Kumo Rooftop

Food was great and the staff worked hard and knew the dishes and drinks well. The atmosphere was great except for the family that brought the screaming kids. Not the restraunts fault but this is not a place for kids (especially the kids that are a result of soft parenting). Outside of that Pickup- I would highly recommend for good tapas and drinks.

We enjoyed our dinner at Kumo. The views are amazing and the cocktails are superb. After a slightly confusing start, we were eventually seated. I thought the food was fine, but maybe not quite good enough at this price level. This would be a perfect place to visit at sunset to enjoy a cocktail.

The filet mignon and eggs were nothing short of amazing. The ambience, the view, the staff and the service was quick, great with communication and super easy. The drinks were delicious. Highly recommend, I will absolutely be back! Don’t forget about the sourdough bread, they make it in house and it is absolutely amazing

Everything was absolutely scrumptious! We had their INTI cocktail made with homemade maiz liquor that was out of this world. The duck and waffles were crispy yet the meat was so tender I didn't need my knife. Its not an exaggeration to say I was dancing in my chair! Am going back for dinner and we'll see if the Wonderful adventure continues

A destination restaurant. Kumo Rooftop has a spectacular view of the Isla Verde beachfront. Beautiful. We had been on the island for a week and we were in search of something special for the evening. My brother mentioned a rooftop bar/restaurant in Isla Verde. I searched the Isla Verde area for a rooftop bar and found Kumo Rooftop just a little over 100 feet away. Wow! From the moment we arrived at the restaurant, the weight staff made as the center of attention. We had a reservation, so we were seated immediately. Moments later, I had a very generous Wine card in my hands. Perfect. The food was simply spectacular. From the appetizer to the dessert, everything was delicious. I could’ve ordered four helpings of the chef’s choice dumplings! Luckily, I did not because I would’ve missed the Pincanha Waghu. Every bite was decadent. The restaurant itself is very modern and appearance, comfortable, yet very classy. Perfect for any special occasion. Or just come on up and hang out at the bar and enjoy the spectacular views. As I mentioned before, the wait staff is very helpful and professional. Our entrées were never rushed, and we were never made to feel like we had to hurry. Yes, Kumo Rooftop is a popular restaurant. I definitely recommend making a reservation. Thank you to the wait staff of Kumo Rooftop for an excellent evening.

If you want incredible food, service and views while in PR, don’t hesitate to make a reservation here. Located on the rooftop of the Aire De Olive this restaurant has everything you’re looking for. Sweeping views of the ocean, amazing food and cocktails made at a very high level.

Love this place. The food is great and the view is amazing. Occasionally the music is a bit loud, but I’m also old so that could just be me. Chef’s Choice Dumplings- had the pork and shrimp dumplings. They were great. 4/5 Chicken Skewer- these were good. I liked the sauce coating them. 4/5 Kumo Sliders- tasty little burgers 4/5 Steak Skewers- love them! 4/5

Ensure your stay in San Juan includes a dinner at Kumo or stop in to the bar for unique craft cocktails and delicious small bites. Gorgeous 360 view of San Juan and watch the planes land. Service was excellent as was the food. Great variety of dishes to choose from - something for everyone. We started with the burrata & dumplings, enjoyed skewers & then the pear bread pudding with Matcha ice cream was a great ending to be a perfect view & meal. Top notch.

***Visited December 2023*** -Great view- ocean surrounds you. -food is a little expensive but worth it *hamachi tartare- FANTASTIC. They're served with little crispy rice cakes to dip them in. *wagyu Sliders - just order this- they're the kind of tasty that makes your mouth water and steal the second slider from your significant other *branzino skewer- wasn't as crispy as I hoped but I was being held up talking to a bar guest who couldn't read the room when my food arrived. Flavor was good *beef skewer- great seasoning- not as tender as i would have hoped. *salmon with ponzu - flavor and aroma was good- needed more salt but nonetheless great. Service- Louis (Lewis?) and Gabriel are awesome- the review for them was 5 stars easy, knowledgeable bartenders that enjoy their craft. Extremely professional but read the vibes of the room and both made effort to not only give us frequent service but even come over to make conversation with us & we had some amazing connections hundreds of miles away from our hometowns. Hostesses did not smile or greet us. Told us the bar had coffee and to order on the side and they did not. Also told us the bar was full when there were seats? I felt a little awkward about that. Beach server- Gigi was fantastic. Amazing attitude and very kind. We were at the beach several days and she ran into us in the elevator and asked how our stay was. Went the extra mile to make sure our stay was better. Honestly she made the experience much better. One star down because (out of the almost $1,000 we've collectively spent at Kumo) I ordered a $85 steak Medium rare. Came out Medium well. Asked if they could make a new one. Staff was accommodating but the Chef said no because the innermost piece is medium rare. Fine but not really fine lol.

