Numero Uno Piñones is a new, must-try culinary experience for foodies visiting San Juan.
Numero Uno Piñones is the newest addition to Puerto Rico's Piñones neighborhood, best known for its Afro-Caribbean culture and the allure of its street food vendors. The neighborhood is also more secluded, with less tourism and busy foot traffic compared to greater San Juan. The vibes of this area are fun, friendly, and celebratory -- an authentic experience surrounded by beach and a wooded lagoon.
Just a 15-minute drive from downtown San Juan, Numero Uno Piñones is situated on the Piñones lagoon, in a beautiful Mangrove forest within the boundaries of a national forest. The ocean and beaches are easily accessible from the lagoon via a 5-minute boat ride.

Indoor and Outdoor Piñones Dining
Whatever brings you to Piñones, Numero Uno has something to offer. You may be visiting to check out the unique food scene. In that case, we have a cool spot with great dining options, food and drink available right alongside our pool. We are excited to celebrate the local flavor while adding our twist to familiar Puerto Rican staples.
Unique Vegan and Vegetarian Puerto Rico Dining Options
Numero Uno Piñones offers upscale vegan and vegetarian takes on Puerto Rican staples. Try our seasoned and flame-grilled cauliflower Pinchos, our beyond meat stuffed tostones, or our staple BBQ jackfruit tacos. All of our food is prepared in our kitchen using fresh, local ingredients that are healthy and vegan friendly.
What's on the Menu?

Beyond-stuffed Tostones
Across the Spanish-speaking world you might have heard them called Patacones, Tachinos or Chatinos. Our Puerto Rican take on double-fried plantains aims to surprise and delight -- we double-fry our plantains and fill them with a savory stuffing. Nosh on your choice of ground beef or Beyond Beef.

Tacos
Our unique Jackfruit tacos are one of our vegan favorites. Also on the menu are fresh Mahi Mahi and steak options, seasoned Caribbean-style.

Pinchos
Numero Uno elevates one of Piñones staple items -- char-grilled seasoned meat skewers -- and offer them in a variety of styles and flavors. Vegan, vegetarians and carnivores alike will love our unique take on this local Caribbean specialty, our Pinchos de Cauliflower a la Criolla, marinated in a tangy Creole salsa before meeting the grill.

Arepas
Puerto Rico's rendition of the globally popular Arepa is made with wheat or coconut flour. Our 'Arepas de Coco' are topped with a zesty jumbo shrimp and our house criolla.
