We went yesterday. The waitress came just once by our table to ask if we were ready to order and something to drink. Didn't see the waitress until she brought the food, more than half an hour later. Weather was rainy and windy, so we ordered an asopao de pollo (chicken stew)... It was pale and made with frozen chicken... More

Had drinks and some snacks after a day on the beach. Nothing too special about the food, but views were great.

We went one night during our stay at Villas del Mar Hau, and to our luck they didn't have anything we wanted to eat, all and all we ended up eating at another place

The food here is overpriced for the amount and quality vs other options. A main dish was $15 to 25 and no salad or other sides (veggie fruit etc) of any kind. The food itself was good, we had Mofongo's and excellent chicken tenders. Service was ok, not bad, not great, considering 2 servers and only 3 tables with customers... More

The view from Olas y Areana is beautiful. You overlook Montones beach and it truly is spectacular. The food was cool, bland and it took over an hour to receive it. There was ONLY two other couples there! I will NOT be returning NOR recommending this eating establishment to ANYONE.

Great food variety, good taste, average prices for a tourist area. They have daily specials for guest staying at the villas. Try the piña colada and the seafood mofongo they were great.

Whe went several times to Montones beach and used Haus facilities (you pay $10/car and can use their parking and access to the beach). The second time we went decided to reduce the amount of food brought and decided for a lunch in the restaurant. They had a special offering a small fried snapper, mofongo made out of Yuca (cabassa),... More

This is a bar and restaurant right on the Atlantic Ocean in Isabela Puerto Rico. The sounds of the waves and the breezes mixed with the food make it a very pleasant experience

Right on the beach, nice and clean but that's about it. Food is way overpriced, server must have been in training as it took forever to get anything. Asked for a bottle of wine, got two glasses instead. The T-Bone steak probably started out about 3/8ths of an inch thick and shrank from there. Asked for medium rare and got... More
