Levant was a delight from start to finish! Anyone rating this place lower than a 4 has lost their mind. This is fine dining with finesse and very attentive details. As someone who lived in NYC and San Francisco, this restaurant is right up there with a Michelin star restaurant. From the cocktails to the last bite, it was amazing. The branzino and swordfish were the favorites of the table and we would all go again! The service was excellent and the view was unbelievable at sunset! read more

Overall, sorely missed the mark and started off on the wrong foot. We had a 5:45 reservation the day we landed and our flight was delayed. I ran to the restaurant upon check in to see if we could move the reservation later and was advised they were fully booked and couldn't do so. Understandable if true. We come in at 5:45 to an empty restaurant, two other tables were seated. No reason to make us rush. The hostess then brings up that we requested a window table in our reservation, as we were celebrating a special occasion. She then advised that she could not seat our party of 3 at a window table because those had 4 seats. She advised they would "lose a chair" if we sat at a window table for 4 and she could not accommodate our request because she had "other reservations" for the window seats. Mind you, I also had a reservation who requested a window seat to celebrate a special occasion. The whole situation was strange at best, I've never heard of such a thing in all of my years in fine dining (which this was not). We were seated in a table in the back of an empty restaurant. Lovely. We were at the restaurant until 8pm. As expected, 2 window tables were never filled during our extended dinner. Multiple window tables with 3 people instead of 4. Children present in the dining room window tables in sports jerseys. If you can look past this when celebrating a special occasion, then eat here and order pasta and the hummus. The other dips left plenty to be desired. The tzatziki was absolutely terrible. The unrefined hostess really soured a special dinner before it began, and the food left a lot to be desired. I wouldn't recommend for special occasions, or really any occasion at the price point. read more

Ruined my 30th birthday. Embarrassing, dismissive, and careless. I chose this restaurant to celebrate my 30th birthday, noted it on the reservation, and personally told both the host and our server when we arrived. Somehow, that information vanished into thin air. We were seated at a completely bare table while multiple tables around us had "Happy Birthday" and "Happy Anniversary" cards waiting for them. It was impossible not to notice. After pointing this out to our server and politely asking if we could also receive a birthday card, we were told, "Of course!" It never came. What did come instead was watching a couple seated after us receive the full treatment--acknowledgment, attention, and a birthday dessert--while my milestone birthday was completely ignored. No card. No dessert. No acknowledgment. Nothing. To make matters worse, we were incorrectly charged for an extra bottle of wine we never received. We were never shown an empty bottle, never told a new one was opened, and for all we know, we still had wine left. By this point, the experience had become so upsetting that we just wanted to leave rather than argue further on what was supposed to be a celebratory night. I did attempt to address these concerns with a manager. Unfortunately, that conversation was just as disappointing. He was dismissive, did not listen to what I was actually upset about, quietly removed the wine charge, and then went about his night. There was no apology, no acknowledgment of the inconsistent treatment, and no effort to understand why this experience was so upsetting. This wasn't just an "oversight"--it was careless, inconsistent service from start to finish, capped off by management that clearly did not care. If you're going to make a show of celebrating guests, do it equally--or don't do it at all. I'll never get my 30th birthday dinner back, but I can make sure others know what to expect. read more

Our food and service were fine. Another table ruined our experience. As we were sat, a woman at the next table was on FaceTime. We mentioned it to our waiter, and a manager did ask her to stop. She did, for a while. But as our food was being served, she was back on FaceTime. It was so distracting, I felt like I was in some airport or hotel lobby, not at all the fine dining establishment charging $30 for a cocktail and $60 for an entree. No one from service said anything, so we did, and she did end her call. No one came up to either of our tables afterward. It was just a disappointing experience, given I was so excited about everything I had read about the restaurant, the chef and the sous chef. read more

Gabriella was a wonderful server. The food was outstanding, including the best octopus we have ever had (...and this coming from my husband who lived in Spain for 5 years and who grandparents were all Spaniards). Don't miss having this dining experience. read more

Levant - The interior seashell ceiling. - Mediterranean Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