Absolutely amazing food, service, vibes, and view! This rooftop restaurant is right on the beach and comes with phenomenal views. We sat at a table right by the edge so we were really able to take the view in. Not to mention they also had a live DJ playing absolute bangers all evening. Be advised it can get windy up there, so keep track of your valuables. I would definitely advise on making a reservation beforehand and requesting a table by the edge to maximize your experience on this rooftop. To start off we ordered the King Peggo and Palta Hamachi Tartare. The King Peggo tasted amazing and my friend said the same about the Tartare. I then ordered the Ceviche - absolutely amazing. Everything in the dish complemented each other so well. We then ordered the Steak Skewers, Shishito Peppers, and Brussel Sprouts. Everything here tasted amazing and would definitely recommend trying and sharing as many foods as you can. I also ordered a cocktail for the rooftop vibes. This is the perfect spot for a date night or dinner post beach lounging (which is what we did)! If / when I go back to Puerto Rico I will 100% be coming back to Kumo Rooftop.

This was such a cute place, great view during the day, we went at night so couldn't see much. The drinks were very yummy! We got ceviche and tartar for appetizer, we got steak, salmon, Brussels sprouts, and potatoes. We sat at the bar, it was pretty busy, small place, I recommend reservations! Overall very good.

Ambience is nice except the part where hotel guests are in the pool next to your table. The food was less than mediocre everything tasted salty and pre made. Just not worth the price at all.

Love Kumo Restaurant! We just came back again! Trying new dishes, with the same outcome: exquisite!

This is a year late review but still deserves to be posted! Kumo offers small plates but is good for date night or group night out. Rooftop shows the view of isla verde beach & the rest of the city. It was beautiful and such a great experience. We did wish the plates were bigger but the food really made up for it, everything we ordered was delicious.

The views were amazing for sunset. Their drinks and food was just as good. We had some appetizers there. Staff was very nice and friendly. Highly recommend for sunset in Puerto Rico .

Loved it here! Customer service was great. Food and drinks were amazing!!! Went at night but still it was very beautiful. Definitely recommend.

My friend and I are staying in the hotel and of course wanted to try KUMO. The whole experience was really lovely - from the service to the delicious food to the fun vibe. The hotel has been making several upgrades which hasn't bothered us much. It has sort of a boho boutique feel with thoughtful touches. You can also order from the KUMO beach menu while on the beach.

Genuinely one of the best dining experiences I've had. I went at night for my partner's birthday. I had reserved about a week and a half ago through their website. Getting there, I did find that their valet parking was entirely full so I had to take my chances around the main avenue in Isla Verde. I called the restaurant to explain said situation and they were very attentive and understanding. Luckily I found one almost immediately lmao. The ambiance is great, its in a rooftop so of course you gotta take an elevator ride. But the place itself is really lounge friendly, with moody lighting and a cozy atmosphere. Host sat us down pretty quick, our server came in shortly after (I think their name was Melody) and was very attentive and precise. We ordered cocktails and appetizers first, and I think I wanted to cry as soon as I tried those sliders. Literally melts in your mouth, and the chicken skewers with green pear teriyaki were smoky and charred (in a positive way) and just perfect. I went with the Origami which was like a smooth and smoky Old Fashioned, and my partner went with the Issey Miyake (I'm not huge on foamy tops but it was still pretty good). For our main courses, we went with the Duck Leg Chaufa and Pork Belly... I felt my soul leave my body I stg. Both were just perfect, I can't describe it or do it justice. We left so fulfilled and satisfied, I think I had the best itis I've had in a while. Literally think this dinner fixed my sleeping problems. Absolutely coming back and telling everyone I know to go lol.

love love love ! best place to eat. service was amazing. scenery amazing . food was so delicious. 100% recommend going at least once while you're can . i will definitely be going back.

