In Puerto Rico for my friend’s 30th birthday celebration and this was the perfect place to eat after a long day of traveling. Drinks were good, food was tasty and prepared with care, and dessert was phenomenal (order the fried cheesecake). Our server, Sebastian, was welcoming and attentive. Definitely recommend.
Wow…this was a DELICIOUS surprise! The food is flavorful and the portions are generous! The Aguacate Guira which so good. The steak was cooked perfectly, the shrimp was tender and well seasoned (but was almost too salty) but with the buttery avocado it was a perfect bite. The Ribeye was huge, well seasoned, cooked perfectly and the rice & beans were out of this world. Honestly, one of the best meals on the island so far. The servers were friendly and seem to love their job, Sebastian was our server and he was great! The coco mojito Sebastian made was beautiful, refreshing, and the perfect balance of sweetness and coconut. Will definitely come back!

Tasty food. Cocktails need help. Super high prices! OUCH! How can people in Arecibo afford to eat here? Wish the prices were a bit more modest. I had a $30 dish that was worth $18 at most. With that said, excellent/friendly service. I recommend for sharing appetizers w friends - GET THE EMPANADAS!!!

Authentic puertorrican food. This is the clasic downtown Cafeteria but raised to a restaurant level. Here you will get the delicious authentic food, like the Bistec Encebollado con Arroz y Habichuelas and some Tostones de Pana as a side. The excellent Pollo al Ajillo con Mofongo. The service was excellent and the place is very crean an beatiful. A great experience for a great lunch.

On our girls trip of the Island we stopped in for a bite. This was the best stop on the entire trip. Our server Carlos was attentive , charismatic and charming. The food and it's presentation was out of this world. I recommend stopping here no matter where you are in Puerto Rico.

Would love to give the food a great rating as my expectations were high after searching for a go-to mofongo place in Arecibo, having had an amazing mofongo in San Juan. Unfortunately, the oil used to fry the plantain must have been old as the smell was pungent, and extremely salty overall (had it with onion steak), which made my stomach hurt almost immediately.
For tougher stomachs and those who favor a heavy hand with salt, this is alright.
Drinks were light, service was ok, he was serving the whole floor so we were not on his radar until we got up to pay. He did try to rectify the situation with the dish, but it was closing time.

Churrasco Con Mofongo
Very authentic Puerto Rican food, could be a little hard to find located on side road with limited parking. Inside completely new. Jennifer took our order 7 people without writing it down and then repeated it back to us perfectly. The food was great, service great. Will be back
