Every meal was very well prepared, but the portions are really small. It's a 4 Course price fixed menu, but some of the items have add on prices. Definitely well worth going there at least once if you are in PR. The views by the window tables are spectacular and the lobby bar shouldn't be missed.

We spent our last night in Puerto Rico at a very nice place. We thought we’d splurge a bit and so happy we did. The 4-course meal had so many amazing choices - plus extras! The staff and servers were all very attentive and made sure we had what we needed the entire time! I’m sorry I did t remember the servers names- they both had unique names and they were the best. I highly recommend for a nice night or special occasion! We will be back.

We had an excellent experience at 1919. We really enjoyed the wine pairings with the dinner and highly recommend that addition. Everything about the food was great, from presentation to taste. The service was impeccable and the ambiance was great. We cannot say enough good things about the people who work there and helped make our celebration dinner special. We look forward to returning to 1919 in the future.

We went for Mother's Day and it was also my mother's birthday. Food and displays were excellent and the staff were exceptional. We were visiting so I don't know how it is outside of this experience (they had a special set up for Mother's Day) but considering the experience we had, I'm sure it's nothing short of amazing. William and Angel were our servers and they took very good care of us.

When dining at a place like 1919 you only hope the expectations meet the reality. For us those expectations were vastly exceeded. William and Angel were tremendous in both their service and professionalism. We felt well looked after as we navigated our dining experience. I cannot speak to the entire staff at 1919 but those we dealt with fantastic. I imagine they are a reflection of an overall service level. Oh and the food was fantastic. The pacing of the meal was easy and felt neither rushed nor dragged out for effect. To work thru four courses took right at two hours. We appreciate the hospitality as we were celebrating our 21st anniversary. We would definitely recommend 1919 for anyone looking for a truly wonderful dining experience in Puerto Rico.
