La Montserrate

Description:

• Located by the ocean, this restaurant draws a loyal clientele from the surrounding residential neighborhood. A culinary institution in Ponce for the last 20 years, the restaurant occupies a large, airy, modern building divided into two dining areas, one slightly more formal than the other. Specialties, concocted from the catch of the day, might include octopus salad, four kinds of asopao, a whole red snapper in Créole sauce, or a selection of steaks and grills. The cuisine is standard Puerto Rican fare, and it's a family favorite.
