      Galloways is a Boqueron gem with he best piña colada in Cabo Rojo. It's the perfect place to grab a drink and watch the sunset.

      This place was soooo cool. The seating area is over the water and you can see bunches of huge fish swimming just below you. They all start swarming when you through some food in the water.
      The food was very good, it was a great night time atmosphere and I loved the freaking fish!!

      Appears to be out of business. They have not been March 2022 nor January 2023. Appears to be shuttered up and only used as a parking lot.

      English and Spanish Reviews:

      Beautiful place where you get to eat right next to the ocean and see a few fishes have some fun close to you. The food was delicious and fresh but the prices are kind of ridiculous. I get it's a tourist town but come on, you can tone it down a few. Besides that, great food and service.

      Hermoso lugar donde puedes comer al lado del mar con una vista linda y peces vendrán a visitar mientras comes. El servicio y la comida son buenos pero los precios están altísimos. Es super lindo y delicioso pero los precios pueden ser más económicos.

      I would not suggest this place to someone to eat at. On Saturday night it was pretty empty which should have been a clue considering it's physical location being in the heart of the action. We ordered the camararones mofongo and for $19.95 it was quite the let down. it didn't have much flavor and was not all that large. It is definitely not a plate you share unless it's just a snack and at $20 that's one he hell of a snack.
      They are on the water which is nice but aside from that it felt more like a tourist trap than a quality go-to locals spot.
      We stopped there again the next night and it was the same thing, empty. This time we just tried some finger bar food. It was okay at best. Won't be stopping here again. Save your money

      I loved the meals I ate at Galloway's when I was in Boqueron. The food takes some time to come out, but I could tell that everything was made fresh to order. I'd rather wait a little longer for a quality meal then instantly receive blah food.

      The first time I went I was still somewhat full from a late breakfast. I ordered the sorullitos (fried corn sticks) to have something and as full as I was, I still ate the whole plate. My girlfriend had the chicken bacon sandwich and plain mofungo. We could tell the mofungo was excellent, even though we had never had it before. The sandwich was big enough for two people.

      The second time we ate there I was hungrier so I ordered the Pechuga de Pollo Asopaos (Chicken Gumbo). It came with more sorullitos which were great - and the gumbo came out in a little metal pot. It was the best gumbo I've ever had, including gumbo I've eaten at top rated places in New Orleans. I couldnt finish it because of the portion size; it was big enough for two, maybe even three people; but I wish I could have! I fed the sorullitos I couldn't finish to the beautiful tarpin fish that swim around the restaurant (it's on a pier). My girlfriend ordered tostones (fried plantains), mozzarella sticks, and spinach/artichoke dip appetizers as her meal. Everything came out perfect and fresh.

      While we were there we had the opportunity to experience their St. Patrick's day Parade / celebration. This is a must see. The whole town / region gets together and marches through the town ending up at the restaurant. If you make advanced reservations you can sit in the dining area after the parade and enjoy corned beef and cabbage. I was pleased with this meal as well, and the party was a great time.

      The only negative thing I can think to say is that they add 15% tip automatically to every check. I don't like that some restaurants do this, but I understand why they do. As long as it's clearly marked on the menu and bill (it was) I tolerate it.

      My advice: if you find yourself in Boqueron head over to Galloway's. Be patient, as your food may take some time to come out, but you will be happy and satisfied when it does. If you are looking for something to do next St. Paddy's day, take a trip down to Boqueron in Cabo Rojo and enjoy a great time!

      Good view, the food not so much. Excessively expensive soft drinks. Good place not to repeat.

      I felt like was was in the Keys of Florida..

      The freshest seafood in Puerto Rico..We ordered, my friend was starving and 30 minutes later, (There was only one waitress and though it wasn't crowded, it still took time for our food to arrive..)

      It was worth every minute..Patience is a virtue...The conch salad was so good Being on the water was delightful.. and the kicker, in the parking lot was a muscle Mustang..
      I would definitely come back!!!!!!!!!

      Yelp has the location wrong, but thankfully we found the vibrant little deck restaurant and just before the kitchen closed (10 pm on a Friday night). However the karaoke was just getting started and we definitely enjoyed the entertainment! Plus the food was delicious and reasonably priced. The whole area in the center of Boqueron is something out of a movie. Beautiful, chill and sensational west cost PR island flair. We love.

      ***Just dont. It took 2 hours to receive our food which was mediocre at best. And to add insult to injury they automatically added 15% gratuity to the bill for a party of 4. There are many more interesting little places if you park and walk throug the the stalls. ***

      We've been here over an hour. We haven't even been served our appetizers. Our drinks are empty, no one has asked about refills. We aren't the only table that has been waiting. Most places close by 8 in PR. We have the option of continuing to stay or hope we can find something else. I don't recommend anyone attempt to eat here. If I actually get dinner I will let you all know if it's worth it.
      **1.5 hours in a family of 8 that came in a bit after my first post (and long after the kitchen closed sign.) just received bowls of soup. There is 4 in our party and 3 on another party that have been patiently waiting. No additional drinks..still. There are only 6 tables and 2 waiters. Even if the kitchen is slow they could bring water? Or booze...maybe I wouldn't notice the hour.
