It is outside though, so be prepared to swat away flies lol. I got the tamarind sticky ribs and a pork belly taco. They were both so good and had a balance of sweet and savory. The taco was refreshing as well from the watermelon! Would recommend trying that one. They also have happy hour 12-6pm for a rum based drink with juice or sodas. I believe it was $5. I got a passion fruit one and it was strong.

San Juan smokehouse itself had decent service, and very reasonable prices for San Juan. Might be our least expensive meal of the trip. I had the pulled pork nachos and they were large and under $10. My husband had ribs and they were $24 with a side. He liked them. And I liked mine. Definitely not the best either of us have had but good enough. We loved the outdoor seating and atmosphere.

Review #1,048 Posted on 4.28.26…read more We came here for lunch while in town in late April, on Friday the 24th. We were hungry after drive back from rain forest El Yunque. This was one of the better meals I had while in the Carolina/San Juan area of PR. They're famous for their chicken. We tried the pork, pork spare ribs, & rotisserie chicken. We also got the sweet plantain, Puerto Rican rice too. Out of the 3-4 places I ate the rice at, this spot was the best one. The food was excellent, so tender and flavorful too. The pork fell right off of the rib bone, and the pull pork was so tender and good. The prices here are beyond fair, you can get a good amount of food for a really good price. You can tell why there was a line that was pretty long when we arrived, for sure a reputable tourist spot that no doubt holds up to their reputation.
