Cocktail bar
La Factoría is a vibrant hangout with a rustic-chic vibe that has gained international acclaim for its excellent cocktails and classic bar bites. It's a local favorite in Puerto Rico, known for introducing mixology to the island. The bar consists of four different spaces, each with its own theme, including a room filled with rum-fueled dancers and a DJ playing until late. The middle space features old-school salsa music and boasts one of the best dance floors on the island.
It's probably the best cocktail bar I have ever been to. Great vibe. I feel like you're back in the Hemingway error. The bartender was awesome and talented. Made me a paper plane and my wife and lavender mule. Excellent. Highly recommend this place
Joe E — Google review
This was, hands down, our favorite spot in San Juan. We went both in the morning and at night, and both experiences were amazing. The bartenders were incredibly kind and professional — they prepared our cocktails right in front of us, based on personal recommendations, and really made us feel special. The cocktails were absolutely fantastic. We tried several different ones, and each had its own unique and delicious flavor. The atmosphere is that of a stylish, elegant bar — I’ll share some photos! Whether you’re looking to relax after a long, hot day or wind down after a night out, this is the best bar in Old San Juan. Highly, highly recommended!
Tuğçe K — Google review
Oh my god, La Factoría with live salsa completely blew my mind! The vibe, the dancing, the music — it’s all just incredible. Definitely a place you can’t miss. The cocktails are excellent, and it’s such a cool experience discovering hidden little bars behind different doors. It does get really hot inside, but honestly, I had an amazing time and would go back in a heartbeat.

I went to dance at this place with my friends because everyone recommended it. It did nit disappoint. It 's located in Old San Juan. Every room in this 2 story building has a bar with a different theme and music, so you can walk around from room to room and enjoy different types of music rhythms like Salsa, techno, reggaeton, techno, etc. The salsa room was packed with people dancing. It seemed like a good combination of locals and tourists.
Yarleny R — Google review
It's somehow highly rated, but not worth the hype. It's kind of different bars all in one place where you can hop on, but becomes costly as you step up! You go here just for the atmosphere, but not for anything else. Cocktails and the food are good and so is the location.
Raghu G — Google review
Reviewed as a bar when looking for delicious drinks this place was ok at best. We arrived close to open and all the additional rooms were closed, so we were told lots of drink options weren’t available. Staff were friendly and service speed was decent. It definitely sounds like this place is a lot of fun at night as basically a club, but definitely not a place for amazing drinks. If you’re looking for great drinks go to Kane Rum Bar. Overall for all the amazing reviews this place was ok, so if you want the best experience for what they offer go at night.
Coach T — Google review
La Factoría has the reputation that it has for very good reason!!! It IS the epicentre of fun, excellent vibes, superb live music and salsa dancing with people at all different levels. We went after finishing a late dinner on a Saturday night, and the vibes that we were hoping for - we received with open arms! There was no long line to get in, and it was definitely crowded inside. Getting drinks wasn’t too crazy of an ordeal — but most importantly, and I cannot stress this enough, it was SUCH an amazing time!!
Tania W — Google review
This bar definitely has a great atmosphere. It has different rooms and each room has its own bar. Music is always on point here; can be loud but you’re still able to talk. It’s a tourist area, prices are according to that. Tip: there’s an area most people don’t know about. Have fun looking for it.

Restaurant
JungleBird is a cozy tiki bar located on the edge of La Placita in San Juan, known for its Taino-tropical drinks and imaginative bar food. The bartenders at Jungle Bird put a modern twist on the classic Pina Colada by combining tepache with Don Q Oro and coconut cream to create the Tepache Colada.
“This part of the city has a vibe all its own—think Jungle Bird meets a touch of NYC energy. It’s fun, exciting, and full of life without feeling overwhelming. The eats are amazing, the music sets the perfect mood, and the area has just the right amount of buzz. It’s a busy spot but never overcrowded, making it ideal for visitors looking for a great night out. Plus, with its cool atmosphere and unique style, it’s a fantastic place to grab some Insta-worthy pictures while you’re at it!”
Brandon W — Google review
JungleBird is located in a lively neighborhood with plenty of bars and music. I loved the cool aesthetic, and the vibe was great—everyone there seemed really happy. We only had drinks, but the food looked delicious and definitely worth trying next time.
Stacy A — Google review
Their mix drinks were average. It was hard to come here after Kane Rum bar which really put the standard high. Their prices were on par for the area just not the quality compared to Kane. We sampled some appetizers, but overall nothing was worth mentioning. Staff were friendly and service was fast, but the place was empty. Overall I really wanted to like this place it was just a let down.
Coach T — Google review
I’m soooo happy I found this cocktail bar. I tried a couple drinks and all of them were fantastic. The best part were the prices. $10-$14 for a drink that’s made with love and care? Go next door and pay $9 for a rum and coke.
Brandon S — Google review
Interesting place. The good: The drinks and service were great. The food was good as well. The other side: This places smell really weird. The music is quite loud and the tables and menus need updating. Would I go back? Probably, yes, the drinks were that good.
Steven D — Google review
I cannot speak highly enough about Junglebird and the lovely bartenders. My husband and I showed up like a couple of nerds at 5:01 to be sure we could get seats at the bar. We got super VIP treatment by Robertson and Ed.. they schooled us on PR tiki history and served the most amazing drinks.. my favorite of all time the green swizzle that I’ve since been obsessed with recreating. The food was also bomb. This review is a bit late. Went in December 2024. Can’t wait to return this December!
Emily V — Google review
I don’t say this lightly when I say, they have the best tuna tartare on the island. I’ve been visiting PR monthly for the past year and I’ve had a lot of opportunities to try different restaurants’ version on it, and JungleBird found the secret sauce! The drinks are good, i love the atmosphere and the service has always been acceptable…but I’m just here to tell you all to go try the tartare and report back!
Jessica J — Google review
Food shouldn’t be overlooked here. One of the best Mac and cheeses I’ve ever had and it was a special. Tiki cocktails are flawlessly made and service is kind and quick. Absolutely love this place. Can’t wait to recommend to friends who visit and to come back myself.

