I hear on a daily basis, tourists requesting the best local food they can have in the Island. Now, you have to understand this is not a 5 star restaurant. This is as local as it gets. The "stray dogs" people keep mentioning on other reviews have always lived there and don't be fool by their sad faces as they... More

WOW! As the saying goes, "The fish is so fresh, it was swimming this morning". They must have come up with that one after eating in this place! The seafood was so amazingly fresh!!! We asked a local for a good place to eat and this was the place they recommended. The location is not that scenic, but if you're... More

This restaurant is about one thing: The Freshest Fish You Will Ever Eat. So don't order a hamburger, don't be tempted by the $3 tacos (hint: they aren' tacos, they are the fried meat bread sticks that are served all over PR), just ask what the catch of the day is, and they'll bring out a basket of fish so...

This is our favorite seafood restaurants in Fajardo. My family and I went there and the food, atmosphere and service was excellent. All food is fresh. We liked the arepas filled with mix seafood (shrimps, octopus, carruchos). I would definitively recommend Pez Carpacho in butter sauce to anyone looking for great seafood in the east area with a Spanish taste.... More

We had gone out fishing earlier in the morning on a private charter in Fajardo and caught a few fish. Our Captain recommended Bohio because the owner/cook is actually a fisherman himself so all of his seafood is fresh. So we though why not, we'll give it a shot. It took us nearly half an hour to find it! When... More

Luckily i did not read this reviews before. We went to get fresh lobster and so we did. We had 2 of them grilled perfectly and enjoyed them thoroughly. The arepas were great, so was the conch in vinaigrette, although the portion was a bit small. My daughter and I had red snapper with mofongo, also very good... The service... More

I dont like giving bad reviews but since I depend on reviews before choosing a place to eat, it's only fair if I let others know too about my experiences. This place wasn't the worst I've been to but it certainly wasn't worth the money spent. It's true, they have dogs roaming around begging. My daughter was so sweet and... More

There were four of us who ate here before the BioBay tour. We ordered two cheeseburgers which they advertise as homemade, fish tacos, and the garlic shrimp. The burgers were absolutely disgusting. They were hard and hockey pucks and dry. This was the worst cheeseburger I have ever had. The fries were overcooked. The garlic shrimp were ok. The fish... More

Our experience was different than the other reviews. We ate here at the recommendation of the captain of the BioIsland motorboat tour. I have to say I was thinking it was a big mistake as we walked from the marina to the restaurant. The area is a bit run down with lots of stray dogs. Seating is outside only and... More
