The menu at this San Juan fine-dining room leans hard into local vegetables and seafood, with the chef pulling traditional Puerto Rican ingredients through a global lens. Francis Guzmán has been a James Beard Outstanding Chef semifinalist, and the room feels like it knows that without being smug about it. The wine list earns genuine attention, running to unexpected picks like a rosé Zweigelt alongside the food.
