Sandy’s Seafood
Obscured on a quiet street, Sandy’s is the most popular restaurant in town and, by word-of-mouth, manages to attract the odd tourist-resort escapee. Perhaps best described as a fish-and-chip joint for lobster eaters, it’s certainly not posh – sauce bottles adorn the tables – though you can get the full gamut of seafood here, from a traditional red snapper to jalapeño peppers stuffed with shrimp or lobster.

Shimas
If you have a sushi craving that must be met while in Luquillo, head to Shimas at the Westin Río Mar resort. It serves authentic Japanese food, as well as some Thai and Chinese dishes. There are 12 restaurants and lounges in the Río Mar. Other good eating choices are Ajili Mójili, serving traditional Puerto Rican food, and Cactus Jack’s, which has won awards for its innovative Tex-Mex cuisine.

Lolita’s
Lolita’s is 3 miles east of town on the south side of Hwy 3. The Mexican meals are so popular that the owners have moved into a building twice the original size. A soft taco costs $2.50, and many dinners run under $10. Imported Mexican mariachis provide the music.

Bamboo Lounge
Aside from offering first-rate horse rides and mountain biking, Carabaldi also has a great restaurant, with panoramic views of the ocean and the rainforest. There’s great Puerto Rican fare, a kid’s menu, and a bar and patio area that stays open until 2am.

La Exquisita Bakery
Well perhaps not ‘Champs Élysées’ exquisite, but, as far as Luquillo goes, this place could satisfy a few sweet tooths. Slap-bang in the town’s sleepy main square, this is where locals gather for cakes, pastry, coffee and sandwiches.

Erik’s Gyros & Deli
It doesn’t look much and opening times can be sporadic, but locals swear by this place a few blocks south of the main plaza in downtown Luquillo. If you’re missing gyro sandwiches or have an incurable penchant for feta cheese, this is the place.
