We started with a glass of wine (a Pinot Noir), and I must say it was as excellent as it was generous. Had the steamed dumplings and 3 Cheeses with truffle grilled. The service was Superb, as well as the cocktails that followed (Romance, Reposo, Tabla Ahumada), carefully crafted by mixologist Jonathan. It was both an outstanding visual show as well as an exquisite experience for the palate. If you are looking for fabulous cocktails, wine and service, in a chic adult environment with ambiance, and be rocked gently by an elegant and wonderful staff and owner, this is your place.

Everything was to die for except the bone marrow which had a super small portion size. The free bread was also amazing! Probably one of the top 3 free restaurant breads I've had.

I liked the jovial yet professional service but the food is what made it great. Started with a tuna tartare daily special recommended by the waiter, it was great. Many layers of flavors and the tuna and avocado was fantastic. I then had the ribeye (the smaller one, at only 20 oz :-)) and it was one of the best steaks I've ever had. For those who haven't seen my other reviews, I've been to hundreds of the best steakhouses, from NY to Chicago to Las Vegas to London, and while this wasn't a steakhouse it was fantastic. A nice think ribeye, perfect marbling but they also got the medium rare exactly as it should be, with an incredible char on the outside. I would fly back to Puerto Rico just to have this steak again. I also liked the crispy brussel sprouts and the asparagus were excellent, larger portion than you get elsewhere and nice thick asparagus. Finished with the I think 7 layer coconut cake, which I thought was the nicest dessert (split it with my wife's key lime pie, also good, and daughter's carrot cake donuts). Can't wait to go again.

While our waitress was quite nice, she didn't have the background on us as they do on other restaurants, for lack of a better word she had no idea who we were or even if we were staying at the resort. The restaurant was also largely empty, which hurt the ambience. I did greatly enjoy the burrata and pumpkin starter, the flavors worked very well and the burrata was excellent. The lobster was meh, while the flavor was nice and the hollandaise was good, it was not much meat for a 2 lb lobster, no claw meat. Again, not bad but nothing exciting. Overall, it left us a little disappointed and we won't be back.

COA checks all…read morethe boxes with fabulous food - seafood that is off the chain good, excellent but not intrusive service, and a nice atmosphere. I could not have been happier with dinner here. Started with the butternut squash soup with coconut emulsion that was so good. The bread basket includes 3 types of breads and butters. You will want to eat it all but have to save room. We moved on to the king crab - perfectly cracked and flavorful w/their own house made sauces. It was the best crab I've had outside of Alaska and we live in Seattle where it's plentiful. Next we had the halibut with an amazing crust of hazelnuts and truffles. It may have been even better than the crab, but it was close. The fish came with a taro mash with truffle - and we didn't realize that so we also ordered the potatoes with Burrata and truffle. You can't have enough truffle. Finished with cappuccinos and molten cake. Really excellent experience all around. Don't miss it if you are in the area. I want to go back and try more on the menu. It was that good.

Well, the person who answered didn't provide me with a time or anything after I provided my phone number twice, as if I'm supposed to stand outside the gate from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM waiting for a text message with a code for the gate guard. Well, I never received a text from COA, and when i tried to call back twice after waiting fifteen minutes, nobody answered. I suspect the person was avoiding answering because of the caller ID. Needless fo say, I returned to San Juan and told my team that we'd postpone our dinner meeting until I found somewhere else to eat and discuss business plans. Again, i get the feeling that Deaf people here in Puerto Rico are treated like we don't exist or that we're an inconvenience--second-class citizens, as if my money isn't good enough. As if we do good enough to afford McDonald's, it's an attitude that I've encountered in other parts of the world: India, Brazil, Thailand, to name a few, where accessibility doesnt exist, and Deaf people and people with disabilities are given low expectations. Again, as if hearing and intelligence are linked, which they are not. Since I'm Deaf I must have a low wage job.
