“Fabulous Restaurant”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 12, 2012

This little restaurant is right on the water in the marina, Marina Puerto Chico in Fajardo. It's a little hard to find but don't give up. Call them and they will give you directions and believe me it is worth it! The ambiance, the view ,the service and especially the food is amazing! We had a family dinner there with about 12 people and everything about the experience was perfect! We felt right at home here and everyone was so accommodating to us, made us feel like they enjoyed it as much as we did. Don't miss this local Puerto Rican gem.

“PERFECTION!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 10, 2012

We visited this quaint little restaurant as recommended by a local and at first glance it was unusual (you must enter a secure gate at the marina) and there was seating for about 40-50 at the most but TRUST ME the food service and ambiance was five-star all the way!!!! We had a couple of drinks, fried plantain chips and mofongo con pollo and churrasco and it was amazing! Great portion sizes, amazing flavor in the entire dish... Great place to relax and sit by the marina... this place is a true hidden gem and was the best meal we had on the island that week by far!!!!!

“Awesome Little Place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 4, 2012 via mobile

If you are staying in northeast Puerto Rico, this place is a must. Reasonable prices, very good food, and a laid back atmosphere. Also, make sure to go to reggae night on Saturdays.

“Ceviche is fantastic”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 22, 2012

While staying at El Conquistador we visited this restaurant twice for lunch and once for dinner. Friendly, open air right at the marina. Grilled tuna steak, ceviche and mohitos were great!
