Gabriela was the person who attended our table, and she provided excellent service. The entire experience was amazing the food was absolutely delicious, and the view was both relaxing and breathtakingly beautiful. To make it even more special, we had an esperanza visit our table, which was just magical. From the outstanding service to the excellent food and serene atmosphere, everything exceeded our expectations. Everything about this place just was perfection. The staff was very organized and knew exactly what to do and where to go. The service was excellent. The fooooodddddd. Omgggg. The best pork I’ve had so far living on the island. It gets packed so make sure you have a little patience waiting for a table or your food but trust me. It’s worth it. The food is good but nothing to go crazy about. Their signature dish is the pastel al caldero, which is good and best part is, one can order it at the bar. The atmosphere and the views is what one comes here for. The place is a great party with really well made drinks and very cold beer. The staff are very nice and attentive and definitely make this place what it is. The views of the mountains are out of this world. Prepare to wait a long time for a table, if you want one, however one can go here without getting a table, it is perfect for chinchorreo.

We came here with friends while we were in town for Bad Bunny’s residency. On a Saturday around 1pm we had a 40 minute wait for a table. Our friends recommended the soup and the mojito de parcha from the bar. Enjoying those items helped the time go by fast. I also tried a can of the Santurce Brewing D29 Passion Fruit beer. It was refreshing and just what I needed on a warm day in the mountains. Once we had a table we all ordered some tostones and pastelillos. We saw a couple of chinchorreo buses go by while we were eating which was so fun. This place is a gem and has a great view. I would recommend visiting if you have time while in Puerto Rico

Truly a five star experience all around. We sat in the same spot as Anthony Bourdain and we got the empanada sampler and appetizer sampler and everything was top 5 best things I've ever had. The view is second to none, the service was excellent. Highly recommend this place.
