This was the best meal of our 7 day trip! The food was all so delicious from the amazing bread that they brought you to the amazing dessert souffle they cracked and poured chocolate in. I got the pork chop, and everyone was in awe when it came to the table, including the tables surrounding us. It was authentic to Puerto Rico, but elevated and oh so good. The cocktails were artfully & thoughtfully crafted with beautiful garnishes on all from beautiful flowers to yummy cookies. The service was warm and friendly, yet upscale. If you are looking for a cherry on the top of your trip for a meal, this is the spot. Mario Pagan's original concept is 100% worth making a reservation. Don't miss out!

Let me start off letting you know that you definitely need a reservation to eat at this restaurant. The food here is so fresh and delicious! I’ve never had any cocktails made like this. The bartenders are amazing here. They’re entertaining to watch while they make their drinks. The chef food was out of this world I ordered the almond crusted chicken and the Seabass and it was so good. This place is definitely two thumbs up I will be coming back again!

Israel took a great care of us at the bar. All the cocktails were delicious and it was great chatting with him. It was so hard to choose what to eat, because everything on the menu looked very uttractive and intersting. It was really, really good. Overall we had an amazing experience and we would definitely go back next time in the city. Thank you very much

Checked out this place based on a recommendation and was not disappointed. I ordered the lamb shoulder which came with cauliflower risotto with goat cheese. Everything was extremely flavorful and well seasoned and the meat was very tender and fell apart with a fork. Service was top notch and valet parking was super convenient as it was raining and street parking wasn't readily available.

Ordered the salmon(medium cooked), and it was cooked to perfection (for me). Outside had a little crunch on the edges, and inside was moist. The beet risotto was just as delicious. Didn't think I would like it bc I'm not a fan of beets, but it was a good balance to the salmon. The chocolate souffle was heaven; rich and creamy. Went perfect with my coffee night cap. As for the morcilla, I enjoy eating it how it is traditionally made. This one was cooked a different style that just wasn't for me. A little on the drier side, but if that's your style, then it would be something you may enjoy.
