  The service was good. It was a sports bar atmosphere and it was around 5:00 pm when we arrived. The pastelillos were good and the chef was kind enough to make them with chicken, which was off-the-menu. My husbands steak was over cooked and the beans and rice were nothing at all like the traditional beans and rice served all over PR. We were brought out basic red beans with plain white rice which was a let down. I had the house burger. It was ok as the salami slices did not pair well with the hamburger at all, but that could just be a local delicacy I am not a fan of. I ordered beans and rice like my husband did, but was brought French fries. They were plain and though I did not enjoy them it could have been that I simply didn’t want them. The alternative was the same rice and beans my husband received, which was also not what I expected when I ordered the rice and beans. ☹️ At least the sweet plantains worked out. We did each have two well-made drinks; a piña colada and a rum & coke made with Malibu. Both were tasty. All said, I woke up at around 3:00 am with the absolute worst nausea and diarrhea imaginable and a terrible headache. All lasted well into the next day along with some accompanying body aches, weakness, fever, sweats, and chills. It is two days later as I write this and the nausea and headache still persists. My husband has felt fine. Not the most memorable dining experience.