I was visiting PR and I knew I wanted a nice place for dinner and came across Levant. The restaurant itself is beautiful. They immediately saw it was my birthday from the reservation and wished me a happy birthday. I did think she could have provided us a better table. We tried to order a couple different wines that the hostess stated they were out of. I also heard someone else with the same complaint. I thought with this being fine dining if they were out of something guests should be informed in advance. The food was a hit or miss. I had the chicken which was cooked to perfection but to salty as in drink lots of water. Someone else had the pasta and clams and then another pasta dish they stated their dishes were just ok. They did provide me with a little birthday treat. The hostess did say the recently opened. The dishes were reasonably priced but I did feel the cocktail list it was way overpriced. You're pretty much just paying for the ambience. read more

Levant - The shoes we were wearing that they said were like beachwear - Mediterranean Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

This restaurant is certainly a culinary and elevated foodies dream. It is a menu that can be pricier than most of the local restaurants in the Condado beach strip. The service was too notch and we were served by a wait staff team of two, and as each meal was served a dissertation on the ingredients and their preparation. The restaurants's ambiance stems from the design, lighting and beach view from the wrap around seating but also from the center tables. Prepare for high end prices and high end ingredients. Perfect for a special occasion or just visiting from in town. read more

Couple things: 1. We missed our initial reservation because of a flight delay, so we came to the restaurant and asked for availability at the bar. Our hostess Destiny scoffed (in front of us) and whispered to her other host. We were like , oh, what a way to start the night but after a dismissive interaction we got seated. (Four young women, early 20s) 2. Our server seated us and asked sparking or still, and upon saying still he quickly walked away (before we could ask for tap-- which may not be an option here? Not sure). For the next hour the most prompt service was how quickly our water was topped up, and by the end of the night we opened the bill and realized we were charged $30 for three whole 1L bottles of water. 3. My friend Sophia ordered a $70 ribeye and she asked for rare. The meat came an absolutely medium rare - no blood, just pink and disappointment. 4. I was recommended the scallops - the special of the day. I was like, sure, let's do it. It was (1) scallop ($28), thinly sliced with a drizzle of ikura and oil. If you have eaten scallop before, you know that the two things to look for is taste and texture. The scallop melted in my mouth, but left behind a mildly pungent, slimy and bitter aftertaste. I looked out to the dark waters by the window and shed a fishy tear. We passed around the five slices of scallop to confirm our jurisdiction (yes, it was bitter and fishy), and then didn't finish the dish. Overall a great disappointment and the expensive inside joke for the rest of the trip. read more

Gorgeous restaurant but the staff is incredibly rude. I brought it to management's attention with zero accountability on their part. Unfortunate because we were all excited about seeing and experiencing this place. Service was so bad and the hostess at the front was so rude we walked out. read more

Levant is visually stunning -- an upscale, thoughtfully designed interior with warm lighting and sophisticated décor. It's definitely the kind of place that feels special when you walk in, ideal for occasions or intimate dinners. Food & Drinks We started with the trio of dips and warm pita, which was a great palate opener. The flavors were well-balanced, but we ran out of pita far too quickly for the amount of dip served -- a small but noticeable detail. I ordered the harissa chicken, which was tender and juicy, but the seasoning was overpowering in some bites. The sauce base was also intensely salty, which threw off the overall dish. The lamb chops were cooked beautifully -- tender with a flavorful crust, and paired well with the vegetables. The pasta dish, on the other hand, leaned heavily sour from the tomato, and the flavor profile felt unbalanced. ‍ Service & Hospitality Our server was attentive and accommodating, and the team went out of their way to bring a complimentary birthday dessert, which was a lovely touch. However, the pacing of the evening left a lot to be desired. From starters to mains to drinks, everything took an unusually long time. Our total dining time stretched to nearly three hours, and by the end, we were just eager to leave. Unique Selling Point Levant shines in atmosphere and presentation, and there are moments where the food lives up to the vibe. But the long wait times, overly bold seasoning, and inconsistency in flavor held it back from being a truly exceptional experience. read more

The food was good not great. Service was horrible. Juan our server disappeared for so long that we almost had to serve our own wine until another server came over. We did leave a nice gratuity but shouldn't have. We have been to Serafina several times and it's way better. Save money. Don't go There. It was not even busy. No excuse for the poor service. read more

