Fantastic experience. The customer service was as amazing as the food! Everyone was SO friendly. The food was top notch. Great flavors and nice big servings. We couldn’t even eat it all. Delicious. Highly recommend for some authentic Puerto Rican food in San Juan.

I would highly recommend this restaurant. The food and service were both excellent. The view from the outside was deceiving. The ceviche was fresh and delicious as were the shrimp tacos and the stuffed avocado with spicy crab and beef. Dessert was flan which was also very good.