La Placita de Santurce is a vibrant and lively market square in San Juan, Puerto Rico. As the sun sets, the bars and restaurants surrounding the traditional farmers market come alive with activity. The atmosphere is bustling and energetic, making it an ideal spot for those looking to enjoy a night out. Visitors can hop from one establishment to another, savoring drinks and snacks while taking in the lively ambiance.
Had a great experience and an amazing time. The drinks were great for the price that we paid for the food was great overall the music was on point but definitely recommend going after 10 PM. We got there at seven. It was a bit too early. It started getting better later times but an amazing experience. I recommend it

First night In Porto Rico We decided to stay in the old city it seems to be authentic and pretty, for those who like history and learning about the city is the place to be. We went out to this place which was recommended bu many people There’s is a lot of bars and restaurants on the same area all around the food market which I will visit today The bars are basics but the ambience is funny The only things is that they like listening to music very very loud and while you are walking in between bars it’s very annoying between Latin and hip hop music We tried différents food and bites Wasn’t that bad but we didn’t discover the heart of portoricain food yet. I will’ be posting more about San Juan … to be continued

La Placita de Santurce is a vibrant spot in San Juan that truly comes alive on weekdays and on the weekends, this was on a Thursday! The atmosphere is electric, filled with music and the sounds of laughter. It’s a fantastic place to mingle with locals and enjoy delicious street food. Literally dancing and bar hopping in this square and everyone was friendly. People are here to have a good time. La Placita is definitely worth a visit!

La Placita is a great place to party in Santurce. We stayed close by and went every night we were in Santurce. We had dinner in one of the restaurants one night and just got picadores because we were going to walk around. My favorite spots were La Buena Barra, Tulum, Dirty Monkey, and Paradiso. Walk around and enjoy all the music and drinks, its amazing. Be aware that the prices are much higher in this area than outside of the city! Also many people, if not everyone came here after the concert ended.

Cocktail bar
The Mezzanine in Catano, Puerto Rico offers a unique experience with its 1950s Old San Juan ambiance. The bar is located in the home of Pedro Albizu Campos, a leader of the Puerto Rican nationalist movement. Despite its historical significance, The Mezzanine serves classically inspired drinks with a tropical twist such as the Guava Cosmo and Patria Libre. The bar's rustic interior and generous happy hour attract both visitors and locals.
What an awesome find. We had struggled to find a place open for dinner on a Monday night. We tried 3 places and finally decided to give the Mezzanine a try. We were welcomed in, even though Eloy was the only one working he still made sure we were tended to. A great job managing the whole place regardless of the staffing. Eloy had great recommendations for drinks and great conversation as well. The food was absolutely delicious and the drinks even better. We actually never sit at the bar anywhere but if you come here, just do it, the experience and conversation with Eloy and the other staff that arrived later was so welcoming. We hope to come back soon and if you are in the area, DO NOT MISS The Mezzanine. Thanks Eloy!!! -Ethan & Michaela

🌟 5 Stars – A Must-Visit in Old San Juan! 🌟 N Mezzanine was an absolute gem! Tucked away with charming ambiance and a cozy, elevated vibe, this spot instantly became one of our San Juan favorites. We tried the shrimp & pineapple dish — the flavors were bold, fresh, and perfectly balanced. The fish tacos were equally amazing: crispy, well-seasoned, and topped with vibrant slaw and just the right touch of spice. To drink, we enjoyed an Old Fashioned made with Maker’s Mark — expertly crafted and smooth — and a refreshing house cocktail that was bright, citrusy, and ideal for the warm Puerto Rican evening. Service was attentive but relaxed, and the overall vibe was chic without being pretentious. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great food, creative cocktails, and a memorable experience in Old San Juan!
JV W — Google review
The saving grace to our experience was the shrimp with pineapple and the aioli and our lovely server. Now the worst - The sweet and sour meatballs straight up tasted like something out of Chef Boyardee canned ravioli or the meatballs that come in them. We took a bite and were like nope. Luckily our server gave us grace and offered for us to get a replacement, which we did again with the shrimps. No wait for a table on a Tuesday night. We sat on a high table on the balcony which so cool to people watch. Drinks were okay.

Hidden gem in Old San Juan. Located on the second floor of a lovely historical building, with arched balconies overlooking the picturesque views of this magestic part of town. The design is sophisticated, ambience is chill and pleasant Food is delicious and the cocktails are absolutely amazing. Bonus - the downstairs cafe of St. Germain is also highly recommended

We had such an amazing dinner here. The tapas were great but our server was better! Adrienne was our best server of the trip! She went above and beyond to make sure our friend's anniversary dinner was special and gave great food suggestions. We loved all the tapas except the Mac and cheese. Restaurant Seemed sketchy from the outside but we went up the stairs and loved it all.

This is a great place and location. Right down in old San Juan on the 2nd floor, they have a bunch of drink specials and great food. We visited on a Saturday night. This place was happening with a lot of traffic. We were able to sit on the balcony, and people watched for a while and had a little dinner and some cocktails while we sat here and people watched. It's a lot of fun. Definitely stop by.

We stumbled upon this sweet spot on a Thurs around 5pm. The service was top of the line. The food was delicious. We had the ceviche and patata bravas. It’s a vibe.

Eloy and Lorna were magnificent! The experience was nothing short of perfect. The ambiance was relaxing. Dim lit, music not too loud, and balcony seating for two. It is freaking awesome. Very romantic. Came here for our honeymoon and this place was absolutely a highlight. In fact, we had brunch downstairs at the St. Germaine (same owners, different aesthetic and vibe- both outstanding) and now we are here for cocktails and dinner. We will be returning to Puerto Rico just for this experience. Both Eloy and Lorna were very informed and shared the rich history and significance of this particular establishment on Puerto Rico’s history. Just awesome. Don’t miss out.

Nestled in the historic Miramar area of San Juan, Bar La Unidad is a dimly lit speakeasy-style bar known for its mixology-driven cocktail program and tapas-style bar food. It's considered one of the most romantic bars in the city, making it an ideal spot for a pre-dinner drink or nightcap. The bar offers a blend of classic cocktails with tropical Puerto Rican ingredients, such as the CocoLoco and Smoky but Berry Fresh.

Jazz R — Google review
Unidad is unique and gets a well deserved gold star from me. It is in fact my favorite bar to have ever visited and will remain a permanent staple in my visits to San Juan. The cocktails are made with an excellency that cannot compare to any place I have visited in other places. The bartenders are in fact the definition of mixological sorcerers, carefully crafting each elixir with an intoxication that can't be described. I came two nights in a row and left incredibly pleased. Make sure to reserve ahead of time, they have seen a surge in popularity and it's no longer a secret like it once was. There is no dress code, but I recommend looking a bit dapper for this one, as it has a charming esthetic. Although I am a bit of a frugal spender, the value of this place far exceeded my expectations and thus I feel it is justified in the pricing.

The cocktail game is A-1, no cap. On the hunt for a speakeasy in PR we stumbled upon this gem. The cocktails were very delicious and unique. The names are very clever and fun and the mixes were all intriguing. Tons of unique combinations of flavors. The interior is very dark and sexy. I recommend making a reservation as this saves headaches and time. I won't disclose how to find the spot because what's the fun in that lol. Enjoy the Hunt. The staff was very knowledgeable and the atmosphere inside is also very elegant and sexy. Next time I'm in PR I will make another visit. Definitely a date night spot and be prepared to pay for quality. Cocktails do range at $15 price tags but honestly you look.fir.these types of places to elevate your experience and sometimes that means digging a bit deeper into your pocket. Very much worth it.

