I was visiting San Juan for the weekend. Went there for dinner on a Saturday night. The food was excellent ( some unexpected but great blend of flavors like the alcapurria with beef tartare). Good service and ambiance. Will definitely come back!

Visited yesterday with a group of friends. We asked for alcapurrias as appetizers, super savory and amazingly decorated. The octopus salad super fresh and with citric touches, nice. Also asked for the cheeseballs with homemade jam from tropical fruits. Delicious. Main course was fresh cod with beans, soft and delicate in taste. Amazing. We finished with homemade ice creams and delicious desserts. Great wine list. Super friendly service. Highly recommend culinary alternative in San Juan.

Es la tercera vez que lo visito en los últimos 2 meses. La comida excelente, al igual que el servicio. Siempre pido las alcapurrias de aperitivo, son diferentes y deliciosas. Invite a una amiga a almorzar. Compartimos La ensalada de peras y gorgonzola y un plato de salmón, y un postre. Súper satisfechas.

Loved the food. Had the burrata salad, loved the combination of flavors, the cheese balls, great, the croquetas, yummy and the morcilla baklava, only suggestion with this plate is to make it smaller, but it had good flavor, loved the pistachios. Also had the cod with the seasonal gnocchis. Service was very good and the ambiance nice. For sure will go back.
