Kikita Beach House

Kikita Beach House is a stunning oceanfront gem! Nestled right by the water, its open-air, beachy setting offers breathtaking sunset views, perfect for photos and romantic dinners.

The staff was warm, attentive, and friendly, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. I had the red snapper, which was incredibly fresh and flavorful, the quality of the food definitely matches the relaxing coastal vibe.

Pro Tips:

Call ahead for a reservation or arrive early to snag a sunset-view table.

Parking is limited, so plan accordingly.

Wear light, breezy clothing evenings can be warm in the open-air setting.

If you're looking for a laid-back dinner spot with ocean views, delicious seafood, and a great atmosphere, Kikita Beach House is a must-visit in Dorado. Come for the view, stay for the experience!

Food is good. People are friendly, scenery is cool and outside parking spots. Can't beat the music too. Dorado is a blast

Restaurant has the most beautiful views. Server Billy was a gem and catered to all our requests. The food was excellent as well as the drinks. Live music was the cherry on top for us. Definitely my husband and I are coming every time we come to Puerto Rico.

Absolutely loved our experience at Kikita Beach in Dorado! The view was absolutely breathtaking, nothing beats dining with the ocean right in front of you. The service was top-notch from start to finish, and the food was delicious. Everything we tried, we loved! A special shout-out to William for his amazing wine recommendations, each pairing was spot on. He was incredibly knowledgeable and made our evening even more enjoyable. Can’t wait to go back!

We ate at Kikita and it was absolutely fabulous. I had the shrimp special and my hubby had mahi-mahi. The mushroom appetizer was delicious. Did I mention the service, ambience and view? . Just loved it. Don’t miss it.

The brothers(the owners) are EXTREMELY attentive and is reflected in the amazing staff.
The food 100/10 each time
Prices are great and you will not leave hungry at all for the contrary I can barely finish my course.
Do stop by and give these young entrepreneurs the chance to be one of your favorites spot!

Nuestra experiencia no fue buena. Llegamos a nuestra reservación a las 6:00pm y comenzamos a recibir algunos de los platos 1 hora y .45 minutos más tarde.

Esto fue después de preguntar varias veces por nuestras comidas y hablar con el manager. El waitress no daba seguimiento para saber que estaba pasando con la comida.

Se ordenaron 7 platos y 4 de ellos estaban salados. 1 de ellos estaba sumamente salado y lo devolvimos.

Uno de los plato llegó después que todos habían comido y también estaba salado.

Pedimos hablar nuevamente con el manager pero nunca llegó.

Cuando recibimos el bill cobraron el plato que se devolvió. Al solicitar que lo eliminaran, el waitress dijo que no sabía si se podía hacer. Después de varias conversaciones, lo eliminaron.

En resumen, la espera fue muy larga, la comida muy salada y no recibimos un buen servicio de parte del que nos atendió. No lo recomendamos.

My uncle brought me here for my birthday dinner. Place is gorgeous, drinks are good, service good. However, the food was terrible. I sent my food back twice. 1st time my chicken was a little under cooked. Then when it came back and I started to eat the flavor was no good and my fried plantains were burned. I sent it back and they offered a replacement of any kind on the house. At that point I wanted nothing else. My uncle & husband ordered the fried fish & fried plantains. Both plates came out burnt. I could not believe it. Fish was so hard. At that point my uncle said don't bother complaing lets go. We left and my husband and I ate at the hotel. I will never go back. I wish I could upload the pics of the burnt food.

Fui hoy 1 de Junio 2025, el restaurante es muy bonito, el mesero fue muy amable y nos atendió muy bien la comida no es muy buena, en realidad se puede comer mejor en cualquier otra parte sin gastar tanto, la comida se tardó mucho los mosquitos no te dejan comer, es muy triste pero sinceramente no lo recomiendo, una vista muy hermosa una barra espectacular pero la comida muy mala, espero puedan mejorar

Visually this place has set a high standard. Located on a hilltop facing the ocean. The view was amazing, the food looked great. The ambiance was perfect! Unfortunately, that's where it ended for our visit. My wife and I were visiting PR celebrating our 17th Anniversary. We booked an 8PM reservation for Saturday the 31st. We arrived and were seated. The place was filled and every dish looked amazing. Sadly we sat for 40 minutes and were never attended. We sat patiently waiting while everyone was being served and waited on and after about 40mins made a decision to leave. The host was very apologetic and sweet. I'll definitely give this place another shot and would consider this a simple mistake.