I came back after almost a year from my original review and this bar and restaurant continuing to improving, their quality of drinks, food, security and customer services. During my last visit I saw a art exhibition from one of the bar's staff. It's by far one of my favorite's places. A unique bar, great environment, with nice decoration and outstanding customer service. It serve food with great taste and better variety of drinks. Enjoy with the company of your best friends and love one's.

Best food in Condado (and we tried many restaurants in the area) We went here twice and every single dish was excellent. We are vegetarian and loved the corn and pumpkin soups, the salad, the main veggie dish, and even a side of rice and beans. So good! The restaurant has three distinct floors, two of them outdoor with a beautiful breeze and oceanfront view. The staff were incredibly nice and kid friendly.

Oh. My. God. The food was amazing, everything we had. The seafood ceviche, the duck mofongo, the fish the drinks, I cannot express how much you will be sorry if you miss it. I suggest a reservation, the food is good and everyone knows. There is also amazing beach front seating on the patios! I would suggest this as a date restaurant, families go but I would not take kids. Its a very sexy place and the bar was amazing! Great, just great everything.

This place is a must if you are visiting San Juan! I want to say that the food was great but the service was AMAZING!! The staff were very attentive and professional. We ordered the calamari and ropa vieja for appetizers which were quickly bought out, they were tasteful and great portions. For entrees we both ordered the surf and turf which was the best steak and lobster I ever had, the lobster was fresh and steak cooked perfectly to my liking. Overall the experience was 5 stars, the cherry on top was the spectacular view.

The view is amazing. I think the food was fine, even good. It was just not as good as I expected. The drinks were over priced and small. And I thought that the plastic furniture was a miss. Don’t get me wrong, I still have it 4 stars. I just was not as impressed as my friends thought I would be. Staff - very friendly Space - plenty of room for a family Prices - on the high side Atmosphere - the view!

Featured Amanda · married on 01/24/2020 Juan Carlos is professional while personal and the food and view are perfect! Planning a 40-50 person wedding in San Juan is not easy if you're on a budget, but Oceano fit all of our needs. We started out looking at the hotels but felt the minium consumption was over the top for what you get. Oceano offered a spectacular view, privacy, and amazing food at a fair price. Negotiations and changes to our contract were all handled by Juan Carlos with the utmost professionalism. We were blown away by the tasting and on the wedding day, our guests raved about the food. The bartenders were on point with fast personal service. We had the pork carving station at our cocktail hour on the 3rd floor and the guests seriously would not stop talking about how delicious the pasta was. My husband's 85-year-old Abuela said the pork was on point, and she's a tough critic! With our 39 guests, Oceano's 2nd floor provided plenty of room for dancing and partying and we were not disturbed by any patrons and music volume was never an issue. Even if we'd had all our 50 guests RSVP I don't think it would have been too tight. The DJ was able to have music on both the 2nd and 3rd floors simultaneously. Do yourself a favor and have the white glove service! The staff at Oceano were so professional, none of my guests realized it was a buffet. The service was phenomenal. No guests waiting in lines or fumbling and spilling dinner on their dresses! Thank you so much Juan Carlos! We really had the best night ever dancing and partying all night with our family!

We were able to get an amazing ocean front table for two around 9pm, same day at Oceano. we were waited on my Gabrielle who was accommodating and thoughtful. The food was served warm (not very hot).

Scryer Rum Barrelhouse & Rooftop is a must-visit destination for rum enthusiasts in Puerto Rico. This craft rum distillery and cocktail bar, located at 259 Calle Tetuan, offers a unique experience that blends creative flair with a neighborhood vibe. The owners' resilience after Hurricane Maria is reflected in the establishment's ambiance and offerings. Visitors can enjoy small-batch, cask-seasoned rums while taking in stunning views of Old San Juan from the rooftop.
Great little place we ran into walking the streets of Old San Juan. They make their own Rum and have some excellent drinks. We met one of the founders, Derek, and had a great conversation with him about his background and our home. They are looking to expand into New York and I think they will do great there. I had the Claude and Sherry and Dark & Stormy which were both awesome and appropriate for walking back to our cruise ship.

As always, this is just my personal review. This place has its own style—if you're looking for a Mojito or other ordinary drinks, you’d better look elsewhere. Here, cocktails are for those who appreciate style and authenticity. They do have familiar drinks, but for the full experience, it's best to go for their signature cocktails. As for whether I’d come back—definitely yes! And if you have the time, visit the rooftop in the evening—it’s an unforgettable experience.

Nice place in the streets of old San Juan with a great Atmosphere, good stop if you need a break to get out of the sun with very detailed cocktail menu. Had the Claude and Sherry was clean with smooth finish with their rum. Should have tried on the rocks but was pressed for time but was happy with my choice.

Fantastic little spot in the middle of Old San Juan. Great and friendly bartenders and amazing tasting rum. Rooftop was spacious and even a bar upstairs too. Great vibes all around.

Their house rum was quite delicious. We had time to kill for a reservation so we came upon this place and so happy we did. Their prices atmosphere was relaxing. The staff were upbeat and service was fast. Their prices were more than fair. All Their all the rum we tried was seriously delicious. I definitely should have bought more bottles. Overall if you’re looking for a chill place to hang and sip tasty rum give them a chance.

A Hidden Gem in Puerto Rico! Scryer Rum is truly a hidden gem. Their house rum is absolutely delicious — smooth, rich, and unlike anything else I’ve tried. I’ve visited several whiskey distilleries across the U.S. and abroad, and this place easily ranks at the top of my list. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the passion behind their craft really shows in every detail. My only wish is that they could sell their rum directly on location, but beyond that, everything about the experience was outstanding. If you’re in Puerto Rico and enjoy spirits, this is a must-visit spot. Highly recommend!

San Juan truly knows how to do rum! Scryers was a great spot to just chill and have a few cocktails to wait out the hottest heat of the day!

Delicious rum that tastes more like bourbon. Fun location. Mixed drinks are quite pricey and their spin on a pina colada left much to be desired. I'd love to get the rum at home for sipping.

In my honest opinion Brava is one of the best clubs i have gone to in Puerto Rico. It has incredible DJs, a great atmosphere and those who work there (bartenders, hostesses, and security guards) are friendly and respectful. If you’re looking for a very packed day, full of locals, go on a thursday you wont be disappointed! Although it is a bit smaller than other clubs it has plenty of space to dance, sit and relax, and the guards make sure to not overly pack the place. I trully cant say one bad thing about the place. HIGHLY RECOMMEND you go!!

