I ordered the Churrasco House Roll, Chicken Fried Dumplings, Bichiyal Roll, and a frappe--and everything was absolutely delicious! The flavors were unique, fresh, and beautifully presented. The menu has so many creative options that I honestly wish I could try them all in one sitting. The live music added such a lively and enjoyable atmosphere, making the experience even better. Our server was also so phenomenal , upon arrival everyone was very friendly. Whether you're local or just visiting Puerto Rico, this spot is a must-try. Can't wait to come back!

We arrived at 11am on a Monday because that's when we thought they opened. They actually opened at 11:30am, so we were 2nd in line at 11am. Once 11:30am rolled around, the line was very long. It's an old house that was transformed into a restaurant. It's pretty big in there and they have an upstairs as well. It really feels like you're eating in a Caribbean home, from the colorful tablecloth to the things on the tables. The menu is on a board, and they have a Spanish and English version. They give you a cup of complimentary plantain soup which was amazing. We also ordered the fried cheese app which came with a delicious guava sauce. For mains, I had the fried pork with tostones and my husband had the mamposteado (corned beef, fried eggs, and rice). My husband cleaned his plate, while I took leftovers back to the hotel (which we actually ate later because it was that good). They were out of tres leches that day, so we had the coconut pudding for dessert. It was my first time trying coconut pudding and it did not disappoint! For drinks, we had the passionfruit sangria. When we left, there was a very long line outside. Despite the line, they did not rush us out. Definitely recommend and would go out of my way to come back next time I'm in PR.

Keepin' it a buck! Eating here is like eating the ultimate home-cooked Puerto Rican meal…read more Rating places in Puerto Rico is tough. There are so many spots that are authentic and incredible, but La Casita Blanca stands out in its own lane. It's gotten more popular and touristy over the years, but that's because they've stayed true to who they are. The authenticity here hasn't changed, and that's exactly why people keep coming. This is the kind of place where the menu brings you right back to your upbringing. You'll find dishes like corned beef, tostones con bacalao, and other classics that just hit differently. And the vibe? It feels like family. Someone who looks like your aunt might be cooking your food, your cousin might be serving it, and everyone treats you like you belong there. Food-wise, everything we had was fire. One of the people I was with is basically an "aguacateologist," and even he said it was one of the best he's ever had. That alone says a lot. Chuletas fried to a perfect golden crisp. The pollo fricasé (pollo guisado, if you know, you know) was on point and even came in a little pot that made it feel extra homey. Arroz con gandules? Off the hook!!!! And to top it all off, they had salsa playing in the background... which honestly had me sold the moment I walked in. Disclaimer/Warning; There will be a line!!! And if you're lucky enough to get a table, sit back and enjoy every second of it.

I really wanted fried fish in San Juan and got recommended El Jibarito…read more We went almost near their closing time, unknowingly and still got to be able to sit and got my craving in for fried fish! It's a casual restaurant with limited seating that I think is also a bit popular. When we walked in to dine and we did have to wait a bit and put our name down on the waiting list. However, the time flew by I think it was maybe 20 minutes max and we were able to be seated at a table. My partner ordered the steak, but I wasn't the biggest fan of it. it did come with the plantain side. That was super delicious. Overall, for the both of us and a couple of drinks we spent US$90 with tip and each entrée was about $35-$30.

Y'all, I'm gonna make this quick so I can get back to my food…read more This is one of the best meals I had in Puerto Rico. Hands down. Period. They are open 24/7 and deliver on Uber Eats so you have no excuse not to get you some. The bacalaitos were delicious! Chewy and tender and perfectly fried. Generous portion. Enough to share, although if you reach over here you might pull back a nub. Moving on... The rice and beans. Savory, saucy delicious carbs. What's not to love? Amarillos/platanos/fried sweet plantain (whatever you want to call them)... Yum!! Mind you, they're not caramelized like their Jamaican or Trinidadian counterparts... So adjust your expectations accordingly. I had some cilantro crema leftover from another meal that I thought would be good with them... And I was so right. And last, but certainly not least... The flan de coco. I love flan, but I've never had coconut flan... Until now. Easily one of the best flans I've ever had and probably the best dessert I've had out of all of my trips to Puerto Rico. Ok, I gave y'all all the information you need to know about this place. Why are you still reading this? Go get you some! And if you don't, that's fine too... I'll just eat your share. And no you can't have any.

