We did the 6 course tasting menu. Each person can choose 6 different dishes so we shared everything and got to try 12 dishes. Let me tell you we live in NYC & eat very well and Marmalade was the best

The tip is if you're in San Juan and don't dine here you've missed out. Get the tasting menu and wine flight (great for vegetarians too as they have substantial delicious veg. fair as well)

Amazing! White bean soup is to die for. Beef tenderloins and lamb tangine are delicious. The owner walks around serving amd greeting you. He is a sweetheart. Definitely a must do in San Juan.

The place is a perfect combo of trendy and romantic. Yellow tail poke was delicious & the watermelon (which I typically don't enjoyed mixed with my protein) just hit the spot. Dress it up to fit in.

A restaurant that you will never forget. I recommend the tasting menu. Chef Peter Schintler is a one of our best chefs on the island. It's an experience you need to have in San Juan.

Don't miss the Jimi Hendrick's cocktail, made with muddled mint and jalapeño, plus cucumber and lime juices and Hendrick's Gin. As good looking as it is tasty!

Get “Gnocchi” or the “white bean soup”. Or the “forbidden fried rice”.Amazing service and attention to detail. You will feel like the king or queen you really are...

Everything from the cocktails to the decor to the food is first-rate at Marmalade. Not showy or molecular, but absolutely satisfying. Inspired combinations and a well-curated menu even for vegetarians

This was truly an amazing culinary delight !!! I can't rave more about the multiple courses, especially the truffle pasta, short ribs and white bean soup!!! A must if you're in old San Juan
Gabriel ReneSeptember 16, 2013
Outstanding food, service and cocktails. Considered by industry leaders one of the best restaurants of the island. Owner will come to your table and talk for a couple mins. Highly recommended.

Don't leave San Juan without dining here! Exquisite food, impeccable service, beautiful decor, hipster vibe. Sea bass, yellow beet salad white bean soup crime brûlée. Yes. Time to splurge!
Patrick AllenSeptember 2, 2013
Go with the 5-course and try the white bean soup & their version of popcorn shrimp. Then close out with the banana bread pudding for dessert. Best meal experience during our stay by far!

