Pani Agua

Really good food, I just became vegan. Get the mushrooms!! The tostones are really savory and crunchy. Great eats

Very good drinks and service! If you're looking for a chill vibe definitely come here!

Such a gem! We were waiting for a food tour in the square and decided to grab a cocktail before it started and what a surprise! The mojitos come in a variety of flavors and Chris ( super handsome bar manager) made one after another and each was better than the next. The hookah and the food smelled so good we came back the next night. We had the ribeye skewers, octopus, sliders, and a bunch of small bites. The food portions were generous and our server on night number two, Lali was also super cute and excellent t.

Great drinks, great service, a real hidden gem.

Vibes and great hosts are here.

Loved this place instantly. Walking in they were playing 90s/2000s r&b and our hosts were friendly and welcoming from the start. It's great, they serve tapas, drinks, and hookah.

What we ordered:
Bacalaitos (homemade cod fish fritters): light and crunchy!
Rib eye skewers: flavorful and had to get another order!
Coconut shrimp: great crisp here!
Mussels and wine: so savory and so good!

Highly recommend the blue melon and ladykiller shisha together for the hookah . Very refreshing and didn't feel heavy at all! Soo good! I like playing around with the smoke and "trying" tricks out but the ceiling fans and wind from the open door made it not possible at all but not a deal breaker.

As a lady, one thing I found odd was there was no toilet paper in the bathroom. The paper towels was there for all your needs.

TLDR: Good food, wonderful ambience and great service
We walked in to Pani Agua late night on our first day visiting Puerto Rico. While it was difficult to find food post 11 with their new regulation, Pani Agua was one of the few and really offered great options.
They even offered to switch beef for chicken in their sliders. Our host Rashelly was really polite and helped us make custom drinks to our taste!

Ribeye skewer was so good the first one didn't make the picture! Mojitos was awesome!

On our honeymoon cruise & wasnt going to get off the boat in Puerto Rico because we have been here 5 time, but my wife insisted we visit our FAVORITE chill spot Pani Agua..food & drinks always on point but we come for yhe HOOKAH & Julian got it right‼

Pani Agua is forever in our hearts.

A+ service with love every single time .

Chris gave excellent service and provided helpful recommendations about flavors and options

Love this place. Everything about it! Location, options, menu, everything!! Definitely recommend. Louis is my favorite!!

As you can see for yourselves the owner also leaves rather aggressive comments on unfavorable reviews.

For added context on her comments so you can make your own decision whether to come here:

None of us initially entered this restaurant with food from another location. After reviewing the menu, one friend decided she would prefer a sandwich from the stand outside so she went to get one, fully intending to not eat in this restaurant because we know it is disrespectful.

However, this same friend was also considering buying a drink and she had asked the staff/owner if she ordered a drink if it would be ok for her to eat her sandwich also. Rather than politely saying "no we would prefer you to not do that" they responded in a rude tone and demeanor. (Similar to how the responses are to these reviews, probably same person)

The waitress who was not the owner was decent. She wasn't rude.

Also regarding the owner's comment that we were "upset when we came in". Thinking back the only thing we were likely upset about is that there were not many options available that were serving food at that time, which is external to the situation. But we try to make the best of each situation and had this restaurant been a better experience she would have been able to witness that as well, but unfortunately that wasn't the case.
