We had Garlic shrimps that were really good with an excellent mofongo. Scampi shrimps with tostones and even though the plantains were a little bit yellow the shrimps were amazing. The asopao was very good but the amount of the appetizers were not the same as described. Didn't liked the drinks but the food is worth it!! Very good taste and quality!!

Gustitos Criollos

Reviewed By Shutter_Bug - Texas

My group stopped here by accident on the way to Arecibo Observatory from San Juan. Someone in the group needed the restroom so we stopped at Burger King. Then the group wanted lunch but not at Burger King. I found Gustitos Criollos using Yelp and TripAdvisor and did not regret it at all.
The restaurant is sizable but the parking lot is very small. It resembles a cafeteria, where you pick your food from a lunch counter and take it to tables. The quality, however, was fantastic. The prices were also very good. Everyone in my group thoroughly enjoyed their food, which is a huge accomplishment. I would definitely visit here again.

Reviewed By Alfredo G

We were there last Saturday 4/15
The place was at about 50 % occupancy
Our server, I will call her Houdini, have the ability to disappear when we need her. Her other co workers help us in a great manner. Since we need to remember the bread, ask for lemon and additional empty plate. Some of the food we did order: croquetas, congri, chinese fried rice, ropa vieja we did also order a tamal and she forget it (or some one did)
The captain and manager were very friendly and ask about the food so about the food we can't complaint
They need to check for Mrs. Houdini !

IHOP

Since 1958, IHOP(R) has been the place where people connect over breakfast, enjoy study breaks, grab a bite before or after sporting events, and so much more. And no matter what menu items they order, there's one ingredient that's always constant - a smile. We've seen millions of smiles over the years in our restaurants, and now shared in photos across our social properties. In fact, smiles are so much a part of our culture that we changed our logo to include one. This is just one of the many fun and exciting changes you can expect from IHOP(R). Because we know the shortest distance between two people is a smile.

Service is slow, you can see several hosts (depending on hours), talking and talking while you get thirsty. For some reason they have a bad smell since the opening some years ago. Food as always is good, same thing here as US rest. Don't expect anything different.

Fu Hou Sushi Bar & Restaurant

Reviewed By Ruben S

Fu Hou offers a consistent great experience. Food quality and taste are outstanding. Prices are fair considering the overall value and customer experience. Restaurant decoration is well balance, feel cozy with a touch of exotic. Service is good and waiters are very amiable. I appreciate my drinks are always nicely cold to enjoy. Good for family and couples.
They have a meeting room upstairs big enough for 30 people but thinks they charge for it. I consider the room can be free in exchange for the meals expense.
A great choice to go with no stress or hurries. You will enjoy the food, drinks, environment, and the overall experience.

La Llave del Mar Restaurant

Reviewed By Michele S - Lake Worth

I ordered the fish. It was mediocre, took forever and it when it came the cole slaw salad was moldy and the tomatoes were old. 15 minutes later my husband's lobster soup came out and he liked it just fine. I would suggest the restaurant across the street instead. It's actually on the water.

Salt and Pepper

Reviewed By Mike46077 - Zionsville, Indiana

We just happened to be passing through Manati' on our way back from Arecibo to San Juan when we badly needed a nice meal. We thought there would be no chance of finding something good in this "in between" place, but we took a chance. While there were some threats of a mutiny when we tried to find this place, once we arrived and were greeted warmly by the owner we knew we had found a true treasure in Manati'. The restaurant is family owned and operated and the food is top notch. The chef didn't stick to the menu when we told him about our daughter's request, instead he put together exactly what she wanted. We had a really tasty (and huge portion) of Meat Paella and some tropical shrimp and an order of pasta for my son. Well executed and handled with care. It was also great to talk to the owner. Definitely recommend for lunch or dinner if you are passing through (or staying in) Manati'.

Pura Pesca

Reviewed By RKPhoto - Atlanta, GA

I visited Pura Pesca around lunchtime on a Wednesday and it was jumpin'! We ordered a bit of everything and it was all good. The whole red snapper was a highlight. It's a great spot right on the beach and the beer is nice and cold.