The ambiance is what you're paying for. VERY overpriced. the food was nothing impressive, wasn't hot and was kindof bland for a michelin star chef. the service was nice but it felt like I was being watched by the staff the whole time. I would skip Levant and go to LaLa in San Juan! read more

Where do I even begin? Levant deserves 10 stars! Everything was incredible from start to finish. I came here to celebrate my birthday and they did not disappoint. The space itself is stunning. I was a little nervous at first because it is located inside of a hotel, however, they exceeded my expectations. Upon arrival we were greeted graciously and taken to our table where they had carefully placed a birthday note. The space is beautifully designed with incredible views of the ocean. The staff was so well informed about the menu and took the time to explain each and every dish, you can tell they are truly passionate about what they do, what they serve and how it is prepared. This was more than a birthday dinner, It was a culinary experience. The food was incredible everyone was so pleased with what they ordered not to mention at the end although we had ordered dessert they bought out a complementary birthday dessert and sang to me. They explained what the dessert was in detail. I don't have one bad thing to say about this restaurant truly the best meal I've had in a very long time and the best dining experience I've had in a long time I would fly back to Puerto Rico just to eat at Levant again. read more

Levant - Elegant atmosphere with great ocean views - Mediterranean Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

I unfortunately had a terrible experience. I did a reservation for 8:30 pm with the hope that I could still make it to my plans after. My first course did not arrive until 10:55pm. There were two tables near me. One was in front of me and the other behind me. They both received their meals before me because they were vocal about being upset. I chose an understanding approach of informing the server of the wait time and the fact that the table behind us and in from of us received their food ahead if us. The manager offered us nothing but wine. This was a terrible experience. The food wasn't anything to rave about, as expected, from a restaurant with a beautiful ambiance. I wouldn't come back. A two and a half hour wait time is not worth it. You would think that they would have the class to offer compensation for the meal. They weren't particularly rude but were very dismissive and didn't offer an explanation for why the other tables received food before my party. The other party was a bigger table. read more

Amazing meal. Great food with better portions than expected. Staff were knowledgeable and super helpful (even pointing out that certain oyster shells were sharp lol). The water is refilled with Evian water, and they no longer charge extra for it. And of course, the interior of the restaurant is incredible. read more

Levant just opened at La Concha Resort in late March 2025, and it's already the place everyone in San Juan is talking about -- and for good reason. The vibe is stunning -- think oceanfront views, cool beachy design, and a super stylish, but still relaxed, atmosphere. The food? Absolutely next-level. Their mezze is amazing (don't miss the whipped feta with local figs and honey), but the real star for me was the Harissa Roasted Chicken -- juicy, full of flavor, and paired with crispy riso al salto that I'm still dreaming about. The wine list is huge (over 400 options!) and really thoughtfully curated. Service was on point too -- friendly, knowledgeable, and they made us feel like VIPs. We had a great Benjamin Leroux Bourgogne blanc that complemented the food spectacularly. Pro tip: Save room for dessert. Their pomegranate marengka dessert is as gorgeous as it is delicious -- fresh, bright, and the perfect way to end an incredible meal. If you're visiting San Juan -- or lucky enough to live here -- Levant is absolutely worth it. Five stars all the way! read more

Snobby. Conveniently message you just under 24 hours before your reservation to "remind" you of their strict dress policy and then don't respond when you message back. As a reminder, if you cancel within 24 hours of your reservation they charge $25/person. Tried calling all next morning, the hotel claims to patch you through to their concierge who never picks up. Had to take time out of our day to walk over to be told "dress shorts would be a problem and won't be accepted", and they could not confirm whether or not we'd be charged for the cancellation despite numerous efforts to reach out read more

This was an out of body experience. Not only is the interior stunning and elevated but the service bartender and wait staff were extremely pleasant. My husband and I ordered the old fashioned and a martini and they were the best we've had! There were so many amazing food options to choose from, I had a hard time deciding I could've had one of everything, but we ended up ordering the filet and pesca del dia. The flavors were so complimentary and it was cooked perfectly. The same was true with dessert! I can't say enough good things about this place- we wish we could go back tonight!! read more

Overpriced plus they add service fees. Food is good but pricey! Check your receipt before tipping.

