I'm not a fan of the STK located in Washington, DC, however, the San Juan iteration is so dope, I…read morecame here two days in a row.. Lol! The interior couldn't be more swanky. It seems like they put a little more "pop" into this one! South Beach is the one that rivals it. The first day, I came solo because I flew in a day before she did. When I mean the hostess and bar staff treated me like I was a star, I left out thinking I was Denzel.. Lol!! All high end restaurant managers need to fly to this STK and get taught a crash course on how to make folks come back. Because isn't that the secret sauce to restaurant success?!! I think so! My main bartender they called the "Godfather", made my Manhattans to perfection! My blackened Ribeye was sooo good I wanted to order one to go! The next day wasn't planned, but when we had to do a forced pivot move, I suggested we come back for the seafood tower, because they told me it would be too much food for one person. They were right. It was delicious but we did have a little bit to eat first which made us unable to completely finish that seafood masterpiece! Please visit STK while in San Juan, you will become a big fan like yours truly!!

I rarely leave reviews like this, but I want to share our experience for other families considering…read moreSTK San Juan for a large dinner or special celebration. I planned a dinner for 19 family members for my father's 70th birthday, including senior family members and children. We also had guests with severe food allergies and different dietary needs. Because of this, I called STK before our trip to make sure our group could be accommodated. I spoke directly with a manager named Nicole and explained everything. We had several separate reservations and I asked if we could simply be seated near each other instead of doing the large group menu (pre selected) and minimum. I was told this would be fine and that the team would do their best to accommodate. When we arrived, that completely changed. The General Manager on duty, Josie, refused to honor what I had previously been told. We were told that if we wanted to be treated as one group, there would be a $150 per person minimum, with an exception for the children. What made this even more frustrating was that the restaurant was practically empty. There were plenty of open tables, including tables right around where our reservation of 12 was being seated. We were not asking for all 19 people to sit at one table. We simply wanted our other reservations seated nearby so our family could enjoy my dad's birthday dinner together. There was large area where this could be accommodated. They still refused. At that point, we decided to take our business elsewhere. I called Rare 125 Neighborhood Grill at the last minute and explained what happened. They welcomed all 19 of us, seated us together and treated our family wonderfully. No hassle. No unnecessary back and forth. Just great hospitality. My issue is not that STK has policies. My issue is that I did my due diligence as a customer should. I called ahead, explained our situation, spoke with a manager and received approval before bringing 19 people to the restaurant. We made our plans based on what STK management told us, only for that agreement not to be honored once we arrived. Josie even asked me for proof that Nicole the manager I spoke with approved this request. If you are planning a large family dinner, milestone birthday, multigenerational celebration, or have guests with different dietary needs, please keep our experience in mind. I would strongly recommend getting any special arrangements in writing. For families looking for this same type of accommodation, my advice based on our experience is simple: spend your dollars elsewhere. We did, and the restaurant that welcomed us ended up giving my father and our family the experience we were looking for. Best, Ashley Lane

Servers never came to ask if we wanted more drinks, we needed to ask for more. When the food came out, most of it was way overcooked. They never asked how everything was (not a language issue because we speak spanish). They came over cleaned the plates, two of which were not touched because they burgers and onion rings were burnt. Overall bad experience with everything.

Great selection of local traditional food including seafood, past, burgers, beef, empanadas etc. Mahi mahi Ceviche was on point. Extremely fresh and tasty served with fried plantains. We had halibut and salmon for entrees. Fish was good quality, but a little overcooked and dried out for our taste. Maybe if we specified a doneness it would've helped. It was still good though. The mixed vegetables were obviously from frozen bag and detracted from the dish. Beef chicken and shrimp empanadas available. I had chicken and shrimp but found the filling to be a but wet and loose im my opinion, but I'm certainly no expert. Drinks are reasonable and beers are cheap. 5 Medallas for $10 is a steal! Service and staff were excellent and made is feel welcome. Prime sits just on the outskirts of the most saturated part of downtown which makes for less crowded and enjoyable experience. I would come back for sure.

The fajitas tasted like they were made with cheaper quality ingredients, and the guacamole seemed like the premade or frozen kind rather than fresh. There was also a very loud live band, which made it difficult to enjoy the meal. The guitar amp kept scratching and cutting in and out, making the atmosphere even more unpleasant. Between the slow service, food, and loud music, I wouldn't recommend this place