From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and every dish we ordered was a flavor-packed delight. The food was not only beautifully presented but cooked to perfection — fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and perfect seasoning.

Absolutely amazing. Drinks, food, service. All of the above. I'm shocked the overall rating isn't higher. We stayed local on vacation. We could have walked but it was raining. Parking was sufficient. Highly recommend the Blue Lovers appetizer!

Update: I am writing again because we visited a 2nd time. Our first visit was on a Wednesday, the 2nd was on a Saturday. It was much busier on Saturday of course and I have to say, it was just as great! Victoria did an outstanding job of serving us both nights. The service was just as fast on Saturday as it was on Wednesday. And again, the food and drinks were amazing. This place is probably the most worthy of a 5-Star rating than any I have ever been to!

As mentioned in another review, it is not handicap accessible, which is important to note.

Para ser un día de madres la comida salió super bien y muy sabrosa. ¿El servicio? Mali SE BOTO!! Y cuando vuelva tiene que ser la mesera JAJAJAJ. Nos hizo gozar en cantidad y nosotros con l@s meser@s. No tenían algunas cosas en el momento por la alta demanda, se entiende ya era de noche. Las opiniones del lugar me daban un poco de ansiedad pero fue lo todo lo contrario. Todo fresco y muy sabroso. Y guardia del parking, le falta un poco de educación, pero en general 10/10

Took my mom and grandma here for Mother’s Day and I couldn’t have picked a better place. The service was absolutely incredible—our server (I wish I had gotten her name) went above and beyond to make my ladies feel special. She kept them laughing, engaged, and made the whole experience so memorable. She was super knowledgeable about the menu and drinks, and just had the perfect energy. I’d recommend this place to anyone!

Service was really slow when we got there and for the type of restaurant they're trying to be they need to step up there game. Got seated and waited for about 10-15mins for a waiter to show up. Usually it should take 5mins especially if you're going to charge more than $60 per plate.
The food tasted good and the portions were good. No complaints there.

Ambiance was ok. Music was way too loud and felt more like a club than a dinning experience. Taste in music was horrible for the type of setting. I would go for something more chill and not as loud. Could barely listen to what the person across from me was saying and I'm nowhere near deaf!
Waiters were on there phones, chitchatting and just not paying attention.
Would I go back?
Probably not, honestly think the place is overrated and there are better options that are closer. The slow Service was the biggest downfall and no sense in urgency.

The service was phenomenal. The waiter was super kind and went out of his way to accommodate me; he let me swap the coconut rum in the cocktail for mezcal. And let me tell you… it turned out to be one of the most mind-blowing drinks I’ve ever had! The food was amazing!

Tuvimos una experiencia maravillosa durante nuestra visita al restaurante, y gran parte de ello se lo debemos al excelente servicio brindado por Maliz.

Desde el primer momento fue atenta, cordial y sumamente profesional. Nos hizo sentir bienvenidos, respondió todas nuestras preguntas con una sonrisa y nos ofreció recomendaciones acertadas que elevaron aún más nuestra experiencia.

Su calidez y dedicación marcaron la diferencia. Es evidente que le apasiona lo que hace, y eso se nota en cada detalle. Gracias, Maliz, por hacer de nuestra visita algo memorable. ¡Definitivamente volveremos!

I went on sunday april 13th 20225. Tgat was the worst restaurant i have gone to in my intire life. The problem wasn't the food it was the bugs. They dont tell you but when the sun goes down the flys and other insects are attracted the the lights and the get everywhere ( the food, clothing and hair) they dont stop and the staff they dont do anything they just laugh at you while you get attracted by bugs. Tge owner was there that night and he didn't do anything. I dont recomend and km reporting this place to the CDC this is a really bad place to eat

Had a reservation for a Sunday night at 6pm. We couldn't find a parking spot anywhere near the restaurant which was clearly very busy. The streets are very narrow and crowded. Since we didnt know the area, we went somewhere else, but couldn't stop thinking about Kikita. We went back the next day for lunch and had a wonderful time! There was plenty of parking, no wait to be seated. The wait staff was so friendly. We had the filet mignon wrapped in bacon and took the salmon bruschetta to go. The food was delicious and the view is... you have to see it for yourself!!

Fui al restaurante. Muy buena calidad de comida y trato. Ese día cumplí un año de novios y no me arrepiento de la decisión.

