Celeste

The 20 Best Restaurants In San Juan, Puerto Rico - San Juan - The Infatuation

"A Saturday night getting wine drunk over some artistically plated mackerel is easy at Celeste—a spot that happens to be the most memorable dinner you’ll have in San Juan. Celeste defines itself as a seafood and wine bar, only open from Friday to Monday, but that’s just the dry resume of this place. It’s the perfect median between a laid-back night out with a glass of velvety merlot and an indulgent multicourse dinner tailored for the self-proclaimed epicurean. They serve seasonal sharing plates that are Puerto Rican at their core, with South American, East Asian, and Caribbean influences. You might have curly tentacles swimming in a spicy chorizo sauce, outstanding crudo, and glistening skewers of beef brisket you can gobble down without feeling self-conscious about your fork-and-knife etiquette." - adriana silva, tiffany yannetta, mariana trabanino
