   If you have had an international food experience most of your life, then you know Puerto Rico can be quite difficult to find truly high quality cuisine. There are a few restaurants with beautiful views and good food, however…. You can skip the aforementioned statement when you visit Mario Pagan, located on Ashford Avenue at the end of one of the tourist areas in Condado. You will spend $100/pp + for a bottle of wine, appetizers, main course, deserts. Excellent service is included. Make a reservation a few days in advance to get optimal hours; 2 people can take their chances and eat at the bar receiving the same great food. My wife and I have been there 3-4 times in 6 years for special occasions; it’s consistently excellent. Dress code is somewhat relaxed; most are dressed business casual but I recently observed a north american fellow in white dress shirt with bermuda shorts; no beachware. I will return to Mario Pagan.

    What a fabulous dinner. This is a place not to be missed. Starting with cod chips and warm bread, everything was great. The lamb confit, the bass, snapper and almond crusted chicken breast were the best. One of the best were the bites of pig ears. Love this restaurant.

    We had been on vacation for 10 days and been to many of the restaurants on the Condado strip. By far this restaurant was outstanding and the best dinner we had while in Puerto Rico. The service, food, value and location all add up to A+ dining experience. Recommend highly, only wish we found it sooner!

    Excellent dining experience for 2 couples on Valentine’s Day evening. Service was superb and the dishes were fantastic. The pork chop and veal chop special were superb as well as the scallop dish. Only downside was the very limited by the glass wine selection.

    Our meal was delicious. We had the pork chop and chilean sea bass. Both were outstanding. The service was good as well. Holding back on 5 star because the wine by the glass list was uninspiring and the area we were seated in was very quiet. It was a side room that was too secluded for us. Still recommend.

    We were placed off to the side in a room with a large party and one other table of two. Before the large party arrived I asked to be moved because I knew it would be loud and spoil the ambiance. They had no other table available. I do not know if I was placed there because I made the reservation with Open Table ( because it usually goes that way) however my fears were realized. I could barely hear the server. The group of 12 were not all that noisy, just a big group. The food was good , not fantastic, but very flavorful. Took a long time to receive our drinks as well. One other thing, when you order dinner you need to order the dessert soufflé at the same time in order to get it on time. We did that but it took about 35-40 minutes after our plates were cleared to receive that dessert. The restaurant did not charge us for it. I actually own a restaurant and my experience with a restaurant is that you give the customer a good experience as well as good food. In that respect this restaurant failed. No manager came to speak with us or to make any amends as well. Be specific if you book that you do not want to be in the side room.

    The service was great as always, the appetizers were excellent, the crab tacos (taquitos actually) and the escargot yuca bacon mofonguitos (amazing but, again very small and only 4). I ordered the Sea Scallops for sin dish and they were a little overcoked (good, but not great). The best thing was the chocolate rice cake with chocolate mousse and chou cake inside topped with “Turrón ice cream. I am coming the next time just for appetizers and desserts.

    Had an excellent meal and service from Jesus. Sea Bass was delicious… a good portion cooked to perfection served on top of a yuca mash with a foie gras sauce and esparagus; chocolate souffle was divine, appetizers we shared were also very good: pionono, alcapurrias, octopus, cauliflower soup. Nice Cocktails and Pinot Noir! Will surely come back soon!
