I've had hot chocolate across Europe and the U.S., including other well-known spots in San Juan, and this place stands in a league of its own. The quality, depth of flavor, and attention to detail are exceptional. A must-visit, and a huge shoutout to this women-owned gem for setting the bar so high.

The owner explained the process of chocolate making by her family business with the confidence of a woman who has mastered her craft. With pride , she told us her products were overwhelmingly locally sourced and of the highest quality. The iced 70% chocolate was rich and refreshing and the chocolate chip cookie and brownies were perfect. We got a Black Pearl, a multi layer mousse and cake creation to eat the next day. While we didn't have the coffee products, the customers before us did and it smelled wonderful, a coffee grown and roaster in Puerto Rico We can't say enough about our experience at Frangi and hope you'll enjoy it as much as we did

My wife and I had breakfast at Chocobar Cortés in Old San Juan, and it was outstanding!…read more We ordered the Huge Breakfast and shared it. Everything was delicious. The scrambled eggs were incredibly smooth and buttery, the pancakes were fluffy and tasted great with the chocolate syrup, and the chicken strips were perfectly crispy. The Mallorca bread was a nice Puerto Rican touch and paired well with the meal. The sweet hot chocolate was rich and comforting without being overly sweet. You can tell chocolate is their specialty. The atmosphere was excellent--cool and comfortable inside, with reggae music playing in the background. As a Bob Marley fan, I especially enjoyed hearing songs from Bob, Stephen, and Ziggy Marley while we ate. The staff was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service from start to finish. If you're visiting San Juan and looking for a great breakfast spot, I highly recommend Chocobar Cortés. We will definitely return on our next trip to Puerto Rico!

This is a review of the food tour. The company offers other tours like rum tour and history tour…read more Our guide Pablo was super nice and knowledgeable. You'd get a text message reminder a day before the tour and they would ask if you have food restrictions or allergies. You'd also get a reminder where the meeting spot is. We met at Banco Popular, introduced ourselves and went our merry way to the 5 different food spots. Pablo ordered the food before hand so that when the group arrived at the different restaurants/places, the food was ready and we did not have to wait that long. Our first stop was Cafe Cuatro Sombras where we had coffee and croissant ham/provolone cheese/guava butter. I liked this croissant with a hint of tanginess/sweetness from the guava. Noncoffee drinkers had options of lemonade and tea. Second stop was Señor Paleta. There's no indoor seating here so we had the delicious parcha (passion fruit) popsicle. Yum! Very refreshing, great for this warm weather! Third stop was Cafe El Punto. This place has a lot of artwork by local artists. We had ceviche de pescado and alcapurrias de la casa which were nice. Fourth stop was El Patio de Sam where we "made" our own mofongo. We had fried plantains and garlic butter, mashed them in a mortar and pestle, and added the chicken before turning the mortar upside down to get the mofongo. This was flavorful and had more moisture compared to another mofongo we had. Last stop for dessert was Vaca Brava. We had flan which was nice. We enjoyed the food, the tour, and the conversations. Great experience here.

Note that the 53 C. Luisa address is production facility rather than a typical storefront. Their…read moremain storefront is in the mall of San Juan, but I wasn't able to get there during my trip. I called ahead to the production facility, and they were happy to accommodate my order there. They also sometimes accept orders via Ubereats. The production facility building on Calle Luisa is unassuming and you will need to call to be let in. Once inside, they explained their available flavors to me, allowed me to sample some chocolates (which were fantastic) and let me choose the flavors in my order. A 16-pc box and a 9-pc box were about $119, which is on-par with the cost of other high-end chocolates. I highly recommend the arroz con dulce flavor. It's unique and flavorful without being too sweet.

I've bought them at the grocery store for my mother over the years when I couldn't find Menier. I was hoping to see some unique desserts at Chocobar Cortés. Let's just say that the chocobar at this location was not what I was expecting. It's like an express version of their original one in Old San Juan. This is located in the lobby of the Condado Palm Hotel. There are 2 entrances. Don't make the same mistake we did by trying to access at street level. That door is locked. You'll need to enter through the hotel lobby. The service is very slow here. There was only one other person there. We ordered a box of 6 chocolates and payed for it. I'm guessing he was making a drink for the other guest because he asked us to wait a few minutes. It ended up being longer so he told his colleague (who just came back from a break) to make up the chocolate box for us. Unfortunately, it took even longer as this other guy was more interested in the 2 young girls who just walked in. The chocolate bonbons were good, but nothing unique. It's the same artisan chocolates that you see everywhere for the same high price. Perhaps this location is better for their specialty cocktails in the evening time. I was looking forward to trying the choco-latte at some point. I doubt there will be a next time.

I can't praise George, his family and their restaurant(s) enough to do them justice! My fiance and…read moreI visited Juana La Loca a few years ago because we absolutely loved the decor, but we were pleasantly surprised that the food and drinks were also amazing. Fast forward and we had a Welcome Reception for our destination wedding at Juana La Loca. Not only did George and his team exceed all of OUR expectations, several groups of our guests were so impressed by the food/drinks that they went back to the restaurant while in PR. I could go on and on about the food, the service, and the beauty of the restaurants but sometimes it's the little things that make a huge difference. For example, when I couldn't get a sign for the party made and shipped in time--George made it happen. Or when our guests wanted to turn the reception into karaoke--George/his team made it happen. I'm pretty sure George even greeted each of our guests himself. All in all, George and the Juana La Loca team exceeded all of our expectations!

Oversized chairs and fainting couches, portraits of nobility long perished, walls tattooed with what appeared to be centuries of age. ...And of course some Halloween decorations thrown in for good measure because 'tis the season. The bartender was really nice and very attentive. I grabbed a table closest to the bar so that I could watch the show. This was a unique take on brunch, for sure. Interactive too. At one point the flamenco dancer handed everyone handkerchiefs and invited them up to dance with her. Nothing complicated, just pure fun. In between sets, the restaurant played lively salsa music which really set the tone for where we were. After my unexpected workout, I ordered breakfast: The Conde de Castillas sandwich--minus the ham, and a glass of passion fruit juice. Essentially, it was a smoked gouda cheese sandwich with a guava and berry jam, on a fluffy, lightly toasted mallorca. Delicious! I only wish there was more cheese. An ooey gooey cheese pull would have been amazing! The sandwich also came with a side of super-skinny french fries. It was a little over $30 for both, but it was a filling and satisfying breakfast...plus live entertainment!
