I had an unforgettable dining experience at Mario Pagán Restaurant. The atmosphere was elegant and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a special lunch. The service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable, and warm. Every dish was a masterpiece, blending bold flavors with exquisite presentation. The highlight for me was the garbanzo and chorizo soup - absolutely divine! Chef Pagán’s creativity and mastery of Latin-inspired fine dining truly shine here. This is a must-visit spot for food lovers looking for a memorable culinary adventure in Puerto Rico. Highly recommend!

A magical excellent dining experience. Mario Pagan is a masterful chef in every of his restaurants. We live in Orlando but are originally from PR and we are loyal customers of Chayote in Winter Park. In our present trip to PR we wanted to experience Pagan’s rest in San Juan. What at excellent experience! Great service! Excellent food! We were amazed how the food was so similar and excellent as the one in Chayote in Winter Park. We definitely have become fans of Mario Pagan food and restaurants! Keep up the good work and great representation of Puerto Rican cuisine.
