The space is quite small, so I'd strongly recommend making a reservation. Service was extremely slow, so I wouldn't suggest coming if you're starving. The plates are generously portioned, though the prices are a bit on the higher side. The garlic bread was a standout--absolutely loved it. A few items we ordered didn't arrive, yet we were still charged. They said splitting the bill was possible, but they charged three cards and the amounts were inconsistent. On the positive side, the banana foster and chicken Alfredo were both delicious. They also offer a fresh Caesar salad made right in front of you, which I tried but didn't particularly enjoy. Overall, it's worth checking out, but just be mindful that the area can lose power frequently as well.

Beautiful, small Italian restaurant in Old San Juan. Gorgeously intimate interior with lovely…read morepaintings on the walls, it was a pleasure to (momentarily) look at, as we sat at the larger table in the back and away from the main seating area with the painted wall views. It was still pretty, but I wished they did a bit more for the table back there to match the rest of the gorgeous interior. And as the cashier/register is also there by the back table, we had a lot of waiters moving in and out of our space to complete chores/tasks for other tables, which occasionally took away from the ambiance and immersion of the restaurant as our table felt like a prime hub. Again, this was only an experience for this table in the back, but something to note. Regardless, my group ordered two appetizers, a bottle of wine, and six entrees to get a full spread and taste of this nicer Italian dining. The Italian Sausage and Polenta appetizer was phenomenal - deliciously buttery, smooth, and a springy texture I've never experienced before. The bruschetta platter was good for what it was, but not stand out. I ordered the carbonara, and was disappointed. It was incredibly salty while lacking any other savory, spiced flavor. The noodles were cooked perfectly, but the salty pork and then further salted sauce overpowered anything else. I tried to salvage it with chili flakes and a lot of black pepper, but nothing could give it the rich flavor I was looking forward to or expecting. The ribeye, though, was phenomenal. Excellently executed, rich, juicy, perfect. Worth the money if that's in your budget. The other dishes were all delicious as well, and you can't go wrong with ordering any of them. I wouldn't recommend the carbonara, but I have seen other reviews rating it highly, so maybe I just got a hiccup this time. The waiters were kind and attentive when we asked for them. They seemed quite busy a lot of times, and it took a few rounds of them rush-leaving/coming back after we ask for us to be able to order cocktails or appetizers. It was also a busy night, so completely understandable. But overall, a really nice experience, and a beautiful date spot.

The ham on my Hawaiian was cut so small to nearly be non existent. And there was very little sausage ass an add on to the margarita pizzas. Flavor was good. I would definitely give them a second try.

Summary is below: Pros: - The atmosphere was quaint and it nice outside - Pizza was ok (on par to a bit worse than competing frozen pizzas) and a good portion - Wait staff was hustling and they deserve more help - Diet coke came from the can Cons: - Nothing was fresh and all of it was poor quality - Phone went straight to voicemail when I called to place a takeout order, so we needed up eating there - Service was understaffed (there were two waitress for the full restaurant and one chef) - Long wait to be seated even though there were ample open seats - Long wait for food/drink since there was one chef - Greek Salad: Edible and I didn't get sick after, but the lettuce was wilted and the ingredients were equivalent to bottom shelf of a grocery store - Pepperoni Pizza: Ingredients were awful, cheap pepperoni, cheap jarred sauce, cheap pre-shredded cheese - Marinara Pasta with Sausage: Store bought pasta and the same bad sauce that was on the pizza. The sausage was uninspiring as well. This was borderline inedible - Focaccia: again this was the cheapest store bought option - Price: very expensive for what was cheap, frozen (not fresh) food; any ok home cook would prepare a better meal with the same ingredients

The food was good (especially the churrasco), but this was a very expensive meal. Like, "Holy hell is that correct?!"-when they bring you the check level expensive. We would go back for those drinks, but I would need to sell a couple of non-vital organs before we could afford to go back for a full meal.
