It feels like stepping into a typical Santurce house, but instead, you find yourself in a remarkable restaurant. It's like having your Abuela cooking exclusively for you. Don't be deceived by the understated ambiance because this restaurant has recently won the prestigious James Beard Award. It's truly incredible! You must try their delicious bacalaitos and the chichaíto to finalize. It's an experience you shouldn't miss, especially for lunch!

Neighborhoods in San Juan
There are different neighbourhoods or areas within Santurce near the house.
Calle Loíza is an emblematic area in the heart of Santurce. The neighborhood is a creative and musical space, rich in culture and history. It is no accident that many great artists like Ismael Rivera grew up in these streets! In recent years, Calle Loíza has become a trendy spot where new businesses are flourishing, making it a popular place for people to hang out. The area is filled with local restaurants, bars, and boutiques. The dining scene is currently booming. It's pretty safe at night but always be aware of your surrounding and be careful walking too late at night. You are about 15 min walk from the house tho the Loiza st.

Condado’s oceanfront, tree-lined community offers an array of elegant hotels, restaurants, boutiques and more. Everything is within walking distance, including stunning beaches where you can dine at beachside restaurants, go paddle boarding in the lagoon, take a yoga class or just relax in the sun. I personally walk from the house to the Condado Lagoon is about an 1hr walk.

During the 1970s and 1980s, Ernesto Cerra Street in San Juan was known as a hub of artistic and cultural activity on the island. It was a place where numerous record labels, recording studios, music shops, and other businesses related to the music industry were concentrated. However, as is the case with many urban areas, Ernesto Cerra Street experienced a decline in the following years. The music industry changed with the arrival of new technologies and the way music was distributed and consumed.
In recent years, there has been a revival on Ernesto Cerra Street and its surroundings. This resurgence has focused on revitalizing the area through art, culture, and gastronomy. One of the most notable transformations has been the celebration of art festivals on the streets, where buildings serve as canvases for murals and street art. These festivals have not only attracted the local community but have also generated tourist interest and turned the area into a destination for those interested in urban art.

"Puerta de Tierra is a sub-barrio located between Old San Juan and Condado, and is one of the city’s oldest neighborhoods. Celeste is right in the heart of it, and should be on your list for its excellent seafood and equally excellent service. The inside is fresh and bright, with high ceilings and raw, exposed cement floors. Their menu is constantly evolving, but dishes like their squid ink ceviche, tamarind brown butter anchovy toast, and aged tuna with meyer lemon are a must. " OPEN: FRI-MON 5-10pm
