When we arrived, we told the Hostess we had a reservation. She looked at us and she said they don’t do reservations! I then I tried to explain I had made it on the open table app she said that they don’t honor reservations... that the location is one a first come first serve basis🤬Then took our name and we had to wait😠I don’t understand how I made a reservation to save myself on having to avoid the line and waiting to just still end up having to wait regardless because they don’t honor reservations😡

Finally! A restaurant that serves mofongo as good as I get in San Juan. Had a great dinner at La Fondita on Saturday night with spouse. Started off with nice green salads - a mixture of lettuces and a very good citrus vingerette. Then we both had mofongo as an entree. He had his with shrimp in garlic sauce. I had the chicken with white sauce. Service was great, everyone was very friendly. Only negative was the chicken was a little dry for my taste and it could have used a little more white sauce. Very large portions - took home enough for lunch the next day. We'll be back soon and bring along some friends. Very happy to have found La Fondita.
