9. Terraza Monte Mar

Terraza Monte Mar offers delicious food at reasonable prices--and the view is spectacular. This restaurant was recommended by the locals as their go-to place. They highly recommended chuleta can can (pork chop) but as a pescatarian I chose grouper in butter sauce. It was tender, tasty and fresh. The side of arroz mamposteao was the best I've ever had--moist and yummy. I washed it down with a passion fruit mojito and was a happy camper. My husband had the red snapper with yucca and plantain mofongo--no complaints! I highly recommend this place for typical Puerto Rican food. They also have affordable lunch specials.

We had lunch here after a long and VERY rainy hike in el Yunque at the end of August/beginning of September 2019. We had a big group of 14 and the restaurant was able to accommodate our party for lunch. Lots of good beer nad drinks, and the talking parrots!, but the highlight of the lunch was the Mfongo. It took time to prepare but it was worth it. Plantains, chicken or beef or shrimp, garlic sauce... delicious!!!! It was a delicious lunch with warm hospitality after a long morning of hiking in the rain!

We went to ritchies twice during our stay. The food was great and our waiter was very attentive. Try the mani nuggets, they are awesome.
6. Pasion by Chef Myrta

Reviewed By beachji
Pasion was recommended to us by a staff member at the resort we were staying in. Whenever abroad I always ask locals if they could eat anywhere, where would it be. Passion was the immediate answer from several employees. Located outside of Fajardo, Pasion is a very upscale restaurant that specializes in seafood dishes. Our party of four ordered a variety of entrees in order to try as many menu items as possible. The snapper was delicious and the fish presentation was a favorite! From the time we walked in the door the service was excellent and the food was spot on. I ordered a side of sweet potato fries and they were absolutely cooked to perfection and delicious. The restaurant is approximately a 35 minute drive from San Juan and is definitely worth the time.

Two couples, brought two bottles of wine with us, $13 corkage fee, wow 1. We had appetizer assortment which was good. However the grouper crusted in plantains was delicious, the guava sauce and garlic sauces on our groupers were amazing. The quality and quantity perfect. Service good as well. Small place but worth the wait.Thanks! We invite you to second floor!! Visit our Wine Cellar! Capacity for 80 more people’s!!! Thanks again
4. El Verde BBQ

Reviewed By mark_gosselin
It doesn't look like much, but the food was extremely satisfying and the price was incredible. We tried several things (1/2 chicken, pork sausage, pork thighs). Off all that we tried, the chicken was the winner. Pork was a little dry, sausage was a little flavorless. Rice and beans were great. Mofongo was great with the garlic sauce. ALl of this, with drinks (beer) for $40.

We had a fantastic lunch at this small, casual cafe after a hike in El Yunque on our first morning in Rio Grande. Waitress was super helpful, happy to answer questions and offer recommendations. Really good vegetarian options—the veggie quesadilla (with avocado and sweet plantain, “El Yunque style”) was amazing! Would definitely return if we stay in Rio Grande again.

A group of us have brunch at different places every Sunday. Why we couldn’t have found this gem sooner!!! Everything was wonderful!! Staff is very friendly and quick to put a table together for 10! Several ordered French Toast, chicken & waffles, omelets, and cappuccinos. My French Toast was phenomenal and so was my husband’s omelet! I don’t eat meat and didn’t try the chicken...but from the looks of their plates, I wouldn’t have got the chance! Ekelekua will definitely become a regular brunch stop!This makes our whole month! Thanks so much for sharing this; we look forward to serving you lot again soon =)
