"Old San Juan meets Old Port here: pushing past 132-year-old mahogany double doors brought in from Puerto Rico I soak up salsa and merengue and dive into exuberant Puerto Rican plates like cheluta (thick pork chops with tangy chimichurri) and arroz con gandules (fragrant rice and pigeon peas), and if the piñabrûlée is on the menu I ready my spoon for its heady swirl of lime, pineapple, and coconut custard capped by a perfectly crackly caramel crown." - Alexandra Hall
