It's a little hidden gem in San Juan. Quiet and the decor is beautiful. My boyfriend and I came to eat brunch, the Silver dollar pancakes are insanely delicious. Small but filling and there's a bit of crunch to them but they're still soft and fluffy. I had the oatmeal and it's the cutest set up. And the Cuban Sandwich--we were speechless. It's simply the best sandwich we've ever had. The pulled pork was so juicy, and the bread. There's not enough words to describe how tasty it is. Just wow! Victor was our server, but the entire staff is friendly and attentive, great service! A must to eat here! read more

We had a wonderful breakfast at Donostia! Our meals were delicious - they were made well and with high quality ingredients so I imagine everything on the menu is a good choice! My husband liked the Mofongo, and I got the yogurt - the fruit was fresh and tasty. They also have great coffee! Service was fantastic - everyone was nice and the timing was perfect. It's also very cute and airy inside! read more

Great breakfast spot! Stopped here before my return flight and only complaint is that I didn't find it sooner. Fresh, quality produce that I don't mind paying a little extra for; it's worth it! I ordered several sides a la carte: eggs, fruit, tostones, and bacon. Everything tasted great and I didn't need hot sauce for the eggs. They were tasty on their own (so of good quality!). Friendly service and was surprisingly quicker than I anticipated. I'll be back when I return to PR! read more

Came on a random weekday and there was no line so we were able to get seated in the front. It took forever for a waiter to bring a menu, and we were understanding with the influx of tourists. After ordering, the waitress came back 3+ times because there was something wrong with the machine. that was fine, and about 30 mins into waiting for our food, she told me she wouldn't be able to do tacos (ran out of tortillas?) and it would be a burrito, which is fine because at this point we were waiting over an hour for our food. Once we got the food (after an hour and 20 minutes) it was good. the mofongo was the best but we also realized they taste similar to one another because it used the same ingredients and sauce. in addition it was quite oily, which was expected but the spinach was drenched in the oil so we didn't bother eating it. the wait and price for the food didn't make it worth it to us, but we were happy to try it at least. read more

We found this place in San Juan and decided to get brunch while our flight got delayed. We found easy street parking. TEverything was great and the portions were enormous. While we all enjoyed what we ordered I think just my 10 year old son got the best dish-the pancakes. They were VERY good. read more

A must go brunch joint. Small, welcoming, great dishes. Servers super friendly. The table had 5 different dishes, we loved each & end up sharing. Don't forget to order a side of rice and beans, ... heavenly! read more

5-stars? Yes! My girlfriend and I have been here twice, both times we got the Mallorca Cubano sandwich! ! She got fries. I got tostones. Our food was delicious! The wait staff are very kind, friendly, and attentive. It's a nice, quiet restaurant on a quiet street. Perfect! If we return to San Juan, we will certainly return here! I've had Cuban sandwiches in various locations, including Havana, and this was the best that I've ever had! read more

Hands down the worst dining experience of my life. Greeted by a rude, incompetent host that was too busy on his phone to seat us. Then we proceeded to wait for 25 minutes to get a glass of water. I ordered a Bloody Mary and received an iced glass of tomato juice, 45 minutes into my miserable stay here. Just a short, 1.5 hours into my visit, I received possibly the worst "breakfast burrito" I've ever had. My hope is that this review saves people from wasting their time, money and sanity. read more

Wow! Quaint and absolutely delicious! We had breakfast here twice on our trip (Uber from isle verde area back & forth isn't cheap but so worth it!) The morning cocktails & coffee, the servers, THE OATMEAL OMg the oatmeal.... I don't even like oatmeal & realize everyone thinks they have a grandma who makes it good...but THIS place has the corner on that market! We were told it's made w/ their secret ingredient ...LOVE! read more

Fabulous breakfast spot, we ate here multiple times. Everything we ordered was delicious and the staff are super friendly and helpful. Sitting outside can definitely be a bit hot (umbrellas could be bigger), but it's a fairly quiet spot secluded by plants. We were staying around Ocean Park, so being able to walk over and not worry about driving/taxis/scooters made it even more relaxing. read more

I cannot say enough amazing things about this place. From the moment we walked in, the energy was so inviting, engaging, warm and had such an exclusive family feel. The food and drinks were delicious and our server, Caribe, told us all about the menu, suggestions and things to do in PR. All the small details made this place a complete gem. I would definitely return, one of my favorite new spots! read more

Great place for brunch/lunch! Especially before heading to the airport .The Puertorican nachos were amazing. My friends and I got great service from the gentleman who just moved from Florida. He was funny and worked hard to make sure we were satisfied. read more

This place is a great little cafe to stop by and grab a quick breakfast. They have great Mallorcas and classics breakfast sandwiches. It was so good we went there twice on our little get away to Puerto Rico. I had the Mallorca cubano day one and the monte Christo sandwich day two. My wife had the vegetarian grilled cheese twice and loved it. Plus you can grab the food to go and enjoy your breakfast on the beach two blocks away like we did. Don't forget to grab a Puerto Rican iced coffee. And if you are feeling adventurous there's a drink called Mavi that is made from tree bark (I know doesn't sound like it could be appetizing but trust me it is delicious), give it a try you will only find it in Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic. Great way to start the day. Highly recommended. read more

We are here on vacation and popped into this little shop for some breakfast! It is surprisingly spacious on the inside with beautiful and calming decor with lots of greenery. I had a cafe con leche that was piping hot and delicious along with the Mallorca French toast that had fresh blueberry compost on top. The presentation was great and tasted amazing; definitely worth the stop! read more

The newest and best Ocean Park breakfast and tapas restaurant. It simply crushes all the other cafe's in the area by a long shot. Food is amazing and the service is excellent! There is no amount of praise that would truly reflect how 'perfect' this cafe is in so many ways. Plenty of parking across the street at Ocean Park. I will be making regular visits to this place as it's perfect in every way possible. read more

My favorite little breakfast spot in ocean park! Super cute cafe with both vegetarian and non vegetarian options.

Hummus de gandules (pigeon peas)....best hummus I have ever had. It comes on a freshly baked flatbread with heirloom cherry tomatoes and can be a meal on its own. read more

Go to breakfast, brunch, coffee spot for me and my family. We go on the weekends after spending some time at Barbosa park. Everything we've had there was great. We recommend the bread with hummus, empanadas, mini pancakes, and arugula salad. If you are the type who loves off the beaten path tucked away spots, then go here. The staff is very friendly and they play games with our two kids. The owner is a 9/11 survivor with endless interesting stories. She is a self taught chef, but you'd think she came from the top cooking school in the country. read more

Oh my god! Amazing Vegan burger! Amazing service! Amazing price! If there was a 6 star I would give it that! Very clean as well.

What an unexpected delight! This new restaurant in the Ocean Park neighborhood is a treat, both in decor and the quality of the food. We had the best brunch and one of the best meals we have had in San Juan in the six years we have been vacationing here. Tucked away on a quiet corner of Calle McCleary near Barbosa Park, it may be easy to miss, but that would be a mistake. read more

Small unassuming family restaurant that we decided to check out because it was walking distance from our AirBnb and the beach. Was not disappointed! I had the French toast monte cristo with a side of very crispy bacon and a cafe con leche. It was perfectly portioned and served on a wooden plate. Indoor seating with AC and a small covered outdoor seating area. If you're in the area it's worth a stop. Very quick service. read more
