This was the only resturant that had a line to get in. It wasn't for the food. The place is very much like a chain resturant. The room and the waite staff were all dressed to look like Disney run operation. The Chairs were so hard that you are glad the service is fast so you can get up and... more

A Perfect tourist trap!! Service resembles a fast food chain in order to have a quick table turnover. Locals won't come near this place. more

Like some of the other reviews, this place is slightly geared for the tourists. The decor and the outfits of the staff. However I did enjoy it, the food was nice. It is slightly pricey but you get what you pay for. The atmosphere is great, one lunch time whilst we were there they broke out into a song and... more

Food was average at best. The house specialty as described by the waitress -- mofongo with skirt steak -- was pricey, and the steak did not taste fresh. Service was friendly and quick enough. Restroom dirty. This is an expensive lunch choice. It's OK for rice and beans, but with so many other choices in San Juan, there is no... more

My husband and I ate here for lunch, and split a beef stew lunch special, a side of beans and rice, and a side of tostones, and it was one of the tastier meals we got in PR. Granted, it was ridiculously touristy, with the Cuban costumes and the proximity to the cruise ships, but the food was really good... more

It was funny as we were waiting to be seated everyone that had finished their meal came out smiling and gushing how great the food was. I had kan kan which was good and my hubby had mofongo. They were both good but not the best I've had in SJ. The sangria was a bit week, but the mojito was... more

We were told of this place, first by the taxi driver and then at the Sheraton desk where we were looking for "authentic" Puerto Rican food. We were not disappointed at all. The atmosphere is very tight, although if you are claustrophobic, you might find it too close to others but we thought it added to the charm. We ordered... more

We were on vacation in old san juan and after being on a budget eating burger king my husband and I along with our 2 kids decided to eat some PR food. We stumbled upon this place and decided to try. The menu was not outside otherwise we wouldnt have ate there. They were pretty expensive. We paid 60.00 for... more
