Service was terrible. We waited 20 minutes before our drinks came to the table, our 3 appetizers came before any water hit the table. The waitress said she didn't know we didn't get our drinks. They were out of almost everything we ordered - they were out of lobster rolls but had lobster tails...I got lobster bisque with two other people at the table.

Service is relaxed, I got a great table at 1 pm on a Friday and everyone around was just in full vacation mood. I got the calamari, mashed taro and passion fruit mocktail.

We brought an elderly friend to dine at The Atlantic at the Tryst. We planned to dine timing it…read morewith the sunset. I made the reservation on OpenTable. When we arrived for our reservation, it took awhile to be acknowledged and finally seated by the staff. When we were ready to order, our friend called our server, Enrique, to let him know. His reaction took us by surprise. He proceeded to tell our elderly friend that she needed to be more patient with him. He said that his section was full and that he was working alone. It was a very awkward moment and almost put a damper on our dining experience. We felt terrible for our dear friend who felt disrespected and humbled. Having worked in service industries for decades, we are fully aware of how stressful a dining room full of diners can be for a server. In this case however, we noticed that he only had 3 tables and that he was being assisted by other staff members. The manager, a very gracious host, seemed to sense something was not quite right. He paid special attention to our friend and managed to turn an uncomfortable situation into a pleasant one. The food was good, not great, but the setting was absolutely stunning. For Enrique, we left the minimum tip amount: 15% although we cleave at least 20%. 15% was a large tip in this instance. We left it because we figured that they might pool their tips and we didn't want to penalize all of the staff members. We'll return but only to the bar to enjoy the amazing view.

It was recommended by one of our tour guides so it is a great option for both locals and tourists. It had a nice atmosphere and very large menu with many different types of options. The Frutti di mare was one of the best pastas I've ever had! It had almost every type of seafood you could want. A great option for someone who wants to try a bit of everything. It was large enough to satisfy you but not too large where you have to take leftovers it back to your hotel. It also came with a salad and delicious bread. My husband ordered the yucafongo pollo, and was very impressed. It was also filling and well made. The drink menu also had a lot of options. I went with the sangria which was super tasty! It's more on the fruity side. Our service was great and we didn't have to wait long for a table or our food, although it seemed busy. Whether you live in the area or are just on vacation, I would recommended trying it out!

Everything was fresh and delicious! The portions were perfect for sharing and had a wonderful flavor! The shrimp tacos were lightly breaded and had a good flavor. The nachos had fresh ahi tuna and a great flavor with the seaweed salad! The service was good and fast too! The price was a bit high, but it's what you expect in a hotel lobby.

Fantastic smoothies and Puerto Rican cuisine!…read more My friends and I stopped by Atabey for lunch and there was no wait for a table. The space is small, but nicely renovated! The menu is expansive and has lots of vegetarian and vegan options. I got the Keep Calm Colada smoothie, which was so refreshing and perfectly sweet! We started with the Vegan Sampler and it was delicious! The hummus was super fresh. For my main, I ordered the Classic Mofongo with garlic cream and a black bean patty. You could tell that everything was made in house. It was unbelievably flavorful and very filling. Highly recommend!

My girlfriend had the baguette which she absolutely loved and my grandson had the cauliflower flat bread. Every dish was very good. The only negative is that they are a bit slow in serving their food. It seems like they may need some extra help. But overall it was very good. The restaurant is small but well decorated, a cool vibe. They also have outdoor dining with a few tables. A really cool spot!!

This spot is in Condado Beach, and when we first arrived, we wanted to sit outside for the view…read more Unfortunately, there was a very loud party out there, and the area was also pretty dirty it looked like previous guests' tables hadn't been cleaned yet. Because of that, my group decided to sit inside instead. Interestingly, the same loud party eventually came inside and kindly sent us a round of drinks, which was a really nice gesture. We then ordered our own drinks virgin passionfruit mojitos but they tasted watered down and weren't very good. For food, I ordered the mofongo with ceviche as an appetizer, and it was really good definitely the highlight for me. Others in my group ordered pasta, shrimp, skirt steak, and chicken. Overall, they enjoyed their meals, except for the chicken, which wasn't great, so it was mostly left uneaten. Overall, the experience was just okay. The view outside is nice, but between the cleanliness and drink quality, I'd probably stick to ordering takeout instead of dining in. I might come back to sit outside for the view if the conditions were better.

The order of beans was also good, reminded me of my childhood meals lol. Space is tight, but you'll get seated quickly as the staff are pretty attentive.

I'll admit, the ambiance made me hesitate for a moment and wonder if that said something about the food. Turns out, I had nothing to worry about. I ordered the red snapper, and it was genuinely excellent. The sauce was the kind you don't forget: deep, flavorful, and perfectly paired with the fish. The fish was beautifully cooked - crispy on the outside while maintaining moisture. No overcooked meat here. Even the rice stood out, which says a lot. Everything worked together in a way that felt thoughtful and memorable. Despite having limited time on my Puerto Rico trip, this is one of those meals I'd actually come back for, maybe even order the exact same dish again. The flavors really stayed with me, and I already want to take them home.

Cayo Caribe was overall a 7/10 for us. The flavors were good, but my chicken and my husband's steak…read moreboth came out dry, even though they were seasoned well. The rest of the dishes we ordered were just okay. The service was a little slow, and it took some time for our food to arrive, although the staff was friendly. A standout for us was the avocado salad. They topped it with a generous amount of perfectly sliced avocado, beautifully fanned out across the entire top. It must have been a big avocado because it covered the whole salad -- fresh, creamy, and absolutely delicious. But the true showstopper -- the dish that stole the whole night -- was the empanadas. I am an empanada snob, and these were honestly some of the best I've ever had in my life. The dough was flaky, moist, and flavorful, and both the beef and chicken fillings were incredible. I would return solely for these empanadas!

And it came with rice and house made beans. All in all, this place is a must try for anyone visiting San Juan, Puerto Rico! The food, service, and price were all great!

Amazing Experience at Serafina!…read more I'm visiting Puerto Rico for the first time and staying at La Concha Resort, and Serafina truly made my trip even more special. Last night around 10:20 PM, I ordered the pesto gnocchi to my room and was so impressed the food arrived incredibly fast, perfectly hot, and absolutely delicious. I loved it so much that I came back today! This time I tried the Arugula Parmigiano salad and the passion fruit mojito. Everything was so fresh, full of flavor, and beautifully prepared. The service, the taste, and the overall experience were exceptional. Highly recommend Serafina to anyone visiting San Juan I can't wait to come back!

The place still look very fancy, but I've been fancier places... First, it is definitely on the pricey side. We ordered three pastas, three appetizers, three drinks, and 2 Fiji waters bottles -- and were also charged for the birthday cake. The total came out to almost $400, service fee of $50! which was surprising. While the staff was amazing, attentive, and very kind (I truly have no complaints about the service), the food unfortunately didn't match the price point. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't memorable or worth what we paid. Overall, great service -- but for the cost, I expected more from the food. Also be prepared cause they took over two hours to bring the food out and I had reservations as well

One of the hostesses was noticeably rude at the start, which set an uncomfortable tone.

As a Puerto Rican, that's honestly a bit disappointing and feels out of place. That said, the food itself has been very good.
