Beautiful with good service, but a little too expensive.
La Terapia sits like a cool oasis on the otherwise blazing hot Ponce. It's a comfortable place with nice tables and air conditioned salons.
The food is excellent, and generally very good tasting and fresh. They even have fresh plantains which are super hard to find.

Read moreThe lunch special was delicious, it has a great seasoning. The caprese chicken breast was exquisite and juicy, the “jibaro” rice was on another level.
I can't leave the almond flan behind. Wow! It was spectacular, not very sweet and it's home made.
Very good service, attention and the place is very cozy.
I loved everything....
