We've lived in San Juan for almost a year & only recently discovered this place. I went with friends for lunch on a weekday. It was not too crowded and the food and service were wonderful. The waiters were very helpful especially for my friend who cannot eat gluten. Definitely try the sweet potato dessert. It was heavenly...

We were greeted very nicely by the staff and we were very well taken care of during our visit. Add that to the creative menu and excellent food, and this place is an absolute winner.

Fun place, lots of ambiance. Very good food with many interesting, creative twists. Some would call it fusion cuisine; to me it was just..... yummy!

During a week long stay in San Juan this restaurant was the highlight of my dining. I went with a group of nine family members and we probably ordered about 30% of the items on the menu between us, so I got to taste many dishes, and everything was good to excellent.

The way this place is decorated is awesome and the food is wonderful. Their calamari are really good and the skirt steak with guava sauce is delicious. They can sometimes be a little slow in getting you to a table, but the service in general is good and the staff very personable. I've already been here 2-3 times and its... More

The fish tacos were outstanding, the lentil cream soup fabulous. Main fish course perfect and heavenly desserts made of coconut and chocolate. Plus a very attentive service and reasonable prices. The best!

. The food at the restaurant is excellent. It is fresh to the point that some items don't hit the menu untill they arrive. The wait staff is super nice and very helpful. This was the best food we had in Puerto Rico by far. The stuff pork chops will be haunting my dreams. Recommend the pistachio flan as a... More
