Metropol

Reviewed By Bulldog R - Orlando, Florida

I visit PR 4-5 times a year. I make it a point to visit the Metropol in Fajardo or San Juan depending where I am at. The service is very good and the food is incredible. I recommend the 14 oz or 8 oz Churrasco steak with sweet plantains and rice/black beans. Always a winner!

This place is a heaven in this area especially for Vegetarians. We tried Soya Tacos, Veg Fajita and Veg Chilaquiles(must try). Everything was fresh and tasted delicious. I would definitely recommend this place.

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.

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!

Reviewed By Fred S - Rowley

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
