Our Inspector's Highlights

From the moment you walk in, 1919 Restaurant captures the romance and grandeur of Condado Vanderbilt Hotel, setting the stage for one of the island’s best fine-dining experiences.
The handsome, light-filled space strikes the perfect balance between chic and relaxed, featuring dark woods and leather seats, alongside burgundy hues, metallic accents and wall-to-wall ocean views.
The menu elevates Puerto Rican cuisine by incorporating locally sourced ingredients with international techniques. Bold Caribbean flavors are paired with European culinary traditions for a celebration of the island’s vibrant food culture.
Standout dishes include inventive pastas such as spaghetti with sweet crab, fresh seafood like the wild sea bass, and locally inspired appetizers such as chayote salad with pickled ají dulce. Desserts, like mango passionfruit canelé and yuzu crèmeux promise a refreshing, island-inspired finish.
The bar program stars expertly crafted cocktails featuring local rum, fresh tropical fruits and premium Puerto Rican spirits. Try specialties like the Lady Vanderbilt (a zesty mix of Old Tom Gin, orange bitter, lemon and spice syrup) or the Honeysuckle (Don Q Cristal rum, honey and lime), while the extensive wine list offers both international and local selections.
