"If you would like to experience authentic Puerto Rican cuisine, no cafeteria style food here, this is your only stop. Famous ;Mofongo ; served in a ;Pilon ;, as it would be in the best restaurants in Puerto Rico, with all the traditional stuffings from Lobster to Octopus. Other tradional dishes such as ;Serenata ; (Codfish salad) or ;Pinion ; (delicious Puerto Rican Lasagna made with Plantains and Cheese) can be sampled individually or from their Sunday Brunch. Desserts such as ;Bienmesabes ; come in assorted flavors from ;Pina Colada ; to ;Guava ;, and are homemade. Homemade ;Pique ; will tickle your taste buds when dipping your ;Alcapurrias de Jueyes ;. Finish it all off with a glass of ;Coquito ; for an authentic meal that will remind you of your ;abuela 's ; cooking. The walls are filled with original artwork depicting scenery from the motherland. You could listen to anything from Tito Puente to Marc Anthony from constant music piped into the dining room. The owner is usually onsite making sure you are satisfied with food and service. I am a Miami raised Puerto Rican who enjoys fine dining. I have visited others, from Downtown Coral Gables to Broward County...., none compare. I visit often to re-kindle my love for the island and highly recommend Old San Juan. It’s an experience you will come back to."

The Best of the Best Puerto Rican food in Miami. I love it! It's expensive but the food is delicious.

This is a great moderately priced Restaurant. Not a sophisticated wine place. This is a place for those that like food as prepared in Puerto Rico at a very low price.

As someone from a Puerto Rican family, I have a deep appreciation for traditional Puerto Rican cuisine. After relocating to Miami from New Jersey, I noticed that there aren't many Puerto Rican restaurants around. I've visited The Old San Juan several times, and I absolutely love the authentic dishes they offer. It brings back fond memories of my grandmother's kitchen. If you're in the area, it's definitely a place you need to try!

Stumbling through the menu, (English translation, selected an entree as an appetiser. Three other entrees was ordered. The atmosphere is not offensive (nice NO WINE LIST (only one red wine to offer .
