very fresh variety of veggies in my beef stir fry. It was wonderful. A little heavy on the sodium ...hence the four stars. You know had to put on the bikini in the morning after all. Service was superb.

El Jefe Burger Shack

Reviewed By cammiedog - Cleves, Ohio

Decided to try this place as we had missed it on our last trip. We started with fish bites, which were really good! I ordered the 1/3 burger with Egg and Cheddar. My husband ordered the Firecracker, which is a burger stuffed with Jalapenos. Our burgers got mixed up but they were both delicious......Worth it to try it again.

La Parrilla

Reviewed By Jasmin B - Dorado, Puerto Rico

Oh my God, the lobster we ordered was AMAZING. We decided on the langosta a la parilla relleno de mariscos (grilled lobster filled with seafood), and we enjoyed every bite. My husband ordered the seafood paella and liked it, as well. My Mojito de Parcha (Passionfruit Mojito) was also delicious, and my son loved the chocolate cake he ordered for dessert. Excellent service, fantastic seafood (so fresh!) and stunning ocean views (make sure to try and get a table on their upper level) in a very nice ambience. Highly recommended...we will be back!

The Brass Cactus

Reviewed By KCBBQnJazz - Kansas City, Missouri

We visited The Brass Cactus today for lunch and it was pretty good! The service was excellent - our wait person was very friendly. Today's special is BBQ ribs so we ordered those as well as a couple of burgers & nachos w/pulled pork. We enjoyed everything but the standouts were the nachos & onion rings. Our burgers were slightly overcooked & could've used a good sprinkle of seasoning. The ribs - well, they were o.k. but being from the BBQ Capital (K.C. baby - LOL!) we're a pretty tough crowd when it comes to 'que. :)
We also had a couple of Don Q's w/pineapple juice & they were nice!
I would recommend Brass Cactus! Stop by for a drink and/or a meal!

Pasta y Pueblo

Reviewed By Don W - High Point, North Carolina

First time to p&p since the hurricane.the new location, very close to the old one, is great, second floor with ocean view. The food is same as before, which is wonderful. Carbonara pasta topped with a huge perfectly cooked pork chop was my choice, and a very wise choice it was. One of the best tasting and tender chops I have ever eaten. My companions chose the coconut shrimp and mussels. Both were equally pleased with their meal. We have eaten many places in Luquillo,some of which sadly have not returned after the storm, but p&p remains our favorite and well deserving of it’s great TA rating. We are here several weeks and most assuredly will return again.

Pasion by Chef Myrta

Reviewed By Ivan B - Panama City Beach, Florida

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.

Erik's Gyros & International Deli

Great Greek Breakfast deal + cubanos+gyros+pasta+paellas

Reviewed By Marsha W - Luquillo, Puerto Rico

Have been meaning to go for a while so when I got up early on Mother's Day with a yen for Eggs Benedict I headed for Erik's. It was still early and not too crowded...........I had my pick of any table. Service was fast and friendly................got my Eggs Benedict and a complimentay Mimosa and I was a happy camper. It was a family day, of course but the little kids were well behaved. What struck me most was EVERYONE was on their smartphones and not for apictures................very little interaction...............how sad.

Located right in front of the beach!

Still recovering from Maria
Very limited food and drink menu, only sandwiches
Had the Poke Bowl while my wife had a burger
Other restaurants in the same general area seem to have recovered quicker
Will try again in a month and see if things have improved
