The food was delicious. The staff was 100% amazing. They just made the entire experience perfect. My cousin and I sat at the bar and talked to the bartender and the server. It looked like they were having fun at work and they made our experience very enjoyable and entertaining. I learned that the bartender sings opera so definitely ask him about that lol! An absolute must visit next time in Puerto Rico! Decorations, lights, music - perfection. read more

Awesome spot; so glad we wondered in. Low key, great views, fantastic service and the food (tapas) and dranks were awesome! Must do spot for a low key and relaxing snack and drink while in the heart of San Juan. read more

Food - inconsistent portions!! Fish tacos, pizza and mac-n-cheese are a good value. Tuna tartar, and ceviche poor value and the tartar didn't taste great. The escabeche de grandules is a complete joke as the serving was about 2 tablespoons- no joke! Service- our server was nice and attentive. Ambiance - fun setting on a nice street. read more

By luck I wandered in here late in the evening, looking for a place to eat after landing in San Juan. Walked up the stairs into this incredible little place. The staff was very nice, they seated me by the balcony overlooking the streets of Old San Juan, poured me a bourbon and recommended some tapas. Both were excellent, and I think I ended up ordering half the menu for myself and just sat there and enjoyed it. read more

Came here with my other half while visiting Puerto Rico this week. Had some drinks and food. The drinks were ok but, the food was lacking. Service was fine. The sweet and tangy meatballs were good. The Creamy Mac & Cheese was............ no where what the name of it describes it to be. The Margherita Pizza.......... what in the frozen box pizza mess is this?!?!? This place needs to make some changes ASAP. Not sure how it has such good reviews just of this experience. read more

I went on a Friday night in Jan and found this place because of a recommendation. Lovely hidden spot - makes it quiet and cozy. I didn't wanna sit in the dining area but the bar area did not match the vibe of the rest of the place. Maybe it was the lighting and the music. The service though is top notch - they opened the door to the balcony for me and also made me a custom cocktail and recommended some great food. Food is great too - the feta in the ceviche though not my thing :) All in all I'd recommend this place - but for the dining area read more

Perfect place to grab a light dinner and drinks! We got the shrimp skewers, Brie and prosciutto, and margarita pizza! All the food came out really tasty. Great ambience and doesn't feel like a "tourist" restaurant! After dinner go upstairs and check out the rooftop bar! Our server was super friendly as well! read more

Was skeptical when we walked upstairs. Had reservations and staffed looked confused. Was seated right away and game on. Drinks were ok. Small plate menu. Tacos de carnitas and the fish tacos were amazing . Wanted to order a 2nd serving of the Shrimp pineapple . Meatballs were amazing . For sure repeat . read more

This was a great little spot that we found after our San Juan walking tour. It felt like we were in Europe in another time. The bar tender was a true mixologist and we enjoyed our drinks. The food was flavorful and the perfect end to our evening. We were lucky to get two seats by the bar and enjoyed our visit. I will return when I visit San Juan again. read more

Perfect rooftop sitting, be aware there will be a lot of steps to get to it. It is all high tops and a bench around the edge, they haveamy tables for different group sizes. The waiter was very friendly and quick with the drinks. We ordered, sangria's and a few tequila cocktails all tasted great sole were strong so read all the ingredients before ordering. It was very hot so being in a rooftop was perfect breeze, only fully open rooftop we found in old San Juan. read more

I came in here on a whim and I am so glad I did. This places serves the best mojitos I have ever had on any island vacation. The food is divine. Seriously skip all the other places around they are super touristy but this place is a local hot spot after work. I ordered three tapas and they were each better than the last. There's a chill relaxed atmosphere that feels like you can be in equal parts in Cuba or in the Caribbean read more

This is our must visit spot every time we're in San Juan. It's always amazing. The drinks? 10000/10 the food? 1000/10 the service? Amazing. The vibe of the place? Unmatched. I can't talk enough about how good this restaurant/ speakeasy is. Our favorite tapas are the tacos carnitas, pinchos de camarones, veggie pizza (listen I never order a veggie pizza but this is a must!!) Now drinks, the mezzanine mule is amazing (also ordered as a mocktail is amazingggg) and the lavandula & the beez are my favorite. read more

Excellent food and service. You do have to walk up a few flights of stairs but the rooms upstairs are very nice with good seating and decor. The menu is tapas style and everything was delicious! For sure do the meatballs and shrimp and pineapple! Would go back! Parking is somewhat challenging. read more

What a gem! We have been to San Juan 3 times and just found this place on our last visit. It's now a favorite! The atmosphere is so cozy and beautiful, while the food and drinks were top notch! It's a small spot, so I hesitate to write this review because I want it to be a best kept secret. We will return every trip to OSJ! read more

The service was personal, the dishes were excellent. Not a lot of tables, but it was worth it.

