La Cava

Frommer's Review

Designed like a hive of venerable rooms within a 19th-century coffee plantation, this is the most appealing and elaborate restaurant in Ponce. It has a well-trained staff, a sense of antique charm, well-prepared cuisine, and a champagne-and-cigar bar. Menu items change every 6 weeks but might include duck foie gras with toasted brioche, Parma ham with mango, cold poached scallops with mustard sauce, fricassee of lobster and mushrooms in a pastry shell, and grilled lamb sausage with mustard sauce on a bed of couscous. Dessert could be a black-and-white soufflé or a trio of tropical sorbets.
