A great night in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico


We recently were in Old San Juan and enjoyed dining at a great seafood restaurant called Aguaviva. The atmosphere is fun and the ceiling, as you can see in the photograph, is adorned with irridescent blue and green jellyfish lamps. The place is moderately priced and in keeping with their decorative motive, serves a wide variety of fresh seafood in a style they call "seaside latino cuisine." They are famous for their great ceviche and we can say that the tuna ceviche and grouper ceviche is some of the best we have ever eaten. We enjoyed their crabcake appetizer, swordfish steak, and paella filled with mussles, scallops, clams and chorizo. All served with a chilled bottle of wine made for a memorable time. Aguaviva is easy to find at 364 Forteleza.
