The staff is rude. The food was cold. The staff acted like the were doing me a favor by serving me. Do your self a favor and go some where else.

The decor is nice, although it feels kind of small inside. But the food and the experience is worth trying it at least once. Locals go too. Tip: Try to be there early as it gets packed very fast. Specially on weekends.

My boyfriend and I (from NY) were there in March 2009. The only negative was that we put our name on a waiting list an hour in advance but no table was ready when we returned. However, it worked out great because we ended up sitting at the bar downstairs which was not crowded and had GREAT ambiance! The tables upstairs were a little too close together for our preference anyways, so it worked out. Dark, with red lighting, mirrors, candles, a very trendy feel without being stuck-up.

Two years after going I am still recommending this place to friends. This place was not as pricey as some reviews make it out to be. Certainly no where near the most expensive meal I've had out, nor was it during my stay in PR. Sometimes you do get the super great meal for cheap, but let's face it most of the time you get what you pay for. Their level of quality was well above what I paid for. The service was fine, it is a busy place, so don't expect to go and have a twenty minute conversation with your waiter over places to see.

My wife and I traveled to San Juan for our honeymoon. We were told about this place called Dragonfly. What can I say about this place? The food was absolutely ORGASMIC!!!!!! DO NOT pass up the shrimp taco's or the bannana almond wontons.

Everything was luke warm, from my martini to the steak. We didn't send the drink or the calamari back, although the martini should've been cold and the calamari should've been hot. We sent the (cold) steak back. It was returned to us, still cold. We sent the cold rock shrimp tacos back. Mind you, these are all $24 items. Is it too much to expect food to be delivered HOT especially when the restaurant is half empty (no doubt because of the economny). We'd been here two years before on a prior trip to PR and dreamed of going again. Call it a nightmare. THe waiter took the steak and shrimp off (which we didn't eat) and offered us dessert on the house (which we declined). I just wanted to get out of there. We left starving and disappointed and had a slice of (hot) pizza when we got back to the hotel. At these prices, the restaurant should be able to deliver food hot.

We (two of us) arrived on time for our 9:30 reservations on a Friday night. Cool looking place, though when you walk in you are actually standing right next to someone's table. (No hostess area) Then the hostess told us that they don't actually follow reservations and that they only gave us priority seating. I really do not know what that meant. She informed us that the wait would be 20-25 minutes. So we went to the downstairs bar and I had a delicious mojito.

I heard many favorable things about Dragonfly so I went there with my girlfriend in September. Unfortunately, I would never go back.

My husband and I were in San Juan for one night and wandered into the Dragonfly looking for sustenance. We selected it because it looked busy. What a great choice!

The food was good, however, they have an unwritten dress code for men and asked my husband to wear the most ridiculous sarong to cover his legs since he showed up in shorts. He refused (from their reaction he was probably the first person to ever do so)and they still served us, but it was handled very poorly by the staff, esp. considering that we placed our name on their "priority seating" list in person while wearing shorts and they let us into the restaurant in shorts BUT never once told us that shorts for men was not ZEN. Ironic considering this is primarily a rainbow club... I don't see the ying and yang about that either.
