True to its name, the Chef’s Table feels gloriously indulgent, inviting lucky diners on a hedonistic journey encapsulating Antonio Pérez’s life in Puerto Rico and his culinary career across South America, Europe, and Asia.

The themed-driven five-course menu changes monthly along with its wine pairing.

Do not reserve a number of diners higher than desired, in our kitchen everything is prepared for all confirmed reservations, as such, we will regard it as a no show who has failed to comply with the reservation.

What an amazing experience!!! Our reservation was made for an engagement celebration, I called ahead informing the staff of the surprise and they did not miss their mark! Everything I pre ordered was ready for us as we arrived at the table. We had so much fun that I do not recall the gentleman’s name who took care of us (maybe Juan Pierre?) but excellent service! He was patient, he gave us suggestions, and ensured that the entire party had everything they needed. Overall wonderful experience, I will suggest to my friends and family when in the area every time! Great job Chef Carol!

Fantastic experience at Cocina Abierta! The food and presentation were amazing. Truly a 5-star experience. We had the 5-course tasting menu and each course was great. Our favorite was the tuna carpaccio and beefsteak, but all were excellent. Puerto Rican fine dining at its best!
