We had just arrived in San Juan late evening so first thing to do in am was find coffee of course. So wandering around town stopped at several places to try and buy a cup of joe to go to no avail. Then stumbled on the barrio which if Im correct means neighborhood? Went inside and got 2 cups to go and breakfast to go AWESOME.So next time in town get the coffee you wont be disappointed.

Food at La Gaviotta was great. Service was very Nicaraguan, indeed: friendly but not no sense of urgency. We rented surf boards from them twice and they were super helpful and friendly. No need for deposit or pre-payment.
I had whole grilled fish and it was great.

Stopped in for a quick bite on a recommendation by house mates. I was so surprised once I walked into the door to head toward the back garden area. Super fun, inviting and great atmosphere for relaxing and enjoying their delicious smoothies and healthy bites! Definitely will be back to just enjoy the garden and refreshing atmosphere. Fair priced for such fresh ingredients and quantity ! A must stop!

Lovely spot on the beach (once you negotiate getting in to the Iguana complex) Nice menu, very well presented food on the plate and tasty with it. A couple of very reasonable wines available as well. Excellent service with Pili the perfect host. We loved it and will return!

Reviewed By TWRogers - Phoenix, Arizona
Da surf spot is a cute little outdoor eating taco stand right on Santana beach within spitting distance from the Rancho Santana clubhouse. Simple tacos, smoothies, chips. Cheap breakfasts and a fun owner who aims to please. A great place to have a cold one after Surfing or an Alt lunch or breakfast stop
7. La Finca y el Mar
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 90 reviews
Translated, our name is The Farm and the Sea. We showcase a locally sourced menu. Relax and soak in the ambiance of the archi-tec-ture of La Finca y el Mar which was inspired, in part, by sea-side farm-houses in Andalucía, Spain. Open-air ter-races frame stun-ning views of the Pacific as well as rolling hills, flow-ers and rock formations. Buen Provecho!

All meals are an experience here. Breakfast is excellent as is lunch but dinner is superb. Great menu, well presented and delicious food. I particularly recommend the pork belly to begin and then believe it or not the pork chop, wonderful flavours. Reasonable wines. Great service and great views from the Terrace.

Located at Soma Surf Resort. Although Soma is in a rural and somewhat isolated setting, we think you will be pleasantly surprised by the variety and flavor of the food served. We concentrate on local foods, including fruits, vegetables, fish, beef, pork and chicken, with an emphasis on pairing great tastes with tantalizing recipes for nourishing and satisfying meals. Soma is a casual open air restaurant serving fresh fare with a distinct flavor using natural ingredients where you will truly savor the "farm to table" experience. We have a full service bar where you won't want to leave without trying one of our thirst quenching mojitos. Please call for Reservations to confirm availability.

From beginning to end this place is superb. The welcome, the hospitality and the ambiance are only exceeded by the food and service. Everything possible is made ther and the fish and meat dishes are outstanding. The homemade sauces and relishes, the Crestor fries and inventive desserts are just part of this unique experience!

We could the restaurant from our Rancho Santana beach. Friends suggested to go there for breakfast. We could have walked on the beach but instead chose to drive. We had a wonderful breakfast and enjoyed a unique magnificent view. The construction going on was a bit of a distraction but it was well worth the trip.
