I did not venture into this restaurant location as of yet. I write that because I look forward to giving them a visit on my next visit to Old San Juan area in PR. This is marked as a must stop restaurant for sure. So stay tune for that follow up.
As from the photos posted, I can see the old fashion decor that plays a major historical part of Old San Juan. It's one reason why I want to visit. Reading more into this restaurant, I found information that it was built back in 1523, and one of the early structures built in Old San Juan. It was the Governor's Center, it then became the first City Hall and the cellar was a jail holding facility. My second reason for a visit is because from the comments posted, they seem to make a very good Seafood Paelle and I'm a fan of that dish. They also mentioned the sangria are good drinks to. My last reason why I want to visit is because they seem to do some dances/performances with live music.
Some comments mentioned about high end prices but when you get a tasty meal, good drinks and entertainment all in one location. I write, you get what you're paying for. Who wouldn't want to enjoy a good food, drinks and experience a live music and dance performance as well?
I was able to make a quick stop here for some really good Mojito's drink, I do recommend those. The location is very nice, you have a few major historical landmark around them and close by. One being Hotel El Convento is across the street and another being Catedral Basilica Menor de San Juan Bautista that just had a major makeover. There's a small park called Plaza de la Catedral to make a stop right across the street to just sit and enjoy your drink, the scenic views and watch people walking by just like I did.
