Once again!! Never disappointing. This is my Mallorca sandwich spot! Where sweet and salty meet. Simply the best. The staff here are wonderful. Ready to take care of your food cravings. Let's not forget about the espresso or cafe leche! The restaurant always clean and the desserts are in abundance. If you're ever in the area...GET SOME!!!!
Local and tourist favorite, this one of the best bakeries we visited in San Juan. I love the Obama story that is posted on the wall from the time he visited Kasalta, it's so sweet. Classic Puerto Rican coffee and endless savory and sweet treats from Tres Leches, Quesitos, Sandwiches, Croquettes, etc. all fantastic. It is walk up service with cafeteria style dining- sometimes it can be a long line depending on the day/ time, but it's worth the wait.
I see why this place has hosted 2 sitting presidents... Everything I had here was amazing. The bacalao fritters were lightly crispy on the outside, chewy (like firm mashed potatoes) on the inside. So good! The strawberry cheesecake was fantastic. It was this spongy, airy crust that gave it an even more delight texture. The flaky pastry filled with guava filling was divine. The crispiness of the pastry combined with the tart sweetness of the guava... Absolute perfection. The apple, guava and cheese danish was a unique, local take on a classic breakfast pastry and it delivered in every way. Well worth a visit if you can make it here.
BOMBACLATTTT!!!! First off the restaurant is poppin'. Parking is limited so hopefully you can get a spot close by! We parked in their designated parking and they have a parking security guard that helps with coming in and out. Walking into the restaurant things are set up a lil awkward. You walk all the way inside and form the line at the end of the restaurant- sometimes standing behind people eating like in my picture. Hack** you can order sandwiches at the pastery line that's located closest to the door. Big man ting. The Cuban sandwich was pretty good but my girl loved the turkey. The coffee tho ... that thang was BUSSIN' get you a damn large cup unlike my lil kids meal one. Pretty good and fair price we paid about $30 for everything
My wife and I were staying in San Juan and we decided to take an Uber out to this Yelp recommended restaurant and my friend told me to try the Tripleta. I got a local beer to was down the perfect cheese and meat and wonderful bread of this tripleta/Perfecta. I guess they had Obama even visit and they have a poster on the wall. Pretty cool. I wanted to try all their cheeses and it starts to fill up at lunchtime. Great place for a sammy and a beer!
This place was down the street from my accommodation and didn't realize how storied it was until after I had landed. Asked the cashier what her favorite sandwich was and she said the spicy steak. Very filling and the fresh orange juice was tasty, a bit pricey but I guess it's expected as the island continues to go through gentrification.
This was a great pit stop on our way to Loíza. We stopped for an afternoon snack. There's a parking lot right next to it that had plenty of empty spots at this time of the day. We tried their guava and coconut cake which was yum, and the ham, egg, cheese sandwich on Mallorca bread. The cheese in this was just incredible! The bread was certainly interesting - they sprinkle icing sugar on it... definitely worth trying if you've never had it before but not sure I'd get the bread again. The sandwich can easily be shared between two. Good portion. Also got two cappuccinos which were fairly average. There is no table service but staff are really helpful and friendly! On a side note, I thought it was interesting how there were no trash cans in the bakery (or outside). Also been told to try their guava pasteles but they had run out when we went. Next time!
Kasalta Bakery was a 2 minute drive away from my air b n b when I was in San Juan, and we visited many times during our trip. Initially, it was a recommendation from my cousin, but when we tried it, we fell in love! Each time we visited, the bakery was lively between the workers and the guests - you can tell there were many regulars and tourists, alike! From the workers, to the pastries and breakfast options, this place felt so homey and I was elated that I could ate back into my childhood when ordered these pastries and desserts. The cafe con leche was a must every morning. Their pastelito de guayaba was to die for - I wish I had 4 more! 12/10 On another day when's I visited, I tried their flan de coco. I believe - if I'm not mistaken that they had 3 flavors of flan. But the flan de coco was also a 10/10. On the days I visited, my husband and I also had breakfast sandwiches which were delicious and fresh. Kasalta Bakery is a must visit if you are in the San Juan area! You will not be disappointed!
Stopped here for breakfast around 11am on a Sunday. I was told that their pastries and food were really good. I did enjoy the empanada but the coffee was bland. I couldn't find any sugar and they don't do flavored coffee. If you want iced, please visit elsewhere or settle for hot coffee. The line was at least a 20 min wait so I grabbed a table while my boyfriend ordered for us. I would say get there early if you're looking for sancocho as they ran out early . (I mainly went for it) but settled for an empanada. The restaurant is clean in the dining area from what I could tell and the pastries were popular. You can order to go or choose to sit but you must order in line. I learned that Obama visited here years ago which was a pretty fun fact. I would definitely come again but early enough to take advantage of their soup and sandwich.
This place was a blind pick on a beach walk. The restaurant was very welcoming and the staff was kind. They try to get you to the right place by asking if you're here to dine, to order out, (soups salads,and desserts) or a la carte. This place is near the beach and convenient to get out of the heat. The staff was less attentive once I explained I wanted a la carte. We ordered the chicken breast and salad and the burger from the lunch special. The food was not picture worthy, and I mean this kindly because the staff was nice. It's important to note that it is a Spanish diner, because otherwise you expect a Puerto Rican experience and that's not what we got hahaha.

