We had a later in the evening reservation so we were ready to eat by the time we sat down but service was quick and the food came out shortly after. I ordered the American Red Snapper that was absolutely delish and very filling. My husband ordered the Whiskey Barbecue burger which he enjoyed as well. Out of the two main restaurants on the property, this and Maritana, we had a better experience at Society table in terms of the food selection, taste, portion size and of course the outside view. This restaurant is also open for breakfast and lunch.

The pizza, pasta, and burgers didn't look to be very appetizing. For a safe dish, I recommend the crab cakes. This may be the best item on their menu. Crispy edges, nice remoulade, and frisee salad. The restaurant inside is pretty dated and the bar had a really unpleasant smell, like chemicals from a hair salon. There is some major renovation happening on the patio, so I'm hoping to return to something fabulous to match the reputation of the hotel.

The servers were very friendly and let me try multiple flavors (Yum!). I tried the blueberry cheesecake and the double (triple?) peanut butter.

I'll definitely come back the next time that I'm in town and have to try more of the flavors or the coffee!

Located on the ground level of the beautiful Don Cesar Hotel, this oasis of goodies and coffee is exactly what we needed and when we needed it. When you walk by Uncle Andy's Ice Cream Parlor, you can't help but feel pulled in by the sights of the brightly highlighted coffee and ice cream bar. Once inside the shop, you're immediately surrounded by shelves and tables of snacks and goodies. They have just about everything you would need in one spot from breakfast and lunch sandwiches, which they heat up for you upon request, to chocolates, liquor, and snacks. There's definitely something for everyone at Uncle Andy's! The folks there are so helpful and accomodating, as they even offer to allow you to place your order with the restaurant next door and take it to go from Uncle Andy's! Right outside the doors of this amazing coffee shop is the courtyard leading to the beach. We carried our breakfast and coffee out toward the beach to the couches, where we enjoyed the sunrise and breakfast with a view. I highly recommend the Don Cesar, and frequent Andy's Ice Cream Parlor while you're there!

Addicted to the Bean is not a coffee shop. It is a support group for people who accidentally became…read moreemotionally dependent on breakfast sandwiches. I stopped in for "just a coffee" and somehow left with: a California Egg & Cheese on ciabatta, a spinach-feta croissant, hash browns, and enough caffeine to hear colors. First off, whoever created the Breakfast Club sandwich deserves their own holiday. Egg, turkey, bacon, American cheese, tomato on buttered sourdough?? That's not breakfast. That's therapy with a pickle spear. And the California Egg & Cheese with guacamole? Absolutely disrespectful. I took one bite and immediately started nodding like I understood cryptocurrency. Then came the Mozzarella Basil Avocado Toast, which sounds like something a yoga instructor orders after saying "I'm really trying to stay balanced lately." Meanwhile I added bacon because balance is important. Also... the menu saying breakfast is served all day is one of the most emotionally supportive things I've seen in years. Nothing heals a rough afternoon quite like ordering eggs at 2:47 PM while pretending your life is together. The coffee? Dangerous. I now understand why the place is called Addicted to the Bean because after one iced coffee I suddenly: answered emails, cleaned my car, forgave my enemies, and briefly considered running for public office. The vibes are immaculate too. Chill local coffee shop energy where everyone either: 1. works remotely, 2. owns a golden retriever, or 3. just came in for a bagel and accidentally stayed two hours. Shoutout to the cranberry pecan chicken salad too. Whoever decided chicken salad needed cranberries and pecans was clearly operating on a higher intellectual plane than the rest of us. And the prices?? In this economy?? I was expecting the avocado toast alone to require a small down payment. Final thoughts: If you live on Isla and haven't been here yet, what are you even doing? This place has: elite breakfast sandwiches, solid lunch options, fresh pastries, coffee strong enough to restart your ancestry, and enough cozy energy to make you briefly believe you could become "a morning person." 10/10. I came for caffeine and left spiritually rebuilt.

I ordered a Cafe latte add vanilla and vanilla cold foam. I also ordered a croissant breakfast sandwich with bacon, egg and cheddar and paid extra for 2 slices of bacon. A side of hashbrown. Was the food edible? Yes however the croissant was stale, smoothed and chewy. The bacon was non existent just a few tiny crumbles. The egg was fine and ample cheddar but the avocado.... Oh the avocado. So gross. It had that flavor once an avocado has passed it's prime... Like paste yuck. Had to scrape any evidence of it off my sandwich. The hash brown was a wedge, not hot, not crispy, more like a sponge. Zero flavor. The Cafe latte.... Not a Cafe latte. Best I could tell us perhaps there is coffe in there somewhere but there is so much vanilla sweetner it's Un drinkable that was zero foam I paid extra for. Honestly I won't come her again

Delicious- just go!…read more The vibe is pretty homie gives French bistro vibes and feels like an old living room throughout most of the restaurant. Service was friendly, quick and helpful and prices were more than fair for the flavor. We went for brunch and everything we had was very tasty- I didn't use a single condiment, which is rare the French toast was amazing. It's honestly the perfect amount (non American portion), but you will want that more. We also had the crêpe V something and the rustic omelette both exquisite. I will be happy ordering this every time, but I'm also curious to explore a few of the other options. The menu isn't super dense, but we're thinking of trying the sweet crêpe next time and maybe a desert. Pro tip add some of the syrupy whipped cream from your French toast to a cappuccino and enjoy. Better than most lattes. 10 out of 10 would brunch again!

What I find fascinating is not only is it a bakery, but also a mini grocery store selling Italian food. It was a bit confusing to order food because there were too cash registers open on opposite ends of the counter so we weren't sure where the line started. We ended up following the crowd and ordered fairly quickly. The pastries we ordered were so good. There was a lot to choose from but we ended up going with the lobster tail and lemon cake. The lobster tail is massive and completely overflowing with custard. By far one of the best pastries I've had. Even though we enjoyed what we ordered, we felt like it was a little expensive. Both items cost about 15 dollars but since it's a tourist spot, I wasn't surprised