5 star service! Best food on the island. Good drinks. Love the ambience. Perfect view day/night.

Kumo has a nice vibe to it, good music, great atmosphere with nice views and wind blowing through your hair. Staff is friendly. I'd just have to say for most items for what it is, just overpriced & not my favorite option for dining or a nice rooftop bar. The Service is pretty lackluster & everyone working is kinda just chillin around, no hate to the staff because they were all nice. But for the price of everything I got & for what I got, I wouldn't come back.

FANTASTIC RESTAURANT! It was our last night in Puerto Rico and we were SO HAPPY that we decided to eat here. The rooftop is very romantic and breezy but also fun and has a nightclub vibe. Our server Yael delivered superb service that you would expect from a high end restaurant. He explained the menu very thoroughly and made some excellent suggestions. (He even switched out our napkin coasters when they had too much condensation from underneath the water glass...it's the details that count.) I ended up ordering the Palta & Hamashi Tiradito and my husband ordered the Picanha Wagyu. Both were muy buena! Overall, it was super worth the visit, excellent service and high quality food selection. I highly recommend this restaurant to others. Be sure to make a reservation though as space is limited!

Cool place. Very pretty. On a rooftop. However, sitting by the window, we got drenched and had to move when suddenly it started pouring rain. We wanted to try a bunch of things. Too many things. His favorite: steak tartare on crispy rice (which they did for me gluten-free, thank you so much). My favorite: the mushroom skewers. Really nice. The asparagus wasn't trimmed properly, so was a little hard to eat, with not much flavor. The miso chicken was cooked well and juicy, but I couldn't taste the miso and asked for more sauce. The waiter was really, really awesome. That was the best part of the night. They were really good with my food restrictions (gluten free and dairy free).

My guest and I really enjoyed our dinner. The host, server, and food runner were very attentive and hospitable. I would recommend this place to others and look forward to returning:) the ambiance was beachy and cozy, and the dj set the mood right with nice chill music. We ordered the sennin and emperor cocktails, king pegao and the palta & hamashi tiradito to start, and the branzino skewer and mahi mahi sudao. Each cocktail and dish was fresh, flavorful, and aesthetically presented.

The items from the robota grill are amazing especially the prawn and branzino! Would like to try more items next time. The chaufa rice was delicious. Also had the pear bread pudding, was tasty! The service was excellent. The rooftop view overlooking the beach was a vibe...

Went tonight for dinner. Service was ammmmaazzinngg her name was Kris. Didn't rush us at all. Food was delicious, we got the prawns, salmon, potatoes, and burrata. Salmon stole the show. Decent prices too. And the view?! AMAZING. Ambiance was great. All super friendly to us and it was just such a great experience, wish we had time to go back!!

So happy to see a restaurant like this finally opened in the area! Kumo is an upscale asian fusion restaurant located on the rooftop of a hotel on the beach with fantastic views. This place isnt just ambiance though, as the food and drinks were also exquisite. The gin cocktail with peppercorn and tonic was very refreshing yet strong (one will do you good ). To start I ordered a salmon crispy rice which was incredibly tasty. The only downside was it had a bit too much sauce (the rice cake was drenched in it). For my entree I really went for it and tried the whole chicken (I was a party of one). It was so delicious! Well cooked, not too dry, the sauce was delicious, and it paired very nicely with the couscous that was made with spices used in indian cuisine + dried fruits. By the way, I make it through half of the chicken, but finished the accompanying couscous Overall, I really enjoyed this meal and am so excited to visit to try more of the menu. The mushroom robata is my next stop!

I had my birthday dinner here and it was amazing! Drinks, food, and vibes were all 10/10! Liz who was our bartender was great as well. We will definitely return before we head back home. I highly recommend.

