    Pulled pork stuffed fried green plantains
    Monique M.

    My friend and i decided to check this place out because of the 32oz cocktails but what we weren't expecting was incredible food. We were the first and only ones at noon after a morning on the beach on a beautiful Friday. Our waitress was sweet and funny and everything came out quickly. I enjoyed my coconut mojito, super refreshing, not too sweet. My friend wasn't crazy about her passionfruit mojito so she ordered el cocotazo coctel and continued to order two more because she was in love. Now to the surprise guest: the food. We honestly only ordered because we were drinking an exorbitant amount of alcohol and needed carbs but boy were we glad we did. The stuffed green plantain was crispy but still soft on the inside, the pork inside was delicious. The fried cheese with guava sauce was interesting, almost reminded me of tofu but we could not stop eating it. The crab wontons were the star of the show in my opinion. Fried pockets were jam packed with a crab salad, topped with creamy guac and sweet eel sauce and I could probably eat 20 in one sitting. I also ordered a mofongo with shrimp in garlic sauce, the texture of the mofongo was soft and creamy unlike most places ive had, which I loved, but the garlic sauce was wayy too salty. That's where they lost a star, but I would definitely make sure to make a stop here the next time im in Puerto Rico

    This place is a vibe! They have board games available to keep you company. They also have a slew of drink options as well! I came for my bachelorette trip, so we tried a few appetizers. Everything was delicious and the service aaa great!

    Do not skip this place! Service was amazing. The staff was super friendly and checked on us multiple times. Good vibes!!! The food was AMAZING. I got the red snapper with seafood paella. 10/10 We didn't try any drinks but they have such a huge menu of local juices and you can make them into any drink! Best flan!!!

    Don't come here if you're not ready for a big *** drink. No skimp, no short cuts, it has real fruit and hits where it needs to 32oz of solid drink, you only need one. I drank two at once, but that's how I live my life, mind your business. I always go with acerola mojito, but by now I've had almost everything, fresa (strawberry) & limon (lime) being my next favorite mojitos of all the flavors. By the time you have the 1st one, the 2nd one will be your favorite. Don't sleep, because this is a real Peruvian restaurant. The arroz chaufa, the fish dishes are incredible. I think the seafood chaufa (unfortunately not pictured) was easily my favorite being super fresh and stuffed with shrimp. Favorite thing pictured was the mamposteao and churrasco. I didn't have it on my plate, but I ended up forcing a shared situation for anlot of the meal. I don't miss Zajori when I'm here, you shouldn't either!

    First time at Zajori and I'm already obsessed. The vibe is super chill and welcoming, and the food? Incredible! I ordered the mamposteao with flank steak and it was better than I could imagine. The rice and beans are mixed with sweet plantains and a punch of flavor that tastes out of this world. That flank steak? So juicy and tender! Their mojitos were delicious with so many flavors to choose from. Service was fast, friendly, and felt like I was visiting family. Zajori is definitely going on my regular rotation. If you haven't tried it yet, do yourself a favor and go hungry.

    Drinks!

    I wasn't the biggest fan of this place. Maybe because I've had better seafood in the area leading up to it. The people were nice but the food and drinks came short. The fish lacked seasoning, the ceviche lacked acid, the drinks were way too sugary. I feel like the presentation of their food and drinks were there but the flavor fell short.

    Drinks, pick your flavor!

    Sorry no pic of the food...it tasted too good, was gone before I realized it! The eel sauce was amazing. The crab wonton was amazing! Five out of five

    Parcha (passionfruit) Lemonade
    Lauren R.

    I really had high hopes for this place... Unfortunately, it was underwhelming. There were only two patrons in the whole restaurant when we walked in and when we walked out we were the last two. The food was not great. We ordered: pollo salteado, truffle fries and a salad, a passionfruit lemonade and virgin berry piña colada. Main dish barely had any chicken and did not have the typical Peruvian salteado sauce flavor. The salad had a lot of browned lettuce. The truffle fries were small fried potato cubes, but the flavor was good. I'd say come here for big delicious drinks, but skip the food. The best part was the server. She was really attentive and kind.

    If you are Peruvian or want Peruvian food please don't order it, I ordered the Ceviche (70/100), Papa a la Huancaina (0/100) and the Chaufa (70/100) and I Peruvian do not approve. The drinks were good. Service was good.

    Keysi J.

    This Asian fusion was WOOOOW! The causa was on point and I forgot what our plate was called, but please refer to picture and order it!!! so flavorful and sooooo good!!!!! This is a must have local spot for late night dinner

    32 oz virgin Piña colada

    HUGE drink please don't do what I did and buy one for just yourself, I severely underestimated 32oz of pina colada. Delicious! Didn't expect it to be so good, one of the better ones I've had in San Juan. The gummies and everything on top were ehh.

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.

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.

The inside looks like a cafeteria but it stays busy. We were seated quickly although it seemed packed. They have a good amount of menu options and cross out what isn't available. They also have drink options that our server listed to us. To start, we ordered the lobster empanadas and sangria. The empanadas were delicious! Very tasty and fresh. The sangria however, was not great. It just tasted like juices that don't really work together. I couldn't taste the wine. We ordered the roasted pork and skirt steak. The steak was really tasty, and juicy. But the roasted pork was very dried and hard. It had some good bits in it but there were quite a few pieces that were too cooked to eat. The rice and beans were cooked very well. This is the perfect place for quick local food where you won't spend too much. But if you want a very high quality, I would choose elsewhere.

My son had the churrasco (skirt steak) and it was excellent. We ordered sides of amarillos (sweet plantains) and they were the best ones we had the trip -- soft, juicy, with caramelized exterior. We wanted tres leches for dessert, but it sold was sold out. If you only had one "typical" PR dinner, I would suggest Bebo's.

I finally had the chance to try escargot for the first time--and now I feel completely spoiled for life. If that was my introduction, the bar has officially been set sky high.
