Restaurantes el meson puerto rico: Our Menu – Meson Sandwiches

Guide to Mesones Gastronómicos in Puerto Rico

Arroz y habicuelas are the staple side dish in Puerto Rico. 

If a restaurant is promoted as a mesón gastronómico, you know it’s going to be good.

Most tourism hubs in Puerto Rico, like San Juan and Rincón, have a huge range of excellent restaurants which are easy to find, have English-language menus and bilingual servers, and offer consistently great service and food. It can get a bit trickier to know where to stop for lunch as you explore the central mountain range or small fishing towns along the coast where there’s typically less tourism (aside from locals out on a day trip).

That’s why the Puerto Rico Tourism Company (PRTC) established the Mesones Gastronómicos program in 1987. Participating restaurants, all of which are in regions outside of the metro area, have been endorsed by the PRTC as offering excellent service, high-quality food, and maintaining their facilities in the best possible conditions. You’ll recognize which restaurants are endorsed by a large sign outside that reads Mesones Gastronómicos that also has the name of the PRTC in Spanish (Compañía de Turismo de Puerto Rico).

All of the restaurants currently listed serve authentic criollo food (Puerto Rican creole), some leaning more towards meat-centric dishes (particularly those restaurants located in the central region of the island), while others focus more on local seafood and fish (the coastal towns). What they all have in common are classic Puerto Rican staples like rice and beans, mofongo, tostones, and other specialties.

As you drive around the Island, you’ll see signs listing the different region names such as Porta del Este, Porta del Sol, and so on. These are tourism regions and the mesones gastronómicos are divided by this particular designation.

If you’re on the south of the Island, don’t miss the opportunity to try Lola Eclectic Cuisine, located in the Ponce Plaza Hotel and Casino. Their dishes bring together Puerto Rican, Spanish, and international influences in unique and very effective combinations. For more traditional fare, head to Salinas where you can dine at oceanfront Restaurante El Balcón del Capitán or Restaurante El Roble. Be sure to order at least one dish with the famous mojo isleño, a rich tomato-based sauce with slow-cooked onions, peppers, and olives which was invented in that town.

Along the east coast, there are currently three mesones gastronómicos. Daniel’s Seafood in Humacao is a casual oceanfront eatery that receives everything from snapper to giant lobsters from local fishermen. For a more upscale option, visit Pasión por el Fogón in Fajardo, where the dishes also skew more international in their preparation. Finally, there’s Star Fish Restaurant in the Fajardo Inn, where the presentation of the food is just an impressive as the flavors.

Head to the west coast for beautiful sunsets and great dining. If you’re in Mayagüez stop by Hacienda Latina where you can choose from daily lunch specials or try some of their creative criollo dishes for dinner. Further south in the town of Lajas, in the hotel Villa Parguera, you can dine at Aquamarina Restaurant, specializing in seafood, and with a gorgeous view of the Caribbean Sea. If you want to go off the beaten path, visit SaGra Kitchen Bar in the tiny town of Sabana Grande where on weekends they play live music and karaoke.

One of the most famous mesones gastronómicos is Casa Bavaria, in the town of Morovis, a beer garden with a German and Puerto Rican food menu that specializes in sausages, from the local longaniza to bratwurst, which you can pair with a diverse selection of beers. At Parador Villas Sotomayor in Adjuntas you can enjoy breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a drink at Restaurante Las Garzas. For a more rustic but still elegant experience head to Tío Pepe Restaurant and Guest House in Aibonito.

FIND MORE DINING OPTIONS IN THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS

If you’re staying in Dorado, El Ladrillo Restaurant is a fantastic fine dining option, with both a robust meat selection and fresh local seafood, as well as an extensive wine list.

Not All Mesones are Mesones Gastronómicos

It’s important to note that some restaurants are called a mesón but aren’t part of the Mesones Gastronómicos program. A mesón in Spanish is a rustic or traditional restaurant. Certain restaurants like El Mesón Gallego in San Juan or Salitre Mesón Costero in Arecibo use the word in their name but aren’t part of the PRTC program. There’s even a local sandwich chain called El Mesón Sandwiches which, while highly recommended, doesn’t qualify as a mesón gastronómico.

El Mesón Sándwiches celebra sus 50 años en Puerto Rico – Sabrosia

Bajo el lema “Más boricua, nadie”, la cadena de restaurantes puertorriqueña El Mesón Sándwiches conmemorará su medio siglo en Puerto Rico con la apertura de nuevos restaurantes y el lanzamiento de una innovadora campaña de mercadeo que se extenderá durante todo el año 2022. Así lo informó Felipe Pérez- Grajales, presidente de El Mesón Sándwiches.

La cadena de restaurantes fundó su primer restaurante en el 1972 en la ciudad de Aguadilla bajo la visión del empresario don Felipe Pérez Valentín. Desde entonces el negocio familiar ha logrado una trayectoria de éxito y crecimiento convirtiéndose en la primera y más grande cadena de comida rápida puertorriqueña, un legado de la familia Pérez- Grajales de Aguadilla.

“El Mesón Sándwiches es un negocio familiar; ahora con una familia mucho más grande compuesta por más de 1,500 mesoneros que se esmeran día a día por brindar el mejor y más fresco producto. Nos enorgullece contar con un excelente equipo de trabajo que son parte esencial del éxito alcanzado y agradecemos la lealtad y patrocinio de nuestros invitados, a quienes hemos servido con el compromiso que nos caracteriza durante los pasados 50 años. Por tal motivo, hemos puesto en marcha una innovadora campaña que contará con múltiples actividades y sorpresas durante todo el año para agradecer a nuestra clientela y conmemorar este momento histórico junto a la gran familia de El Mesón , expresó Pérez – Grajales.

Como parte de las iniciativas programadas, la cadena de restaurantes abrirá este año dos nuevos restaurantes; uno en el municipio de Guayama y otro en Lake Nona en Orlando Florida. Al culminar este año la empresa espera contar con 41 restaurantes en total distribuidos entre Puerto Rico y Orlando, Florida.

Bajo la campaña “Más boricua, nadie”, El Mesón Sándwiches ha forjado una alianza con una institución cultural. Lanzará diversos productos promocionales, nuevas variedades de sándwiches, plataformas tecnológicas que harán más eficiente y ágil la compra de los productos de la cadena boricua, así como iniciativas de causa social, entre otras sorpresas.

“Nuestra misión cobra cada día más fuerza: brindar el mejor servicio y servir el sándwich de la más alta calidad, lo más rápido posible, en un ambiente de familia para todos nuestros invitados”, afirmó Pérez – Grajales, al recordar que su padre don Felipe desde los inicios del restaurante en Aguadilla estableció como práctica llamar a los clientes por su nombre, acción que continúa realizando la cadena al momento de tomar la orden de sus invitados.

El Mesón Sándwiches ofrece un amplio menú de sándwiches, desayunos todo el día y café 100% puertorriqueño. Abrió su primer restaurante fuera de la isla en junio de 2015 en la ciudad de Orlando, Florida.

Durante su larga trayectoria la empresa ha provisto ayuda en momentos de crisis en Puerto Rico y ha contribuido a importantes causas sociales con fondos que superan los 700 mil dólares. Además, ha recibido múltiples reconocimientos. En el 2012, la revista Travel + Leisure reconoció a la empresa familiar como una de las mejores cadenas de comida rápida en el mundo.
