Restaurant El Popular in San Juan

Very. Very good prices and very nice attention

My favorite..

Excellent food.

Best service I ever had!!!

Great food and good location

The restaurant was within walking distance of the AirBnB which made it great. The food was amazing and drinks 🍸 was amazing. I recommend this restaurant if you are looking for some local food.

Amazing food it was a pleasure to eat the fish fillet And chicken covered in a egg omelet.

The best Mofongo in Puerto Rico, and not as expensive as in some other San Juan restaurants. I had the mofongo mariscos-- mashed plantains with seafood when I first arrived in PR. Then went back to this restaurant for another mofongo Marisol before I lefy.

Friendly staff, good vibes

Food was good, service was OK.

Friendly staff, reasonably price and good food. Roberto was very attentive and helpful.

Old fashion type of restaurant, nothing fancy, but great taste

The mofongo was horrible. Service was even worse.

Less than average..living off of old reputation..took over hour 4 two entrees..in a empty place..

Great authentic Puerto Rican food at great price and service.

Food not good. No flavor

Great true "Local" Restaurant. Great food & service at reasonable prices.

Such nice staff,good.food&great drinks.

Delicious food/drinks&the bartender was sooo nice. Gracias. Def will be back.

The food I order took extremely long before I received it and the pork was over friend and under cooked. Thumbs down for me.

Food was so delicious and the prices were less than anywhere else.. will definitely come back next time..

Terrible service, ordered two drinks and a meal and the server forgot about the drinks and I had to get up and remind him. Then the food took almost an hour wait. It was not worth the wait.

Disappointed. I visited this Iconic restaurant last Saturday, but this time the food were tasteless. It was the first time that the food not accomplish my expectations.

Awesome food in Puerto Rico

Local food always yummy, good size portions and fare prices. Staff is super friendly

Very salty food, spend $130 but had bad taste. Good mushroom but bad local food1 star for the singer.

Puertorrican food is excellent. Service is good

The best fish paella I had in years. The mojitos are fabulous also. Loved the service and the live music.

I will visit again. #RasBookie #1xforthe1x

This place had cool people and staff but the food and drinks were not great.i had chicken and rice. The chicken was over cooked, the rice was dry and the mofongo was salty. We had sangria drinks and didnt even taste the alcohol. Really tasted like juice.... But the place was right where the stage was, so we could dance and here the music.

I love this place, I got the chicken, gravy with rice and garbanzo beans. It is wonderful! I can not tell you how wonderful the flavor was. My husband got the empanada with Sause and cheese, his was good to!

Best food and service I recieved in la placita.a

Really nice service, feels very welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere is nice and its open during the day for a nice fried lunch. Fast and comfortable.

Delicious & great service

The avocado and churrasco.

Amazing food with great service. I had the stuffed Avacado and it was great!

Good Food Excellent Service

The owner said they make the best beans in the world, and she delivered! The fried pork and mofongo are delicious too.

The ambiance itself makes you love this place. The people are warm and welcoming and the food is pretty good too. It has that “cheers” kind of feel to it.

Great vegan restaurant. With fresh made veggies and a la carte.

Good food and service nice place to hangout.

Had dinner here on a Friday night, the food was amazing, it tasted super authentic. Also great vibes & drinks.

Amazing place! Authentic food!

Great food. Great price.

Service was slow, and the food we ordered was poor. I would give it lower, but looking at the food others ordered we could have ordered better.

Stopped here for lunch on a Thursday with my wife. This was to me the only restaurant that had some time on it. It had no windows or AC. But it did have fans at least. The age shows on the decor but thats okay your here to eat rite? Placed in the center of la placita in the corner youll fine this Neon green restaurant with probably the best food in la placita. My wife had the sopa de res (beef stew soup), while I had the pastelon de Yuca con pavo (baked cassava with turkey). Both dishes came with white rice and were amazing with some cold beer. The food was like some good old home cooked food. Not over exaggerated with salt or spices like the competitors next door. Everyone here was super nice as well. Out of all the places we ate at over 6 days staying in San Juan this was the best place thus far.

Amazing Puerto Rican food. Great atmosphere, warmth, and hospitality. Lots of history in the art, pictures, and artifacts throughout the restaurant.

Amazing food. Thank you!

Inexpensive beer, tasty and simple food with friendly staff.

This place is awesome. By far the best beans we had in San Juan. Great local atmosphere and an extremely nice staff!!
