Epicuro — Restaurant in San Juan

Five stars is not enough for the incredible experience that Antonio and Sarah provide at Epicuro!

As Chef Antonio said, this is not a restaurant but rather it is his and Sarah’s home that they welcome us into. This 12-seated Chef’s Table is an experience and conversation with those around you as well as with the food that speaks volumes while allowing you to be curious.

Chef Antonio makes this experience extremely welcoming and accessible for anyone from all walks of life. Sarah made our day when she was so kind in emails leading up to potentially attending the November Cheese month. I had emailed her to see if there were two spots available and she put us on her list and crossed her fingers for us! When we got the email that two spots had opened (on our wedding day) it was the most beautiful gift to us!

Sarah continued to be warm, welcoming, and connective on a human to human level. Antonio took us on a journey of the ingredients and how cheese was highlighted in each dish, not to mention the wine pairing that Sarah would create to emphasize each flavor!

Truly one of the biggest highlights of our trip! Beyond grateful that we were able to experience the creation and knowledge...

As someone who’s passionate about creative cuisine and has dined at dozens of Michelin-starred restaurants around the world, I can confidently say: Epicuro is my favorite restaurant in Puerto Rico — and one of the best anywhere.

If the Michelin Guide were in Puerto Rico, this place would easily deserve two stars. The culinary experience is imaginative, rooted in Puerto Rican culture, and executed with a level of precision and heart that’s rare to find.

Sarah and Chef Antonio — the extraordinary couple behind Epicuro — have created something truly special. From the moment you arrive, Sarah makes you feel like you’re walking into a close friend’s home. The service is impeccable, the ambiance is warm, and the entire experience is full of thoughtful, unexpected moments.

And the food? Simply spectacular. Every dish is a celebration — of flavor, of creativity, of Puerto Rico and International cuisine.

Antonio and his 3-person team delivered a unique gastronomic experience full of Puerto Rican influence infused with his 20-year culinary adventures in South America and Barcelona. A single-seating of 5 courses to include scallops, duck, grouper, short ribs, and Puerto Rican cacao soufflé: and that was just our menu tonight! He works with vendors everywhere to provide the freshest ingredients. At the chef’s table you’ll get a behind the scenes experience of an up-scale meal with a direct line to ask any and all questions to the chef and his team from how a dish was prepared to recommendations for local places. Antonio has a great and entertaining delivery made even better by the quality of the food. His staff, his wife and partner, are absolutely exceptional. If you are in Puerto Rico as a native or a tourist, make his restaurant a priority. Easiest 5 stars I’ve given in...
