Very cool restaurant hidden away in the Condado area. The food was amazing. Drinks to die for. I wish I had something like this close to home. The flavors were POW explode in your mouth. Next time in the island will visit Marmalade which I believe is a sister restaurant.

I'll state the obvious. They have an amazing rum list of local and regional libations. The manager created a majority of the mixed drink recipes that are on the list. I had the Blind Bartender consisting of fresh ginger, rum, and cilantro. It was profoundly refreshing. Jodi, the bartender expertly navigated me through the fine rum list like a concoction... More

Coming from St. Thomas we eat here every trip. The food is outstanding and the same with the service. White bean soup is banging good and the menu seems to change frequently. Can't get enough of the plantains, and thinking of moving the 65 miles west. Eat here.

Been here twice and would highly recommend it. The white bean truffle soup is a must have! Very friendly staff, fun decor with lots of small dining rooms. Walking distance from La Concha Resort (Condado).

I highly recommend this place for a fun, casual yet elegant meal. The decor is hip and trendy, but nothing about the place comes off as pretentious. Every single dish our party of four ordered was as perfect as it gets. Try the soups, their combination of ingredients were both inventive and delicious, as was the ceviche. There was not... More

Tried the first class rum flight and i have to say it was a little much. 5 diffrent rums at an ounce each... but they all did taste... More

I had a three course meal here with my husband and overall it was a good experience. The decor is moderne and it is the kind of place where you could have a quiet meal for two, or dine with a gang or similarly sit at the bar and have a few cocktails. The food was well presented and fresh.... More

This place was just what we were looking for on a Saturday night. The atmosphere and decor were chic and inviting. Melvin, our waiter, was more than accommodating. The empanada app was very tasty and the mofongo was the best of any we have tried on the island. My husband and I both fully enjoyed our meals, (he had the... More
