Santaella - Review - Santurce - San Juan - The Infatuation

"Santaella might not look like much from the outside, but inside, you’ll find an elegant dining room, indoor garden, and a tropical-themed bar. The cocktails are fantastic (two highlights: the Perfect Lady with St. Germaine and the watermelon-y mojito de sandí), and so is the menu—think a contemporary take on traditional Puerto Rican food. Start your meal with the tacos de tartar de atún, pastelón del dia, or the chillo frito, and don’t skip the budín de queso crema y guayaba for dessert. This spot is buzzy and always booked, so make a reservation in advance." - Adriana Silva
