We had read a lot about this place and were excited to try it. There were some good things on the buffet, like the oatmeal, but overall didn’t find it outstanding. Next time I’d order from the menu and skip the buffet.
Good food. Fun time. Good server....very friendly. Oatmeal was delish. Would come back.
The avena de coco is phenomenal the rest of The food was just ok. The service was terrible. Took 35 minutes to get our check, and it wasn’t even our original server. My dad asked for a different mug for his coffee, he wanted black coffee the second time he originally had cafe con leche), but everyone just turned away and said no. I’m assuming it was because he had to pay which we were totally ok with), but they flat out said no and had thee worst attitude in life. There should be more urgency in checking people out so the line isn’t out of the door for a table. This place has soooo much potential, but definitely need to do some staff training.
The Coconut oatmeal changed my life! Brought me back to my grandma memories in Rio Piedras, PR.
