I saw several videos about Christianson's prior to going to the PR. Our waiter was amazing and knowledgeable of the menu. He was attentive to our request. The food was delicious. I got the Guava Strawberry French toast. The front of the restaurant is beautiful and aesthetically pleasing. The issues were the environment. The restaurant was not very clean. The restroom was dirty. There was not a lot of lighting in the area they sat us in. Overall, I would try again if the made the necessary adjustments.

French Toast Combos

Wouldn't recommend (brunch). Came in for brunch, they don't do reservation unless party of 6 or more, so we came around 12pm and quoted about 45-minute wait but were able to get us a table in 15 minutes. The restaurant is quite sectioned off, when you walk in, they have rooms that go all the way to the back of the restaurant. They had an array of music that was playing, wasn't too loud, lots of tables for larger parties. This was definitely one of the more upbeat brunch restaurants. For their mimosas, they advertise the $35pp but do not advertise the time limit and the restriction for its distribution if not everyone at the table is doing bottomless. The champagne/carafes are not brought if only one person orders which isn't really the issue but the issues lies in the fact that you are only getting your refills at the servers/food runner's discretion and especially in only a one-hour time limit (which bottomless usually runs for 1.5-2 hours). That was definitely the case when we went, I only received 3 refills because our server was very busy and could not tend to get the refills in a timely manner; seemed like a waste in my opinion Either increase the time limit or bring a self-dispensing system to the table; those are the solutions. For the food, we order French Toast Combos and the Good Morning Burrito. The French toasts were very soft & fluffy, rich taste with every bite, no notes, perfect. Came with crispy bacon and soft-medium scrambled eggs (Rating: 8.9/10). For the Good Morning Burrito, I was unaware that it came with guacamole, which I don't really prefer, but it came in chunk so was able to be easily removed. Besides that, I got the burrito with bacon, and it was absolutely amazing. Fries on the side were hot and crispy (Rating: 9.0/10). Pricing also was not bad as well for the food. All in all, the only good part about this restaurant was the food, no complaints with the food but the service wasn't too timely. I don't also appreciate the server putting 18% down for himself on the handheld pay kiosk, seen it happen and it didn't register in my head until after the payment went through due to me thinking it was an automatic gratuity type of situation when it was not. That really should earn this place a 1-star because if I wasn't in a good mood, that would definitely be a grievance I would bring up in that moment. Overall, I would not come back; we really came because we thought they were one of the few places with bottomless mimosas but now looking at how they conduct that, it is not worth it at all.

Such a good brunch spot! We came here during my bachelorette weekend and did the bottomless brunch and had the best time. The drinks kept coming, the food was delicious, and the portions were HUGE. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful, and it was the perfect place for a group brunch before starting our day. The staff was also great and kept everything flowing even with a bigger group. Definitely recommend for a fun bottomless brunch in Puerto Rico, we loved it!

puerto rican breakfast

Came here one morning with my friends and we had high expectations because of the rating, but our experience did not reflect the good reviews. First of all, the service was meh.. The servers kind of seemed like they had better things to do rather than serve us. At one point we asked someone for extra plates for sharing and he said he would get some, but then we saw him come back two or three times to help other tables without our plates and we had to ask someone else. The flavors of the food were all over the place. We wanted to try the Dominican breakfast but they were out, so we got the Puerto Rican breakfast which came with rice, tater tots, eggs, toast, and spam. The spam was EXTREMELY salty - spam is already quite salty as it is but this spam tasted like they added extra salt. The eggs were super bland. We also got the cinnamon roll pancakes which were extremely sweet, but I'll give that one a pass since it kind of implies that in the name. Maybe we just went on an off day, but my friends and I were quite disappointed with our experience here.

The vibe of the entrance was beautiful! The server was kind and very attentive. The food was good, eggs were a little overcooked but the French toast was delicious. I would've liked for the restaurant to be cleaner.

I went in for breakfast this morning. Upon arrival I was sat at a high top in the front portion of the restaurant. The music was playing super loud but I was by myself so I guess I had noone to talk to otherwise it might have been too much. I initially ordered the passion fruit juice and was super excited about it but informed they did not have it. I got the orange juice instead. I then had the French toast combo that came with eggs and sausage. You could have chosen bacon or ham instead. The food was good. The server was attentive but confused the heck out of me into paying cash because of some way they get paid and he adds checks together. I still don't know what he was explaining but I paid with cash instead of my card that I already had out and ready.

Strawberry guava cream cheese filled French toast
Kerri C.

If you're seeking an amazing brunch, go to Christianson and choose one of their French toast options. Just wow. I got the strawberry and guava cream cheese filled one, and completely failed at finishing it though it was amazing. Probably because I also wanted something savory and got chicken empanadas. I also highly recommend those! My boyfriend also really liked his chicken and waffles. You won't be disappointed starting your day off here!

The food itself is very good, I wouldn't say it's really Puerto Rican food as it's mostly catered towards tourists. The service is quick but not overly friendly, just a get in get out type environment. The French toast is very good however

Domincan breakfast
Sila R.

Wow, wow, WOW! Everything was amazing--and absolutely delicious. I was there for four days and ended up going twice because I couldn't get enough. The first visit, I had the breakfast burrito... perfection. The second time, I tried the Dominican breakfast--OMG! The portions alone could feed three people. Both times, I ordered a latte and a strawberry margarita, and they were just as great as the food. The music was a vibe, and the staff really made the experience unforgettable--friendly, attentive, and super engaging. They were dancing, singing, even doing little tricks--it felt like dinner and a show! The place itself is adorable and perfect for pictures. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting--you won't regret it! My friends had Avacado toast, PR breakfast. and French toast. Never disappointed!

