The restaurant is located in the cute Miramar area -- also home to my favorite coffee shop, Gustos! Finding parking on Ave. Juan Ponce de León is not easy, but there are many side streets that had open parking spots. The restaurant was busy the whole time we were there, but there always seemed to be an open table. Our waiter was excellent and all the waiters we saw were bilingual. The garlic bread was ok -- tasted like garlic powder on a fluffy, lighted toasted sourdough. I had the "regular" grilled pork chops and they were the best pork chops I've ever eaten. The taste of the grill was so good and the chops were still pretty moist. My wife and kids had the churrasco skirt streak. My son said the steak at Bebo's was better, but I the steak at Los Pinos was super tender and buttery. The mofongo was so bland we didn't eat it and the amarillos (sweet plantains) were dry and lacked any caramelization on the exterior. French fries were good. As a bonus, I finally got my tres leches and it was good. I've never seen a cake oozing so much "milk" from the top of the cake when it was cut. Overall, a solid place, but Bebo's gets the win for our favorite Puerto Rican food. Regardless, I would easily return here for a meal.

It was pretty good-sized, a little fatty in places, fairly salty, very flavorful, totally delicious. It came with Arroz Mamposteao, a mixture of rice and beans similar to moro but moister. (My wife says they cook the rice and beans separately, then combine them, unlike moro. Other places put bits of ripe plantains in the mix, but Los Pinos doesn't.) I also got a side of 'Amarillos', ripe plantains, what the Dominicans call Maduros. I closed up with a Vanilla Flan, which was good. Service was good. Ambiance is mostly cafe in appearance, though quieter and dimmer at the time I was there.

I was able to sample most of the dishes here. The chicken burrito is LARGE. I did wish there was vegetables of some sort rolled up but it's a very large portion of chicken in there. I ordered the tacos el Yucatán which was two shrimp and two fish tacos. I'm not the biggest fan of seafood tacos... but they proved me wrong! The shrimp tacos were so flavorful. I'd definitely go back for more. The fish tacos were maybe one of the better fish tacos I've had but I'd say the shrimp stole the show. The fish tacos had a thicker breading making them feel heavy. The accompanying sauces were also fantastic to add some heat or sweetness if desired. I would've bought a bottle to go if possible.

We ordered a few things: - virgin pina colada (5/5): hit the spot and was so so good - mahi mahi topped fried plantains (4.5/5): this was delicious and had an accompaniment of some of the spiciest salsa. I loved the salsa and all the toppings -shrimp tacos (6/5): these are the most unique tacos I've had. The flour tortillas are crusted with Parmesan cheese and filled with the best marinated and grilled shrimp I ever had. Everything in this is packed with flavor and is an absolute winner - steak and shrimp stuffed avocado (5/5): this is the largest avocado you will ever find and everything works so well together - ceviche with avocado (5/5): perfectly marinated fish ceviche with almost too much avocado Service was pretty quick and the waitress was very helpful and friendly

It has both outdoor and indoor seating. Because the weather was hot, seating inside was a no brainer. They have a bar as well as table service. It has a cozy and clean feel inside. For lunch, their pork chop with rice and beans and beef sirloin with caramelized onions had good portions. The goat cheese flan was also nice. Other dessert options where chocolate cake with ice cream and house bread pudding. On our second time here, we got the Milanesa de pollo (chicken milanese with rice and beans) and another breaded dish with plantains. Giving this place a 4/5; service and food here were good but not superb.

There were many things I wanted to try on the menu and opted for the chefs special of Red Snapper. It was delicious. I got the whole fish which isn't something I usually see so there was some bone manipulation but the fish was tasty and tender. So good. It came with fried plantains which was a nice compliment to the fish. Service was excellent. Our server really helped us through the menu and made good suggestions. I rated it lower because I was frustrated with one thing. Usually when I have to reserve open table spots with my credit card, the charge is temporary and goes away when I show up. For whatever reason, this one said it would apply the $40 to my bill which I forgot to check for. The end result was me paying an extra $40 which is wrong. We left the next day so I could not go back and I tried DMing but no luck. It's unfortunate because we really liked the experience.

The vegetariano was mid, but the other three? No complaints. But honestly, the food is only part of the story here. The vibe is everything. Salsa playing, high energy, warm service. We rolled in late and hungry, looking for sweet refuge from La Placita crowds, and they welcomed us like we belonged there. The music started out mixed, but at some point it shifted to Contra La Corriente front to back. We were enjoying our pastelillos, singing along to No Me Conoces, minding our own business when... el apagón. Not the whole Placita, just a couple spots including this one. The staff didn't miss a beat. Flashlights came out, mood lighting appeared, and nobody rushed us. We finished our food. We paid. We left happy. 5 stars because some experiences are bigger than the sum of their parts. This was one of them.

Came around lunchtime and ordered the carne guisa with rice, beans and plantains. Also ordered a pollo alcapurria which I took to go. You know the food is good when something as simple as the rice is prepared perfectly. The carne guisa was hearty and reminiscent of pot roast, and the beans and plantains were perfect (and their house hot sauce was the perfect addition). The alcapurria on its own was filling and reminded me of our Jamaican saltfish fritters (: The portions are large so you'll definitely leave with leftovers. My waitress was knowledgeable and friendly. This will be my first stop post-landing on subsequent visits!
