Service is super SLOW. We waited 1 hour to be served very simple menu items during a very slow day. Only 3 tables with people.

The service was extremely poor on a non-busy Tuesday evening. People who were seated after us got their food before us. Our appetizers came cold. We waited an hour and a half for simple rice and beans and couple tacos. The rice and beans with vegetables were very salty. The tacos were okay. Very disappointed.

All right burgers but better fish tacos. Service was a little slow but all in all a good place to have a meal with a family of all ages. Mind the chickens! 🐓

The service was subpar. The waitress placed the wrong order for one of our orders and when the meal finally came out already in a Togo box (assuming that member of our party didn’t want to eat it at the restaurantbecause everyone was done with their food. The manager then refused to comp the meal, instead they tried to charge us for an extra meal and only offered to take off 15%. After some back and forth they increased it to 25% off.

Great resturant with great prices. The food portions are very generous and the staff are very attentive.The grouper was absolutely amazing as was the shrimp. Fresh and well seasoned. The steak and plantain turnover, was one of the best I had on the island with unique flavors.They are open late. They accept phone payments. The bathroom was super clean.Will visit again the next time I am in the area.

We were trying to have some fun in Perguera and happened to stop in this place. Drinks were amazing. The fried food was not greasy- perfect. Seafood, Salad, Burgers, all good! Ivanna was the best bartender ever. I threw a drink at her that was not known to anyone in the whole Puerto Rico called Bee Knees (this is an old classic). Not only did she go out of her way to make it but it was amazing!!!. If you are ever in that area, visit this bar restaurant, ask for Ivanna and she will prepare anything you want - your way with a twist. I highly recommend the Bee Knees!!

Despite the fact that the rest of Puerto Rico had no power, the Isla Cueva had backup power and was a great place for dinner. Our hostess was awesome and explained the story of the "aliens" and the balloon & how it sucks up cows. It seems that the balloon is actually a radar that can detect flights that drop drugs from llanes in the tranquil waters of the south island. She was so awesome. We had great shrimp and chicken tacos + a great seafood sampler also. Great place.

We stopped here as part of a guided tour. It was a nice place for a quick bite and a beer. They had vegan tacos! We sat outside which was nice. Service was a little slow but friendly. Food was nothing special but it hit the spot. The place was decently clean (the bathrooms were so much better kept than the public ones in the area). The prices were good too!

Food was incredible. The black bean burger was so incredibly delicious! The servers were really friendly too. The only con was that it is busy, fills up quickly, and the waits can be long on weekends but worth it for the atmosphere, food, and music in the plaza right across the way.

Food tasted good, the sale was great, the rice with vegetables and the corn. The tacos didnt have the guacamole even though they should, and looked like I better had not order them, but okish.The mojitos were not good.Good for the food.

Fish tacos are exceptionally good. Cool little sidewalk café with green burgers too! Don’t forget to feed the chickens running about!

We had the daily specials. Three fish tacos, cob corn smothered in mayo, parmasean cheese and bacon crumbles, & margaritas. The tacos and corn were exceptional. The best I ever had. It will be difficult to order anything else on the menu because the food were so good. The drinks were good. I am a food person rather than drink, so you will have to decide that detail for yourself.

Bare with the wait my friends, like Jesus said “and this too shall pass”. After a long wait between order and food presented, my friends and I experienced some of the best burgers we’ve ever had. Matt “9/10.” Braden “9/10 the only flaw was the wait, but basically the best burger I’ve ever had.” Garrett “10/10 we should spend the night so we can eat here tomorrow.”

The worst! I called a several days in advance to make a reservation for my family of 10. I was told no problem. I arrived exactly on time and the first waitress told me she didn’t know what I was talking about. The second waitress admitted that she was the one who talked to me on the phone and took my reservation. But said she talked to the manager later who told her that they don’t take reservations. She never called me back to tell me that. After waiting we were able to put together a table for the 10 of us. We ordered the first time she came to the table, which was 30 minutes later. We ordered drinks and dinner all at once. Our reservation was for 6:30, at 8:30 we still had NO FOOD. we had asked several times. We watched all the tables around us, who had arrived after us get food. Finally after my children were near tears we went to the kitchen to try to get some food. Finally our burgers came out. Half of our food was cold, and had definitely been sitting in some corner of the kitchen. The onion ring order, of which there weee only 4 was clearly the outer ring of the onion that is not edible. We sent those back immediately. But of course they were still in the bill. We sent the fried sampler back bc it was also stone cold. All of these items were still on the bill when it came out. The waitress argued that we had ordered them so we had to pay for them. She told me it wasn’t her fault if the kitchen was slow. Apparently that was my job? Also worth nothing was that when we finally stood at the kitchen window we saw many many take out orders going out. They were clearly prioritizing to go orders over people actually at the restaurant. Save yourself an incredibly frustrating evening and go anywhere else. It was a total disaster and disappointment. Stay away.

