While their kitchen closes at ten, the owner was extremely nice and opened the kitchen back up for us. We got some chicharrones de pollo with carne frita, tostones and papas fritas. The chicharrones de pollo is literally chicken thats chopped up and deep fried, and it was delicious with the mayoketchup sauce. the pickled red onions gave the dish overall some nice acidity as well. Very worthwhile as our first 'street eats' experience in PR.

It got crowded quickly, but we still had plenty of room to dance. Drinks were cheap (we stuck with rum and Coke), and they do offer food, but some of the things we ordered took a while.

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. When you get dropped off at the main road when you walk down it takes you to all the action in a few hundred feet. This place was still packed, but it was popping, the place to be at night I'd guess. They've got all JJ da of restaurants, bars, & clubs here. Tons of music, & a good time.

Ending up at Delavida was a very happy accident. I intended to bring my wife to a different…read morerestaurant, but they laughed me out for not having a reservation. So we walked down the street into this joint, and it was delightful! First of all, the prices are very friendly for the amount of food you get. Second, even though the server was working solo, she was very attentive. Third, the food was excellent! The vibes were also unique. It was pretty dark with mood lighting inside, which made walking outside to use the restroom an intense 180. We split a mango chicken dish and steak with chimichurri sauce and rice. It blended together so well that I didn't want the food to run out. We split a bottle of wine, which was less expensive but higher quality than we would usually afford. I highly recommend stopping in if you find yourself in a similar situation!

The ambiance was gorgeous with flowers everywhere. Definitely a nice place for pictures or if you feel like dressing up and going somewhere pretty. I also saw a birthday celebration taking place there. (It was a Tuesday late morning when we were there). The food was also incredible. Their menu is long, partly bc it's available in both Spanish and English. We all had coffee drinks. My husband had the Pistachio Coffee which was so good. I started with a restretto (a one-shot of extra strong espresso) which was a good choice for me but definitely only if you love your espresso! I also had a Strawberry Spritz which came in a large glass and was so refreshing and tasty. For our meals, I had the Abocado Toast with Spicy Crab which I loved. It was like taking part of a sushi roll and mixing it with avocado toast which she beat of both worlds for me. Others in my party had the Chicken and Waffles (that topping you see in the picture is mozzarella cheese); someone had the Avocado Toast with Prosciuttio, and someone else had the Eggs Benedict with Prosciuttio. Everyone really liked their food. My husband had the Coconut French Toast, and he had already devoured half of it by the time I got to his for a picture, haha. For my 3-yeqr-old, we ordered grilled chicken which came on a cute heat shaped plate, and it was flavored so well! Definitely some of the best grilled chicken I've had. We were also able to order her a fruit cup of berries, so even without a kids menu we were able to get her a good option to eat. The only downside was the service was incredibly slow. We were placed in a side room (maybe bc we were underdressed? Hahah I don't know, and we actually liked the privacy of the room), but maybe this is why service was slow? Meaning maybe our server forgot about us? I'm not sure, but she was really nice and friendly but just did not check on us for a while at a time. We were there at least 20 minutes before we even ordered drinks. I would definitely go back, though!