Such a cool place! Definitely felt and looked like a high-end club, like something you’d find in New York or Miami. The coco mojito I got was delicious and the crowd was all over the dance floor. The only thing is that it was a little too crowded to dance when I went, so I want to go back on a slightly less busy night just so that I have room to get out on the dance floor.

We traveled from NY for a birthday bought a section which could have been a lil bigger for the price but the hostesses were nice and pretty and make ya drinks strong,they definitely don't sell food or snacks so don't go there needed food in ya belly with ya liquor!! They don't really cater to the tourists in the crowd so if your looking for more music from home this is not the place if your a native then yes..they played 1 song we knew then 4 Spanish ones the half of a song we liked and more of there's so we ended up leaving a bit early then we would have liked it jus wasn't that enjoyable since we didn't really understand the music.We ended up finding a place so it wasn't a complete waste.

Mist Rooftop Bar+Kitchen in Puerto Rico has gained a strong reputation for serving the best Mofongo in Old San Juan. The lively restaurant and bar offers a relaxed atmosphere with a Miami vibe, making it an ideal spot to catch a beautiful sunset while enjoying cocktails and light bites. The multi-level rooftop bar boasts showstopping views over Playa Isla Verde, creating an astounding backdrop for visitors.
Great place to hang out while waiting for our room! Comfy lounge, great views, good food and very friendly staff. We had a rum cocktail while waiting for my rice and beans and plantain chips. It was comfort food, a perfect choice after a long flight. Ron picked a cheese quesadilla which was listed with melted cheese, he ate it all!

The view here is ASTOUNDING. Definitely 5/5 for the view. Since I came in the early afternoon on a weekday, I was able to find the best table with the best view and have the entire floor to myself for a couple hours. I was able to read a book with this million dollar view as the background. The food was a bit worse than mediocre, hence the 4/5 star rating. The menu is very underwhelming with mostly subs, burgers and fries, etc. Maybe the chef was trying not to distract the customers from the view? then he's definitely done a great job.

Very lovely rooftop patio and bar! Really good food at a cost that is comparable to any restaurant nearby, except with a killer view! Seating indoor and outdoor but with cover, in case it rains. Staff are very polite, well spoken and quick to help with any needs you have. The only downfall was food takes a while to get out to you, averaging 30 minutes (and no vegetarian options except “sides”.) Right on the beach so you can enjoy your well poured drink overlooking the beach, or city. Definitely recommend for all ages and you don’t need to be a hotel guest to visit this place!

I was very excited to eat and have a drink here, however I'm going to say that the view at night from the side of the restaurant we were on was non existent.

El Bar Bero is a unique and creative establishment that transforms from a barbershop by day to a lively mixologist haven by night. The themed decor includes vintage barber chairs, black-and-white checkerboard floors, and chandeliers adorned with shaving brushes. The atmosphere is described as welcoming and friendly, with bartenders who take pride in their craft.
Jose is the man! A true mixologist and master of his craft. All of the cocktails I had were incredible. Easily the best cocktail bar in the Condado area. Even when out of ingredients (which happens in PR) he was able to make me a Black Manhattan which was delicious. Other personal recommendations include Gentleman's Cut, Barrilito Smoked Old Fashioned, Tiki Man(hattan), El Barbero Viejo, and El Bigote de Luigi (extremely refreshing - even as a non-gin person). . Ask about the history of the items here, this place is a true treasure!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting this cool vibe bar in the Conado area, and it exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment I walked to the front door, they invited me in, even though they weren't open yet. i I was captivated by the stylish decor and the welcoming atmosphere. The dimly lit interior, coupled with a well-curated playlist, created the perfect ambiance for a night out. The bar staff was not only attentive but also incredibly knowledgeable about their extensive cocktail menu. I tried their signature drinks, and each one was a delightful blend of flavors and presentation. What truly set this bar apart was the music. The diverse crowd made for an engaging and fun experience, and I met some interesting people throughout the evening. Overall, I can't recommend this cool vibe bar enough. Whether you're looking for a romantic date spot or a place to hang out with friends, it offers an unforgettable experience. I can't wait to go back and enjoy the cool vibes, drinks, and music all over again.

Amazing cocktails, atmosphere, and service! The actual barber chairs are a fun detail. The bartender is a true artist and there is a huge variety of cocktail options on the menu.

We've been wanting a cozy, low key neighborhood bar with decent bar food and can't believe we only just found El Bar Bero! I loved the eclectic, vintage barbershop (bero) decor, good lighting & music- but the drink options were what really impressed. They had all the best "original" cocktails- I had the moscow mule & my husband the house manhattan- along with your traditional island drinks, and they were all expertly made. The bar is really the main attraction of the room, and for good reason- the drinks are perfect! While this isn't a restaurant (so don't expect a server/ you go to the bar to order) they do serve a few food items and again, exceeded our expectations. The fish tacos were delicious and the chicken/sausage sliders- something the door man recommended- were not only tasty but really original. The bill was like $40- which is hard to beat...! We're super excited to have this great local option so close to home!!! . (Broc did have an issue with there not being soap in the men's bathroom, but I'm still giving 5 stars (the women's did!) bc I doubt that's the norm...)

Thanks! & will be visiting again my next time in San Juan! :-)

Gabriel was amazing!!! The best server ever! Made us feel insane welcome and warm! Made us coffee in the end, highly recommend the experience with him. Host (Lesly) was very rude, told us to look to another place to have a dinner and she couldn’t sit us because the place was full, but it wasn’t but I insisted and asked another server to talk to the manager and he did a good job sitting us, he was very nice!

10/10 dining experience. Sat at the bar with my husband to celebrate our first anniversary. Lucky for us, they had our favorite wine on their wine list so we started the night with a bottle. Our dishes arrived in a steady manner, and everything we ate was incredible. Service was spectacular, and we were very well attended to.

Santaella was hands down the best dining experience we had in San Juan. Every dish was bursting with flavor and presented magnificently, the cocktails were delicious and balanced, and the service was warm, attentive, and genuine. The atmosphere is vibrant yet intimate, making it feel special without being stuffy. Yes, it’s pricier than most spots in San Juan, but the quality easily matches Michelin-level restaurants in NYC. Absolutely worth every penny and HIGHLY recommended!

Finally was able to make a reservation this past Saturday. We were sat immediately and Julian was our server. We started with drinks. My brother had the Paper Plane which he enjoyed and I had the Tamarind Margarita. We ordered half the menu and the standouts were the shrimp bao buns, jamon croquetas, goat cheese truffle honey quesadilla for appetizers. The entrees also met our expectations. My shrimp trifongo was creamy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. My hubby's NY strip steak was cooked to temperature and my brother said his fried chillo was the best he's ever had. The vibe when we entered (about 7pm)was weird since they were playing like elevator music but towards the end closer to 9pm they started playing house music. Was hoping they would dim the lights a little as the night progressed but it remained very bright in the dining room. Aside from that minor grievance, we had a very positive experience. Thank you Santaella.

