We stopped here on the road between Ponce and San Juan, and since we didn't have a lot of time, we…read moredidn't wander too far down the Ruta del Lechon (Pork Highway). This place is right on the main highway, it's huge and packed so plan accordingly: we arrived before noon on a Friday, so we probably got one of the last parking spots (there's a guy managing or charging in the parking lot? not sure) and the line was manageable. A large group and some buses showed up after us, so it got really crowded! Anyway, we had a short line, had no idea what we were doing to order (I should have researched better) but pointed and nodded, and with some help from the nice people in line, ended up with two huge platters of pork, rice and some other sides - way more food that we probably needed. The food: delicious! I would say our #2 favorite meal in Puerto Rico, after Marmalade (but that was more than 10x the price!) The pork was delicious, juicy, flavorful, and the crackling was to die for! I wish they would package those and sell them - probably only good fresh, though. Rice and sides were adequate: my son tried to be healthy and said the salad and potatoes were ok, but you're really there for the pork. Cost etc.: we paid less than $50 for 2 enormous plates of food and some sodas. It was enough for 3 lunch servings, plus enough leftovers for 2 people to have the rest for dinner - so I guess 5 servings? The wait was not bad early on a weekday, but they must get incredibly overrun on weekends. It is entertaining to see the pork cooking on a spit (please don't come if you are vegetarian and sensitive to such things) and watch them hacking away with machetes. My husband wondered if the machetes are the same once used for sugar cane!

During our trip to Puerto Rico, we made a stop at a lechónera- a restaurant that serves lechón (one…read moreof PR's unofficial national dishes), which is a whole, slow-roasted pig. This restaurant is just one of many open-air roadside spots that serve lechón along "La Ruta del Lechón", aka the "pork highway" in Guavate. We got a half pound of lechon along with Mamposteao, which was delicious and filling. The pork skin hit a level of shatteringly crispy texture that I have never had from non-fried pork skin. We came later in the day, which unfortunately meant that the pork was slightly dried out. However, the texture and flavor of the lechón was absoutely delicious. It's a "build your own box" style restaurant where you choose which sides you want on the dipslay. Besides the mamposteao there were also other delicious-looking sides such as plantains/mofongo, beans, fruit, etc. There's a small parking lot outside the restaurant- one where the rule is you can only back your car into your parking space. Interesting. Would definetely come to try lechón here again!

Sabado 13 de mayo de 2023 fuimos buscando un restaurante para almorzar pero sin rumbo. No le…read morerecomiendo eso y mas si tienen hambre. Llegamos a este local sin saber por que tenía otro nombre en Google. Llegamos y pedimos dos jugos naturales de parcha y tamarindo y no sabían a nada como dicen por acá agua de piringa y hielo. No pedimos aperitivos y fuimos directo a la comida. Chuletas Kan Kan como arepas y costillas de cerdo con batatitas fritas. No soy dado a las carnes rojas pero el menú es limitado así que no había opción. Servicio fue bueno y tiene buen estacionamiento, parece más un local para chinchoriar los fines de semana. La comida estaba súper salada. Aunque no lo crea la comida que sobró estaba mejor al otro día que el mismo día que lo pedimos. Para que le gusta el chinchoreo le va a gustar el que buscar algo más especial además del nombre pues no. Pero con todo y eso se pasó un rato agradable pero si hace Sol y calor no se siente debajo del techo de zinc!!! Y llévese su cojín como yo por que los asientos afuera de madera de Paleta.

My family and I stopped by for a late lunch, around 3 pm, 2 weeks ago when visiting the island and…read moremaking it a day trip from San Juan to visit Las Delicias waterfall. We were starving and tired after the drive with kids and had noticed Asao on the way to the falls - it was on a short list of places we drove by to go to for lunch after our short waterfall hike. We were the only patrons there the entire time we were there. They were starting to set up Christmas lights as we arrived. Our waitress was very nice - she didn't know English too well so called over another waitress or bartender to help communicate the menu better for us. We ended up ordering chicken tenders for the kids, and a combo order of pork, ribs, and chicken. Everything tasted incredibly fresh; however, I will be honest - I didn't particularly like the smoky flavor of the meat. Not at any fault of the restaurant- it just wasn't my particular taste. It's a bit too game-y in taste for me. The service was excellent. The setup and open air feel of the restaurant was great as well.
