arepas, delicious fried bread and lettuce n tomato. We also had shrimp mofongo was seasoned with garlic and a tomato sauce. Everything was great. The server Valery was super duper attentive. The $12 bucket of 5 Corona was the icing on the cake. The people that complained about slow service need patience when waiting for freshly prepared food. read more

Came here on a whim because of its great location. It it set right on the peak of Las Croabas accross from the water. I only had fritters and piña colada but food was good, place was clean and good service. If you are looking for a no fuss beachfront shack this place does the trick. read more

Expensive and the food is not great. Got tostones de panas and they taste like old oil. The mani mahi super small, no taste at all. The only good food was the arepas de coco. read more

Very slow service. I ordered a mojito to start with my meal, and watched the drink sit on the counter for 10min before the server bothered to bring it to our table. It turns out it was just rum with sweet and sour mix. I sent it back. The waiter was completely horrible, ignoring us to the point we had to get up for service. The bill came and they charged me for the drink that was sent back. The staff tryed to BS saying they have to charge when something is ordered. I threatened to walk out if they did not go get the manager, which they finally did. Go next door to Kasaviata if you want a good meal. read more

Great service!! Parcha Mojito on point! King fish seasoned and fried perfectly Beautiful view of the ocean. Only negative is our waiter wasn't bilingual,but he provided great service. Handicap access. read more

Had a great experience eating here before our kayaking tour. We weren't too hungry and ordered rice and beans and pastillos and the food was really good. The water is bottled so be aware if you are trying to limit your use of single use plastic. The round picnic tables near the patio where beautiful and mosaic! read more

Extremely poor wait time and what's worse is the quality of the food did not justify the ridiculous wait time. I ordered the Mofongo with chicken which was pretty horrible, but chose to eat it for sake of sustenance. DO NOT EAT AT THIS PLACE, YOU WILL REGRET IT. read more

Yummy!! This was recommended by a local and I can see why! The food was so good. Yes it's more casual, but it's authentic and the service was great. It takes a while to get your food but that's because they are actually making it when you order! It's not sitting under a heat lamp or on a warmer. The beef with brandy sauce was great!! My husband liked his fish and mofongo. I would definitely come back and don't understand the bad reviews. read more

Ocean View - Beef with brandy sauce. Yum!!!!! - Barbeque Near Me - Fajardo, Puerto Rico

We took a chance on this not-so-well-reviewed restaurant... ...I'm glad we did. From the friendly staff to the piña colada to the pork mofongo, this ocean side eatery provided more than enough delicious and well-priced food to give us fuel for a kayak tour of the bay. Try it for yourself! read more

It took forever to get our food and the check afterwards. All of our food was overdone and expensive.

We were pleasantly surprised with the food and drinks. Idalia's mojitos were superb!!! Victor, our waiter was charming and very attentive. I recommend conch and octopus cocktail, which is more like a salad with plenty of conch or octopus. The mahi mahi tenders, and of course, Idalia's classic mojito! read more

Ended up here after a fiasco of places. They sat the party. Let me just say no, no, no, food is as good as you get at a $5 food spot and the service is horrible. I had to carry my food to the cashier to get a to go container and she had the nerve to ask me how much tip. Tip for what??? read more

Food was good local cuisine. The service was very good and the prices were very reasonable. Great place for scenery if you like to watch the stray dogs and the tourist come line up before they go kayaking. Overall some good local flavor. Cheap beer !!!! read more

Tourist trap. Tourist menu? Everything was expensive, except for the beers. Family of four, my wife and I had two beers each ($3 a beer). I had the seafood Mofongo, my wife had the crab Mofongo, kids (7 and 4) split a penne Alfredo from the kids menu and we had two appetizers (mozzarella stick and Puerto Rican Fried Cheese). Our bill was over $100. The food was mediocre at best. We would have spent less in the restaurant at the resort (Waldorf Astoria). Very disappointed. They must have a special tourist menu, and a separate local menu. read more

It was definitely a bit more expensive dive than other places we walked up in other areas but you are right on the bay and the breeze is delightful. I ordered the stuffed red snapper and found it to be extremely flavorful and full of seafood. The fried cheese was also very good. read more

1. TIPS are Automatically added as "SUGGESTED TIP 18%" to you bill 2. Super Slow service 3. Not so tasty food 4. You have to pay for food you didn't eat It took someone about 20 minutes to even come and take our orders. The waitress had actually no knowledge of what they served. We ordered sweet plantains and the waiter brought us the fried unsweetened plantain with shrimp and we were shocked and told her that we didn't want that and we wanted sweet plantains. We told her that we cannot eat that. She took it back and after about 10 mins brought it back to us and told we have to eat it since the kitchen has already made it and i told her that i can't pay for it but she said she can't do that and i had to pay for it since the kitchen made it. If the kitchen made me something i didn't order why should i pay for it? I didn't udnerstand that part. I ordered chicken wings, Fried Cheese ,sweet plantains and beef patty. After waiting an hour we got the shrimp and fried plantains which we didn't order , Finally i asked them to cancel everything and they gave me a check for the Shrim too.. The manager kept telling he cannot cancel it since the kitchen made it and has no authorization for cancelling it. Also the check had a 18% tip suggested added to the total and i had no strength to fight anymore since i was tired from the Bio Bay tour. Anyways please avoid this place and go to any place next door. They are all awesome according to the people we talked ... read more

