Sara C.

A friend and I were in Puerto Rico for a week, and were looking to visit a club one night while there. We settled on Club Brava because it was close to our lodging and had some good reviews. It was definitely a bumping place with great music and some tasty drinks. The music was bangin' a little TOO loud for our old ears, so we had to step outside a few times to catch our breath. It may be for a little bit younger of a crowd, based on the decibel level and the music choices, but if you're on the hunt for a fun nightclub atmosphere, then Club Brava may be a good choice for you!

Proof of "Pisces" being misspelled on our birthday sign

I chose Club Brava to bring in my 50th while vacationing in Puerto Rico earlier this month. It all seemed so promising. I was encouraged by the reasonable VIP pricing and timely responses from "Billy" and "Adam" when making my 3/15 reservation for 15 people; 10 guys and 5 gals. There were 7 of us celebrating March birthdays; 5 guys and 2 gals. We refer to our celebration as "Pisces Bash," and this one was proving to be the biggest, the largest yet! We spent the earlier part of the day doing a casual hike in the El Yunque Rainforest followed by a relaxing stop at Luquillo Beach. That was followed by a fantastic dinner at the Meat Market which is collocated in the Fairmont El San Juan Hotel with Club Brava. When my party and I arrived to the club just after midnight 3/16 - my actual birthday, things went south very quickly. First, I never received guidance from Adam about the strict dress code (two of my friends were denied entry because they were wearing shorts; we saw a woman wearing shorts after entering the club. She also was of a different race than me and my party.) Second, my "table" was very small and only provided seating for five (keep in again that my original group size was 15; 10 men and 5 women), and there was no place for our drinks to rest when we were not drinking them. There was no table. It was more like a booth. Bryana did her best to serve my party but forewarned me that as the night progressed, she was going to be "busy" and may not be immediately available if we needed her right away. To make matters worse, she misspelled "Pisces" on our birthday sign. I became most disheartened when Bryana inquired around 2:30am how much longer I would be staying. Unabashedly, she shared that she was interested in reselling our VIP "table." :( The worst part, perhaps, is when I viewed my receipt after I returned home. I noticed that there was an extra tip in the amount of $176.45 that I did not authorize. It also did not reflect, or was not adjusted for, the deposit in the amount of $262.50 that I made to secure my reservations. To date, I have only received an apology from Adam in the form of a text. There has been no response from Club Brava's management.

The club is inside a hotel. If you are not staying at the hotel then you have to pay 15 for girls and 20 for guy. The drinks are not that expensive at all. There were two rooms. The music is a little bit of everything.

First of all... THIS CLUB IS A MUST IF YOU'RE STAYING IN PR! Its the nightlife of San Juan and you need to experience it! Upon the walk in I was dancing! Music from all over all era's and the modest modern for the young crowd that flows through there looking for a good time. The venue has two floors and bars on both levels. The cover charge is $20 and they follow a strict classy dress-code. It is located within the San Juan Hotel & Casino; which is a very fancy hotel within itself. The DJ played tunes from way back the good ole' throwbacks of R&B and club even REGGAE! That's what I like! I was not disappointed at all, the ambiance is very captivating and there were no hostilities everyone just having a good time. I wish clubs in New York could be like this EVERY SATURDAY! You'll have an amazing time don't miss it!

2 shots of Patron and 2 Medallas. $14 beat that.

Came to Brava on a Saturday night. The Mister and I went over around 10 to inquire about the exact dress code and cover, which was button downs for guys and no shorts. The cover is $20. We arrived around midnight and waited in line for about 10 minutes. Based on the reviews, I thought the line would be wrapped around the building and people would be super agitated waiting to get it...totally not the case. The venue is really nice, lots of people on stage dancing and having a good time. We went to the bar twice. The first round (on him) was $30...2 shots of Patron and 2 Medallas. The second round (on me) was $14...2 shots of Patron and 2 Medallas. SWISH!! Must be a perk of being a girl. ;-) OH! And the Patron was served in champagne flutes...FAN-CY! When we first got there the DJ was playing hip-hop music to House beats...that changed about 30-40 minutes after we got there. Both floors were playing hip-hip, both old and new. We moved around quite a bit to get a feel for the club and just to see what was going on. There were SEVERAL bachelorette parties happening, 1 Bride-to-be was even donning a veil bedazzled with penises. Hilarious. I counted 5 poles that could be used for stripping, though the women I saw were mainly using them for some twirly dancing. The V.I.P areas were really cute and spread out on both the first and second floor. With a flight to catch the next day, we only stayed until about 3 and people were still pouring in. Brava was great! I would love to go there with my girls.

