The Kioskos at Luquillo Beach is a very busy local and tourist spot where you can enjoy Puerto Rico’s well-known local culinary delights and seafood dishes as well as popular piña coladas, margaritas and mojitos. You can also get great local souvenirs to bring back home from small shops. If you want to dine in, we highly recommend Terruño #20 for their Puerto Rican cuisine and La Parrilla #2 for their seafood, especially their famous Caribbean lobster. Don’t forget to take a dip in the beach before or after eating, it has clear blue waters!
While we like some of the other options outside the resort better, if you don't feel like getting in the car, the Wyndham is a nice beachside walk from Ocean Sixteen. The best and our favorite restaurant there is Palio.
Take a right outside of the resort, and go to the top of the hill and you'll find Richie's on your right hand side. You will have amazing views of the Rio Mar Resort, the golf course, and the ocean.
The sushi rolls are very creative and tasty, combining Caribbean flavors and flair with traditional sushi fare. When you get to Hwy 3, just take a right and in less than a block you will see W on the right hand side.
This is a cozy and small restaurant that has traditional Puerto Rican dishes that are very tasty. On weekends they also have live music playing. The locals in the area love this place because of the authenticity of the cuisine.
This place is a MUST if you’re craving a great breakfast. It is a wonderful little family run restaurant, all local freshly made organic fare, with herbs and vegetables from their own gardens. Their coffees and breakfasts are AWESOME! It is right across Hwy 3 (go straight across, turn right - there is a parking lot a block down to the right. Only park on the left (rainforest) side of the street.
Head back north toward Highway 66, and turn right on Hwy 187 - Bahia Beach will be on your right a few miles down the road. You MUST have a dinner reservation to enter the resort. There is very high-end, upscale dining at fern, and casual beachside dining at molasses.
The 5 O’Clock Somewhere Bar and Grill is at the Margaritaville Resort which is within walking distance.
Iguanas Cocina Puertorriqueña is at the clubhouse which is also walking distance.
