- EEmilySan Francisco Bay Area •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe sat at the bar and had dinner. The octopus appetizer was a must get. They first brought out our entrees and must have forgotten about the appetizer, but they quickly brought that out too when we reminded them and we didn’t mind. The atmosphere was very nice and the cocktails (espresso martini and jalapeño margarita) were excellent. Would definitely recommend for a nicer date night or vacation dinner.More infoSantaellaPrice: Expensive• Puerto Rican• San Juan•4.8
