This cozy bar and tapas restaurant has a charming speakeasy vibe that immediately made us want to stay. There were four of us, and we shared three different tapas. The meatballs were hands down our favorite--they were absolutely amazing! The hummus was delicious, and the shrimp was just as impressive. The atmosphere is cute, quaint, and incredibly comfortable, with cozy chairs and small tables that give it more of a lounge feel than a traditional restaurant. It was the perfect place to relax after exploring Old San Juan. If you're in the area, I definitely recommend stopping in. We loved everything about it and would absolutely go back!

All in all, beautiful hotel and decor. I'd definitely be back.

Loved watching everyone no matter how old get into the groove. - El Final: red room with DJ booth for more dancing fun - El Desvío: Super small 10-seat candlelit area slightly hidden - La Cubanita: where we parked ourselves to chill Lowlights: - Weekend nights gets very crowded with a line out front in the heart of the nightlife area in old town.

Totally love the ambience inside cute little place with an absolutely gorgeous bar fun little tables to sit at and view of the street!

I enjoyed a glass of their Chateau de la Pierre Gamay and mi amor opted for their Santurce Prison IPA. We both enjoyed our drinks and the wine was a pretty generous pour. We scored a nice two top overlooking the cathedral, right next to the railing. Service started out great but then disappeared when it was time to check out and pay, so we had to ask another server take our payment. Not a huge deal for us as we were not in a rush to leave, but maybe be mindful of this if you have another commitment after dining here. This bar is accessed via the Decanter hotel entrance. Definitely would return here. When we first arrived the atmosphere was a little suboptimal due to a large group of about 8, but once that group left, it quieted down and was mostly couples of all ages and small groups of 3-4.

Every detail, from the decor to the cocktails, made the night feel special. This is the perfect spot for a date night or anyone looking for a unique experience in Puerto Rico.

The focus here is clearly on serious craft cocktails, and the drinks reflect that. Everything is thoughtfully made and well executed. The menu has a fun crossover theme with Pepito, the comic book character, which adds a playful element to the experience without taking away from the quality of the drinks. The bartenders were all friendly and chatty if you wanted to engage, but not intrusive if you just wanted to enjoy your drink. They struck a really nice balance.

My least favorite was the Primera Daama, something about the butterfly & lavender syrup threw me off. The croquettes were delicious, as was the alcapurria (loved the presentation), and the gnocchi - SO SO good. Highly recommend. Food definitely won over the drinks but loved the overall experience.
