The resort hotels along Avenida Isla Verde have polished restaurants aimed squarely at tourists, with prices to match. For something better value and more genuinely Puerto Rican, the Piñones kiosks a short drive east are the obvious first stop. Calle Loíza, the avenue connecting Isla Verde to Condado, has a good run of independent restaurants with a more local following — worth exploring if you have a car or are willing to take a taxi a few blocks.
