Stopped by this place on our way back from Rincon to San Juan and boy the food really surprised us…read more We ordered the Yuca Mofongo with creole sauce and it as delicious along with the Shrimp Camarones (delicious shrimp and tomato gravy served with a side of flavored rice) and not to forget the delicious Pina Coladas. Service was great, food and drinks were awesome. Value for money -10/10. Highly recommend if in the area.

Pedimos un par de cosas para la mesa y las compartimos todas: los sliders, los camarones empanados, sorullitos, almojábanas y los tacos de pescado. No sé ni por dónde empezar... todo estuvo tan cabrón (perdón por el lenguaje, pero no hay otra palabra que lo describa mejor). Los sorullitos son de los mejores que he probado en la isla. No sé cuál es la receta, pero se botaron. Las almojábanas estaban perfectas y con la salsita de guayaba para el dipping fue el sweet treat perfecto. Los sliders vienen con bacalaitos en vez de pan... no sé a quién se le ocurrió eso, pero DEVORASTE. Que ricooo! Los camarones eran gigantes y estaban brutales también. Creo que fue la mejor comida que comí en PR en mi viaje más reciente. De verdad, se botaron.... Este restaurante tiene que estar en la lista de todo el mundo como un MUST si están por Rincón. Nos vemos el verano que viene cuando vuelva a PR.

The food is elevated Puerto Rican cuisine with a creative twist, blending traditional flavors with modern flair that keeps you trying new things with every visit. The atmosphere is laid-back but thoughtfully styled -- upscale but very informal -- a perfect reflection of our local food scene. Cocktails are fun and flavorful and the staff is attentive and knowledgeable. The menu is in Spanish but the servers happy walk you through it.

Once we hit the door, a host informed us it would be about a 15 minute wait to be seated and about 45-60mins for our food to come out. We weren't upset that meant that the food would be prepared fresh and come out hot. Our server welcomed us and reminded us what the host had informed us and suggested we get appetizers to hold us over a bit. Drinks came out and were very good (mojitos) and our appetizer of the octopus salad. Now when our meals came out and we each tasted what we ordered, we were in heaven and eating from each others plates. This was a must go to spot for good food. The garlic shrimp w/mofongo were amazing.

Unfortunately I forgot to take photos of our main dishes which were the Shrimp risotto, and the chicken and bacon fettuccine. Both were surprisingly different base flavors for a similar seeming sauce. I would absolutely go back for the risotto. I did get photos of the mofongo pizza and the key lime pie that we took to go. The pizza was an interesting twist on both dishes, a crispy mofongo crust with cheese and veggie toppings, we did enjoy it but probably something we tried and might not need to order again. The pie had a huge layer of cream on top, and soggy bottom, not traditional but very pretty.

The fried plantains and the fried rice with beans were excellent, bursting with the kind of flavors you only find in the Caribbean. The ceviche and red snapper were fresh but a bit bland, which may have been due to my expectations being set a little too high. The service was great, and they speak English. It's a cute little place, and I really enjoyed my brunch there.

Every item we tried -- from the lechón to the yucca and potato salad -- was overwhelmingly salty,…read moreto the point that it overpowered any other flavor. It genuinely felt as though salt had been used without restraint. The only dishes that were reasonably enjoyable were the amarillos and the arroz con gandules, which at least had some balance and authenticity. Unfortunately, dessert did not redeem the experience. The bread pudding also carried an unexpected salty taste and seemed as though it had been sitting out for quite some time. The beans were equally disappointing and lacked freshness or depth of flavor. Overall, the meal was deeply underwhelming, especially considering the expectations for traditional Puerto Rican cuisine. Regrettably, this is not a restaurant I would return to. Cada uno de los platos que probamos -- desde el lechón hasta la yuca y la ensalada de papa -- estaba excesivamente salado, al punto de opacar cualquier otro sabor. Honestamente, parecía que la sal se había usado sin ninguna moderación. Los únicos platos relativamente agradables fueron los amarillos y el arroz con gandules, que al menos tenían algo de balance y autenticidad. Lamentablemente, el postre no logró mejorar la experiencia. El budín de pan también tenía un sabor salado inesperado y parecía haber estado expuesto por bastante tiempo. Los habichuelas también fueron decepcionantes y carecían de frescura y sabor. En general, la comida fue sumamente decepcionante, especialmente considerando las expectativas de una cocina puertorriqueña tradicional. Desafortunadamente, es un restaurante al que no volvería ni recomendaria.

The cuerito (pork skin) literally melts in your mouth. Everything well seasoned. Rice dishes: Arroz con gandules and arroz con longaniza cooked to perfection. Marinated green bananas were really good (this is one of my favorite side dishes and I'm picky about them lol). They serve generous portions. The woman at the window was super friendly and provided us with some of the best customer service (keep in mind there was a heat advisory and she was working without air conditioning). Will definitely go back when traveling through the area.
