ALaCena Restaurant — Restaurant in Arecibo

wow wow wow.. this place is beautiful, the entrance of this restaurant was magnificent. The chairs were placed in an elegant fashion yet placed in a way that beckoned you to sit down and have a meal. From the beginning to end I was greeted with such warm smiles and a kindness that filled me with joy. Now to the food.

The food truly matches the ambience which is the one best things about this restaurant that I loved. To start I had empanadillas which were to die for and left me wanting more. Definitely getting more when I come back. I had the steak which is a top tier NY Strip Steak It is definitely the best steak I’ve ever had a perfect medium rare. To accompany this dish I had tostones and manposteao I almost licked the plate clean by how good it was. I took a photo of the plate but it was so good I had to dig in and completely forgot to take a photo before; that’s how good it was.

Saludos y bendiciones. Hoy es 9 de agosto y exactamente acabamos de salir del restaurante a las 5:15 de la tarde. El aperitivo que pedimos fue alcapurrias y no eran fue algo inventado de muy mal gusto. Era una lámina de plátano grasosa con picadillo de cerdo muy salado. Pedimos los sorullos de caja de caja con un poquito de ropa vieja encima por un precio demasiado alto. Los tragos no estaban tan mal pero muy costosos. La langosta fue horrible pedimos dos langostas con salsa de ajo y no trajeron la salsa de ajo dijeron que lo habían cocinado en salsa de ajo y sabian a nevera no estaban limpias las langostas tenían manchas negras muy feas y el sabor era terrible sabían la nevera totalmente sin sabor y no sabían a ajo los tostones estaban llenos de grasa que los devolvimos y trajeron los mismos llenos de grasa. Les quiero decir que es un abuso haber pagado $270 por una comida que me quedé con hambre con un sabor tan horrible somos una pareja que comemos siempre afuera hemos caminado todos los restaurantes de Hatillo y Arecibo y fuimos a ese porque no lo conocíamos y es la primera y la última vez que iremos. Por favor favor no anuncien lo que no dan es muy vergonzoso poner a capulla cuando no son sino una lámina de tostón de plátano aplastada llena de grasa y la langosta fue terrible. El arroz de la paella que pedimos para llevar está crudo y duro. Esto es un robo a mano armada y es una vergüenza lo que hacen le digo que no hay nadie que ha cogido más restaurantes que nosotros asistimos a restaurantes cerca de 10 veces mínimo hemos ido a la cueva del elfo que exquisito y demás pero créame que lo que ustedes hacen no sirven y es un robo a mano armada....
