Maybe it's the Pan-Asian Caribbean fusion theme, (you have to try the duck nachos here). Maybe it's the smoky, intimate, red-hued atmosphere, which lends itself to huddling over a table and sharing a delicious meal. Or maybe it's the location, on Fortaleza Street in Old San Juan.

Whatever the reason, we love the sensual vibe at Dragonfly, which remains cozy even as it stays bustling and ever-popular with the locals. And the excellent menu doesn't, romantic decor and extensive cocktail menu doesn't hurt.

Fortaleza Street has some of the best restaurants in the city, but only one of them made it on this list: Trois Cent Onze, or 311. Unlike its flashier, hipper neighbors, this French stalwart maintains a quiet elegance and a serenity often bereft in the frenzy caused by the popular eateries in Old San Juan's most popular dining destination.

The restaurant also keeps to itself when it comes to its cuisine; that is, it is strictly and purely French, rather than a fusion of Puerto Rican and Mediterranean flavors. If you have a group of ten or more, opt for the Group Menu. In Old San Juan, 311 is refreshingly far from the maddening crowds.