What a atmospheric spot to grab tapas. Hubby and I were lucky enough to get a balcony seat, so we were able to people watch inside and outside. Food is great - especially the shrimp skewers. I had a limonada and hubby had rum punch. Both were good. We experienced a couple service glitches, but both were straightened out in a friendly manner. read more

Small and cozy rooftop bar is a great place to be out for a cocktail or wine and just chill without a large crowd

Had 2 drinks here. Had to wait probably 25 minutes for a seat to open up. Had the Quita To and the Coquí Coquí. I preferred the second and it had a cool presentation. They were well balanced drinks, they didn't take too long to bring the drinks out. It was one of the better cocktail bars in old San Juan. Tip: if you're asked whether you want water, the bring out bottled spring water vs tap and obviously get charged for it. read more

We had such an amazing dinner here. The tapas were great but our server was better! Adrienne was our best server of the trip! She went above and beyond to make sure our friend's anniversary dinner was special and gave great food suggestions. We loved all the tapas except the Mac and cheese. Restaurant Seemed sketchy from the outside but we went up the stairs and loved it all. read more

The photos here are not as they appear. The rooftop is actually extremely small with only maybe less than 10 small 2 person tables. At 7pm on Saturday all the seats were taken. We were lucky to come early. The rooftop also doesn't really have any type of view? The service was extremely slow. It took at least 15 min for someone to take our order and another 10 min for our drinks to come. We both ordered the lavender mule. Drinks were very pricy!! $20 per drink!!! I'm from San Francisco and am used to paying high prices but this was unwarranted. The price isn't justified for what you're getting and the ambience you're expecting. This is for sure a tourist trap and I would not recommend. Plenty of other great bars in the area. read more

Absolutely brilliant. Eloy was the best server I have had in YEARS, the tapas selections were all fun and tasty, and the cocktails... OMFG the cocktails. If you can get anything using their house ginger beer, do it and thank me later. Oh, and did I mention they have amazing balcony seating? An absolutely great place to sit in the evening and watch the city come alive. read more

When I tell you everything was amazing the food the staff the energy and let's not for get the cocktails. Just the right amount of spice and flavor!! The staff was wonderful and we didn't take pictures the food it was too good lol. I will say recommend the tuna tartar, and the shrimp and pineapple skewers. (Order those twice) They have great seating options for couples where you can see the streets of old San Juan. Next time I'm in PR this is a must stop. Also try the nice green cocktail!!! You will not be disappointed!!! read more

Absolutely loved this adorable spot! The decor and balcony seating are charming and perfect for relaxing. The waitress was incredibly friendly and made great recommendations for my cocktail and snack. A must-visit if you're in San Juan! read more

Mildly cramped but very atmospheric bar and restaurant on the second floor. We had delicious cocktails and tapas. The Coqui Coqui was really delightful, passion fruit and smoky at the same time. My partner enjoyed his espresso rum martini. We also really like the black bean hummus and tuna tartar. We sat the the bar, which was pretty tight, but then were able to move to a table on a little terrace balcony. Really cute view of the city and a nice experience. read more

Limited tapas menu. Everything we ordered had a cream on top but tasted ok. The bartender made good Mojitos. Our server wasn't the friendliest and never smiled. The men's room only had a urinal & small sink and was maybe 4x5'. We found the place on Yelp however it wasn't what we expected. read more

Popped in here for a quick drink before dinner - service was quick, drinks were innovative and flavorful, and the ambiance is that mixture of French and Puerto Rican eclectic. Stop in if you have a chance. "Alice in Wonderland vibes" says the guy in the picture. read more

Diamond in the tourist rough. In NYC this would be a best kept secret with a line outside. High quality drinks and the tapas have a local flair that you wouldn't get in other cities. Even the bar tender was super chill! Will come back! read more

We picked this restaurant for our last night in San Juan wanting authentic tapas and it did not disappoint! The prices were incredibly reasonable and everything we had was really yummy (patatas bravas, meatballs, pineapple shrimp, and carne asada tacos with two drinks). The staff was very friendly, the ambience was so relaxing and unique, and as others mentioned, great air conditioning on a hot night. We will definitely return on our next trip! read more

Wife and I capped off a great day walking around old San Juan with a excellent light tapas dinner and a couple exquisite cocktails. Eloy and Rei provided outstanding service, preparing perfectly balanced, handcrafted drinks with care and expertise paired with great food. Very nice setting in a building with a different restaurant on each level. Great San Juan views out the open air windows matched the well decorated and appointed interior. Couldn't recommend this place more. Want to go back just for the rum old fashion. read more

The ambiance, food and drinks made for a wonderful night in Old San Juan. This gem could be easy to miss as it's slightly off the main chaos of Old San Juan, and on the second floor. Definitely worth seeking out - all of our drinks, both alcoholic and mocktails were fantastic sand the small plates were delicious. Service was stellar as well...highly recommend. read more
