The 19 Best Restaurants In San Juan, Puerto Rico 2024

"In Old San Juan, you should get your breakfast sandwiches at Spiga and your lunch sandwiches at Malavita, a new-ish Italian provisions spot from the team behind El Vino Crudo. The classic sandwiches are huge and come bursting with fillings like prosciutto and fresh mozzarella, but keep an eye out for the specials, like the recent chicken piccata hero. Grab-and-go or hang around inside—there’s a small bar area where you can pull up a stool, drink an espresso or a spritz, and snack on things like sfincione or caponata while you wait for your giant chicken parm hero smothered in vodka sauce." - adriana silva, tiffany yannetta
