2 Best Restaurants in San German, Ponce and the Porta Caribe

This ice-cream shop is a town staple, run by the same family for generations in San Germán. Their unique ice cream textures come in cones, cups, and milkshakes; flavor varieties include classics like chocolate and vanilla, and tropical flavors like coconut and pineapple. These cold treats are great for on-the-go snacking as you walk along the town's double plaza.

This bright-blue historic building houses one of San Germán's best-kept culinary secrets. Pórticos 1606 has a great mix of classic Puerto Rican food and specialty dishes from other Caribbean countries. The staff is friendly and helpful, and their grilled meats are some of the best you can get in the region. It's recommended to get several dishes to share, so everyone gets a taste of their full and impactful menu.