Dined here tonight and the service is terrible despite the pleasant ambience I read a lot about Kumo and was excited to drive out of our way to experience it ourselves. First of all, this week there is a big festival in San Juan. Traffic is bad. We were 15 late to our reservation. When we arrived the horrendous person at the front desk said "your reservations been cancelled; you're only allowed a 15 minute grace period and I gave your seats away"... my jaw dropped. unreal. We spoke to the manager Camilla who was an absolute star. She got us seated at a beautiful table and was kind. Our waiter was very nice. We ordered the crispy rice app and wagyu with 3 sides for a main. They told us they don't have wagyu "they can't find it" so they are serving NY Strip and charged us $5 more.. even though it's on their menu.... can't make this up. We received the sushi appetizers which was good (nothing you couldn't get at Catch in NY) but the main course was following right behind it... We thought it was so strange but the food was taking some time so we just went with it.. 5 minutes later the waiter who brought the main course returned and said sorry I had the wrong table.... OMG. We had already started eating one of the sides so he left that... when our waiter came over we asked since they made the error if we could change one of our sides to something else for when our food comes out all together hot. The waiter came back and said if we want something different they'd charge us more because even though the brought a side out by mistake 30 minutes before we had dinner that was expected to be part of our "meal". I'm sorry I've been to a lot of restaurants and this is by far worse service that any fast food restaurant. The whole experience was really just comical embarrassing and not worth the time. Disappointing for something we were hopeful for. We should have known during that first interaction with the host. Downfall from there. We should have left when we had a chance. Also don't get the pumpkin side it was a big halve of cold mush with no flavor. Total letdown after the chefs menu at 1919.

Jacqueline was amazing one of the best services in Puerto Rico, the food was great too, I really recomend this place for a romantic dinner, the rooftop is azin and have a grea view.

During my trip to San Juan, I had the opportunity to visit this restaurant, to my surprise it wasn't on Yelp. The restaurant on the Yelp app had a different name and has been closed for a while. However I asked the staff to provided me more detail information to suggest the changes to Yelp and I was able to experience how easy is to help local businesses. This rooftop bar is a gem, the bar is conveniently located in Isla Verde. The views of the Beach are breathtaking. The decor is elegant and beautiful. My party and I had cocktails and we had a really wonderful time. The food menu at the bar offers an Asian fusion cuisine, meat, seafood and small dishes but we were craving for some local food. We ended up having only cocktails. We tried a signature cocktail named Mulata, outstanding combination and great presentation. This cocktail had añejo rum, black tea, ginger beer, lime and a very delicate hint of lavender. It was very refreshing and the flavor had the perfect balance. The staff is very friendly and welcoming we really loved it. It has a phenomenal atmosphere!!!

My party doesn't eat meat. We asked for the duck leg chaufa without duck. The waitress says it will be the same price as it is with the duck. Does that make sense? To charge the same price for fried rice as you do for duck with the fried rice. Normally, restaurants will be able to sub it with something else. We asked to sub it with salmon. They said they can't. Ok fine. Then we asked to just give extra rice, but they can't do that either. Unethical and pure stupidity. Tourist trap. Food is not even good. Stay away.

A+/100, Everything was at point. Flavor, portion, ambiance, service/hospitality, quality of the meal. All and All. Definitely recommend. Maria

We didn't have reservations but luckily we were seated after 45 mins. The food was good, the waiter was very nice. Just wish they had more comfy chairs.

View was unmatched, everything else was kind of meh. The food was okay with the tataki sashimi and the crispy rice starters stealing the show. We also ordered the duck which wasn't prepared that well. The service was not great at all but we did get a complimentary glass of champagne for our date which was sweet.

Stunning views and amazing cuisine! We were blown away by their scallion pancakes! The atmosphere has such a relaxed vibe and the wait staff was out of this world friendly! This place is a must see, must go!

The place was beautiful! Perfect for mini photoshoot with friends! The service was so kind and very attentive to our needs regarding with foods and drinks. It sure was very different foods for me but I tried and love it!

This place has an amazing view of the beach and city. We were able to see the sunset and I could not express how gorgeous it was. My fiancé and I made tik tok of the entrance because the whole view was pretty cool. The food however was just ok. We expected a dinner menu and they really only sold sandwiches and pizza. We would come back for drinks and the view but I think we will dine elsewhere.

