Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Old San Juan

Outstanding food and service. The best meal of my life!

I had the pleasure of dining at Santaella in Puerto Rico this past Tuesday, and it was truly a memorable experience. The atmosphere was vibrant yet cozy, perfect for a relaxing evening. We started with the tuna skewers, which were so good. The morcillas were another highlight—the dipping sauce had a nice spicy kick to it. The alcapurias with crab were an absolute treat—crispy on the outside, with a generous amount of delicious crab on top. Each dish was expertly prepared and full of distinct, authentic flavors. To complement the meal, we enjoyed the watermelon mojitos, which were refreshing and perfectly balanced between sweetness and minty freshness. A great drink to unwind with, especially in the warm PR weather. Overall, Santaella provided an exceptional dining experience with fantastic food, drinks and the staff were great. Highly recommend it if you’re in the area but reservations are a must.

Great food and service and nice ambiance and atmosphere

 Absolutely perfect in every way. The sushi rolls were really well composed and great quality fish. Love the small dining room and intimate experience. Hard to believe we were in San Juan. 

Good food, service could be better (where is my waiter), good aesthetic
