Straight Fire - Edit
Ok this place deserves all the praise from the other reviews. It’s straight up delicious. Had the bistec sándwich combo and a relleno with impossible and basically mashed potatoes. Damn delicious. Always searching for relatively healthy high protein vegan options and this was it.
Read moreIt wasn’t super obvious to find though. Look for a big blue sign that says Mauis Great Burger. That’s not it.. that’s for take out only. The sit down HP restaurant is literally directly across the street from that blue sign.

Incredible Food Awesome Service - Edit
This was an amazing experience with a great owner. We tried many items off the menu and were pleased with them all. It is vegan comfort food but they do have some healthy options. If you are in San Juan and you are vegan this is a must visit. The vegan chili cheesesteak sandwich is one of the best anywhere. Also what makes this incredible is that it is real Puerto Rican fair that is completely vegan. My wife had the vegan shake and it was to die for. The bistec encebollao is highly recommended! (So is the pastel combo, arrepa combo, and the mac-n-cheese with “bacon” for children).

Mediocre - Edit
The server was really nice but it took forever to get our food and we had to ask multiple times for things (more ketchup, drinks, ect). We enjoyed the milkshakes but everything else was meh. I probably wouldn't go back.

All vegan comfort food - Edit
Excited to try a new all vegan restaurant. Ordered a spicy chicken sandwich but it was not spicy at all, think I was just given a regular one. I think the patty was made in house and was too thick and bland for my taste. The crazy fries were excellent, but pricey for the portion size.
Read morePros: The cheese sauce on the fries was amazing!
Cons: Got wrong item., Service was slow and not friendly., Some items seem overpriced.

Great variety and authentic flavors - Edit
Spacious eating in a cool art space. “Authentic flavors on all the dishes” said my born-and-bred Puerto Rican dining partner (boyfriend). Wonderful to have a vegan oasis in San Juan. The restaurant is actually across the street from what appears to be the restaurant. That’s the kitchen it turns out. The eating space is across the street in a white store front with no sign. So some slight confusion there. Maybe it’s a Covid thing.

AHHHHH! So good! - Edit
Since going vegan, I’ve missed the authenticity that comes with latin food, and this place deserves alllllll the praise for reintroducing it into my life! I’ve been here twice in the last two days, because I simply cannot believe how delicious it is. I tried all their empanadillas, and loved every one. The impossible meat doesn’t even taste like regular impossible meat!! It’s way better. The empanadillas are also way bigger than you’d expect! I tried the paella they had on special this past weekend, and I could have cried at how good it was. I haven’t had good paella in years so this completely satisfied my need. I also tried their steak quesadilla and as expected, delicious. Definitely a must try place as a vegan in PR! The online ordering was so simple, and my order was ready very promptly. The staff is also super friendly. 100000% recommend!!!

SUSTITUTO CARNICO - Edit
Abiertos en Abril del 21, hay que concederles valor. Y bisoñez también. He comido en decenas de restaurantes veg, pero ninguno como este. No tienen verduras. Parten de la premisa de que, en Puerto Rico, las verduras no tienen aceptación, y por eso lo que venden son platos típicos de Puerto Rico con alternativas no cárnicas. Y, la presentación, en formato para llevar a casa.
Read moreLa comida la suministran y preparan en el restaurante de al lado, de fast food (Maui's great burger) , pre-existente a este y algo así como asociados.
Tuvimos que luchar denonadamente para que nos pusieran una ensalada de tamaño normal, no una side salad; al final 2 side salad por casi 20$. Carisimos algunos platos como la ensalada dicha o una pasta que parecía de lata de supermercado por casi la misma cantidad (20$), aunque ya se sabe que en PR la comida es cara. Sentí vergüenza ajena.
Es decir, si quieres comer sano, este no es tu restaurante. Si quieres fast food vegan, acertarás.
No pongo menos puntuación por la atención de la Srta. que fue muy correcta, y el servicio, rápido.
Lo mejor, el plato "mixto", rico y equilibrado y por precio justo.
Globalmente no lo recomiendo.

Great food, Bad wait time - Edit
I came here because the reviews seemed good. While the food was great and loved it, I nearly left before trying it out because I waited slightly over an hour for it. We asked about 2 times how our food was coming along before we asked to cancel our order. The cooking staff didn’t seem to know what was going on. There is no sense of urgency but that also seems to be a pattern here in the PR. The restaurant wasn’t even full- there were 2 other small groups of 2-4 people when we arrived and yet the food took over and hour to arrive. The food was also brought in to-go containers, which isn’t a bad thing, but if I was eating there I expected to be served for in-house dining- this last thing is more of an observation however. In the end, I think the food was great, but I don’t want to wait that long for my food so I’m not sure if I would go back.

Food was awesome. Service was ok. I sat down in their lovely restaurant and ordered three things from the menu. It took them 1.5 hours to get it to me. Their reasoning was because Uber eats orders were coming in.

Authentic Puerto Rican Food, 100% plant-based. - Edit
Don't give up Puerto Rican food just because you don't want to eat animals. I had the alcapuria mixta & it was excellent. Great Boricua menu options. The place is called 100%HP / Maui's Great Burgers on a little street called Cerra off Ponce De Leon Ave. Will come back to taste other options.

Awesome (all-vegan) local food - Edit
Great place to experience a vegan take on traditional Puerto Rican food. They sell rice and pigeon peas (gandules), alcapurrias (fried plantain fritters stuffed with beyond meat), and empanadas. They also offer vegan burgers and other “healthy junk food.”

Mejor experiencia visitando a PR - Edit
Súper contento de que pude conseguir una opción vegana tan pronto llegue a Puerto Rico. Adicional a eso pude conocer al dueño en persona que tantos años sigo en los medios. Comida 100% recomendada. Perdonen la foto pues la tome ya cuando había empezado a comer.
Read more100% recommended. I was craving for this vegan option and OMG highly recommended and for sure will come back again. I also got to know the owner that I’ve been following him for many years.
