    Second floor overlooks the court of old San Juan. We got a beautiful view and entertainment from the live band. Food was ok. Good for big groups.

    Great location but not for service or food. Drinks were good but food order took over 40 minutes with hardly a crowd in the restaurant. Saw another group unhappy with their lack of service and food leave. Decided to cash out and the waiter was like ok thanks and sorry the kitchen is backed up. However, no evidence of food or smell of food anywhere.
