While in Puerto Rico we wanted to support the movement for food sovereignty through sustainable farm to table dining and it led us to Verde Mesa which was an incredible dining experience. The moment we entered the restaurant we were greeted with boisterous conviviality and an ambiance that was cozy, creative, and full of personality. The Local Tomato Salad was excellent, even our 16 year old was surprised how much he liked it because he usually doesn't eat tomatoes. Vegan friendly menu. The Verde Mesa Rice was a really standout dish and the guys loved the Purple Cloud dessert. This is a restaurant I can't wait to go back to.
Verda Mesa is a gem in San Juan! This farm-to-table restaurant not only delivers fresh, flavorful dishes but also a truly memorable dining experience. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with just the right mix of rustic elegance and cozy charm.
We ordered the arroz verde with snook (robalo) on top, and it was simply outstanding—the flavors were vibrant, perfectly balanced, and beautifully presented. Every bite felt like it was crafted with care and made from thoughtfully sourced ingredients.
The service was excellent as well—attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming, which added even more to the experience. From the atmosphere to the presentation, every detail reflected passion and dedication.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking delicious food with a local touch and an atmosphere that feels both special and comfortable.

Wonderful farm-to-table restaurant with eclectic global dishes. Great service. Great view; sit by the windows if you can. NOTE: They charge you $3.50 per person for their unlimited self-bottled water (still or sparkling).
One of the loveliest and most delicious dining experiences I’ve ever had. We had dinner there one night and returned for lunch the next day so we could try more of the menu. Such a beautiful restaurant, with the most beautiful staff, and truly stellar food that is beautifully fresh and connected to the land. We love you guys!