So reservations were made for 5 ppl at 10:30PM but seems like they don’t have a time limit on how long people can spend on a table simple because and we spent over 25-30 mins waiting on a table…. At the beginning the experience was not it honestly, especially when you are hungry and the last reservation of the night. So it started off rocky and then when seated certain food items were not available, I really wanted to be optimistic and really give them a chance sooo here it goes… what made it special was a couple of things its right next to La placita, very busy yet fun to go fine dining and party afterwards. However, for me was ambience it was busy but the jazz music really gives the vibes a flow. Even though certain food were not available the waiters provide us with other options to select of seafood, appetizers, red meat. The Chorizo empanadilla delicious, filled with chorizo and maduro. The GOAT quesadilla was what won my heart, so delicious and flavorful with goat cheese over arugula, drizzled writhing a sweet syrup yummy. Popcorn chicken with a sweet curry was good too. But after being told the pastel on was no longer available the chef decided to make us one from scratch and let me tell you IT DID NOT Disappoint! It was delicious, the maduros were smashed in perfect texture, ugh reminds my oh my grandmas pastel on. Let just say it made the beginning of the experience forgetting. The Service very friendly and on top. Even though we did catch a dish that was a bit dirty but that didn’t stop us from getting drinks, which were great and strong.

A bit disappointed. I feel this place is overrated. Nice location, good ambiance, but the food was just OK. Probably good for drinks and meeting people, but from a food quality perspective, I've been in other places in this town that in my opinion are much better for the price you pay. Service was cordial but a bit slow. We got couple of appetizers and one main dish to share but it took almost 2hrs to go through it. Only highlight of the night was the Goat Cheese Quesadilla, flavorful and the White Truffle oil gave it a good dimension. The popcorn chicken was ok, but won't be memorable. And we felt the Lacón Asado (Braised Pork) was too dry, and the caramelized part was not enough to balance it. It felt like a holiday dish that needed a cherry compote, or a cranberry sauce to complement it. For dessert they didn't have the Baked Alaska but we got an alternative Caramel Cake with flambeed meringue, but unfortunately it was extremely sweet. Desserts need a balance too.

The food and drinks were an absolute 10/10. Very unique flavors that work amazing together. Highly recommend the calamari appetizer and pork belly entree! Unfortunately, we did not have the best service during our dinner. Our server was not very attentive to take our orders and it took almost an hour for our entrees. I had told the host that it is my partner’s birthday and if they did something. He said he would tell our server and they brought out whipped cream in a ramekin with a candle…for the price and class of the restaurant - I expected so much better. I would have no problem paying for dessert if they had told me we had to get something.

We got reservations for Santaella because we heard it was supposed to be amazing. Upon arrival we realized they gave us reservations for Azeteo even though the reservation clearly showed Santaella, which is still the same owners but their menu is significantly different with way less options. We ordered a good amount of food and it tasted good. The portions were small and the prices were on average for higher end food. Overall the meal was fine we were just looking forward to the Santaella menu!

I recently dined at Di Zucchero and I have mixed feelings about the experience. To start, the orange juice was a disappointment as it tasted watered down, lacking that refreshing burst of flavor one typically expects. The pancakes were another letdown; they were hollow and flavorless, failing to impress. The French toast was great and the Espresso Martini was delicious. On a positive note, the eggs cooked over medium were done perfectly – just the right amount of runniness! My sister ordered pizza, and it was fantastic; it had a great taste and was definitely a highlight of our meal. Overall, while there were some enjoyable aspects to the meal, there is room for improvement in other areas. I hope to see these changes implemented in the future.

I love a good New York style pizza, but sadly, this wasn't it. Meh.

Only reason a have it a 4 out of 5 it's because of the types of tables provided. It's more of a lounge place but makes it difficult to eat the food that way. Other than that? This is one of the most romantic places I have ever been. The staff? Crazily kind and hospitable and great in service. Very knowledgeable with any questions regarding their menu in drinks or food. They can do certain accommodations as well wt the menu. My favorite was the Thai Ceviche. I could eat like 8 dishes of that. And the drinks? Never seen anything more creative, delicious or beautiful. The drink Salitre was the most beautifully served imo but all of them are perfectly served.

La Plaza del Mercado de Santurce is a vibrant outdoor plaza in San Juan that transforms from a daytime farmer's market to a lively food and entertainment hub at night. During the day, it offers an array of fresh fruits for sale, creating a colorful and bustling atmosphere. At night, the marketplace comes alive with restaurants, bars, live music, and dancing.
An iconic place to visit when in Puerto Rico. On the weekends this place becomes an outdoor club. Tons of people visit to hear music, dance, eat and drink. They have various restaurants and bars to keep you happy. It is an awesome vibe. Plenty of lights, neon, and music. Parking is tough but they have various parking lots in the area. Drinks are cheap and the food is good.

If you go during the day, bars and many of the reastraunts are closed. There will be a market open with many fruits and vegetables. In the evening, every bar is pumping out music, and the tables are being used at most restaurants. You will find bands playing outside or karaoke. The real party doesn't even start until around 10 pm.

Amazing fresh and ripe fruits! They were SO GOOD and SO CHEAP! They’ll cut the fruits for you! The farmers market closes at 5pm but will turn into a fun night life around 8pm!

Great spot for fresh fruits and vegetables—they even offer to cut up the fruit for you! We had been searching for roadside fruit stands throughout our trip but couldn’t find any. Glad we got to enjoy some sweet papayas and mangoes from here! Price was great and can pay with card or cash.

Although I wasn't able to experience La Placita during the day and enjoy the variety of fresh fruits typically available, I did have the opportunity to explore its vibrant nightlife. The area comes alive after dark, with numerous bars offering a range of music genres to suit diverse tastes. One of the highlights was watching people dance classic salsa in the streets—a lively and culturally rich display that added to the area's dynamic atmosphere. I loved it!

Bar Catedral Rooftop in Old San Juan offers a perfect escape from the bustling streets, providing an ideal spot to unwind and enjoy breathtaking views of the city skyline and the Atlantic Ocean. The rooftop bar boasts superb cocktails, delectable tapas, and a welcoming staff. It's an excellent choice for those seeking a relaxing atmosphere and top-notch service.
While visiting San Juan we found that at a lot of places the service was really slow and sometimes rude- but here the staff was so kind and attentive. The drinks were so good! We intended to just go for one before dinner but ended up staying for another. The watermelon gimlet and espresso martini were 10/10

This rooftop bar offered a beautiful view—nothing over-the-top, but still a lovely and relaxing atmosphere. The drinks were well-crafted, and the appetizers we tried were absolutely delicious. I wish I could remember the names of the drinks and the appetizer, but hopefully the photos speak for themselves. Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a nice spot to unwind with good food and drinks.

