have to agree with some of the posts regarding churchills - its by far my favourite restaurant in puerto rico - weve been going to puerto rico for 12 years now and have got to know the staff fairly well - most of which are the same staff who were there in the beginning, which i think is a positive sign. the restaurant itself is in the main commercial centre, but in a slightly quieter corner, away from the main strip, so its nice to sit outside in the summer, without the usual racket. Also, churchills is probably the only restaurant in the commercial centre which does not use pr's shoving menus in your face - i find this very annoying!
the menu is very extensive and extremely good value for money - if you like ribs then churchills is a must - also try the t-bone steak if you have a huge appetite (the portions are very generous). they also offer lighter meals such as salads, wraps etc, and the seafood is also very nice, not to mention the best sunday roast dinner in puerto rico!
the only criticism i have of churchills is that unfortunately for us, it does not open for breakfast or lunch, but the evning meals more than make up for that.
Keep up the good work guys!
I've been desperate to try San Miguels, but have never managed to get a table, the queues have have always been half way up the commercial centre! I'll take that as a good sign and try to get a table again next time.

Puerto Rico. Tiffany's in the commercial center in Puerto Rico. in the main entrance, upstairs on the right...they are all "mad" in there at night.
watch you don't get a hair cut .
some quizzes, good music.
they prefer you to have white socks on with your trainers, one off the few places.

Hello all,
If there's anyone who can suggest a good restaurant offering traditional Cararian cuisine; please reply. Hoping to surprise my father-in-law as he's up for anything sea food based. Although We'll be based in PR, we'll have transport so if there's any suggestions set in the mountains...great.
Many Thanks

Only 1 week to go before our holiday to Gran Canaria. This is our first time to the island. Can anyone recommend decent places to eat? We love Indian. We are visiting with 2 children aged 12 and 9 staying at the Marina suites.
Just along the road - 3 mins walk from Marina suites - towards the beach is the Taj Palace. Really good Indian.
Carry on walking along that way and you'll come across Wigwam bar. Nice for a drink and next door - Yogi and Benny's - english brekkie type place.
Carry along and go over the bridge to the beach - walk along the beach and you'll come to the Passarella centre - its behind the sailing school (Escuela de Vela). Downstairs is the Waikikki bar and upstaris - lotsof nice restaurants. Oscars - pricey but special, Rhodos palace - greek, very good. On the far end is a pizza place. Dont know what its like but its got a nice outlook
If, on the other hand, you turn right before you get to the Indian and go under the bridge - El Gaitero is in that parade of shops. Good restaurant.
Hot Spot bar - owned by John and Vizzy - nice bar - do hot dogs etc until they close.
So, theres a bit to be going on with. Have a lovely time

Firstly let me just say you've chosen your accommodation well.... we just returned to Scotland yesterday after a fortnight at the Marina Suites, and they are excellent in every respect
We also visited theTaj, and although it was good we found that the one in the Commercial Centre, called Happy Valley was even better.
Food was as good as we'd ever had andvalue for money outstanding. Two adults and a 12 yr old, two drinks each, and we were never more than 35 Euros. Mind you it does help getting a free ice cream or coffee thrown in. We'll certainly be visiting again later in the year when we return to Peurto Rico.
Enjoy

Having been to pr many times and tried loads of resturaunts i would recommend Happy Valley of all the indians we have tried there this has got to be the best and the people who work there are lovely too.
Ang, fair point ref the staff, forgot to add that myself.
They really go out of their way to look after you and make you feel welcome.

Best Restaurant in the Commercial Centre is San Miguels. The have no PR trying to get you to go in .. but you do have to queue to get in there its that busy. Once in the food is delicious !!! Would thoroughly recommend it to anyone going. Chinese Buffet places are nice too but to be honest all the restaurants serve the same thing.
My wife and I have been to Puerto Rico about a dozen times over the past few years and we always make a point of eating at Casa Juan. This is a small local bar/restaurant opposite the Aqua Park. Juan is a one man show. He cooks the food, serves the tables and prices are very reasonable. His paella is a work of art and should not be missed. You have to give him 24 hours notice as it is all freshly cooked.
We are going again this winter and will definitely go for the paella.