Amazing food, incredibly friendly service!!! forget the bad reviews, these are obviously from tourists with no patience... the fried pork mofongo and fried cheese was as local and flavorful as u can get, waitress couldn't have been more polite, and the wait was shorter than expected for both meals prepared fresh.. loved it !!!! read more

Ocean View - Fried Pork Mofongo !!!! so good ... - Barbeque Near Me - Fajardo, Puerto Rico

Ordered ala carte: arros con abichuelas, alcapurria con carne and plantain mofongo. Hit the spot while waiting for biobay tour. Food was flavorful and service was excellent! Nice open air spot to come eat and watch the water. read more

The food was decent, and it's overpriced just like everything in this area. The service is a real bummer. Very slow and inattentive. read more

I couldn't rate it as 0 star. If I could, I will do it. After 1.5 hours waiting, we still didn't get our meal with any excuse. The only kids meal we had is not any better than school lunch in my daughter's comments. We left w/o eating, but are forced to pay 15% tips for drinks on the check. If you don't want to ruin your trip, avoid this restaurant, although it has the best location. This is surely the worst experience I have ever had. read more

The paella was good, but the mofongo was extremely disappointing. It was so salty, and the pork was really dry and tough. Not really worth your money, go to Bistro Del Mar instead!! It's a food truck nearby. read more

Nice little spot to watch some boats go by or just watch some fisherman while chowing down on some of their yummy appetizers but we had some time to kick before going snorkeling and decided to stop in for a quick bite to eat. Our waitress was nice she made our food quick and prompt cause she knows we had to get back to the boat before they left us.But will be back.xoxo read more

Good restaurant for the price. It's one of the cheapest in the area. The service was good, tad bit slow but not that bad. The hamburger was overcooked...The buffalo wings were delicious, and the chicken penne pasta was mediocre. Have cheap beer though. read more

My significant other and I were looking for a place to kill time before kayaking. We were nervous about the 2.5 star review but it was the only place open. We were pleasantly surprised!! The service was great. Everyone was nice and attentive. They make a yummy strong margarita. We split chicken mofongo. It was yummy albeit quite salty. Don't let the star rating deter you too much! read more

horrible! horrible! horrible! horrible! Save your money and go somewhere else. My girlfriend and I were immediately warned by someone the minute we stepped into their restaurant that I should "sit where they can see you because they will forget to serve you". But I went in anyway trying to be optimistic. So let me tell exactly what happened. * it took 10-15 minutes for someone to give us the menus. My girlfriend's menu had food stuck on it. A male waiter came and gave me a different menu which was about the only adequate service we received from this place. * the drinks were weak although the piña colada was tasty but it seemed like there was no alcohol. * it took nearly 40 minutes for the food to come out. *ordered rice and never came out. * found hair in the food and immediately stopped eating. Mind you, it was probably my 4th bite into the mofongo. * a female waiter gave us a check and had the audacity to charge us the meal that had the hair in it. AND also for the rice that never came. * the check said "sorry for the inconvenience." How absurd! * asked for manager. Of course the manager didn't come out. * the female waiter came twice to our table to retrieve the check and did not say a word to us. BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER! read more

We stopped over to grab a quick drink and appetizers... our server Eli made quick & delish vegetarian recommendations. White Sangria was a must try... along with Spinach & Mushroom Empanadas read more

I give this restaurant a one star only because it's the lowest available.... They don't deserve a star. Went there prior to our bio tour and we sat our selves and the waitress left us sitting there for 10 minutes before coming to greet us than we asked before we ordered how long it took to get the food because we were on a time crunch and she recommended certain dishes that would only take 15 minutes or appetizers so we ordered what she recommended. Our drinks never arrived we had to get up to the bar and get the drinks ourselves we only order water at first. 50 minutes later we got part of our order and ended up canceling the rest. During the wait she never checked in with us or asked how we were doing instead she would go and hide in the back. Worst service ever. read more

Amazing food !!!! Venture out and have some traditional Puerto Rican food . The plantains , mofongo and other dishes are amazing. While staying at the conquistador resort venture out food is cheaper than the resorts food and way better. Why not try traditional food that's homemade like grandmas cooking. Instead of a 15 dollar pizza at the hotel you can have a 15 dollar feast. Highly recommend if you re staying at the el conquistador! Wonderful people ! read more

Ocean View - Chicken mofongo special on Thursday for 9 something ! Was amazing - Barbeque Near Me - Fajardo, Puerto Rico

Seriously think it was the WORST service I've ever had. We thought we were possibly being punk'd it took so long to get our food. The fact that there was a crowd of people eating here when we drove up totally fooled us. I wish I would have checked the reviews on here before we dropped $100 on dinner. And as pretty common for PR, they do add the "suggested tip" to the total, so beware of that as well.. read more

I hate giving bad reviews but my experience here was horrible. I got 3 bites by mosquitos. The worst part about it is that me and my family waited an hour and a half for our food. Not only that but they got my order wrong. I had asked for a lobster mofongo and I just got lobster. I was pissed at this moment but my really nice host gave me a side of mofongo. Good wasn't that bad but I wouldn't come here again. Sorry. read more

This place is most certainly not good for groups! All our food came in different times, one of the appetizers came with one of the food plates which was very bland and unflavored and my sister who was the first to order received her simple order of chicken strips and mofongo last. The chicken was hard, the sorullitos are hollow, the mofongo is tasteless and all is overly priced! The service is a 4/10, it takes a long time for the waiter to come and not very attentive. read more
