Definitely the best Pizza Shop in Old San Juan.... Love it... everything was great... the entrees, the drinks and the Pizza... The customer service by Glorian was A+... Place is always busy, so make reservations... and if you have to wait, theres a bar across the street from the side entrance (Tanca Stthat makes the waiting very smooth... 😜

The pizza was fantastic and the wait staff were so nice. The wait was super long and my pizza wasnt hot when I got it. I would have given one more star off but the pizza was good!

Good place, we order pizza with a request no cheese. They didn’t took our order correctly. I was ready to return it but my friends was not feeling the best. I don’t like when I’m hungry and expect something and my expectations aren’t met. :(

Great spot for dinner in San Juan. The building is very old and has a lot of charm. The staff was really friendly and service was quick. Only complaint would be that the food is a bit greasy.

Delicious pizza, great service. We met one of the owners and he told us the whole story about the building. We love Old San Juan and it felt almost magical to spend our evening in one of the building. Great job to the owners on keeping the character!

Nice 2nd floor bar / pizza restaurant in the Old San Juan area.Hard to find entrance and steep stairs to the second floor dining room.Really nice old world vibe, high ceilings.Pizza was NY style with a very chewy crust.Nice red sauce with fair amount of cheese and pepperoni.Fresh cut fries were really good 👍 I would have ordered a second if wasnt 3 beers into the visit.Good beer selection but no draft beers as the tap refrigeration system was kaput.Going to put this place on my to go to list.

Heads up for anyone that makes a reservation. If you dont arrive within 15 minutes of the starting hour for your reservation, you loose it. Although we had to wait for about an hour to get properly seated, the pizza was good, and the rustic theme was very nice. I especially enjoyed their homemade marinara sauce; I think it added a lot of flavor to the pizza. Definitely would recommend. Just make sure to arrive early if you have a reservation.

This place was AMAZING! From the front greeter to our server,Gloria! The attention and friendliness was wonderful! We asked for beer and juice to drink. A salad and carne frita as appetizer. And 2 individual pizzas . Margherita was super delicious! I would absolutely recommend the pizza here . Lastly we ordered a flan de queso which to me pretty much was like cheesecake..but no complaints here! That was delicious too!

The pizza itself was pretty good. However the dining area was too hot and I was getting eaten by mosquitoes the whole time I was eating indoors. My waitress was a bit unwelcoming.

Let me start by saying the food and drinks were excellent! So delicious but the service from the first waitress andwaiter were was not. I don’t know what the problem was but she had a very obvious attitude problem. Not sure if it was because we were the only black ppl in there but it was clear that she was not happy to serve us. Then another guy came over and we asked for water. Every other table had regular glasses of water but he gave us small plastic cups. And gave some weird excuse as to why we couldn’t have a glass. Ppl came in after us and got a regular glass of water. What’s going on here? Please treat all of your patrons with respect.

Excellent pizza and pizza options. We ordered a large chorizo pizza and garlic knots to go. Perfect amount of sauce and cheese on the pizza and the crust is amazing. We were not thinking about pizza before going to San Juan, however I’m happy we did.

We had lunch here based on a local recommendation. It was awesome! We got the 7 queso pizza and it was probably the best cheese pizza I have ever had! The breadsticks were very good as well!

We ate so much food and it was all delicious. My kids normally don’t like mushrooms, but we all enjoyed the stuffed mushrooms and calamari. The cilantro dipping sauce for the calamari is addictive. We also ordered a margarita pizza, a pepperoni pizza, a seven cheese pizza, the one with chorizo and pico, and another with all meat. The kids all said it was the best pizza they had ever had. It was very good and what was leftover was eaten later that day. The lemonade is fresh and also good. Very cool atmosphere and Miguel couldn’t have done a better job as our server.

Love the food and the vibe. I came here once in 2017 and I had decided since then to visit this restaurant every time I visit PR. Never a disappointment. They have the best gnocchi I have ever had & their pasta sauce (pink sauceis the best. Would highly recommend this! And + pina colada

The best pizza ever, their ingredients are the freshest from the dough to the cheese. Be sure to reserve early and be patient for their food, I assure you once it hits the table you’ll be in heaven.

Very good spot. The pizza feels like its a mix of origins in the best of ways. The cheese does not stay on top of the dough and tends to fall off, a pet peeves of mine. But still, best pizza Ive had in awhile. Empanadas were also very tasty, the argentinian one was the best!

Pizza pizza pizza! Do you feel like eating authentic pizza? You have found the place, this is the best pizza in old San Juan. The garlic bread is to die for and the service is superb. We really liked the different pizzas and ended up having to take some food home. Definitely a place I will visit again.

