Roots Coastal Kitchen

The place sounded pretty great from the reviews I have seen. The seating looked very luxurious and it was very calm and quiet, which I liked. They had a very nice pina colada and the peanut butter milkshake was amazing. The way they plated the food and the looks of it looked magnificent and delicious but the service was average. Waiter didn't really show much emotion whatsoever and there was a very limited menu and nothing there was even Puerto Rican related food. They had some pizza, salad, and some appetizers. the food was crazy expensive and tasted terrible. We ordered the deviled eggs which were only 2 eggs (4 halves) and those were very bitter and after just one bite, the others at my table did not want to finish it and almost threw up. I also ordered the chicken empanada which looked amazing as I said about all of the food, and even tasted amazing as the very first empanada I tried before, but the portions were incredibly small and came with 3 empanadas, each less than half the size of a banana (for reference). We also ordered these sea salt fries and they were almost completely soggy and the portion was incredibly small and this "sea salt" is just barely any basic salt, McDonald's fries taste much better than these and mind you, these were 14 DOLLARS! we also ordered this "Puerto Rico style fried chicken" and it didn't taste bad but this was about 24 dollars and KFC actually tastes better!! I am sorry for possibly wasting your time but if you made it down here thank you for considering my opinion. Conclusion: you should never go here, Portions are incredibly small, food tasted below-average and was extremely expensive. Would only recommend buying the peanut butter milkshake which was pretty big and very nice, and the pina colada. Would not recommend especially if you are a tourist. Try some actual local food If you are here for travelling, like me.
