A foodies review of Triana Tapas
We visited Triana Tapas & Flamenco in the afternoon, right when it opened, and that was perfect for a family looking for cold drinks and a small bite to eat.
Can’t recommend it enough as a great spot to catch a break from a warm San Juan afternoon.
My kiddo who’s *pretty much* out of the stroller phase (read: we didn’t bring one to San Juan) had a full-on nap the moment we arrived!
I think all the cobblestone streets and outdoor playground we discovered wiped him out.
And the staff at this restaurant couldn’t be any more kind about it… one actually set up 3 chairs in a row and laid down clean table linens so he could sleep…
I, myself, almost wanted to take a nap there, because the AC was perfect and we had just visited an outdoor workout area.
But, if you can relate, my kiddo pretty much *never* does a sleep transfer successfully…
And so he woke up and joined us for a chilled lemonade, crispy and creamy croquettes, and perfectly cooked french fries.
