The drinks were so good we ordered doubles. The food was so good it started as 2 to taste and rolled into 4 as well. The ambiance was dark and moody but also comfy. The waitress was really sweet as well. Drinks and apps were absolutely phenomenal. I will definitely be back next trip!

AMBIANCE You're in the city so it's an eventful area. There's street parking and nearby lots but your best to carpool or rideshare. As for the vibes, I'm told in the daytime it's a local marketplace that's filled with vendors and other fresh produce booths. It's pretty chill with a nice neighborhood feel. As for the evening, this is where to turn up and get a pulse of Puerto Rico parties. EXPERIENCE Go to your bar, pick your vibe from community, club excessive, lounge feel, live music or etc. Drink choices rangeThey have it here! Plenty of photo op spots and good energy. I was here peak of the #DTMF era so it was magical to see people come together with a speaker and a cowbell. A local put into perspective how this was way better than paying for an expensive hotel party. It was truly a 1 of 1 experience. TL;DR OVERALL 5 Stars. It doesn't get any better. There's a reason why this space is dropped in lyrics and people's recommendations because this is the heart of the people. So don't be shy! Grab a drink, walk around, catch a dance, and be safe! TIPS: * Don't just settle for one spot. Be sure to explore around to experience the entire Santurce experience!

I guess this was purposefully done as I've heard it's nuts here on Fridays & Saturdays.

A lot of tourists come to Puerto Rico and are extremely inconsiderate of the culture, their spaces, and are completely ignorant of the history surrounding the Island. It's really tone deaf to leave those types of reviews and if you don't like it, just simply don't return. I personally loved the vibes here so much. Came here after pride and the music by Tayshayra was amazing. Drinks were super delicious and the bartender had a heavy pour. Chef's kiss!! I found the environment very inclusive and inspiring.

You won't get that in the tourist areas. I went on a Friday night and there were people everywhere. On the sidewalk and on the streets. I don't even know how cars managed to make it through, there were so many people. There was loud music but I don't remember if it was coming from this club or the open air club across the street... It all bleeds together after a while. This spot is less of a club and more of a local hangout spot. Not really much dancing going on... Just drinking, talking, laughing, and catching up with friends. Not quite a "chill" vibe, but much more chill than some of the surrounding venues. Perfect for enjoying a few beers or cocktails, people watching, and unwinding after a long week, or a long flight.
