Everything was amazing. For apps, we had the ceviche, which was very fresh, and the charred broccolini. For mains, we had the veal chop, topped with drizzled hot honey, a side of truffle fries, and the blackened salmon over a bed of corn and goat cheese risotto. Delicious! Our server Valeria was excellent!

It was.... Okay. Had the strawberry limoncello vodka mule cocktail and it was good. Appetizer course: brussel sprouts were good, a little too much seasoning, the coconut shrimp ceviche was excellent, as was the fried burrata. Main course: the pigeon peas risotto was so salty it was inedible. The Bolognese was also salty, a little less. Steak was ok. Ribs were good. Not one dish was pleasantly memorable. Dessert: the ricotta doughnuts with ricotta ice cream was the best bite of the night. And the homemade salty caramel honey ice cream, something like that, was also excellent. At the end of the night the food was too expensive for what was served. It did not feel like fine dining, although the prices are up there (@$125 pp plus gratuity). The salon is nice, but not elevated. The servers are nice, but lack finesse. The entire experience is too casual for the public it sells to. And the bathrooms smelled like sewage (bad experience). I feel the menu is super attractive but the execution was lacking. And the ambience did not rhyme with the menu nor it's prices. All in all, it has potential but attention to consistency from the kitchen and a rebranding for the public it wants to attract are my suggestions.

Hi Bamily, I have to say it was very difficult to digest this review. The overall agreement with your food order was that everything was great. A 20% tip usually means that you enjoyed your experience. We can take accountability for a dish being salty and will always make it right if something is not to a customer’s liking, if given the opportunity. Your bill was $100 per person. You ordered 4 apps, 4 mains, a side dish, 3 desserts and coffee, as well as cocktails. I can assure you we work tirelessly every day to provide the overall consistency that has defined us since we opened 6 years ago. We’re not trying to be anything more than a casual restaurant in Santurce’s Calle Cerra serving a contemporary menu while working with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Thanks for visiting.

Excellent food. Started off with the ceviche and fried burrata. Best ceviche we have ever had- fresh, flavorable and the perfect start to dinner. Lobster and Shrimp Moqueca was a perfect main dish.

Outstanding! We were a party of seven so we tried a good portion of their menu. Friendly staff who gave us excellent suggestions. Creative cocktails and on-point wine list. For share appetizers were fantastic. All main courses ordered were perfect - comfort food at its best.
