Our strikingly designed Caribbean Asian restaurant brings the spirit of Asia to the heart of Puerto Rico. Let us take you into a vibrant world of fresh fusion food created by our locally famous chef, Mario Pagan. Avocado chili drops, tuna poke pegaito or spiced adobo kurobuta ribs are some of the recipes inspired by the flavors of Thailand, Vietnam, Korea & Japan. Experience the passion of the chef in a lively atmosphere and a dramatic setting furnished with marble patterned floors in the first floor of O:LV Fifty Five.

Be dazzled by our Sake and Japanese whiskey infused cocktails or let our expert mixologists create a bright combination of flavors for you! It’s a truly one-of a kind experience, where sharing is encouraged and superb is required.

Our dress code is casual elegant. No shorts/flips flops allowed.

Your table will be reserved for 2 hours. We have a 15 minute grace period for all tables. NOTE: When booking outdoor seating, it is for the terrace at RAYA, not ARYA Rooftop.

    The food was amazing! The hostess and the staff were very kind and accommodating! We got treated very nicely by everyone. It was my friends birthday and they brought out a dessert with a candle for her. Would definitely go again!

    We had the duck fried rice and it was amazing. Also we had the filet Mignon special with 3-truffle dumplings and it was tasty but the duck was better. The free mushroom soup was great!

    One of the worst meals my wife and I have had in a long time. We love Asian cuisine, and we have tried and enjoyed other restaurants from Mario Pagan, but this was at best Panda Express level cuisine. We tried the chicken Lo-Mein and the duck fried rice, both highly recommended by the server. Both were incredibly heavy on soy sauce. All we could taste was soy sauce. The appetizers also missed the mark. We have been to Sage twice, but we are not coming back to Raya. I wish I could recommend it but it was a really disappointing experience.

    We always enjoy when we’re in Puerto Rico. Gustavo is one of the best mixologists I’ve come across and has an expert take on classic cocktails. My favorite dish is the Costillas. The are tender but have a nice crisp on the outside. The shrimp boa is a light but flavorful appetizer. Overall, the restaurant is the best I’ve tried on the island.

    We dined in Raya last night, celebrating our anniversary. The experience was outstanding! We are glad to have made this choice for our special occasion.The food was delicious, and the staff was very friendly and polite. Excellent service of our young waiter. He was very knowledgeable about the food and the drink selections. It was overall a great experience.

    Food, vibe and staff were excellent— but we were seated in an isolated corner for a 7:30 reservation? Asked to move all they could do was seat at bar. The restaurant should change seating arrangements to accommodate more two tops.

    Our experience eating at Raya was very good, think 8.5/10. We were already warned about some of their appetizer not being worth our time, so we were somewhat prepared. We ordered the Lobster Spring Rolls and the Jerk Rock Shrimp Bao, both of which were really good. The main dishes were amazing though. I would even recommend ordering 3 main dishes to share.