Cute yet interesting experience. My friend and I were looking for a rooftop bar for late evening drinks and appetizers. Called to see a reservation was required and was told to just show up. It's located in a hotel and since this was a month ago when COVID restrictions were still in place, there was a line outside. The valet guy/doorman was managing the crowd and communicating with the upstairs bar to keep things moving. It took about 30 minutes but we got the okay to head up. You're let out of the elevator right into the bar/restaurant and to the hostess stand. We had a great seat with a side view of the ocean near the bar. Don't remember the drinks I had but they were good. The several appetizers (wings, fish bites, calamari and crab nachos) were yummy with the fish bites being my fav. Service was quick and efficient and despite needing a little more alcohol in our drinks, everything was awesome. We were also happy to learn there was a DJ playing good music. We drank, ate, chair danced and laughed for a couple hours and had a ball. I'd definitely go back on my next trip to PR.

I seldomly complain about restaurants, but I am compelled to write this one-star review because, despite the fantastic view, this was the worst dining experience of my life. Let's talk about the food - the mushroom skewers were nothing short of disgusting. I could barely stomach them. The prawns reeked of an overwhelming fishy smell, an indication of their less-than-fresh state. And the octopus? Oh, it was so overcooked that it resembled beef jerky in texture. Chewing on rubbery octopus was definitely not what I had in mind when I decided to dine here. We dared to order the lamb chops, thinking they couldn't possibly mess that up, but we were mistaken. I managed to eat one lamb chop along with some rice, which was incredibly dry and flavorless, making it almost inedible. As for the second lamb chop, it was practically raw, more undercooked than a "Philadelphia rare" steak. It was repulsive, to say the least. When the waitress finally decided to check on us, I shared my dissatisfaction with the lamb chops and the revolting mushrooms. She offered to have them recook the dishes or give us a refund. By that point, our appetites had been utterly ruined, so we chose the refund option. Then, the manager, a small stocky, red-headed man, came over to hear about the issues. Rather than showing understanding and empathy, he chose to argue with us about the state of our barely touched plates. He claimed he could only refund half of the lamb chops because we had eaten some rice and managed to finish 2/5 of one of the lamb chops. Seriously? It's outrageous and terrible business to argue with a dissatisfied customer, especially when the food was clearly inedible. I've worked in the restaurant industry long enough to know that if a place messes up a meal, their top priority should be making it right with the customer. The manager's attitude was beyond unprofessional and completely unacceptable. I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU DO NOT EAT HERE. Save yourself the disappointment, the waste of time, and the insult to your taste buds. I implore you to find a different dining spot with better food and more respectful staff. This place deserves ZERO business until they learn how to treat their customers properly. The manager should be FIRED for his lack of customer service skills. Avoid this restaurant at all costs!

Mist is a decent time. The food was really good, as was the view. The problem I had was the service. We stood at the hostess bar for five minutes without being so much as acknowledged. We pretty much had to seat ourselves. Then, when we were finally seated, it took forever for our orders to be taken and for the food to arrive. The service here deserves one star. The reason the place gets three is because the food and the view were really nice. Food: 8/10 Drinks: N/A Service: 3/10 Aesthetics: 9/10 Value: 8/10 Overall: 28/40

My bf and I have been here twice and it gets better every time. Rooftop ambience is a vibe, the hostess was also singing and so talented, service was amazing and they even gave us a list of cool spots to go once we left. Ceviche is fire as well as everything else. Go here!!!

This place was fire. Super chill vibes on a rooftop next to the beach in Isla Verde. Everything from coming in to the place to the service and hospitality to the prestige bartenders and great hostess that sat us down. The experience here was amazing. I recommend if you like to try small plates and share or if you just love Asian fusions. I love the music. The y play here too is very vibey and not so loud. The food is just amazing. I would recommend for a date night. Get reservations if you can because it is a little small.

If you're looking for a rooftop view, this place has amazing views. And the food was generally good. I loved the crispy rice with salmon. So good I ordered two. However the prices are insane even for PR standards. One skewer of mushrooms was more than $20 (tax and tip means it was over $25 lol). I thought the portions were going to be a bit bigger or I prob wouldn't have ordered half of what I did.

The service is 10/10 The food 8/10 Ambiance 10/10 The views 1000000/10 - incredible It's pricy. But it's definitely worth at least once just for the experience

The views are amazing no better place to be than Puerto Rico The food was delicious. Combinations I would never have imagined would be good together. We had the wagu beef and Brussels sprouts. So good. Know unless your staying at the hotel be prepared to pay $20 for valet parking.

