Highly highly highly recommend the tasting menu. Itās a type of cuisine you donāt often get a chance to try. You might as well get to experience the full range of it. And man did it deliver. Absolutely loved it and will be back

I had the vegan tasting menu here and was blown away. I was served a salad, a creamy soup, bruschetta, a tostada, a taco, main of tamale, red rice, and some root vegetables, followed by dessert. Highly recommend. My partner had the regular tasting menu and also really enjoyed his meal.
First time visit was amazing! The food is so good, wanted to order everything in the menu. The ribs are a must order along with the empanadas. We also had a shrimp dish that was like ceviche and was so good. The iceberg lettuce wedge had a wasabi dressing that is amazing. The service was top notch and our server suggested on of the menu own of lamb neck. If you like lamb you need to order this. Can't wait to go back and bring friends.

One of the best meals I've ever had in San Francisco. The entire serving team was very kind, warm and welcoming - truly a family-style restaurant. The food was incredible. The koko wings were by far my favorite, and probably the best chicken wings I've ever had. Was a great place to reunite with a friend who I haven't seen for a few years, over great food and in a great setting.

Prubechu has a really great vibe and the staff was super friendly and welcoming. The chicken wings and coconut braised cassava were my favorites and the shrimp and grits where also delicious.

Honestly, a bit overpriced for the offerings here. The food tastes very good, though the salad and spinach dish was lackluster.

This place has amazing food and a great outdoor seating area. The food is so flavorful and fresh, and the menu had tons of shareable options for larger groups. Thereās a good mix of meat and veggie options, too. This was my first time having Guamanian food and I canāt wait to return!

This is absolutely the worst. This eggplant coconut cream dish I ordered for ālunchā was $30 after tax and tip.
Gave me the worst headache so I couldnāt even finish the damn thing. Iām guessing they use jar-pickled eggplant - since sulfites are typically used to preserve.
Donāt recommend for vegetarians/vegans and never coming again.

I hate to say this and I very rarely feel this way about a restaurant, in fact I donāt even remember the last time I felt this way, but this was by far one of the worst dining experiences I have had. I will preface this by saying that Prubechu was at the top of my list of restaurants to try while visiting SF. I heard great things about it and was very excited to come here with my husband for our anniversary. Unfortunately, that excitement was met by the biggest disappointment. Hereās why:
After checking out the menu, our server explained to us that the fiesta table (tasting menu) is where the āchef brings out the best of the foodā in 10 courses. Itās $96 per person for this option. We compared the regular menu items, which by the way already seemed unreasonably expensive ($25 for 5 chicken wings, $32 for a potato dish, $10 for pickles, etc), and we decided YOLO letās do the feast. We were excited to go all out (it was our anniversary) and to try their cuisine. First course was a creamy potato soup. Very mediocre, and I was concerned at the decision we just made to spend $200 on dinner with this being the first course. Then a āCaesar saladā. Idk in what world that was a Caesar salad. Not that I care that it wasnāt a Caesar salad, but why are we calling it that? It was large chunks of tomatoes, very large pieces of frisĆ©e, corn, and a creamy dressing. Caesar? Also it was very lacking in flavor. Then they brought us a cheesy focaccia with super crispy edges (this was the best thing we ate there but how is that even Guamanian?) Then they brought one small shrimp tostada. For the two of us. It had an avocado cream base and cold shrimp on top. Very basic, kinda bland. At this point we asked the server for hot sauce, he brought us a (tiny) condiment cup of hot sauce and told us to use very little because itās super spicy. He wasnāt lying, the entire dinner we consumed probably half of a teaspoon of the hot sauce (this is relevant for later). After that they brought us two tacos with cold meat and grated coconut. Again, not flavorful, and cold. Then the entrees: short rib and chicken wings. The short rib was surprisingly tough, we had a hard time cutting it. And the chicken wings had a nice crispiness to them but extremely overhyped. By now, we are absolutely shocked at what we had been served for the price they were charging. But I figured dessert may just fix all of this. Wrong. A scoop of vanilla ice cream with a little nut crumble topping sprinkled on top. Thatās when I really felt scammed. $96 per person and youāre serving us a scoop of vanilla ice cream for dessert? That felt extremely lazy and disrespectful. And then get this - we get the bill and they charged us FOUR DOLLARS for the hot sauce. WHAT?!! We couldnāt believe it. We already felt the tasting menu was way too expensive for what they served, and then they canāt even give us a complimentary spoonful of hot sauce?? I have never felt more scammed in my life by a restaurant. My husband and I go out often and donāt mind spending money on nice meals, but this was beyond disappointing and the biggest waste of money. I genuinely have no idea how people are leaving such great reviews. I truly wish we felt that way because this was no cheap dinner, we only got 9 of the 10 courses for some reason, portions were small, horrible value, and just not good food. The only good thing at the restaurant was the service, the guys who served us were nice.

Prubechu is really tasty! The BBQ pork ribs and chicken kelaguen are delicious, and the KoāKoā wings are a must-try. The backyard vibe is fun and relaxed. Some dishes were just okay, and service was a bit slow, but overall itās a great spot for bold, flavorful food.

The owner was extremely rude and dismissive when I asked a question, making the whole place uncomfortable. My food also came out undercooked, and the kitchen didnāt look clean ā serious concerns about food safety. Definitely wonāt be back.

10/10 amazing experience! We accidentally made a reservation for the wrong night, but they were able to squeeze us in anyway. Every person we interacted with was so kind, and our waiter gave us great recommendations. On top of the friendly service, the food was amazing. The brisket was so tender, the side dish with cassava was insanely good, and the tinaktak was another winner. Highly recommend!!