We got there exactly at 4pm. Food was great, servers were great. The (what I believe was the-) manager definitely *not* great. From the start she had an attitude. At the end of the dinner we kindly asked the server for the bill to be split by items and she came to the table, aggressively took the machine from the server’s hands, asked me what it was I wanted (with attitude) as if it were a problem, and I (a person that has been a server and I know how the machine works) know it’s not a problem to split a bill, even though it looked like it was to her. It’s a shame, because everything else was good, the servers did an amazing job and pleased our requests.

Cool cocktail bar away from the clubbing scene. The historic building used to be a soda factory. We stopped in for one drink as we waited for a dinner table elsewhere... but wished we could have tried more. The La Piquiña was especially inventive, with a smokiness and texture from the dark chocolate garnish, and waves of flavor from the fat wash and plantain bitters. We also had the Not So Mai-Tai that had a beautifully crafted amaretto foam pairing with a tart (but not overly so) pineapple.

Frankie was amazing! She greeted us immediately, told us all about the drinks and menu and recommended things based on what we told her we liked, and she was spot on. We asked her for recommendations for going out after and she helped us out with that too. She was incredible, we’ll be visiting her again. The food and drinks were great, and we loved the decor. 10/10.

A Life-Changing Drink in Old San Juan! ​Antiguo is more than just a bar; it's an experience. We stopped in for drinks and were immediately captivated by the atmosphere. The whole vibe of Old San Juan is incredibly stylish, and sitting in this beautiful establishment, my ex-wife wife and I had a revelation. We realized we'd gotten a little too comfortable in our casual attire. Inspired by our surroundings, we made a pact right then and there to elevate our style—and I haven't worn a t-shirt in public since! ​While we didn't have a chance to try the food, the drinks were amazing and expertly crafted. For its incredible ambiance, fantastic cocktails, and for providing the backdrop to a memorable life moment, Antiguo is a must-visit.

The Ritz-Carlton, San Juan is a luxurious beachfront resort located in the Isla Verde neighborhood of Puerto Rico. The hotel offers upscale accommodations, five restaurants, a casino, and a spa. It also features the Ritz Kids program with activities designed for children aged five through 12. The resort's elegant design seamlessly blends into its pristine beach surroundings, offering guests access to tranquil aquamarine waters and a coral reef offshore.
I really hope this place reopens. I went in 2017 and was one of the best trips. Also my favorite birthday breakfast ever (and I’ve been to many places on my birthday). I’ve been to PR since and hotel was okay but not the experience I had here!

My best friend and I always stay at The Ritz Carlton at Isla Verde. The staff is so ready to accommodate you and treat you like royalty. The rooms are very clean and the housekeeping staff is quick with any request you have. The pool staff are ready to bring you whatever you order quickly. I was very sad when Hurricane Maria destroyed the hotel totally and it took them some years before they rebuilt it to perfection. Although there is a pandemic still in progress, I'd love to make plans to visit Puerto Rico and stay at my favorite hotel once again.❤

The Ritz Carlton in carolina PR.. Is a very BEAUTIFUL hotel. Me and my family enjoyed our stay. The entire Staff was wonderful. They made you feel welcomed. I loved that the pool is open 24hrs. That made the end of the day relaxing. Because as we were out an about sight seeing all day, we had maybe an hour or 2 to be on the beach,as it closed at 8pm, and my husband an son felt like they needed more swim time so we went to the pool. I enjoyed the BEAUTY of the view of the hotel at night. I would and have already highly recommend this hotel. I hope to be able to stay here again some day.

Jafriel at the valet was quick, friendly, and super easygoing. Everything was smooth and hassle-free whenever we needed the car, and he made sure we were always taken care of. Mike was excellent—room service was fast, everything came perfectly as ordered, and he was so professional and friendly. It made the whole experience that much better! Sheila was the absolute BEST! She took care of us at the beachside all day and always checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. Her warm, attentive care truly stood out! Overall, the staff here went above and beyond and made our stay unforgettable.

Room needed work completed & cleaning better., dirty carpets upon arrive,, crumbs around entrance to carpeted area, bed, & lounging chair. Broken wooden door bases splintering off., light bulbs didn't work & were filthy dirty with dust. Dusty window shades when closing. You created a small dust storm, & no microwave in the room. Hallways always had trash in them & items a vacuum would've picked-uo of used. The beech & pool access & environment were great. Staff were friendly. Beach ordering service would have been nice. I saw it occur 1 time & had no idea where they cane from or how to contact them. Even just a drink person taking orders on the beach. Beach attendant might cary your towels & set up your umbrella & chairs or maybe not. 2 out of 5 times they assisted. All staff were polite, friendly & helpful when you engaged them.

Found this place by a Google search of highly rated bars. It is an upscale cigar bar with an elevated cocktail menu. It was the middle of the afternoon, so it was kind of empty when I went, but they apparently have live jazz on Thursday nights. I would have enjoyed that. The drinks were delicious and well made. Nothing here is cheap, but this was a worthwhile indulgence for those who want to escape the casual masses. Be prepared to pay a minimum charge per person for drinks and cigars.

Had a valentine's day reservation and the place was very full. We waited outside for our table like 35 minutes despite having an 8 pm reservation booked and paid for. Despite the long wait time, the ambiance inside was beautiful and the music was great. Service was a little slow, but again, the place was packed. The valentine's menu was delicious, although the portions were pretty small, but I personally didn't mind that. Although we waited a long time to go into the establishment, the owner gave us complimentary drinks on the house and an additional dessert at the end of our meal. Overall pretty good, would come back again.

We had the absolute best time here. The place is so gorgeous and comfy but ornate at the same time. Each table feels intimate making it easy to catch up with your loved ones. The food was to die for. We had 7 people so we literally ordered at least one of everything and there was not a bite of food left on any plate. I loved the fried Bao Buns and the Croquettes were amazing. Each drink was made with love and care and I definitely enjoyed all of them. The Tea for 2 was incredible. Honestly I will recommend this place to anyone coming to San Juan. I will be back!

it was hard to get the servers attention during my entire duration, despite it being early in the night. I ordered the bow and well the filling was decently. Tasty crust tasted cheap and greasy certainly not worth its price. in the end for one drink one small dish and water I paid the same price as I would pay in a place in New York City and as someone who is from there did not understand how this came to be.

