This place was the best. The food the service, people, atmosphere. I could not find anything wrong with this place. We only scratched the surface as far as the food was concerned delicious. Every piece of food we had we could not find anything wrong with it. Definitely will be going again. PS the band and DJ I was home with my uncles playing music awesome.
Great fiendly ambiance. They had live music the day of our visit. We had Chicken Mofongo and Pernil Mofongo. Portions were enormous and flavorful.
This place is AMAZING. It’s surprisingly in the middle of all this hard core gentrified part of town. I say surprisingly because it’s *hella* puerto rican in the best possible way. As soon as you walk in the pr flag is everywhere ?? ?. I went on a Sunday night and it was pretty empty and honestly, this place needs to be packed.First of all, the service their is great. I was served by this older lady who might as well been my tia. Super warming and lovely, but also ready to tell you the chisme type of lady. I ordered a mezcal margarita, and it was solid and fresh. We ordered guac with plantain chips and look at the size of those! I will say, in my opinion, the guac needed more salt but I’m a pretty salty person.I ordered the mofongo de camaron, and I fell in love. I think it had a salty mushroom gravy in it. It was ? ? ?. It also came with the pr flag on their, OF COURSE. Please try this place, it is delicious ?
Am I Puerto Rican women having this restaurant in the area makes me feel like I just took a trip to San Juan with the authenticity. I’m so happy I found this place. Best Puerto Rican food in the area hands down !!! Better yet best Spanish food in the area.
I had been to this restaurant for the first time last year and the food was great and the ambiance too. Returned 2 weeks ago to have dinner with my family and unfortunately there was a roach crawling on the cushion of the booth we were seated. Told the waitress and she tried to go along with presenting us the dinner menu as if it was no big deal. I sent a private message on the restaurant's instagram page about the situation and no response. They showed absolutely no concern for what we experienced as diners at THEIR restaurant. Crossing this place off my list for good!
My party came early ... everything was well made. Attention is ++. Everything clean.Will return to see consistency. They have a second small dining section- ... bit pricey but portions are large.
Both the trifongo and the crispy snapper fish with coconut pineapple rice are delicious! Be careful they automatically put 20% tip on your bill.
FOOD was great. Big portions. Good Music. However no HEAT. If you sit downstairs or upstairs you have to wear your coat. Also they added there own gratuity. So I rate this place a 3 solely based on NO HEAT. Might as well ate outside.
Guarapo's is an amazing place, the atmosphere, the music, the drinks, the food, desserts, the staff and bartenders were and always are so attentive, friendly and so professional!!! My girlfriends and I were there last night...had an wonderful time!! We will be back soon ??
I came here like two weeks ago for brunch. The food & hookah was great. As for the drinks? They were trash!!! They even Served more oj than champagne. I also order a picadera to go today. And honestly the price doesn’t match the portion of food that was given. Very disappointing! Norwinds for sure next time!
