Title says it all. Best local cuisine. Wine is 4$ per glass. All very fair. Great service. Happy people. My 3rd time to PR; 1st time to Cafe Puerto Rico and I'll come back every visit. more

It has all the tell-tale signs that this place shouldn't be as awesome as it actually is - the words "Puerto Rico" in its' name and a prominent spot on a heavily-trafficked public square smack dab in the middle of Old San Juan. But it's amazing. The important things were all in place, though - a small, simple, very regional... more

When the cab let us off in Old San Juan, we headed for the nearby fort, then after the Cristobal fort, then we headed back over for lunch and drinks. WOW! Value - $8.00 gets a huge plate of food. Husband had tender, tender, cut... more

I travel to Puerto Rico every 6-8 weeks and this is the first restaurant that I go to eat. The food and service is among the best that I have eaten all over the world. The best Mofungo you will ever eat. This is my favorite restaurant, and I highly suggest everyone try it. more

The best chicken soup, I've... more

This place looks like your average restaurant. The food was really good. The Mofongo with crab meat is a great dish. It is very authentic Puerto Rican food. more
