Aliado

“Our dinner here was one of the highlights of our trip to Old San Juan Puerto Rico. We were seated at the bar and that was such a treat, it felt like having our own bartender. JJ was amazing and so friendly. We learned so much about the food, local digs and just about anything we could ask a local. The drinks he made were great. The waitresses were so helpful too. It felt like dining at someone’s home. The food is outstanding. All vegetarian menu was limited so we ended up ordering most of what’s on the menu and yes we loved all of it. Dishes came one after the other like a tasting menu so we had a chance to appreciate the each one. It was so good we returned the next evening for pizza night.Highly recommended!”

“We stumbled upon this little gem and loved it so much we came twice during our stay! Such a relaxed and friendly vibe, amazing food and the cocktails are out of this world. Kudos to bartender JJ, chef Jerome and the rest of the kind staff who made our dining experience great!”

“Gem!! Such a wonderful bar and restaurant. Great personal atmosphere, amazing food and great drinks. Focus on local ingredients and authentic taste. I had a potato-mushroom soup, the popular caprese, the beet tartare, and the pistachio crème brûlée. The cashew mozzarella is out of this world. The homemade watermelon drink is so refreshing. The bartender, the head chef and the whole team are incredibly friendly and welcoming.”

“Simply the best. #1. All the ⭐️ belong to the culinary artist Chef Jerome and Aliado. The unique food, drinks, vibes, and service are outstanding. Better than plant-based restaurants across the US and Europe, including Michelin-starred spots. You’ll hear others say the same while you’re there and you’ll read it in the reviews. Chef Jerome is the pioneer and a master of modern plant-based cuisine in Puerto Rico and a true inspiration. Long before Aliado existed, he was already redefining what plant-based food could be and he keeps raising the bar year after year. He’s a visionary, an innovator, and an influential figure for all other chefs. Aliado feels like an open invitation into his creative genius and to his remarkable story, which has largely remained a secret. I can’t wait for the day it’s written in a book for the world to know. Pay close attention to the decor and the food as they offer subtle glimpses of that journey. Try it for yourself and thank me later. I’ll keep coming back again and again…😍 PS: Save room for dessert. You’re welcome! 😋”

Each dish I have enjoyed has been a delightful testament to culinary innovation, bursting with flavor while skillfully showcasing the potential of plant-based eating. The staff is impeccably trained; their professionalism and attention to detail enhance the overall dining experience, whether through their prompt service or knowledgeable recommendations. The atmosphere of the restaurant is inviting, combining an elegant yet comfortable aesthetic that encourages patrons to linger and savor their meals. It is evident that the owners are committed to maintaining high standards in both food quality and customer service, making this establishment a standout in the realm of clean dining. Their dedication not only contributes to the restaurant's successful reputation but also promotes the broader mission of plant-based living, which I wholeheartedly support. In summary, this restaurant is a remarkable addition to the local dining scene, worthy of frequent visits for anyone seeking delicious and health-conscious cuisine. Daisy💚🌱”
