Hands down best food I’ve ever eaten in Puerto Rico in my many trips here and maybe the best seafood I’ve ever had in over 45 countries I’ve visited. If you ever have the chance to visit this ocean front gem in PR you won’t be disappointed for sure. You have to try the coconut seafood with rice that’s served in a coconut, the seafood salad with conch, octopus and shrimp, the amazing whole fried snapper, and they even have amazing chicharrón de pollo for non seafood lovers. I am staying at the St. Regis 5 star resort with great restaurants but made villa Herrera my new go to spot for lunch and dinner. Closes at 6 so make sure to make it on time you won’t want to miss this place.

One of our favourite places so far, the food is fantastic, we had the camarones endiablados and the seafood rice with mofongo, everything extremely tasty! The location is absolutely breathtaking right on a beautiful beach where the Herrera river meets the ocean. Our server was a younger lady that was super nice, the other servers were not so much, not mean, but not a lot of smiles either, that’s the only feedback I would give but a fantastic place to dine!

We first visited in 2015 when Felicia first opened. Every time we visit Puerto Rico we come here. It is the BEST! The food, the service, the servers, EVERYTHING!!! If you want authentic Puerto Rican food, with the flavor and culture of Loíza, come here.

First visit, and I would definitely go back!
This restaurant is near the beach and an area where bomba dance class is given.
We ate arepas with coconut flavor served with octopus salad!! - DELICIOUS
We also ate mofongo with fried fish strips - DELICIOUS
...and we drank delicious sangria!!
* There are a lot of parking spaces.
Beachy, toes in the sand, casual restaurant with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I went on a Saturday, at 1pm they had a Bomba dance class. For two hours, about 30+ locals and tourists learned and danced together tonthe live drrummers on a sandy dancefloor under lush palm trees. A rainstorm ensued, but NO ONE MOVED FROM CLASS 😄. It was awesome.

Sat at our table for over an hour before anyone even came to ask us for our drink order. I would love to give a review of their food but we each finished both our drinks before they even came to take our order and after waiting hours we decided to just go somewhere else. And the pina colada the waitress basically forced us to order was okay at best and watered down. I don’t understand how the reviews are so good. It’s a beautiful beach view though.
Editing to add, they were also out of half the stuff on the menu.
