    Great view and great food! You can enjoy looking out at the Atlantic and the city skyline heading to San Juan. The service is top notch at the bar and in the restaurant. Unique craft cocktails and Japanese-Latin infusion food. We had a chance to have a 3 year anniversary of kumo 4 course meal on a Saturday night and it was awesome. Highly recommend!

    I’ll keep this short and sweet. The food was excellent (pan fried red snapper as main course-order this, it was amazing). Restaurant was nice, hostess polite, etc… all the things you would expect. However, our server,Jose was phenomenal.!A polite gentleman, personable, knowledgeable about the dishes, good recommendations. I can’t share enough accolades about this guy. Caña, take notice and recognize him. He is the sole reason I am sharing this review with your prospective diners.

    A wonderful Thanksgiving day with family. We had a 3:00 reservation which was offered on the Open Table app and when we arrived, we felt a bit rushed as the staff was cleaning and tearing down while we were eating. I would have made the reservation earlier if it was available. Anyway, the food was outstanding and our server was exceptional. The noise level was a bit “over the top”. We enjoyed the Christmas decorations as well.
