The directions may make this hard to find but have some patience. The eatery is tucked in a congested area but has parking if you're looking. Coming inside, this establishment is English friendly, has a QR menu for easy access, and is really cool inside. I love the bar area, the murals, and tables. The music is nice and not overly loud. The service was prompt and we were greeted and seated within seconds. Our server was attentive without looming over us. We ordered the croque madam, so good! It should be on every menu and the potatoes with peppers and onions were perfection! My husband had the porsiacso omelet and it was meaty and filled to the brim. We both shared and had the best breakfast! Easily my top 2 favorite breakfasts of my life! read more

Modern spot for good eats and drinks but I came for brunch and let me tell you... best French toast I've had in a while! I also had the Mami omelette with natural passion fruit juice (don't let them put all that ice in your drink though lol). The lady that helped me was so cute and kind. She was attentive and ensured my experience was 5/5. The ambience is chill. They play music and have a clean bathroom. There's also complimentary parking but it's really tight so I would back into your spot. If not, you'll have to find street parking or pay for parking in a lot. read more

We came in for Sunday brunch and really enjoyed the experience. The staff was friendly and service spot on. The food was served hot (which should be the standard but too often doesn't happen), visually appealing, and very tasty. The overall ambience was great too.

Stopped by Morena for dinner during my stay in PR. Overall, the place is really nice and service is friendly. I was really looking forward to having tacos but unfortunately the restaurant was out of a few items the night we came. This was a bit of a bummer. I was surprised to see that the restaurant was empty on a Friday night. read more

Fui con mi novio en la mañana. La comida no estaba mala, pero el servicio fue insoportable. Solamente había un mesero haciéndolo todo. Limpiando las mesas, tomando las órdenes, llevando la comida, encargándose de la paga, hasta poniendo los platos en su lugar apropiado. A el, le dimos una propina buena porque era el único trabajando. Fue por eso que nuestro servicio fue lento y no lo culpamos por eso porque el si estaba trabajando duro. Pero habían tres empleados más (que pudimos ver) y ellos estaban o parados hablando o viendo netflix. Tienen que arreglar la estructura de ese lugar, o no va a durar mucho. TRANSLATION ENGLISH: I went with my boyfriend yesterday morning. The food was not bad, but the service was insufferable. There was one waiter doing all of the work. Cleaning the table, taking the food to us and taking the orders, taking charge of giving everyone the check etc. We have him a nice tip because he was the only one actually working and our complaints are not geared towards him because the only reason the service was slow was because he was the only one on the floor. There were, however, three other workers who were standing around talking or watching Netflix behind the bar. They have to fix this structural issue because if they won't that business won't be standing for long. read more

This was GREAT! Food and drinks were really good, and the portions were huge. The art on the wall is really interesting, and the staff were very nice (and even went to the store to get things to make us a Bloody Mary!) if you're nearby, I recommend stopping by. read more

Amazing! Super friendly! Amazing AC to escape the heat with a beer. Very local and not touristy which shows how great they are!

Had a nice appetizer dinner at morena. The first restaurant I've been to where I had to be buzzed in. But it certainly wasn't a sketchy area, so not sure of the reasoning. Service was quick and friendly. We split a bunch of apps for the table. BBQ wings were tasty and the fish tacos had a great kick to them. Didn't try the sliders but was told they were good. The cod croquettes weren't my fav, but if you like that consistency, the flavor was good. Fries were standard. The passion mango cheesecake was different, sauce was a bit sugary, didn't love the crust, but we ate most of it. All in all, a decent collection. read more

Food was bland. Ordered smoked wings and got plain wings and bbq sauce. Vegetables were frozen. Service was slow and poor. 1 waiter for the whole place. I was with a group of 8, food and drinks came out 1 by 1 random times apart . We couldn't even have a drink toast because the drinks came out so far apart . It's a Friday night , why is there no servers? Ambiance. It's cute and dimmed. I'd probably never come back . read more

This spot is a hidden gem! Food was excellent and we had a great time overall. We went for Saturday brunch and was surprised that it wasn't packed. Food and drinks were great! Big portions. Had a "La Flora" drink and it was tasty! Mom had the cutest cappuccino and my brother had a mimosa. Staff was friendly and spoke both Spanish and English. A lot of parking. read more

Stopped here for brunch in San Juan. Our waitress was so sweet and helpful. We got the Croque monsieur and the breakfast pizza and both were amazing. A little bit too much to eat for the both of us, considering we had a fruit bowl and breakfast potatoes as well! The pumpkin caramel latte may have been the best cup of coffee I've ever had in my life. It was actually so good that my boyfriend ended up swapping his drink for one as well. And it was so cute I barely wanted to drink it at first. read more

If you're looking for a good breakfast spot, this one hit the spot for me. I had the salmon omelette and also a pumpkin pancake. The salmon tasted so fresh with the onions and feta cheese also spinach, cherry tomatoes, and a hint of the balsamic vinegar salad. and pumpkin pancake with a sprinkle of cinnamon and a Acerola Mamosa too drink. The overall experience of all the food that I ate here was delicious. The service was great too my waitress came over to my table various amount of times, making sure that everything was ok as well as the food. The one regret I have is that I found this place on my second to last day of my 8 day vacation. Definitely worth repeating. read more

Do not waste any time with this restaurant. Made reservation for 14 people for 7:00 PM. Once arrived we were seated and the waiter took the drinks order and then we ordered food. At 8:40 Pm we were told by the waiter that there was only one cook in the kitchen and that will probably require approximately another 45 minutes before we were going to get our food. At that point we asked for the drinks check which we paid and walked out. The bartender was pretty rude. Do not waste any time with this place. My family and friends will not go back. One stairs is being very generous. read more

I wish we had found this place the first night of our vacation rather than the last! Amazing food and drinks. We ordered the lobster pastelillos for our appetizer, then followed with the salmon with a side of rice and beans, and the shrimp tacos. Wow!

The waitress almost had a nervous breakdown because it took 2 hours to get appitizers out and almost 3,for main course,.

NOT THE WAITRESS FAULT KITCHEN AND MANAGEMENT FAULT. read more