The Cannon Club - Restaurant & Piano Bar, located within the Gallery Inn Hotel in Old San Juan, is a hidden gem that has left visitors in awe. The bar features a tiny front room with a piano area to the side and an enchanting outdoor garden adorned with plants, small streams, and hand-carved stone statues. This stylish and sophisticated haven for music enthusiasts offers regular live performances by talented musicians on Steinway pianos under elegant Venetian chandeliers.
We chose this place to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary. We made a reservation one day in advance, but couldn’t find a table for 7 or 8 PM — we barely got one for 6 PM. So if you're planning to visit, I highly recommend making a reservation at least a week ahead. The food was high quality and delicious. The atmosphere was a perfect 10/10, and the live music made the experience even more special. If you're looking for something unique, I strongly recommend this place — it was a wonderful experience for us. However, the prices were on the expensive side. I expected them to be a bit lower than Miami prices, but they weren’t. Keep that in mind before you go. Still, overall, it’s a place I would recommend.

We had a Sunday night reservation at 8:30 PM, but unfortunately the table wasn’t ready and we had to wait an additional 30 minutes to be seated. The space itself is undeniably beautiful — dimly lit, elegant, and centered around a live grand piano performance that added a calm, sophisticated touch to the evening. Note: there’s a $10 cover charge after a certain time, which is good to know upfront. 🍽️ Food & Drinks Our food came out quickly once we finally ordered. The steak was decent — nothing special, but well-cooked. I had been really looking forward to trying the paella, but was disappointed to hear they were out of it for the night. It definitely left a gap in the experience since it was one of their highlight dishes. 👨‍🍳 Service & Hospitality Service was the biggest miss. Our assigned server was largely absent, and we often had to flag down other staff just to move the evening along — from ordering to refills to the check. For a place that carries such a refined and intimate atmosphere, the lack of attentiveness was noticeable and frustrating. 💡 Unique Selling Point The live piano and ambiance are truly standout — this is the kind of place you’d come to unwind and enjoy music in a classy setting.

The Canon Club in Old San Juan is one of our favorite intimate experiences we had in Puerto Rico. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was inviting and full of energy. The highlight was definitely the piano room with live music, beautiful performances, and a cozy, intimate setting that made the night feel really special. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to stay for hours just soaking it all in. Our waiter was our favorite!!! She was so friendly, attentive, and really made us feel welcome. It’s rare to have service that stands out this much, but she really went above and beyond to make sure our group had a wonderful time. The food and drinks were good as well. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and paired perfectly with the lively setting. We all got a variety of different things, and the flan at the end was sooooo yummy. A quick tip for anyone planning to visit: make a reservation for the piano room ahead of time. It fills up quickly depending on the day, and there’s a $10 per person charge for dining there, but it’s absolutely worth it.

Awesome experience. Reserved a spot on a Saturday night in the piano area an was able to watch and listen to the live music being performed while enjoying my fantastic dinner with my gf. The place is beautiful, vintage, rustic and overall just An amazing sight to see with great drinks and food. Would reccomend this place every time!

YEP there’s a cool trio playing live music on a Saturday night 🎹🎼 but very tough to get seats in the small room unless u have reservations. So we sat at the bar and enjoyed the cool vibe/atmosphere. The Bartenders were cranking out cocktails 🍸🍹🍺. The lively place has lots of history to share so if u can get in, it’s worth a visit!

Outstanding Service & Amazing Food at The Cannon Club in Old San Juan I had an incredible dinner at The Cannon Club in the heart of historical Old San Juan. I ordered the lobster ravioli and toasted coconut shrimp and both were absolutely delicious! As a coffee lover, I also tried their coffee with coconut milk and I loved it. ☕️🥥 What truly made the experience unforgettable was our waitress, Yesenia. Her service was top-notch, friendly, and full of positive energy. My friends and I adored her attention to detail and warm personality. If you go, make sure to ask for Yesenia, she truly makes the difference and turns a great meal into an exceptional experience. Highly recommend! 🌟

One of the best culinary experiences of my life. Chef Ciarán is a magician and every person that works there is just incredible! Do not miss the opportunity to go to this magnificent culinary gem! 1st course : lobster roll, homemade brioche with caviar and a tart with cream, cured egg, and truffle. 2nd: tuna crudo 3rd: house made sourdough, whipped ricotta with olive oil, prosciutto, and candied walnuts 4th: pasta with conch and spicy tomato sauce with fresh Parmesan 5th: porchetta with black beans 6th: pineapple upside down cake and coconut trifle with mango 7th: chocolate and hazelnut ice cream sandwich

Pio Pio is a very cute coursed hole in the wall restaurant in the middle of Old San Juan. The chef is a cute Irish gentleman with a terrific Puerto Rican inspired menu. Highly recommend the Con Coco cocktail, which is basically an old fashion with coconut flavoring. The meal started with a cream tart, lobster roll, and a crudo. I especially liked the creaminess of the lobster roll. Following that was a swordfish tortellini — I’ve not had a fish tortellini before and I was pleasantly surprised at the texture and flavor! Easily my favorite with at the restaurant. It was magical to see the staff make the tortellinis in front of us. We liked the lamb and dessert as well. But the real star after the tortellini was the Irish coffee with an ice cream sandwich. Beautifully sweet but not overpoweringly so. Great vibe and a family feeling amongst the staff, they definitely are passionate about what they do! Do note that the meal will get into the $300s for two, so if that’s not your cup of tea then be warned.

This is one of the top 5 meals of my life! Such an intimate setting, you get to talk to the chef’s and watch them create the amazing cuisines. I would highly recommend the tasting menu. On top of the food, had the best champagne and white wine I have ever had. As not a huge wine person I would have finished both bottles if I want so full from all the amazing food.

I ordered the tasting menu expecting individual servings, but what we received were shared plates for two people something that was never explained to us when ordering. While that lack of communication threw us off, I have to say the food itself was amazing. The pasta was absolutely delicious, and the lamb was incredibly tasty. Despite the confusion, I’m happy to give them a second try.

Pio Pio completely turned our night around after a disappointing experience at a restaurant nearby! The food was absolutely top notch. There were multiple times when we stopped to note that we had never tasted anything like the dishes we had at Pio Pio. The drinks were excellent too. The cocktail list was very unique and creative. Lots of interesting clarified cocktails. The drinks themselves were so good we ended up getting multiple rounds. We could tell that the owners and staff cared a lot about what they were doing, and this shined through our every experience there. Pio Pio made me want to move to San Juan permanently. 10/10, A+, 🔥

This was a really fun tasting experience - creative big swings that all landed with us. The wine paring was pretty good too, call it an A-. We're glad we did it even if it wasn't life changing. And I hope everyone gets to try the "Puerto Rican Moonshine" (Pitorro?) at the end - definitely a special finish! My only very minor critique is that they do the check via POS terminal brought to your table while they wait. Maybe I'm just old-fashioned, but it just feels a little fast casual for an otherwise higher end dining experience.

Above average service quality and decent food at regular prices. I’d go again. The ‘sancochito’ was not hot, it was lukewarm, however it had all the right flavors. Mofongo was bland and greasy, carne frita was cut too small and it was dry. Overall a decent eatery albeit the few mistakes. The mampostiao was very good. The ribeye was too thin for my taste.

