We had a reservation on Christmas evening. We were seated promptly, but that was the only prompt service we received. Only after 15 minutes of waiting and me asking for service did we receive water. It took another 45 minutes for our appetizers to arrive. The waiter seemed annoyed with us and offered no explanation or apology. The manager was helpless in resolving our service issues. No one ever came to take our food order, so we left after 90 minutes of arriving.

Special 5 course menu for Christmas Eve. Appetizer was excellent. Burrata Dali's very good. Fish tasted a bit too fishy but was ok. Fillet of beef over Roquefort didn't have any Roquefort, was dry, overcooked and mushy...as if it was treated with tenderizer. Dessert was good. The meal seemed rushed(out in 1:20). Terribly overpriced. Expected something special.

Great little restaurant in a very historic building. Staff are fantastic; they work hard and are very friendly. Food is also great. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner here and food was always consistent. Only negative comment is that they were understaffed for Christmas week. There were far too few staff and they were doing every job - bar tending, waiting tables, cleaning, seating people… Otherwise, we really loved it!

A beautiful hotel with a nice courtyard restaurant. Great drinks and casual food. Service is friendly and quicker that the usual PR tempo. If you’re at the top of the hill this is a great place to rest your feet with a snack and a cool drink.

This restaurant has improved exponentially over the years. I visited with a client on 12/19 and received STELLAR service. Monica was our server; she went above and beyond. Apps were amazingly tasty. Entre was delicious. Apps were brought out as requested: slowly. I definitely will return again, and again whenever I'm on the island.

Server knew nothing about the food on the menu. It tasted mediocre at best. I’ve been coming to el convento hotel to eat for many years, their restaurant has never fail so badly, food wise. The service was impeccable though. Wine selection also excellent.