Pirilo in Old San Juan was one of the highlights of my trip. Walking into the restaurant is an adventure and finally look and how beautiful and rustic is all the decor make this place the perfect one for a nice dinner. The night staff was so awesome, Miguel, Yasiris, Patricio, Ambar, Bethany and Kayla they all are superstar and Im truly amaze. There professionalism and lovely personality were a plus. They even left me a note because I approached them to leave them a nice comment. The food selection was beyond tasty. The croquetas with manpostial flavor were amazing, they made a recommendation about making half and half pizza with 2 different choices and they nailed it. This is the type of experience you will never forget and that is how a business growth and turn to be successful. Quality, menu options, superstars staff from kitchen, host to the servers and bartender. Thank you guys for this amazing experience and I will definitely comeback to see you and taste more of your amazing menu selections. Gracias por hacer un boricua feliz y orgulloso de saber que los turistas estan en buenas manos con su extraordinario servicio.

Best Pizza in Old San Juan. Try the Nuditos (bread knotsand the Octopus as appetizers. We tried the PECADO Pizza....OMG, Love to be a Sinner. (Actually it is Heaven and Hell, because the other half is a Salmon Pizza, to be a good boy).At this monent they are expanding their facilities, so you will be seated in the 2nd floor, which is cozy and weirdly beautiful. Ask for Jeannete; she is great.

Flavor was spot on. Great combinations were recommended by the bar tender and food came out after being made fresh. Local beers were pretty tasty too. The amount of spinach lettuce was a little too much for me on a pizza. Was expecting it cut up under the cheese and not a full salad on the pizza. Quality was top notch though. Cant wait to come back and try more.

Great pizzas, vibes and service! Right as we put our drink order in, the power went out. Our server didn’t skip a beat and brought out our drinks and made sure we could still order some pizzas. We got half rosada, half di genoveva. One of the best pizzas I’ve had. We also tried the EMPANADILLITAS ARGENTINAS which were delicious.Heads up that when we went (Apr 2022they required proof of vaccination.

Great pizza and a fantastic selection of beers with descriptions. The local has a historic vibe to it hidden upstairs by a winding staircase. So around a great experience with very friendly staff

To start, the entry to the restaurant is super weird because they shut down the downstairs. But dont let that stop you. After a creepy walk up the murder stairs it opens up to a beautiful bar and restaurant. The pizza was great and the service was okay. The food made it worth it though.

Local bar and pizzeria. We decided to order from the Tapas menu. We had the sampler so we could try all the different empanadas, and I thought the best was the Argentinian. We also really liked the yucca fritters and the highlight was the Arugula salad and the fried chorizo and cheese. We both tried the momma signature cocktail and found it a little bit sweet. I would suggest sticking with the pizzas, that looked like really the call here.

Wow! What a place. Amazing old world charm...a little staircase takes up for the second floor where the restaurant is. The food is phenomenal!! The pizza, the lasagna, the cocktails, everything we tried. So flavorful and fresh. This was a highlight meal for our whole trip. I highly recommend! Also, the staff was very kind and accommodating. Just make sure to get there early enough to put your name in so that you can have dinner before its too late in the evening.

The place is nice, staff nice as well. Drinks we had were very good, but the pizza itself didn’t seem that great, unfortunately. Was kinda lacking flavor, even though we asked for two different strong toppings. Worth to point that one large pizza was more than enough for the two of us. With drinks, around $50 a couple.

2nd time weve been here. The pizzas are fantastic! Be prepared to climb some steep stairs to get to the dining area as there are no longer tables downstairs. Will continue to visit when in PR.

Absolutely amazing. The only slight downside was the wait for 15 minutes but we did just show up without a reservation the same evening. The food was completely amazing, the staff was super friendly, and the restaurant is beautiful. The best part was when I ordered a beer, when the waiter informed me they were out of that specific one, he took time to bring out 6 other types and explain to me the similarities those 6 had to the 1 I wanted. Completely amazing

Excellent pizza, got a large tripletas pizza, excellent value considering the size and taste. The sangria was unique and quite nice, but where this place truly shines is it’s great value, great quality pizza pies. Split a large pizza with 2-4 people (you will have leftovers if just two of you)

Had a great lunch here. A perfect midday stop in old San Juan. We had the Hawaiian pizza. It was excellently prepared with the tropical twist of a topping of mango sauce. Even though the day was only in the 80s the a.c. was nice to help recharge. The service was great and we loved the ambience.