Lunes 20 de abril de 2026 en el área de Condado en San Juan es la hora de almuerzo y decidido ir a este Icono de local en el área establecido muchos años. Local amplio en forma rectangular y estacionamiento con seguridad. Limpio y ordenado sus clientes son nativos y americanos y extranjeros. Sus precios son más altos por ser un área turística, pero todo fluyó en orden y el almuerzo estuvo muy bien . read more

This place was very busy and popular. I stopped by for a quick bite on the go. I tried the mini Cuban sandwich which was good but it was served cold. I would have preferred it pressed. The ladies behind the counters aren't the friendliest. I also tried the croquetas which were good. read more

This place is absolutely amazing and delicious! During our stay in PR, we went there twice: once for dinner and once for breakfast/lunch. Both times we were equally impressed with the quality and the deliciousness of the foods we ate. The Asopao de camarones, de mamposteao' rice, the sardines, the soups, the tostones, the sandwiches and omg the breakfast avena (oatmeal) were out of this world. The service was equally impressive. Everyone working there was so kind and friendly and willing to service with a smile on their faces! Highly recommended if you are staying in the Ocean Park area. read more

Despite the large array of desserts, the money is in the sandwiches and sancocho. If you get one thing from here, it has to be the Mallorca. On a Tuesday afternoon, the place was half full and there was a short line to order the mallorcas. Thankfully there's a lot of seating so it wasn't hard to get a table. The vibe is casual and feels very local. After my partner ordered the food, he took the tray of food to table so there's no table service. I really enjoyed the ham and cheese mallorca which had a hint of sweetness from the powdered sugar on the bread, but was primarily savory (exactly what I wanted). The sancocho was hearty and flavorful with tender pieces of chicken, carrots, potatoes, and plantains. Paired with a creamy cortadito and I was in heaven. My partner had a cuban sandwich which was also great and the bread was nice and crispy. After our meal, we got the flan, tres leches, and coquito and chocolate truffles. The flan and tres leches were okay. The flan had a slightly hard spongy consistency which wasn't my favorite (I prefer jelly/pudding consistency flans) and the tres leches was surprisingly on the dryer side. My favorite was the coquito truffle which was rich and decadent. For a hangover and last minute breakfast before the airport, Kasalta held us down. Worth the last minute pit stop. read more
this is probably the best breakfast spot in the area. it's huge cafeteria style and long wait on line but totally worth it especially in the morning. we came here twice in one day to get the desserts at the end of the night and chose guava cheese it was fantastic for breakfast i got a turkey sandwich and a bunch of empanadas. i think the best part is the cafe con leche espresso with milk which was out of this world probably the best coffee i had while on the island 10/10 A+ read more
i look forward to eating here when in san juan but unfortunately kasalta was not hittin' this trip. sandwich felt slapped together. mallorca was dry, ratio of ham to bread was off, cheese was not given time to melt. idk if they were rushing because they were busy? or if their standards have dropped?.. sadly, gonna try to get my mallorca fix elsewhere next time. read more
Delicious bakery. I like the vibe inside here. Beautiful windows to let in the light. There is so much seating and also lots of different things to try. I had the Mallorca with ham and cheese. I would describe the Mallorca as a big croissant with granulated sugar on top. It was so good. When you place your order, walk over to the counter, where the register is, and wait your turn. The lady at the front spoke mostly Spanish, but some English. I saw many random items worth noting. They serve alcohol here, and also have chocolates like truffles. There are so many sandwich options and also fresh coffee available. We enjoyed the food so much that we went back to order some dessert like flan. read more
Food - We ordered the ham and cheese sandwich, ham, egg, and cheese croissant, and a guava danish. Food tasted great! Really enjoyed the danish, will hopefully be back before my vacation is over to try out a few other dishes. Service - Staff was friendly and explained menu items as needed. We didn't interact with them much outside of ordering at the counter. Ambiance - Restaurant has great lighting, lots of large windows so very bright, and airy feel. Good amount of seating and the option to eat in or take out. I can tell it's a popular local spot we came around 1 pm on Thursday and it was packed! Highly recommend for breakfast or lunch! Update- Went back multiple times over the course of my vacation. The arroz con leche and flan are amazing! They also have dinner, wine and live music nights. Can't recommend Kasalta enough if you're in San Juan PR it's a must try. read more

Good bakery in a great location. We ended up here to get dessert after leaving another local restaurant in the area. Got in and checked out all the different types of dessert they offered. We wanted to get it to go so decided on a Chocolate chip cheesecake (which was good, creamy, good flavor), crème brulee (Phenomenal, sweet, custardy, just great) and a chocolate cake that was just dry, lacked something, so we didn't finish it. But great visit overall, nothing to really complain about. Service was really good as well, and for it being 8pm that bakery was pretty packed. Seems like this is the local spot to meet up after work and have team meetings at. read more

Kasalta is a great place to go for a sweet treat or a brunch meal. Our Airbnb was nearby and we decided to stop here after hearing some buzz and seeing that Obama stopped here on his PR trip. Right when you walk in, there are chocolates and bakery items displayed within glass. Even though this is a fairly small location, it feels much more open and bright since there are a lot of windows to bring in natural light. We ordered a quesito, pistachio cheesecake, and a couple drinks and really enjoyed it all! read more

Food is spectacular! We enjoyed several meals here while on vacation. The breakfast sandwiches are huge, big enough for 2 to share and delicious. Dinner plates are also great. The beans or habichuelas are to die for. Couldn't get enough of the quesitos. Brought a few home with us. Highly recommend Kasalta. Can't wait for our next trip! read more
