    The environment here is very warm and cute. good music and very friendly staff. the food is DELICIOUS! we ordered croquettes, dumplings, and the spanish tortilla. After the first round of food, we re-ordered all the items. they were all fantastic, I am hoping to go back here before I leave PR! Victor was our waiter and he was lovely :)

    Great ambiance, nice decor, and the food was pretty good but the service was lacking on the evening we went. I had bolognese, my sister had a shrimp dish with grits. but there were many items on the menu that weren't available. Which was a bummer because my husband doesn't eat shellfish. I would try again. But the vibe was off on the night we visited.

    To start we were sat at a dirty table that had large visible pieces of food and liquids on it. No big deal except for when we asked her to clean the table, she was visible upset by it. We both ordered the hamburger. Mine medium and the other well done. Literally 45 minutes later I asked a waitress about our burgers and instead of replaying 'I'll go check', she replied 'there still cooking'. I mentioned it's been 45 minutes, and her reply was, 'she asked for well done'... no joke, that was the answer for why it's taking so long. I finally asked her to please go to kitchen and check on them. She replied yes and went off to another table and never checked. A few minutes later another waitress brought the burgers out. McDonalds does a better hamburger. Dry and overcooked with 2-3 day old thrice baked potatoe wedges... 45 minutes for this $20 hamburger ?!? Save your money, it is better spent most anywhere else. Not to mention the horrible service from the apathetic staff.

    My husband and I tried this place for the first time while we were on our honeymoon. It exceeded our expectations. The drinks were great, the appetizer was great, and overall the food was amazing. We asked our waiter to surprise us on our cocktails and we were thoroughly satisfied. I would definitely eat here again.

    El churrasco y manpostiao delicioso!!!!!

    Comida y Servicio excelente. Buen sazón, los vinos a un buen precio. Buen estacionamiento.

    Randomly walked upon this place and it was a great surprise. Everything was good! Seriously everything. My absolute favorites were the rabbit empanadas, the black squid ink rice. The octopus stuffed empanadas were loved by everyone, not me as much. The bacon/chorizo dates had too much bacon. The ratio was off.

    I don't leave a lot of reviews but man is this place amazing. Every single thing we got was absolutely delicious. Cool servers too!

    Nice parking area looking at Bottega's entrance

    Cruising and found this place, couple of friends have posted some pics been here so I thought lets go... sit at the bar ask for whiskey line up, Rafael the bartender at that moment went FULL with the line up. Japanese, french, you name it! Ate a filet mignon with vegies fell in love... keep it up guys!!!

    Chicken and waffles and burger

    My food was delicious! And the staff was very accommodating. They didn't have an English speaking waiter so the hostess actually took our order. The other wait staff made a group effort to make sure we had great service. I would definitely recommend for brunch!

    Coconut rice, rabbit empanadas, octopus, scallops
    Christine L.

    Really good tapas and stylish interior; only criticism is it's very pricey Food: my recommendation is to get mostly the grilled seafood and a side or two; the other dishes were good but not super unique Grilled octopus: super tender and the perfect amount of char/crispiness on the edges. One of the best octopus I've ever had. Scallops: cooked really well so that it was perfectly tender. But 2 scallops is not worth $14 in my opinion. Rabbit Empanadas: good pastry shell, crispy and doughy. But the filling could've been chicken and I wouldn't have known the difference Coconut rice with scallions: more like a porridge but really good flavor

    Seafood platter! Octopus leg was amazing!

    My first time in San Juan, PR. We had 6 couples with us when we stumbled into this place. It looked nice on the outside and inside. We looked at the menu and decided to dine in. They sat us down and it took the waiter 10 minutes to acknowledge us. When he did and realized we didn't speak Spanish, he had a big attitude. We felt like he rushed us to order. On the way to the restroom, I saw they had an oyster bar and a guy was chucking them. When we asked the waiter for oysters, he flat out said no. My friend had to go to the guy who was chucking them. He said they were sold out. Again this waiter was rude! If it was a language barrier, he would have said that. The lady that was getting our water was way nicer than our own waiter. Horrible waiter! Other than that the food was good, the place looked like a trendy, hipster area. If you go ask for the female waiter. The only male waiter there was horrible!!!

    Octopus and filet mignon

    My experience here wasn't bad but this just seems to be an overrated spot, in my opinion. The service was great but the food is mediocre and of course overpriced. It's a cool spot but I would recommend another restaurant instead of this one.

    J.P. S.

    Thanks to Yelp, I was able to score some "cool dad points" and impress my teenage son with a fancy night out on the town. We were seated quickly on the patio and ate a delicious meal. The ambiance is trendy and upscale with nice background music. An unexpected bonus - a celebrity actress was sitting two tables away!

    El Vino Crudo - Beetroot ice cream and olive oil cake

    If you're a lover of Italian small plates with distinctive flair and/or a curated wine list filled…read morewith exotic grapes and niche finds, you should definitely give El Vino Crudo a try. It's a cozy little restaurant that was perfect for our recent short stay in Old San Juan. I was impressed with the wine list, which featured sparkling, white, orange, rose, and red options by the glass and of course a more extensive list of bottles. I opted for two different sparkling options, a Pineau d'Aunis (rose) from the Loire Valley (strawberry notes) and a Verdeca (white) from Puglia (melon, white flowers). I drink a lot of wine and have never heard of these grapes at all, so they were fun to check out and delicious to boot. We also tried a number of different bites. They were all good, but these were the most memorable: Apio gnocchi - delightfully pillowy and nutty Dulce de papaya and prosciutto - lightly sweet and savory all at once. This might be an even better version of the more popular prosciutto and melon dish. Partamra olive oil cake - so lemony and moist Beet ice cream - this was wild! For sure my first time trying beet ice cream. It was barely sweet and had a very thick, almost custard-like texture. Special shout out to the staff, who were all so nice and chill and knowledgeable.

    I had an awesome palate experience. I highly recommend. You will not be disappointed. We tried…read morealmost all the entrees

AMBIANCE: Parking: Welcome to Old San Juan, it get get pretty busy - best to carpool or do public transportation. Seating: Indoor seating or private cabana set ups for groups. Room for a total of 100 people. Feels: Welcome to Old San Juan, a mix of touristy and culture. The spot itself is popular for locals and tourists. As for the space itself, what's unique about this spot is this place isn't just one bar. It's actually a series of connected rooms (about 6-7 different spaces), each with its own vibe - speak easy, dance, casual, house, live music and more! I'm surprised each room can contain it's sounds while maintaining its own energy. It feels like a speakeasy maze meets nightlife experience. Dim lighting, vintage touches, and just enough chaos in a good way. DRINKS/EXPERIENCE It was such a fun night, not sure what I ordered but there is an abundance of flavors as every room has different selections. But popular drinks if you're looking for guidance - lavendar mule, espresso martini, a classic mojito. They got the classic to your well-crafted cocktails. Some spots provide food while others is sip and chill or sip and dance. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Fast-paced but solid. Staff keeps up with the crowd and still manages to be engaging. TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars! Good choices, reasonable prices, and a vibe like no other. As a gemini that can be quite indecisive, I enjoyed this spot - especially with its multiple options. This is more than a bar - it's an experience. A spot where the night can go longer than expected. TIPS: * Walk through ALL the rooms--you'll miss half the experience if you don't