This place will make your taste buds explode in the combination of flavors and exquisite drinks

I love rooftop bars and after learning about Kumo and who operates is, decided to call in a reservation... I found my new favorite rooftop bar in Puerto Rico. Pulled up to valet parking (which you have to pay for at the hotel front desk on your way out) and went up the elevator to be surprised by the beautiful ocean view from the top. We had a fantastic waitress who explained every aspect of the menu and made several recommendations. Every food item (and we tried many) was good, as was the wine. I recommend the King Pegao, Okonomiyaki, Steak or Octopus Robatiyaki, Fingerlings, and Kabocha Squash.

This gem is tucked on the top floor of Water Beach Club Hotel. The hotel looks just fine from outside, but the ambience at KUMO is another thing: dimmed, rattan furniture, gold glasses. On top of that, the food is pretty on point!! It has a very Morimoto-vibe to it, they are amazing. We had the rice crispy salmon which was really good. The tuna okonomiyaki with a hint of truffle was so good. The black cod yakitori was cooked and seasoned to perfection. But the star of the night had to be the Pear Bread Pudding -- it was amazing!! The drinks here are really good as well. The lavender Mulata was great. The view at night is the Luis Munoz airport. I think it's best to be here for brunch or during sunset time for great views. I highly recommend this hidden gem if you are at Isla Verde!!

Had several issues with this restaurant : - we ordered two burgers for lunch and about 20 minutes after we ordered, we were told that they could only make one burger and one of us had to order something else - service was laughable as we were the only customers there at noon on a Tuesday and it took an hour for us to get our food - incredibly overpriced for the quality of dishes Do not recommend

Amazing food! Great roof top ocean view ! Perfect vibes for a great evening! Friendly waiters!

This place had a lot of nice reviews and of course who wouldn't want to eat with a nice view. When we arrived the guard in the front of the hotel was RUDE, made us wait for over an hour outside the hotel because the restaurant was full but when we got up stairs it was completely empty!! The drinks here tasted more like juice than anything we had to order some shots to feel a little kick, our server was amazing and so was the host! The food was very good too we went around brunch time so we had to order food from that exact menu which was a bummer since most things people raved about was on the regular menu. But the bacalaitos dish and the tripleta dish was very good as well!!! And the view was amazing!

Everything was great (view, food, drinks) right up until our server just left for the night and never cashed us out or apparently told anyone. Eventually went and asked another server who brought us the bill and said he'd be right back with the card machine but he never came back either. Went to hostess and finally cashed out. Would have loved to go back but now I think we won't. Todo fue genial (vista, comida, bebidas) hasta que nuestro servidor se fue a pasar la noche y nunca nos cobró ni aparentemente le dijo a nadie. Finalmente, fui y le pregunté a otro servidor que nos trajo la factura y dijo que volvería con la máquina de tarjetas, pero tampoco regresó. Fui a la anfitriona y finalmente cobré. Me hubiera encantado volver, pero ahora creo que no lo haremos. (Google Translate)

Beautiful spot for lunch with view of San Juan coastline. Original plan was to have dinner there but after checking into the hotel below, we decided to take a look at the restaurant before heading out to the beach. Next thing we're sitting down ordering lunch! Cheeseburgers were outstanding. Served with really good salted potatoes. Whatever the Spanish wine was by the glass was perfect with the cheeseburger. Service was outstanding. Returned in the evening for a nighttime view and late night cocktail. Great place.

Prices are high & the portions can barely feed one BUT... beautiful rooftop scene & the appetizers are really good & moist. Super upscale and quick service.

The food, atmosphere, staff, and service were incredible! The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and cocktail pairings and incredibly attentive. Our waitress was so great and she helped us select the perfect components to your meal. We will definitely be back when we visit San Juan again soon.

This restaurant was inside a hotel and yes it was located on their rooftop. They had a live dj that played great music. They has a full bar and have high top table, chairs and a few booths. Our server was super nice and helpful she helped us understand things we didnt know about on the menu. The food was soo delicious! It was raining when we went they had covers but it didnt do anything they should have tied all corners so it wasnt flying around. There wasnt any decorations its super simple. They only had one restroom and it was not appealing inside.

Had a great dinner love the experience. Food was incredible and design was lovely. Cuisine was great.
