Aalyah, thank you so much for making our last meal in San Juan so special!! The portions are huge! I split an app with 3 people and honestly the main dishes can be split among two people as well.

For my last night in Puerto Rico, I wanted to go all out, and I ended up somewhere pretty special…read more Casita Miramar sits in a gorgeous old villa in the Miramar neighborhood, all hanging plants, twinkle lights, and vintage furniture, and the décor and ambiance alone had me sold before the food even showed up. I sat at the bar, and the staff absolutely made the night. Insanely nice and receptive, they talked with me the entire time, made recommendations, walked me through the dishes and the culture behind them, and kept the strong drinks coming, which I will never complain about. That kind of hospitality is rare and I can't say enough about it. Now for my one nitpick, and this is a me problem more than a them problem: I don't totally love Puerto Rican food. This is authentic comida criolla, which pulls from Caribbean, Latin American, and Spanish influences all at once, and my picky palate keeps asking what exactly it's trying to be. But the vibes, the people, and the setting made the whole experience more than worth it. Come for the criollo cooking, stay for one of the warmest rooms in San Juan.

This is one of the best Spanish restaurants in San Juan. I really like their braised meats and…read moresauces. The appetizers are also delicious. My favorites are the octopus, croquetas de bacalao, and the corned beef alcapurrias. They also make the best flan de manchego (manchego cheese custard). I've heard the fideua is also excellent. Unfortunately, they were out of it last time we went. I instead went with the chuletillas de cordero. They were good but dry. It felt like I was eating carne frita. My husband's Iberian Pork Osobuco was awesome. Love those braised meats. The restaurant has undergone a nice makeover. New rug, new paintjob. Lots of colorful paintings on the wall.This is a nice place for a date. It is also kid friendly. The chef/owner is very nice. He is always on the floor greeting customers and taking their orders. Service is overall good, but there aren't many servers so it can get slow at times. Overall, this is a great restaurant. It can can cold so bring a jacket or sweater.

I visited Basilisa while on a weeklong trip with a few friends, and we randomly stumbled upon Basilisa in our Google / Yelp hunt our first evening in town. We came in with a fairly large group (~15 people), but they did a phenomenal job accommodating us. We were seated at a large table in the back of the restaurant, where we had a great view of the rest of the place while still being a bit cordoned off from the rest of the guests. With our server's guidance, we got a few bottles of wine (mostly red, a few whites) and a variety of tapas -- effectively the entire menu. Every single plate was incredible, but a few of my favorites included the croquetas, tortilla espagnola, patatas bravas, and paella de mariscos. The croquetas and patatas were delightfully crispy on the outside with a soft interior that just melted in your mouth (either because it was literally melted cheese or the softest, most tender potato), and the tortilla espagnola and paella were both incredibly flavorful.

We were a large group, so there was about a 30-minute wait for a table, but that's part of the fonda-style experience. Tables turn over as people finish their meals, and while you're waiting, you can relax with an ice-cold Medalla, which makes the time go by quickly. A special thank you to the staff for the excellent service and warm hospitality. The food, the atmosphere, and the friendly staff made this one of our favorite dining experiences in Old San Juan. We will definitely be back!

The restaurant is absolutely adorable inside and has a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Once we were seated, the service was quick and attentive. There were four of us in our party, and we started with the pizza turnovers. They were delicious, although I do wish they had a little more filling. I ordered the tamale. While it wasn't quite to my personal taste, I could tell it was well made and I'm sure others who enjoy that style of tamale would love it. My husband had the baked chicken and really liked it. My friend ordered the salmon and said it was moist and very flavorful, and her husband had the garlic chicken, which he thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, everyone in our group was happy with their meals. Between the cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and tasty food, I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you're visiting Old San Juan.

Beautiful restaurant with outstanding, creative dishes…read more My husband and I ordered one app and two entrees. The portions were very large, and we would have been fine with just two menu items! To start, we had the roasted eggplant, lamb 'picadillo', date sofrito, 'Feliche' yogurt. Really delicious and probably best for sharing among 3-4 people as it's a bit heavy given the lamb. Nevertheless, it was really good and we finished it! For entrees, we tried the (1) rice with rabbit, sweet plantain in its leaf and the (2) breaded pork loin, mushroom cream, cherokee tomatoes from San Lorenzo, tostones. Our server was super excited when we ordered the rice with rabbit and I understand why. It was insanely flavorful. Also a massive portion haha. We really enjoyed this. The pork loin was delicious as well, especially with the mushroom cream. Plantains are one of my favorite foods, and these tostones did not disappoint. The restaurant itself is beautiful. It's a nice mix of modern decor with homey, vintage elements. There is a very large outdoor space, but I'm really glad we ate inside. Definitely recommend - especially for a group that likes to share!
