We wanted to try this new place and opted to go for a dinner date. The space is pretty casual and spacious. The drinks were well balanced and promptly served. We decided to try three of the appetizers. The blood sausage in phyllo pastry was a bit dry yet flavorful. We also had the lobster arancini and was really pleasurable. The pastel was delicious. All of them were nicely served and the portions are good-sized. As main course we shared lamb chops perfectly cooked yet the risotto lacked flavor. We enjoyed a nice Ribera del Duero wine that paired divine with the flavors of our different dishes. Service was excellent. A nice little gem in Santurce. Highly recommended.

Definitely one of the top culinary offers in this developing neighborhood between Santurce and Miramar. The Fish was absolutely delicious, the Porkbelly, Pastas, Octopus were top choices! Best appetizers were the Sliders, Serrano Ham Coquettes and the Lobster Arancini. The Pan de Elote dessert is one of the best desserts I’ve ever tasted in my life. A must stop place in Santurce!

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.
