    My boyfriend and I came for our last night in PR, and also for his birthday. We loved everything we ordered we even got oysters and sushi twice! The fish was so fresh and the entrees were full of flavor. Our server Wycliff was so kind, knowledgeable, and gave the best recommendations. Most of what we ordered was because of his say so! And it led to a 5 star review. A must visit for a nice dinner while in PR. I will visit PR again just to make sure i come here again. Incredible food and incredible service.

    I had an amazing birthday dinner at Lala! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious and reasonably priced, making it a great value for the experience. Our server, Fabian, was fantastic—super knowledgeable and gave excellent recommendations that we loved. The attention to detail really stood out, like the small table they provided for our handbags, which was such a thoughtful touch. The decor and vibe were spot on, creating the perfect atmosphere for a special night. I’ll definitely be coming back!
