Bien Papayas — Restaurant in San Juan

I went here twice within 24 hours. No joke, the staff there was the best staff we came across during our time in Puerto Rico. They were all super nice, like super nice. One more time - super nice. The price was really reasonable both times, and the staff completed my orders quickly each time. In my first visit, I ordered an iced coffee with Bailey's, La Doña Fele smoothie, and the Buye Beach smoothie. The coffee was perfect. La Doña was incredible. It had a strong guava taste, and it wasn't too sweet. The Buye Beach was just okay. The next day, my wife and I got two iced coffees, a seltzer, and two mallorcas. Again, the coffee was awesome. The guava and cheese mallorca was incredible. It was like a fatty, savory dessert or a sweet sandwich. It was the tastiest mallorca either of us had during our trip. My picture of it looks like trash because we started to devour it before I thought to take a picture. The ham and cheese mallorca was okay. If anyone at Bien Papaya is reading this, congratulate yourself. You made my day great two...

Caution to everyone - make sure you doublecheck before you pay! Look at your receipts as well. UPDATE: the owner reached out and apologized when we called. She assured us that this has never happened before. She then took care of the issue and had the tip $ refunded. I am grateful for the quick response! I have adjusted my review as well to...

Got a few Piña Coladas that tasted like canned pineapples in crushed ice. One was so bitter we couldn’t drink it, the other needed sugar added to it and it was still on the bitter/bland side. I’ve had no sugar fruit drinks before. The natural sugars in a pineapple should have been enough to sweeten the drink. It’s like they intentionally gave us bitter drinks made with the excess/waste fruit stuffs. Not to play the race card but we did get a weird vibe the second we walked in (the only black couple). Everyone else there seemed to enjoy their drinks but we did not. When we asked for them to fix the drinks they gave us a map of other places that served...
