LA SOMBRILLA ROSA — Restaurant in San Juan

The owner did not have any soap in the bathrooms. There was a door that read in Spanish that only employees could go in. A friend from the states opened the door, because he didn’t know how to read in Spanish, to ask for soap. The guy inside told him he didn’t had any, but before anything else happened the lady owner started cursing nasty words at my friend (in Spanish) and pushed him out.

She also parks illegally her car on the handicapped space in front of the business being inconsiderate about those in real need of the handicapped parking.

For a better experience and customer service, go to the bar across the street...
