Let it be known that Puerto Rico is one of my favorite vacation destinations in the world. It feels comforting in the fact that has similarities to the United States mainland, but it also sustains a unique culture that is vividly portrayed in all aspects of the natives' lives. They take pride in their roots, and I respect that. The... more

We got a lot of food for what we paid, and all of it was good. The service was slightly below average, but not terrible. Our waiter seemed annoyed with us the whole evening, but we couldn't figure out why. The atmosphere is sort of average, nothing fancy. It's not the place to go for a romantic dinner, but it's... more

I have been going here for 10 years and the food is consistently good. I think it's traditional Cuban/Puerto Rican, and attracts both locals and tourists. The churrasco is dynamite... my boyfriend became a congri lover because of Metropol, the pina coladas are traditional and delicious. Whenever I stay in San Juan, I come here at least twice. Would recommend... more

The restaurant was conveniently located near the hotel me and my boyfriend were staying and since I’ve read a lot of reviews about it we decided to go. The service was really good; we didn’t have to wait to be seated although the place was packed. The food was really good! I got the fiesta cubana (not sure this is... more

A Puerto Rican colleague recommended this restaurant and it was great. I tried the seafood mofongo, which was absolutely loaded with all manner of seafood (fish, shrimp, crab, squid, etc.) and incredibly tasty. The portion was huge and I could only eat about half. This was partly to save room for the flan for dessert, which is homemade. It was... more

I absolutely loved Metropol. My friends and I ate dinner there almost every night of our stay in Puerto Rico. Service was good for the most part - we did have 1 inattentive waiter one night, but other than that, the waiters were very attentive and checked on us regularly and food and drinks were delivered quickly. We loved the... more

I have dined at the Metropol in Isla Verde at least fifteen times, so I think I'm rather well acquainted with it. Contrary to service being slow, it is extraordinarily fast; in fact, those who like to linger over their dining experience would probably feel as though they're being rushed! The restaurant is bright and airy, with large windows toward... more

This place came highly recommended by our hotel staff. the decor has much to be desired and we sat on dirty chairs. On arrival we waited over 20 minutes to be acknowledged by a waiter. We complained to the hostess who did nothing about our wait. Once served our food and utensils were thrown on the table The waiter never... more

in my opinion, the metropol located at the roosevelt ave is much better. when you get to the parking lot the guy there will open the door for you and recommends to leave your car key with him in case he needs to move your car. inside, its nice and with comfortable lighting which is not too dark nor too... more