Superstar with Cinnamon Roll French Toast
Erica A.

The Verdict: Delicious Food, Distracted Service Here is the quick breakdown of my experience: * Pros: The food was amazing and incredibly satisfying. You'll definitely leave full. The interior vibe is also really cool. * Cons: The music is way too loud for conversation, and the service is very slow. The staff spent more time on their phones than helping customers. Bottom Line: Come for the food, but expect a long wait and subpar service.

We went here again this morning since our other morning breakfast was good. We got here 5 minutes after they opened at 8am Tuesday morning. My husband ordered the breakfast burrito and they were out of the wraps. He got the American with sausage. I ordered French toast. They were out of ALL French toast and offered pancakes ! I ordered the American with ham. My husband asked for hot sauce - guess what? They were out of that too!! Our bread/ toast had a funny / odd taste today. Different than the other day. I wonder if they ran out of butter and used something else ? Horrible experience and how can a breakfast place open up without certain staples ? Stop at the grocery store before you open.

A popular, trendy brunch spot that absolutely lives up to the hype. We arrived when it was just a tad busy but were still seated fairly quickly, which was a great start. The music was bumping, the vibes were vibing, and the atmosphere felt fun and energetic without being overwhelming. The staff were great--friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. The food and drinks were delicious, and the menu has so many good options I honestly wish I had a bigger appetite to try them all. I started with an espresso martini and loved that they used real espresso (the only way to drink it). For an appetizer, I ordered the chicken empanada, which had great flavor and a nice little kick. For my entrée, I ordered the guava strawberry cheesecake French toast with a side of eggs and turkey--soooo good. So good. I ate every single bite. I finished with their hibiscus magic tea, which was refreshing and delicious. This is exactly the kind of place you want to be at for brunch in San Juan. Highly recommend.

Steve M.

Food: the food is amazing. The eggs, waffles, chicken, Dominican breakfast, eggs, and the fruits everything is so fresh and delicious. Service: my goodness the service was epic and personal. Our waiter Jesus is nothing short of amazing. The energy, attention, and personality he brings to our table is natural. He continuously engaged with use and provided his honesty in our ordering. Jesus is highly recommended when you come to this place. Ambiance: the entire place is decor for the holiday season, clean, spacious, and provide a safe space for friends or date night. Overall score 4.9/5.0

We sat down for dinner at 7:45 and did not receive our drinks until 8:20, even though we put in our order as soon as we sat down... and asked politely how much longer until our drinks would come out... twice. Food did not come out for an hour and half, it was cold by the time we got it. Mac and cheese is not great cold. The ribs are extremely overcooked and like eating beef jerky. Drinks were okay, but by the time we got them everyone's cocktails were watered down, as well as the soft drinks. The ambiance was not great either since everyone around us was visibly frustrated by the wait times and lack of service, a table across flagged the waitress multiple times to ask where their stuff was. The food was decent, but again, cold. The wait times were no joke. We wrapped up our 7:45 dinner around 10, simply because of how long it took to be served. Our waitress came to our table maybe 3 times total, we would have to stand and find her to figure out where our food/drinks were. They were also out of a good majority of items on the menu when we tried to order them. Overall I unfortunately don't recommend! Price, service, and food are not great.

It felt so nice after getting overheated right before we got there. One thing I noticed while wandering around Old San Juan is that some restaurants likely survive on location and foot traffic alone, while others earn people seeking them out. Semilla definitely felt like the latter. It's tucked just around the corner from some of the busiest pedestrian areas, so it felt like we escaped the crowds for a little while without actually going very far. Overall, I'd happily come back. If you're staying nearby and looking for a good meal without being surrounded by the busiest tourist crowds, Semilla is well worth checking out.

We ordered three of their frozen chocolate drinks, and every single one was absolutely delicious. Thankfully, it wasn't busy when we stopped by, so it was the perfect place to cool off and take a break from the heat. The café had a modern, inviting atmosphere, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. I asked if one of the frozen drinks could be split for the kids, and although they didn't split it for us, they happily gave us two extra cups so we could divide it ourselves. It was a simple gesture that we really appreciated. The frozen chocolate drink was rich, creamy, refreshing, and perfectly chocolatey without being overly sweet. Even the whipped cream was delicious, especially with the chocolate pieces on top. Everyone in our group loved it, and it quickly became our favorite sweet treat of the trip. Whenever we're craving something cold and chocolatey during our stay in Puerto Rico, this will definitely be our go-to spot. We can't wait to come back and try their bonbons before we head home!

I've bought them at the grocery store for my mother over the years when I couldn't find Menier. I was hoping to see some unique desserts at Chocobar Cortés. Let's just say that the chocobar at this location was not what I was expecting. It's like an express version of their original one in Old San Juan. This is located in the lobby of the Condado Palm Hotel. There are 2 entrances. Don't make the same mistake we did by trying to access at street level. That door is locked. You'll need to enter through the hotel lobby. The service is very slow here. There was only one other person there. We ordered a box of 6 chocolates and payed for it. I'm guessing he was making a drink for the other guest because he asked us to wait a few minutes. It ended up being longer so he told his colleague (who just came back from a break) to make up the chocolate box for us. Unfortunately, it took even longer as this other guy was more interested in the 2 young girls who just walked in. The chocolate bonbons were good, but nothing unique. It's the same artisan chocolates that you see everywhere for the same high price. Perhaps this location is better for their specialty cocktails in the evening time. I was looking forward to trying the choco-latte at some point. I doubt there will be a next time.
