First farm to table in the island since 2009 with a modern approach to cuisine. An invitation to the curious palate. Local, traditional ingredients meet ingenious and innovative forms. Our chef's proposal changes according to local meat, fish and produce

My steak came with a tahina sauce, a cannelini bean mixture, churrasco chimichurri sauce (green herbal blend somewhat like a softer pesto) with cherry tomatoes. Appetizer of small diced beets and smoked pork in a lemony vinaigrette was delicate and well balanced. Partner enjoyed lamb stew with morrocan notes in the sauce - a caution that the bones are cut into pointy little pieces and laced throughout the dish to add flavour. Served with jasmine rice. A nice rose from Cotes de Rhone went well with all. Sometimes the visa machine acts up, but there is a bank machine nearby.

arrived for a late brunch after we saw they had vegetarian options on the menu at the window. we loved the toy train delivering our food! we weren't expecting it! we had the fruit bowl, which was just some strawberries, blueberries, cantaloupe, banana, & walnuts. the eggplant sandwich, which was huge! and the falafel gyro with fries. the place was quite full, still the staff managed to work pretty efficiently. food was served quickly. had a frappe, which tasted like fruit syrup (not real fruits), and the juice wasn't natural either. overall, it was a good experience and they had a good amount of vegetarian options (hummus, eggplant sandwich, falafel gyro, pancakes, french toasts, fruit bowls, etc

Specializing in Tapas and Montaditos, Condal is the ultimate in gourmet small plates. This little piece of Barcelona serves the highest quality cured hams and marinated fish on the island and a handful of lavish main courses like the made to order Paella

I decided to give this restaurant a try based on the reviews and because it was one of the restaurants participating on the Puerto Rico Restaurant week. We ordered the two different codfish dishes and one of them was tasteless. Also, the mashed potatoes tasted like the boxed mashed potatoes. Expensive dinner but not great. Will not return. We're terribly sorry to learn that our famous fresh homemade mashed potatoes and our fine codfish fillet (one of the most requested delicacies from our regular customers) didn't meet your expectations at our place. We prepare the fillets completely fresh, itâs not the salted like other versions, only fresh servings from the finest suppliers in town, ordered two times a week. Also, it would had been our pleasure to helped you with your plates at that moment, if they didnât meet your expectations. The waiter asked if everything was fine, because we are always looking to keep our guests satisfied. Again, we are sorry for the inconvenience, since the rest of our guest looking for the Restaurant Week specials were completely happy, we exhort you to try us.

We were just in Old Town last week. So many good restaurants; so little time. But we made time to eat here twice. We ate outside both times, and the service was excellent.