Cocktails are high-quality and affordable. We had one each with each cocktail less than $15 and the bar only about half full. In fact, we wanted to order more drinks, but the blonde male bartender was too busy flirting with two women patrons at the bar counter. After waiting about 25 minutes (yes, we timed it), we decided to ditch ordering more drinks and instead ask for the check. Would go back if the bartender better balanced his time.

Found this place online. Did not disappoint! When we arrived we were immediately drawn in by the unique ambiance of the bar. Got to try Fianl minutoll - orange wine for the first time. It was so delicious, perfect combo of sweet and dry. Tasted similar to white but with a different twist, being light and refreshing. We chose the focaccia appetizer which was delightful. Only critique we had is wishing there was an element of sweetness to the dip but the fluffy, flavor packed bread made up for this. Following this, was the gnocchi. It was the smoothest, richest, I’ve ever had. Like pillows that melt in your mouth. Possibly even better than ones I’ve had in Italy. Overall pleasant experience, would recommend trying while visiting and in great location of old San Juan, with lots to do nearby!!!

When I walked by I saw the crowd and decided to check it out due to the ambiance, and people watching opportunities ;) The doorman was super kind, and the facade of the building reminded me of the bougie bars in Venice Beach, California. Once inside we had three beers and a cocktail which was less than $20. Such great prices! Music was awesome, and the atmosphere was welcoming. Would gladly come again. It’s probably one of the few spots that’s opened past 10:00pm. We left around 1:00am. Great time! Would definitely be back.

Cocktail bar
La Barrita del Lado is a vibrant spot located in the heart of San Juan's newest entertainment venue, Distrito T-Mobile. It offers an array of artisan cocktails crafted by talented mixologists, featuring local rum libations and tropical twists on classic drinks like the Parada 10 Collins and Mojito del Lado. Guests can enjoy people-watching and catch projections on giant screens while sipping on signature cocktails.
If you are looking for a a place with good atmosphere, food and great customer service this is the place. I can highlight the service of the bartender Kristian 🍸 10/10- My Expresso Martini was amazing ☕️. Definitely recommended!.

During our brief wait to be seated, we decided to partake in refreshments at the bar. Our bartender, Marcos, demonstrated exceptional courtesy and went the extra mile to cater to my colleague's preferences. The beverages we sampled were of a delectable nature. We shall undoubtedly revisit this establishment in the future.

I don’t usually go to Distrito but when I do, La Barrita del Lado is always a must. Went for a couple of drinks after a concert and our bartender Christian went above and beyond with his hospitality, even creating a drink (chocolate martini) for us. The tapas are to die for. I tried the dates with bacon. Amazing! When you come, ask for Christian Gonzalez and you’ll have the best time.

Thank you Christian Gonzales! We stumbled on this bar venturing to T mobile district and the service was amazing! Our bartender was very attentive and gave honest suggestions on drinks while making us feel extremely welcomed and comfortable. Can’t wait to come visit on our next Puerto Rico adventure:)

Christian Gonzalez best Bartender in distrito. Need drinks go see him.
Carlos C — Google review
Do yourself a favor and don’t order a drink from here. My drink was missing half of the ingredients it was supposed to have in it and when I asked why there wasn’t basil in it the bartender didn’t even know what basil was. He then googled it then showed the other bartender and they both said they didn’t have it. That would have been great to know when I order the drink. The bartender seemed clueless the entire time and both of our drinks were terrible and service was terrible.

This was my first time visiting T-Mobile District. Christian Gonzalez was the person who served me. Best service I’ve ever received. I would highly recommend this place. Good environment and the coworkers over here are very friendly and helpful.

Bar
Bar.C.Lona Rooftop is situated atop the AC Hotel San Juan Condado, offering a blend of delectable tapas and stunning vistas. The rooftop terrace boasts a chic Mediterranean ambiance with white decor, comfortable lounge seating, and lush greenery. Guests can enjoy panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and the sophisticated Condado neighborhood. The menu features an array of flavorful tapas, Spanish wines, local beers, and handcrafted cocktails.
The pionono empanadas are a spin off from a popular Puerto Rican staple dipped in their signature mayo ketchup sauce were a crowd pleaser. The diced tuna over wonton chips drizzled in Asian sweet sauce mixed with wasabi had the perfect blend of flavors, the waitress was very attentive and pleasant. Ambiance and vibe was nice. They also have a bar and outside seating overlooking the city. Highly recommend!

Good service and food options all thought they’re pricey with drinks and food. You do have a good view and service is very attentive. Good to relax after coming from a long day of work. You do get a $45 credit if you stay at their hotel.
Diego — Google review
I was pleasantly surprised with my rooftop experience, despite reviews. I had seen the negative reviews, but wanted to try it out for myself. I was able to sit on the rooftop terrace, with great views of the sunset, good food, good drinks, and good service. It’s not cheap, but I enjoyed the experience. Try it out, especially if you’re staying in the hotel.
Matthew V — Google review
This is the rooftop of the AC Marriott Hotel Condado. Went here for dinner the evening we arrived San Juan. The attitudes are awful and the ambiance is low mood. Had to ask for dining server at bar and the response was uninterested. The dining area Server lady was even worse. We left and loss a $65 voucher to eat there; life is too short to put up with these attitudes. Avoid it for dinner. Went two days later for our daily free breakfast; nicer attitudes but poor breakfast. We had breakfast elsewhere every day.
Rafael S — Google review
Coffee at 9pm topped with a mint garnish and roasted beans never tasted so good before. The difference is this one is spiked with flavors of vodka and a hint of awesomeness. No creamer needed in this coffee. Starbucks needs to learn to make these.
Tatiana C — Google review
This place is beautifully decorated, with a charming ambiance by the pool that adds to its appeal. However, the food was underwhelming, very limited options available. The cocktails were just okay. Went for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It could do so much better.
Valentina A — Google review
The bartender was very kind and helpful but he was overworked and didn't have enough support. Good place for a quick drink if you're staying at the hotel.
Jake T — Google review
Do not eat here. When you check in to the AC Marriott they give you a credit to restaurant to lure you in. It was awful. I ordered the seafood stew, and it was the worst I’ve ever had. It was $45. I wouldn’t have paid $10 for it if I had known. Tasted like everything in it was freezer burned and thawed and thrown in. 80% of what came on the charcuterie was second class at best ($35 price). Do not waste your time or money here. Our meal came to a whopping $166 not including tip. It was a huge waste. So disappointed. UPDATE - when i returned home, i have looked on my bank statement to see that I was charged $243 for this meal. The cost of the meal was $166, and I begrudgingly left a $30 tip for a total of $196. But my account was debited $243. I will attempt to call but who has time to do this? This place is HORRIBLE!