My family and I had one of the worst dining experiences at this restaurant. We went to get food before a tour of la parguera, and when we sat down we had to wait almost thirty minutes before getting drinks (and we only got sodas/lemonadeeven though we were one of just a couple tables seated in the entire restaurant. Then, we had to wait over an hour to get our food even though we had ordered our entire food order at the same time as our drinks. All this after explaining to the servers, multiple times, that we had a tour to make at a certain time (we sat down with more than 90 minutes of leeway to be safe). Finally, once we did get our food, several of our orders were wrong or just plain missing. I would never go to this restaurant again and it made our entire evening a lot more stressful than it needed to be if the staff had just communicated with us better.

Save your self some money! .. we went there, paid over $300 with a super nice tip. Only to figure out that you have to go to the bar to get your own drinks and get attitude from the workers to get your water filled. We all ordered different plates and no one was able to eat. They are famous for their “amazing burgers” but, they were trash. The neighborhood cat enjoyed most of our food. THE FOOD TOOK OVER 2 HOURS TO BE SERVED and we were the only ones in the restaurant.We went to complaint and the lady that took the order got upset rolled her eyes and said figure it out. Thankfully the manager was súper profesional and saw everything that was going on and took over. Save your self a headache and go to any of the other restaurants around it

Great vegetarian dinner. We had the bean burger, vegetarian tacos and vegetarian nachos. Everything was delicious. We also ordered the parcha frappes to cool off. The service was good. One of us is allergic to seafoodand they reassured us that they take precautions to avoid cross-contamination. We were very pleased with our meal.

Waited over an hour for our food and the burgers were very dry. My daughters kids burger was the size of a chicken nugget. My husband asked for no tomato or lettuce and it came with all that and pickles. He couldnt eat it, pickles was not listed on the menu and he is allergic to pickles. Dont eat here, not worth the money. Very disappointed.

The food is good, definitely more pricey. They charged me 1 dollar for small condiment cup of ranch. The service however is horrible & the waitress’ are rude, and definitely not there wanting to do their jobs. You pay for your food as you order, I tipped, wish I hadn’t they sucked.

Food was excellent. Brush up on your espanol to read the menu but their salmon sandwich is definitely a good choice to consider. I also paired it with a Mambo beer, a lighter wheat beer. I only dropped 1 star because the wait for our food was a little long but the taste of food made up for that. Worth the wait. Also, its interesting to seeing roosters running around while you are eating.

Although I didn’t order any food I was just looking to pass the time until our tour started and decided to order some drinks at this bar. The staff was really friendly, very welcoming and available to assist. I ordered piña colada‘s and they were delicious. Then after those I ordered a Moscow Mule which is the biggest one I’ve ever seen plus a pomegranate Mojito which I never had in my life but it was excellent. although I wouldn’t know about the food but I will definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for a good piña colada around the area and pass the time.

Perfect place to sit outside and relax and watch life go by in La Parguera. We came here after visiting Mata la gata and the service was really friendly.The food was ok but the selection of beer is probably the greatest thing about this place. They even have beer on draft (multiple beers to choose from).

This place is great! Place is very cozy, low-key and inviting. At high traffic hours, service can be a little slower but compensated well by food and service quality. We were a large group and server was very attentive. Good beer selection and amazing cocktails (Mojito is a must try!Burgers are home made and well seasoned although at times overcooked but overall great meal. Good prices for a great meal. If you are in the area and must go to one place, this is the one

After a long ride to Palguera, I initially came to use to bathroom. The waitress was so friendly and the ambience of the restaurant was so welcoming, after our boat ride, I knew where I wanted to eat. We came during a 2 for 1 Angus burger special and we all loved it!!!!! I will definitely come back on our next trip!!!