My wife and I arrived for dinner on time for a 7:15 reservation. The hostess would not seat us because I had on 'open toe shoes'. The dress code on Open Table says business casual. I was wearing khaki pants, a long sleeve blue collared shirt, and leather flip flops. Attached is a picture of us that night. I appreciate the value of dress codes to keep 'vibe' that the resturant is trying to achieve, but the hostess could have used better discretion. We're not exactly the kind of people you don't want in your restaurant. We walked down the road and ate at STK and had a great night. I would not go back here out of principle. Poor judgement by this restaurant. read more

Levant - Dressed for dinner. At some restaurants at least... - Mediterranean Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

Beautiful ambiance and renovation. Unfortunately the food poisoning I got within thirty minutes of leaving the restaurant was pretty awful. In fact it was so bad that I emailed the GM at the restaurant to make him aware. I asked for nothing but wanted to make him aware that something wasn't right with my dish. Rather than apologizing and providing solutions on what steps he would take to ensure this didn't happen again he was dismissive and patronizing. I was shocked considering this is a Michael White restaurant and I have always had A* service and food. The servers were all lovely but I would steer clear of the food unless you want a good 24 hours of being sick and out of commission. Such a shame. read more

We were unsure about dining here as some of the reviews mentioned food wasn't as great as expected given pricing. We weren't very hungry so ordered 3 appetizers and right away the waiter seemed turned off. We recieved our appetizers which were good, not amazing. Not once did our waiter (or anyone) ask us how our food was. Used dishes sat on the table not picked up. So. Would we dine here again, no. Disappointed given the expectations. Gorgeous setting though! read more

Levant - Fettuccine - Mediterranean Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

From the experience to the service to the food, top to bottom, phenomenal. As you may see from my past reviews, I usually lean towards moderate to cheap eats but we were looking for a special occasion spot and this place fit the bill. We're talking amuse-bouche, add-water-to-pill-for-towelette, gorgeous presentation of mouth-watering and unique-flavor-pairing meals. We chose three pots of hummus, tzatziki, and feta "for the table" which were served with piping hot pita and a side of pickles and olives. When I say "feta," I mean a delectable concoction of whipped feta with thin slices of chili peppers, a splash of lime, slivers of sweet fig, and local honey. Knowing we had to pace ourselves to make it to dessert, we skipped over the enticing starters and headed directly to the entrees: swordfish with black lentils and harissa chicken on a bed of riso al salto with an extra side of blistered patatas bravas. All amazing. For dessert, we were faced with the nearly impossible choice of several incredible options and went with two which I feel I cannot do justice to so will copy and paste from the menu: 1. Galaktoboureko- Semolina Custard, Phyllo, Cardamom Crumble, Lemon Olive Oil, Cardamom Gelato, Honey Spiced Syrup 2. Levant Budino- Mascarpone, Dark Chocolate & Coffee Crémeux, Feuilletine Milk Chocolate & Coffee Crumble, Coffee Gelee, Chocolate Tuile We could not have asked for a more pleasant experience. The interior decor was soothing and enchanting and our prime seats gave us an immersive view of the beach which was artwork itself. The entire staff was lovely and even gave us an unexpected bonus birthday dessert, complete with candle. This is the place to go for an elegant, rare treat. read more

Friends told me food was pretty good and the interior space is pretty special. It is pricey for Condado but I was prepared to spend $$$.for a group of eight customers. In the end it didn't matter as they have a strict dress code of no shorts regardless of how dressy. Pretty silly considering the area they are in and that you can wear jeans and even non offensive tees? I wish I could have tried them but had to spend $1600 elsewhere. read more

Ambience was great as the others say but the food (what we ordered at least) was just ok. We got the Branzino to share and the carrot and potatoes. You can tell they are intentional because everything was flavorful - just not flavors I'd necessarily order again. The Brazino was well cooked with a nice crisp on the outside and surprise base of chimichurri underneath, but if it wasn't for that, it'd be void of much favor at all - which was disappointing. We are kind of big Branzino fans and this one was very underwhelming. Otherwise, they do fine dining well - attentive, timely. We opted out of cocktails this visit since we'd been drinking by the pool all day but had a nice surprise when our bill came back with a $20 charge for water when we simply asked for "water". So, be clear with your water selection, lest you find yourself with a $10 still water charge per person. ps went during sunset which was nice but don't expect a great view of it if you're looking for that. read more