This used to be one of my favorite spots, but not anymore…read more Service was slow even though it wasn't busy. We waited a long time for water, the appetizer came after the main dishes, and no one checked on us. We had to ask multiple employees just to get water once the food arrived. The food was the biggest disappointment. The churrasco plantain sandwich was dry and flavorless. The mofongo and yuca with chicken were bland, and the chicken was tough and needed seasoning. The staff was polite, but not attentive. Being told the tip was "15% no less" at the end didn't sit right either. There are too many great Puerto Rican options out there -- we won't be back.

For the appetizers we ordered chicken empanada & the mashed potatoe balls with meat in the middle. The service was fast. We ordered our food and barely waited before we were eating. All the servers were amazingly polite. Our server was super helpful explaining the dishes and patient to me. The Pina colada is good too! But not strong with Don Q so if u like it strong u may want to order an extra shot. ¡Todo estuvo súper delicioso! Conseguí la langosta y mi marido consiguió los camarones. A un lado probamos el arroz con frijoles, el mofongo y los plátanos. El marido probó los tostones. Para los aperitivos pedimos empanada de pollo y bolas de puré de patatas con carne en el medio. El servicio fue rápido. Pedimos nuestra comida y apenas esperamos antes de comer. Todos los servidores fueron increíblemente educados. Nuestro camarero fue muy servicial al explicarme los platos y paciencia. ¡La piña colada también es buena! Pero no es fuerte con Don Q, así que si te gusta fuerte, es posible que quieras pedir un trago adicional.

Location/Service ***** Casita Martell is tucked away into a big hill, surrounded by flamboyan trees, and a beautiful view of the sunset! It looks smaller than it is, they have indoor and outdoor dining. Our server was really good, my children don't speak Spanish and our waiter spoke English so it was nice for them to communicate directly. Drinks *** We ordered pina coladas and sadly they did underwhelm a bit. I was expecting it to be a bit more icy and it was more creamy, the heat outside did not work well with a creamy drink. Food **** The plate food (bistek, pork chop, rice, beans) was to good, nothing over the top but not bad, just a good, flavorful meal. The octopus salad was also decent, nice flavor, but I don't think it was fresh, it tasted like the octopus you get out of a can. The shrimp . . . THE SHRIMP! Now those blew my mind! Absolute MUST order. The rellenos de papa were also super delicious! I wish I would've just ordered a tons of those! I'm already looking forward to my next trip back to PR to get some more!

I may be a bit harsh in this review, because I had been referred to this restaurant by friends and…read morefamily alike, and the experience was subpar. Great location in the San Patricio area. Parking can be a bit tedious but I lucked out with one right in front of it. Ambiance is nice and warm. Seems that there's some trend with some of these newer restaurants to make some sort of more private area for groups bigger than 8, as I saw at least one room that was separated by a glass door, assuming to drown out the noise. Appetizers came out quick. Had the sorullitos and the fried cheese. Sorullitos were okay - I've had much nicer ones. The guava sauce for the queso frito was very good. I will admit that the portion size was great. Main dishes were not spectacular. The stuffed mero with shrimp probably was the best tasting and presented. The kids liked their churrasco but their mofongo, just like my bifongo, was just dry. Very dry and tough in terms of texture. We had to order some garlic sauce so the kids would be able to eat theirs and there was an upcharge for that but it was either that or them not eating. My dish was not appetizing in terms of presentation - just looks like things were thrown around, and the taste was a bit bland. I had some arroz mamposteado as well which was better, but nowhere near expectations. Pretty place with upscale pricing serving subpar food. Would try again one more time to see if it was a one-off, but not holding my breath.
