Jasmine LeitzelMarch 31, 2013This is without a doubt the best restaurant in old San Juan. As picky eaters We came here 3 nights in a row. The best staff, drinks, ambience, and of course exquisite food
Dana TedescoApril 26, 2013Shrimp & Mango Dumplings captured umami flavour profile perfectly. Ginger Tres Leches Cake had the right amount of peppery gingerness to offset the sweet cream. Order both for yourself & DON'T share!
DragonflyJanuary 23, 2017At Dragonfly you get The App or Roll of The Week for just $8! Call 787-977-3886 to find out the App/Roll of the Week and save your seat!
Ariel ZachJanuary 13, 2014You'll need your smartphone flashlight app to read the menu because it's really dark, but other than that highly recommended--from creative cocktails, great asian tapas and awesome desserts
J DanielsJune 30, 2013If you only had one place to expeience while in Old San Juan, the Dragonfly is the place to go. The food, martinis and mere atmosphere can not be matched in the historic area.
Jo SulistioMarch 21, 2015Truffle dumplings, calamari, chocolate lava cake, and roll in the hay sushi was great. Do not recommend the Peking duck nachos if you've had real Peking duck.
ArturoOctober 22, 2012Chino/Latino at its finest! Get the pre fixe menu and forget about making decisions. The place is very dark, like a club. The best Tres Leches in San Juan :-)
Candice RiveraOctober 30, 2015I could not stop eating, everything was so delightfully tasty and innovative. An island feel to sushi, incredible!
Bebo GonzálezDecember 7, 2015My favorite restaurant. The decoration, the service and food are impeccable! The churrasco is a must!!!

ᴡ PorotskyApril 16, 2017cocktails are good. Some apps were good, Dumplings, wasabi fries, Peking duck tacos, main courses were not good, kimchi fajitas too salty we sent it back. Service got worse after we complained.
Karen ButlerNovember 11, 2012Made me feel super special for my birthday! Great food! We out outside and the atmosphere was awesome!
Amanda DufauAugust 10, 2012Everything here is good! Our personal favorites: calamari, tropical threesome roll, and creme brûlée!
Aleksandra MarcotteApril 2, 2011If you're in Viejo San Juan, you must come here. Eat in the sultry downstairs bar/dining rooms. Finish night off with the chocolate pot dessert <-mind blowing.- DragonflyJune 28, 2013The DJ's on Thursdays in the Dragon Lounge are amazing, you have to check it out!
hMay 14, 2015Nice outdoor seating, good for groups but not couples because its a little too loud for an intimate setting- OOF! RestaurantsDecember 30, 2012New Year's Eve! Celebrate with us! Full dinner menu, amazing DJ, reserve now 787-977-3886
Ann Michele LoganApril 15, 2012Best Cosmo I've ever had...try the churassco, dragonflies and pork and Amarillo dumplings!
Louis EwensMay 7, 2011Great for a hip drinks and bar bites experience. But it's far too loud and dark for serious foodies.
CasieMarch 10, 2012You will NOT have to speak Spanish here, though they will appreciate the effort of you try.
Joana SantiagoFebruary 19, 2011Try the Asian marinated churrasco, the pork & Amarillo dumplings & the latin Asian calamari...!
Murugu NathanMarch 18, 2011Pay with with your Visa and they pay for your desert. Tres leches and ginger flavored was good!
Quinton JonesDecember 21, 2010Same owner as aqua viva next door (and about five restaurants on this same block... Maybe the hippest places in Old San Juan)
- OOF! RestaurantsJune 24, 2011Salmon Poke, Flor de Atun and Triple XXX Martinis, yeah baby its Friday!
Carlos OrtizSeptember 15, 2013This place has gone downhill; less than 10 guests @ 12am on a saturday.. Stale chips, stale ambiance...still stiff prices.. To be fair, drinks were ok and bartender was accomodating..
