I had an incredible meal at Vianda and would not hesitate to come again. This restaurant is tastefully decorated with eclectic and fascinating pieces of art all over the place. I found myself talking about the intriguing art as much as the food! The

Due to some water issues in Old San Juan my fiancΓ©e and I pivoted to a last-minute reservation at Vianda and we were so glad that things worked out this way. Vianda is located on a relatively calm and quiet street in San Juan and features a deliciou
Fantastic experience
We went there twice in a week. Tapas restaurant with interesting recipes. Decent location. Moderately priced. Great food, great staff, great restaurant .
The hype is real.
My friend and I both agreed this is easily in the top 5 restaurants we've EVER dined at--truly unforgettable! We had zero complaints. The decor is minimal and tasteful, our waitress was outstanding (looked like Drew Barrymore), the drinks were s

Had such a lovely dinner at Vianda.
The ceviche was fresh with and bright. The mushroom soup was one of the best things I had. Very umami and great depth of flavor. The salmon was tender and flaky and was served with a creamy coconut Thai-flavored curry and sweet potato puree. Steak w
This place is off the charts.
Amazing mix of creative dishes executed perfectly. (I'm still perplexed how they made popcorn ice cream - sounds weird, but it's great!). Wait staff was attentive and helpful. I highly recommend it.

This was one of the most recommended restaurants in San Juan, so of course I went. The restaurant was very open and there weren't many tables. I liked the bar wall in the middle of the restaurant which made the space feel more intimate. We had a
Amazing meal.
Fine service. Good ambiance. The gem of our dining experiences in San Juan
I wanted to get out for at least one pretty nice meal
I wanted to get out for at least one pretty nice meal during our PR trip and I saw the chef for Vianda had multiple Beard nominations and decided to make reservations. I went in really hungover so I didn't eat as much as normal but it was still
Some of the best food and dining experience we have ever had !
OMG. Some of the best food we have ever had . We did 5 small plates and each one was better than the last ! The rabbit, the broccolini, grouper, mushroom soup, and the credo de peto, all excellent!! Understand the chef is up for another James Bear
Best restaurant in Puerto Rico!
Weβve been here 3 times and it only gets better. Great atmosphere, wonderful service and the food is unbelievable. Tonight, I had the mushroom soup with truffles. It may be the best thing Iβve ever eaten. The menu changes. Everything is fresh and
Good food but not worth the high prices
Went for dinner hoping to be blown away by our meal. The food was good and the server was very helpful. The atmosphere was nice -- we could hear each other talk and the tables were spaced out well. But we didn't think the food was worth the hype
A great Santurce gourmet option
The style of food in Puerto Rico can be a bit challenging for those of us trying to minimise consumption of starch and fat and so we were delighted to find Vianda. This is a restaurant which bucks the trend by taking its menu down a much more gourmet
Delicous food and beautiful dining room but avoid to be placed in side room
We had a delicious meal at Vianda, and the crew was friendly and charming. I love the bar, and the dining room is beautiful. What spoiled our evening was that we were placed as the only group in an overflow room with very little of the charm of the r
Bad choice
Very small portions. Overpriced!!!!. I can't recommend this restaurant! The service of the waitress wasn't the best.
Never again
The portion are very small and the price very high. I never see price like this. The location of the restaurant is a very common area in santurce nothing fancy in the location to charge high prices. I spend $480 in three person and we went to another

Great food. Great service!
We had an early dinner with a bottle of wine. Everything we ordered was delicious! The service was friendly and helpful. The serverβs recommendation of one of the dishes ended up being our favorite dish!

Vianda is a phenomenal food experience with a fusion of Mediterranean, Indian and Puerto Rican influences. The dishes are expertly crafted, prepared, and presented and Chef Guzmanβs talent is on full display in the intimate restaurant deserving of
Wow what an experience.
I went to San Juan over the weekend and was looking for a nice place to celebrate my birthday. I have to say this restaurant is top tier. They have both small and large plate options with a variety of vegetarian and seafood options. My friends and I

The attention to details since we arrived was great, we were celebrating our anniversary and they served a complementary glass of sparkling wine. Since the beginning of the dinner they were very happy to served. We shared a few appetizers and then t

Very okay. Servers super friendly and caring. But felt pretty underwhelmed given what we paid. Sat and ordered drinks, then while we waited we next ordered food. First appetizer arrived before we all had drinks (25 minutes after ordering them). Got s

10/10 all around for the TASTE Consistency Creativity Perfect Service Easily a must-visit for fans of fine dining and excellent, elevated Puerto Rican food. Doesn't hurt that the drinks and service are also top notch.
Excellent and attentive service.
Great appetizers and entrees. Try the cazuela de bacalao! The deserts are also a must.
This place was very modern and simplistic.
At first it gave me a little flashback of Mario Pagan and I was scared as I did not like the experience and emptiness of the ambiance of Mario pagan. Vianda was much better. Service was great but felt a little rush even though we had 2 hours before

Amazing spot!!! The flavors were great in each dish - I've never had batatas bravas with a sweet potato before, and really enjoyed the contrast of flavors between the sweet with the salty from the egg aioli and the perfectly cooked octopus! The torte

Dinner at Vianda
I am so thrilled that my husband went on Yelp and found this restaurant! Iβd put this up against any fine restaurant in NYC. The dishes are extremely creative, beautifully presented & absolutely delicious as well. Vianda is definitely a 5 star
Won't return ....
I have never been to San Juan before, so I researched plenty of restaurants. Couldn't get a reservation at my first choice Marmalade, so settled for Vianda as the reviews seemed impressive. Maybe it's "one of the best places in San Juan"
One time visit only.
The food is very good. Very small portions. Overpriced. Menu is very limited. Vianda only in the name. No viandas in the menu. For turists.
I saw the glowing reviews & tasting menu so I booked this
I saw the glowing reviews & tasting menu so I booked this for our last night in Puerto Rico to close out the trip. It did not disappoint. We did the tasting menu with the wine pairing. The food & wine were both delicious. I was stuffed by the
Unfortunately, we were underwhelmed by our meal at Vianda.
Admittedly, we came in with high expectations because my friend was familiar with the chef/owners and it has great reviews. But the food was just fine, nothing extraordinary. The best part of the meal was the complimentary bread - spectacular! For di
Incredible last stop on our PR excursion.
There wasn't a single thing that we ordered that we didn't love. Service and ambience were also well done. Would recommend and would go back if we lived here. Crudo, pasta and fish were musts!
One of my favorites in PR.
The do great on the mix of asian and Puerto Rican food. And great drinks to top.
Potentially the best restaurant in San Juan.
The best restaurant we ate at in San Juan, and thatβs saying a lot. My wife works at a 5 star restaurant in Minneapolis, this place was recommended by the chef. My wife had the βbest fish dish she has ever eaten in her lifeβ which was the cod.
Absolutely recommend the filet mignon with the roasted
Absolutely recommend the filet mignon with the roasted pumpkin. AMAZINGLY tender and great flavors and presentation. Definite 10/10
Just one word: COME! You won't regret.
I ordered the main item on the menu( the chef tasting one, $80) and extra $45 for 4 wines to pair with, very delicious! Pork, rabbit, beef and desert rice pudding.
We had a good time while eating at vianda.
The staff was nice and the food and drinks were good. We wouldn't necessarily go back as the prices are high for small plates.
Connect with users posting reservations for Vianda San Juan
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Vianda San Juan. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Vianda San Juan at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Vianda San Juan page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* MaternalRecord73, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at Vianda San Juan to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If MaternalRecord73 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Vianda San Juan!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
