La Pradera

This is the absolute best best best place to eat!!! The mofongo and the sauce were so good!!!! 🔥 10 out of 10 I had to go back again before I left and it was still absolutely amazing!!! These guys are busy and work hard they get the order in on time and food comes out hot and tastey!!!

Great spot, very friendly and great coffee. Was greated and served immediately, ordered a few items all where really good. My favorite was the coffee and service. Will definitely be back and recommend 100%.

This is a nice little place for local and tourist the prices is great for both islanders and tourists. It’s a very busy restaurant one server but he moves fast and great. The food smells delicious and the taste is on point. Simple but perfect will remind you of your mothers cooking. There service is fast like the speed of New York but with the love of the enchantment

It might not seems very attractive from outside, but it came out to be a great finding. Cheap prices and really good food. Nice portion size as well. They have a large variety of Puerto Rican food. I’ve tried the Stuffed avocado with codfish (bacalao) and it was really tasty! Service was a little weird at first, but they were attentive and helpful. Will definitely come back!

🇵🇷 🍳 GREAT VALUE & YUM!! La Pradera (la-prah dare ah) aka ”The Prairie” is a local bustling place. Sit at the counter at this likable Puerto Rican 1960’s-type diner. They serve a great breakfast and filling lunch everyday except Sunday. Sit at the counter you’ll enjoy the “food show”, order eggs with cheese and toasted flattened buttered bread 🥖 - their American cheese tastes much better here than anywhere else. Order a sweet thick fruit shake “Batida”, preferably the papaya one. It’s thick, sweet and delicious. You must order a cup of their creamy Café con Leche! Enjoy a Mallorca (my your kah) with margarine. This is where local people from the neighborhood start their day, you’ll see many sweet older Puerto Rican women pop in here dressed in their pretty dresses with a simple necklace. 🌸 Spanish is spoken here primarily but many of the staff speak or understand English. This is a feel good spot, nothing fancy but good homemade food. I love it’s old school vibe! Everyone feels like a local here. 😇 🥖 If you’re very hungry, their lunchtime food features hearty Puerto Rican fare… stews, chicken, meats, rice and beans and often Tostones. If you’re from the contiguous United States, you’ll equate this with a heavy dinner meal but in Puerto Rico that’s what people have for lunch! Many places such as this offer red snapper on their menu, it’s usually fried whole so be aware of that, it’s also delicious. I really wish this place was open for dinner because I know it would be packed! La Pradera is located across the street from the wonderful “Courtyard by Marriott/Miramar”. If you’re staying there, you may want to make this your go-to place for breakfast and lunch. They have bargain prices and they serve generously. Two blocks away is the terrific “Caribbean Cinemas Fine Arts” theater/Miramar. (Check out their app!) La Pradera Hours: 7AM - 3PM daily EXCEPT Sunday when they’re closed.
