I first discovered La Grieta approximately two years ago during a brief stop in Old San Juan. The…read moreatmosphere and warmth of our initial experience was so great that I made it a deliberate mission to find it again when visiting recently. We were thrilled when we finally walked through the door again after wracking our brains to remember our favorite spot in Old Town. Upon entering, we were greeted by a young woman who, mentioned it was her very first day as an assistant to the bartender. Despite being brand new, she was warm, engaged, and genuinely welcoming, excited for us that we had made it back after several years, and impressed with our efforts. Shortly thereafter the bartender on duty approached us mid-conversation, visibly irritated. When I mentioned that we hadn't yet decided on drinks but were being well taken care of in the meantime, she interrupted sharply to bark at us that she was the bartender and the ONLY one who could help us. The tone was unwelcoming enough that after a moment, my companion and I determined that we would prefer to move on and left without ordering. The atmosphere is truly special, and it deserves to be matched by the experience guests receive at the bar. Our experience was simply not the vibe that night, and I truly was disappointed FOR the new hire who was doing what she should in engaging us until we could be served. I sincerely hope to return on a future visit to San Juan and to rediscover the experience that first brought me back to La Grieta.

Yes, come here for dinner!! This restaurant was fantastic through and through - hands down one of…read morethe best we visited on the island. The elote ribs were such a fun and satisfying appetizer, and the ceviche was incredibly fresh, packed with flavor, and had such a great variety of textures. The cocktails were amazing too. But the gnocchi!! My partner and I genuinely agreed it was the best gnocchi we've ever had - and that includes all the restaurants we've tried on the mainland. Absolutely incredible. Oh! And all while having a beautiful view of the ocean. Highly, highly recommend. It was the perfect way to end a day at the beach. And a special shoutout to Juan for taking such great care of us and making sure we had a wonderful experience!

Service was abysmal- like worse than substandard, even for island time. 30 minutes after being…read moreseated, we still had no drinks in front of us and our waiter only offered 'specials' were appetizers.... Not going well for a Saturday night fine dining experience, right??? We were also told at that time we had to place appetizer and main orders at the same time -- keep in mind I've not yet placed a drink order... No seafood tower... it was retired on the menu yet we came almost 3,000 miles for it), and a fine dining menu that came super far from even being close to fine. No celiac options and while billed a great option for fresh inventive dishes, we found this place a huge let down and not willing to try. The front end staff needed a lot of help. The menu looks unrehearsed and neglected. I was glad to not spend my money here. Thankfully, we could leave before the $50 bottle of wine we ordered arrived. We went elsewhere!

I enjoyed a glass of their Chateau de la Pierre Gamay and mi amor opted for their Santurce Prison IPA. We both enjoyed our drinks and the wine was a pretty generous pour. We scored a nice two top overlooking the cathedral, right next to the railing. Service started out great but then disappeared when it was time to check out and pay, so we had to ask another server take our payment. Not a huge deal for us as we were not in a rush to leave, but maybe be mindful of this if you have another commitment after dining here. This bar is accessed via the Decanter hotel entrance. Definitely would return here. When we first arrived the atmosphere was a little suboptimal due to a large group of about 8, but once that group left, it quieted down and was mostly couples of all ages and small groups of 3-4.

The server was completely informative and nice. I would so go back again the pizza was fresh and came out of the brick oven for everyone to see because the restaurant has a kind of open floor concept where you can see them cooking the pizza pies which I thought was great it's a great place to come with friends family or just by yourself. There is also a bar for you to sit at if you don't want to get a table. The wait was long because a lot of people want to come here and eat and vibe out but it was worth it the food was amazing! Can't wait to come back when I visit Puerto Rico again!

We had the staff chose what pizza for us to eat and I'm so glad we did, THANK YOU GUYS FOR THIS EXPERIENCE AND YOUR HOSPITALITY

Loved watching everyone no matter how old get into the groove. - El Final: red room with DJ booth for more dancing fun - El Desvío: Super small 10-seat candlelit area slightly hidden - La Cubanita: where we parked ourselves to chill Lowlights: - Weekend nights gets very crowded with a line out front in the heart of the nightlife area in old town.

I never had a bad drink here out of the two nights and many drinks had. The layout is amazing with multiple rooms, bars, and DJs. Anything from techno, pop mixes, to latin. Yes i did salsa with the love of my life. No that has no influence on my review haha. Definitely recommend for a night out!! During the weekday we didn't have a line but it was still full inside. On a Friday we had a short line at 10:30 and it was packed.

All in all, I wish that there was some sort of covering outside so that you could enjoy the view and the lagoon while sipping on a drink. But perhaps that's inevitable given the glaring sun. All in all, beautiful hotel and decor. I'd definitely be back.