The club is located inside the El San Juan hotel. Self Parking in a garage is available and paid on an hourly basis. I paid $9 for about 3 hours give or take. Ladies free before 11pm. I went on a Saturday. Drinks are on the pricy side. $13 plus tax for some Hennessy and lime juice... Bathrooms were ok, Lord knows the ladies room is usually a mess in clubs. The Djs were very good, they played a large variety of music: throwback hip hop, dancehall, local salsa...etc There was something to satisfy every taste to be honest. I also noted people from different age groups in there. The club is really just like any US (think Miami) club, it attracts lots of tourists, but there are also plenty of locals. Security is super tight. They searched the hell out of me and carefully inspected the inside of my tiny clutch. They took away my little plastic rat tail comb because it is pointy... The horror! They must not know what that comb means to us black women LOL how am I supposed to "fix" my hair and get under those tracks when i go to the ladies room? Y'all can't seriously think that comb could be a weapon!! But it is all good, I definitely appreciate the extra security. I had a ball out there, other than the pricy drinks, thumbs up from me!

Yes! That kinda music

Colorism where it wasn't expected. For the sake of this review it important to know that I along…read morewith one of my other friends are two light skinned black women but the rest of our friend group are darker skinned black women. At first, the food was pretty okay. I got waited on and served relatively quickly. However, my darker skinned friends had to wait a longer time not just to order, but also to get their food. One of my darker skinned friends ordered three empanadas and only received two. When she tried to speak to one of the servers about getting her third empanada they refused. She said she was willing to pay for it, but they refused to serve her what she asked. Then, they said there's always a problem with "you people". Then all of a sudden they lied and said she was trying to scam them. As we're walking out, they start cursing at us and saying things like " I hope everyone except you (referring to my darker skinned friend) has a good day". The servers were overall very disrespectful, they cursed, and they were overly unprofessional. So even though the food was okay this was a horrible experience. As we were leaving, we saw two other darker skinned black women walk up to try and order. We told them about our experience and the servers started lying and saying that we are there every day and always causing problems. This was also untrue. That was the first time we've ever been to this restaurant. We walked a block down the street to wait for our car service. Then moments later, we bumped into the same dark skinned black women we saw earlier and they told us that their presence wasn't even acknowledged. So like I said even though the food was pretty okay. It wasn't good enough to be okay with the blatant colorism where it wasn't expected.

What a perfect little hidden gem right off the beach in Isla Verde. Torres' place has that "beach…read moreshack" vibe that makes you want an ice cold beer and a tostone after lounging in the sun or hitting the waves. It's a teeny spot with only about 10 seats, so you may have to wait. We were lucky to go on a cloudy day and snagged a little table. Chicken wings, pulled pork tacos, and the pork stuffed tostones are all yummy. There's an herby green sauce on them that is out of this world. Fresh and bright. Mojito was good, I'd steer clear of the margarita (seems like a mix is used). The OceanLab IPA was local and yummy.

El Daiquiri Lounge provided one of the most fun nights I had while in Puerto Rico!…read more My husband and I were fortunate enough to have an airbnb in the condominium that the Lounge is housed in. I had seen the reviews on yelp, but had no idea that we were staying in the same building. We asked a bartender at a hotel bar about EDL and quickly discovered we had walked past it on our way out of the condo earlier that evening. Let me start by saying that this place doesn't get going until midnight, which is normal for people like us who are from Miami...for others the hours may be a little tough. The owner/bartender Freddie is as hospitable as can be. We were welcomed into the small old fashioned bar right away. There was a mix of locals and folks like us from the states, but everyone fit in. We happened to arrive shortly before midnight on 2/13, and Freddie's birthday was on 2/14. Some of his friends had brought balloons and a birthday cake which he shared with us. It was an awesome way to experience our first night in PR! We went again on that Saturday and there was a 'real' birthday celebration going on! The bar itself is like stepping into a time machine. Freddie has pictures of his friends on the walls from years past. There are old poker and gaming machines around and an overwhelming feeling of nostalgia. And this is before the karaoke starts! He has a great list and books in English and Spanish. We are NOT good singers, but the locals coming to EDL could rival the best singers at any karaoke bar you've been to. It can be a bit intimidating! The drinks are nothing fancy, just good solid classics and a small beer selection. If you're staying in Isla Verde I highly recommend spending a late night here. It is in a gated condo, so the security guard or a resident must let you in.

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

If you're visiting Puerto Rico, you HAVE to check this place out. Great service, amazing people, good drinks, and an unforgettable vibe. K is the real MVP, and we're already planning to return on our next trip! Highly recommend.
