The view is amazing, the food (I had the Birria tacos) perfectly presented and beautifully cooked. The service was excellent and the bartender (who I think looked like Robert Downy Jr) made fantastic cocktails. The whole vibe was incredible and I will be making this a return destination, and you should too.

I'm only giving a 3 based on service and the cocktail only. This place is the old Tony's restaurant…read morewhich was a staple for years. That being said it is decorated nice and plenty of seating in and outdoors. Being that I live in Texas now I eat at Mexican restaurants quite often. As we were seated the waitress told us "what sets us apart is we have Mexican cooks" so initially we were excited to try. However, when the food came we were so disappointed. Maybe the cooks from Mexico were off that day. Lol Absolutely no flavor. No seasoning. So bland. I ordered the pozole, it was broth that tasted like hot water. Awful and I am a huge fan of Pozole. The hominy was hard and not cooked. The flautas were edible but again the chicken was bland. Children's burrito same. Subpar. My husband ordered the al pastor tacos and those were not al pastor lol Same flavorless meat. The guacamole Was a no go since using avocados from PR make it taste odd. The parcha margarita was made very well. The place was clean and the staff was great. I surely hope the cooks aren't dialing it down for the Puerto Rican palette. Some salt/pepper and seasonings go a long way. Use them.

During our trip to Puerto Rico, this place for tapas and drinks is the best so far. My husband and…read moreI ordered several tapas, and all were delicious. The salad was nice and crisp. The Arancini was a treat! I loved the oil and basil. We followed that with the ravioli.. Let me tell you that coconut basil sauce is money! It's so addictive. I dipped the seta into it.. And we enjoyed the sautéed mushrooms and the lagosta en mantequilla. I didn't take a picture of the lobster because it took me two seconds to demolition. But it's definitely worth it. My favorite was the Don Pito. I'm a fan of a good martini espresso, but this is another level. If you enjoy bourbon and coffee, be prepared for a party in your mouth! We will be returning for dinner and dessert during our stay here. The chef deserves two thumbs up, and the service was definitely on point. I loved that our plates were not served all at once.. We were not overwhelmed, and that bartender was just shaking it the entire time we were there. 10/10