Lugar altamente recomendado! Simplemente superó mis expectativas en comida, ambiente y vista. Sin duda alguna volvería, sientes la vibra linda desde que entras hasta que sales y si su mesero es Jean se sentirán extremadamente bien

La atención desde la llegada fue espectacular Gracias Gabriela. Y mesero Jean Carlos tu atención fue espectacular buen servicio tus sugerencias demasiado acertadas. Y un aplauso a Chef el sabor y la confección de todo lo q degustamos fue muy por encima.

Nos atendieron super bien Gabriela en la Recepción y el Mesero Yancarlos espectacular super atento todo el tiempo super servicial las recomendaciones espectaculares la comida sabrosa volvemos pronto. Bendiciones Abundantes para todos siempre Kikita beach house..Familia Guerrido Ramos y mil gracias alos chef x su sabor espectacular de todos los alimentos riquisimos..Uff una explosión d sabores espectaculares. Felicidades para todo el equipo de trabajo.

Una experiencia maravillosaa! Un lugar super acogedor, ambiente familiar, Servicio de Calidad. Cada vez Que voy a la isla paso por kikita. Hoy interactuamos con Omar. Que chico tan agradable y atento.

Nice. Menu is limited, but ok. Expensive for what they offer. It's a decent experience. We had a nice waiter. They kept our drinks filled. And we're all around kind.

Hermoso lugar, bella vista. Servicio y atención excelente. Esperaba un poco más en cuanto a la comida. Buena porción y presentación pero 7/10 en sabor.

Everything within me wants to give this place a 5 star. It's worth a visit. Very pricey, slow service, we were there for almost 3 hours. The lobster tail was the size of my 16 year old daughters hand (maybe smaller) and it seems that thats what the hold up for our dinner was. The server disappeared once she realized it was taking a while. Were used to eating in Europe so we're not typically folks that expect our meals right away, we love the experiences we have together at the table as a family but this was excessive. The tomahawk steak was good, risotto and chicken tasted like it was cooked with sea water, very salty. But apps were tasty. Maybe worth stopping here and getting apps to see how slow the service is on that particular day. If I'm in town, I'd give it another shot but was very disappointed!

A pesar de que el estacionamiento es incomodo el lugar es hermoso. Buena vista. El servicio excelente. La comida es buena.

Espero volver pronto

Beautiful setting and friendly staff, but poor communication, long delays, and inedible food made for a frustrating night.

We visited with a party of eight, including three kids. The appetizers were delicious — we had the octopus (polpo) and chorizo, and both were excellent. The children ate appetizers as their meals and they were also delicious. But after a long wait, we realized we still hadn’t ordered entrées. That’s when we were told they were out of the halibut I wanted and the lobster risotto my wife had planned to order. I switched to the bronzino with mushroom risotto, and my wife was offered a lobster tail with risotto instead — with no mention of the $40+ upcharge, which is completely unacceptable.

We ordered dessert for the kids to buy some time. Their desserts came and went, but our main courses didn’t arrive until nearly an hour after we ordered them. When they finally showed up, the food was a major letdown. Several of us had risotto with our meals, and everyone at the table agreed it was extremely salty — to the point of being inedible. The lobster was overcooked and just as salty.

Bottom line: beautiful view, kind staff — but at this level and price point, the experience just didn’t hold up. Disappointing overall.

Excellent service, food n drinks. Great environment for all the family. I truly enjoyed the view and sound of the ocean! My waitress was awesome, very attentive and provided great recommendations!

Hidden gem with delicious octopus and other specialties, a vibrant atmosphere, and a terrace offering stunning ocean views. The service is friendly, and there’s plenty of parking. While the drive there feels a bit off the beaten path, the restaurant is safe, lively, and absolutely worth the visit for a relaxing seaside meal.

We had a wonderful dinner at Kikita Beach House. The food and craft cocktails were amazing! Our server William did a great job recommending dishes and pairing them with cocktails. The view was beautiful! All over wonderful experience!

This restaurant is amazing! The parking is difficult so bring cash because there is an attendant who valets. William was our server and he was wonderful! He had plenty of recommendations for us and our kids. He really made sure the kids had what they needed which made it easier on us. We had the Argentinian Delight for appetizer and it was delicious. Kids had chicken nuggets, sliders, fries, mac n cheese and piña coladas and loved all of it! We had fresh salmon over gnocchi and lobster linguine. Both were awesome! We have been to many nice restaurants and had lots of great food before and this ranks up there with some of the best. The sunset views are beautiful!!! Definitely recommend this restaurant and William.