Great atmosphere and service. Some of the dishes are oversalted. The tagine's flavor profile is off, despite it being fusion or not. It's also too meaty; they can do without the chorizo.
Valarie McCubbinsFebruary 29, 2016
yes. 1000x yes. however, know these portions are HUGE. we did the full tasting with the wine pairing. by the 3rd course, i was stuffed. SUPER gluten-free friendly.
Manuela ZoninseinJune 14, 2018
We ate from the vegan menu and it was outstanding - better even than anything we’ve eaten in NYC. Amazing service. Delicious wines and drinks.
Rose IbrahimAugust 15, 2013
This is the first restaurant we has dinner at and it was absolutely amazing. The chef also have us some complimentary apps. Everything was good here. Highly recommend it! :)
Catherine SNovember 24, 2012
Did a tasting and everything was realllly good. Service is great and the head chef brought out our last course! Very rich flavors though so be mindful of that when choosing your dishes!
Ricel AlmadovarOctober 14, 2014
Tasting menu is amazing! Generous portions and won't leave you hungry. White Bean Soup M.U.S.T try! Everything is sooo yummy. Very well worth every penny!
Mary MorganFebruary 20, 2015
Do the tasting menu. I recommend Global Warming cocktail, the poke, lobster risotto, and the pork cheeks. Delicious!!
Claire CruseJanuary 11, 2014
The hostess is literally the nicest person we met while visiting San Juan. Marmalade was booked solid, but she took time to call another restaurant and see if they had an opening for us. So nice!
Taryn Winter BrillJanuary 5, 2014
One of the best meals I've ever had, hands down. Scallops, banana bread pudding were amazing. Definitely go for 4 5 or 6 course menu. A must!
Vanessa CorderoNovember 14, 2014
Highly recommended!. The flavour fusion is awesome. One of the best places for eat in San Juan!
Blake HerringtonFebruary 3, 2016
Everything you could want and more. Amazing food, top notch service and warm atmosphere. The wine pairing was very thought out.
Matt SettleAugust 17, 2014
Easily in the five best restaurants I've ever been to. Do the tasting menu. You get to choose your courses and they will all be great.
KarinJune 29, 2013
This place is a must in Old San Juan. Amazing food and service. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.
Kelly Reeves 🐱June 7, 2012
The white bean soup lives up to the praise. Don't leave the building without trying it. The tasting menu is a great way to try a bunch of yummy things and worth it.
Brit RJuly 22, 2024
The food is beautifully presented and with good quality ingredients, but do not expect Michelin quality (it’s not) as reviews make it out to be. Food was yummy, service was exceptional.
MinnieDecember 21, 2012
Yum yum yum just order anything, you won't fail! white bean soup is heavenly, risotto of lobster is superb, and pineapple mojito is just more than great.
Alex CavoulacosJuly 22, 2014
Get the tasting menu for sure, and make sure to try to white bean soup and the foie gras. The "global warming" cocktail is delicious as well
Arielle SpiegelDecember 24, 2012
One of the best dining (and service) experiences you'll ever have. Start with the ceviche, end with the bread pudding. You won't be sorry.
Thiago LinsMarch 6, 2016
Get the 4 courses. Yellowtail poke, white bean soup, and banana bread pudding were great. Striped bass and red snapper were just ok.
Mara AngelineNovember 10, 2012
Food is awesome. Flavors are refreshing and adventurous..!! You must try the passion fruit sangria and the pineapple mojito. Also, it's imperative that you try the white bean soup.
Hande ErfusOctober 11, 2015
Red snapper ceviche A+, white bean soup A+ (really not exaggerated, a calorie bomb with the cream and butter bur delicious). Sea bass B-.
Jay MandelJune 6, 2012
Worth trying. Excellent service. Inventive cuisine. The white bean soup is worthy of all the hype. If I had to do it again I would have just shared apps tapas style.
Ty SomkulSeptember 19, 2013
Yellowtail poke. white bean soup. Seared foie... Sea bass.. bread pudding! Perfect 5 course tasting!
Brian CAugust 14, 2013
Vegans a must do. Flavors and textures if the food are amazing. The NO-no cake is to die for. Awesome dining experience.
Jennifer CJanuary 21, 2015
Truly a restaurant that cares about their guests' experiences....don't be afraid to speak up if something isn't quite up to your standards. Lobster risotto & tripleta were standouts.
Ling WangJanuary 18, 2014
When making reservation make sure you ask for the bench seats. If you want larger portion (yet less variety), go with 5-courses prefix. Great place!
Angie MeredithJanuary 26, 2018
Everything is excellent, the food, the drinks and the decor. Be sure to order the white bean truffle soup.
Miguel AlemañyMay 24, 2019
Outstanding food and outstanding service, my new favorite restaurant in Puerto Rico. A foodie gem.
Matthew DybwadMarch 26, 2014
Millionaire ice cream: the most truffle I've seen in/on anything in my life. Chef confirmed at our table it's a loss leader. A must have.
Dave FearnMarch 16, 2012
The tenderloin main course was exquisite, as was the pre-mains mushroom soup. Fine dining doesn't get any finer - quite possibly the best meal I've ever experienced.
Stephanie M.July 2, 2010
Sister restaurant to Jam (Condado) w/a wonderful vegetarian menu & chef who's willing to go the extra mile to accommodate a vegan in gourmet fashion...as well as a great wine selection. A fave in PR.
Rachel KaplowitzApril 21, 2013
Get the 5 course tasting menu! But order your own wine selections. Don't overlook the heirloom beet salad or swordfish. Subtle winners.
SweethunyJuly 25, 2013
Roy waited on us and it was outstanding. I have nothing but good things to say about this location. You MUST dine here if you visit old San Juan
MelodyFebruary 8, 2015
Loved Marmalade! Fantastic food, drinks, atmosphere, and service.
Jennifer RFebruary 17, 2013
Treat yourself to a five course tasting. You get to decide what you want. Definitely try the white bean soup. You won't be disappointed with anything!
Paul GaugerDecember 31, 2021
The best meal I had in San Juan. Outstanding food and service. Expensive but worth it.
Luis ElechiguerraNovember 11, 2013
