    We love El Pescador! It's one of our favorite places in Fajardo for fresh seafood, and we've always…read morehad a great experience here. The ceviche is seriously one of the best we've ever had. So fresh and full of flavor! The lobster with butter sauce is delicious, and the shrimp with butter sauce is just as good. Everything always tastes fresh and cooked perfectly. We also love the location. It's in a cute little area where you can walk around before or after dinner and enjoy Fajardo. Great seafood, great atmosphere, and a place we always look forward to coming back to!

    All things went well. The hostess was attentive indeed as…read morewe arrived and she was able to get us through a side door and into the inside air conditioning indoor area. We do travel with a wheelchair. The server was very good and well knowledgeable on the menu. He was even photographed in the menu. We ordered a couple cocktails as well as many appetizers. We didn't order any entrees, as our family likes to try many things. My wife's favorite is ceviche and she was impressed by this dish. (Order it) We also ordered fish bites. Solid choice as the guava sauce was memorable. La arepas de coconut. Solid. The fish empanadas were great. Definitely order those. But calamari was chewy and overcooked. I'd pass on this. Cocktails were amazing. Spicy margarita is spicy!! I had a mojito which was delicious. You won't go wrong with any cocktail. Server was great. He did mention to me that we should order soon as the kitchen will get busy. We waited as we were enjoying our dinner. (We didn't have any problems) I'd go back. I'd also suggest sticking to your plan. It's your evening and don't let service control the experience. At the end of it...you control the tip = thank you.

    We really, really, really loved our time here. We have been here before for a quick drink and a…read moreshot of mamawana - ask for it, trust - but tonight was our first night enjoying dinner. The menu is big. It's local. They sell out as the night goes on. All of the servers do not speak English really well. But, honestly, if you have a question that can't be answered, there's someone around you can talk to. We ordered sautéed fish and the stewed chicken. Each entree comes with three sides - my favorites were the plantains, red beans, and Cole slaw. Rice was also good. The cook was also grilling pork that smelled AMAZING and when I asked my server if I could have whatever he was making, she literally snuck me over a side plate of smoked and grilled pork. So freaking good. This is not your typical Cruz bay restaurant. This is local. It's delicious. There is live music. Appreciate what you are getting. If you want cute fish tacos, this place isn't for you. We had a cocktail at the Windmill Bar during sunset and then popped over here (practically next door), to order some food. Tables are picnic style tables. All outside. Service is great but food is cooked to order so it might be slow. Enjoy it! We had multiple beers and a couple mamawana shots and two entrees and our total was about $75. Definitely our least expensive meal on St. John ever.

    Authentic cuisine. Not as good as the places I am used to in the Bronx or New York City. My friends…read morecomplained the entire time. Seating available at picnic tables outdoors. Restroom available on property. Kitchen is open air style. 2 stars because I got a tummy ache & everyone was mad I brought them here. Small parking lot, right before truck yard for parking.
