I came all the way from Mayagüez to try this restaurant with a Gustazos coupon that included stuffed mofongos, sangria and dessert. The place is right at road number 2 in Hatillo in not a too attractive area. The dining room looks good. The restroom was clean. Service was OK.The mofongos were huge but the stuffing portion size: too small. It tasted good but too little churrasco in my wife's case, and too little the portion of squid on mine. The dessert was a coconut flan which was delicious and well presented. It was the highlight of our dining experience at this place. As to the sangria, since we don't drink alcohol, we skipped it but saw the glasses of other people and looked good and huge glasses. Overall, it was OK. If I'm in the Hatillo area I might stop to try other dishes. But I won't travel from Mayagüez just to eat here like I did today. I think that the stuffed mofongo is not their signature dish. Seems they are more into sushi which is not my thing. Anyways, it was nice trying the food here.

Brasas Restaurant

This restaurant is located in the 3rd floor of Punta Maracayo Resort

Very nice quaint dinner place. Romantic too. Try the Appetizer Mix, I'm not sure what they call it, but it has fish and bacalaitos and is really good. This is an expensive place so be prepared. Dissapointed they do not have a wine list in a restaurant such as this, therefore it's hard to know which wines they have and how much per bottle. Service is very good.

Went with the family and had a great time. Ordered the Orocoveña (chicken breast filled with Spanish sausage) and it was perfect. Waitress was very attentive and nice, plus the place is beautiful. Great spot to eat and have a good time in the North side of the island.

El Buen Cafe

Reviewed By Andres72423

This restaurant is conveniently right off the highway. As you come in you may think you are in a cafeteria but trust me the food is good. You have the option of dining from food they have already prepared for the day or you can order off their menu if you prefer to eat something different. Since we made it in after most of their daily options were finished we had to order from the menu. I had the biftec encebollado (steak & onions) with white rice and my girlfriend had the Mofongo with chicharrónes de pollo. We enjoyed our meal. The portions were plentiful and very flavorful. The staff was quick to take care of us and we were very pleased with our choice.

Mugs Restaurant

Reviewed By vztorres

I was traveling to Hatillo with my daugther and two grandchildren, we stop at the mall and decided to try Mugs. What a pleasant surprise, ordered the mofongo y carne frita, chicken pad thai and the oriental burger. The mofongo was made to order excellent, the pad thai was delicious and my daugther loved her oriental burger. The service was great and they were very patient with my two toddler grandchildren. Will visit again soon.

Restaurante El Mamposteao

Reviewed By amghco

We order the "Arroz Mamposteao", believing that we will have the best we ever try. The restaurant have it's name from it. However, it was almost fried. Disappointing.I order a stuffed chicken breast. Also, not really a great one, just good. My wife order "Churrasco" and although have a good taste, the meat was hard to chew.The night was saved by the "sangrias" and a great service. Really good.

Excellent place to enjoy a variety of dishes with fresh ingredients. Variety of wines and craf beers . A magical place where it will disconnect from the everyday world.

This place has been open for some time, actually I know the owner. When he opened I went and found it lacking. Recently had some friend recommend the place and went twice in the weekend. The place has done an outstanding turn around. Food quality is impressive, and prices are reasonable. Bartender has a PhD in mixology. We haven't tried dessert yet. I highly recommend this place. They have a spacial for the week-end as well as regular menu.

I've been here before several occasions. Really good service and best of all the employees always courteous, friendly and a smile. Food delicious, trifongo and churrasco w/ salsa seta A+. But my last visit was just a bad experience. Always a first. 1. They forgot our order of appetizer, which I had to remind the employee twice, and received it during half way in our dinner. 2. My 7 year old daughter very hungry, got her dish also at our half way dinner. 3. My mash potatoes was cold, hard, not tasty, and parmessan cheese on top yuk! Our full size ribs very burnt on the sides. My overall experience: horrible. :-(. Sorry Truco, management time to audit.
