We were here tonight for dinner and were very excited to try it. This was a big mistake. We came here last night and the hostess told us there was a fifty minute wait and when we asked to sit at the bar they told us we needed to leave. We were so excited to eat here we came back... More

We love this place! The food, especially anything that is cooked in the back of their pickup truck grill, has always been outstanding. My husband always has the ribs, which have been falling off the bone tender. I go with whatever the seafood special is and have never been disappointed. The chef is creative with seafood and tropical fruit combinations... More

One of the few places I found to get really good vegetarian food. Fabulous mofongo, very interesting and tasty green papaya and cashew salad, and some super yummy arugula. The waitress was wonderful. Watch out for the anti-mosquito coils burning under the table, though--the acrid stench competed with the food. And this place ain't cheap.

We were recommended this restaurant by the wait staff at El Con and after reading the reviews on here we thought we couldn't go wrong. My husband really enjoyed his steak, however I was not impressed with my BBQ ribs. They lacked BBQ and were extremely tough. For a restaurant famed for its BBQ I thought they would be tender... More

The service was friendly. Relaxing ambience. But when we ordered 2 salads, a pincho, a few beers and one sangria...and the total was $75. We about fell over. Delicious, light food. but WAY TOO PRICEY. Will not visit again.

We were referred to La Estacion when we checked into La Casitas late one night.... Outdoor atmosphere was great, mojitos wonderful - and I especially loved the chorizo appetizer paired with them. While the overall meal was pricy, the service was attentive - a very pleasant evening...

While staying at the Hotel El Conquistador, my wife, daugter, grandson and I dined at La Estacion on Sat 5/12 and on Mon 5/14 and was pleasently suprised during both my visits. Located on a property that was once a gas station, although you would never know, the restaurant is full of atmosphere with outdoor tables shaded by umbrellas (rained... More

The food is really good, and the prices are reasonable. Most of the dinners are so big, you could easily share between two people, or plan on taking a lot home. The potato salad and the green papaya salad are both good.

SOooooooo good. Worth a visit if you are nearby. Such a charming outdoor area to eat at at night. I'd highly recommend the BBQ pork ribs!!
