- EEmilySan Francisco Bay Area •3 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe sat at the bar and had dinner. The octopus appetizer was a must get. They first brought out our entrees and must have forgotten about the appetizer, but they quickly brought that out too when we reminded them and we didn’t mind. The atmosphere was very nice and the cocktails (espresso martini and jalapeño margarita) were excellent. Would definitely recommend for a nicer date night or vacation dinner.More infoSantaellaPrice: Expensive• Puerto Rican• San Juan•4.8

- AAlanMiami - Dade •16 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 25, 2024What a pleasant surprise! Well in advance, we made reservations for a Christmas afternoon meal. The setting was absolutely wonderful at a middle Terrace with cool breezes and shade from the bright sun. The meal was delicious. The service was superior and we very much appreciated being able to celebrate our special holiday in San Juan at EL Asador!More infoEl AsadorPrice: Moderate• Steakhouse• Old San Juan•4.1
- AAmirGreater Boston •4 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 23, 2024Great little restaurant in a very historic building. Staff are fantastic; they work hard and are very friendly. Food is also great. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner here and food was always consistent. Only negative comment is that they were understaffed for Christmas week. There were far too few staff and they were doing every job - bar tending, waiting tables, cleaning, seating people… Otherwise, we really loved it!More infoPatio Del Nispero - Hotel El ConventoPrice: Moderate• Puerto Rican• San Juan•4.1
