Restaurante Donjuan

We hosted our rehearsal dinner here, and it was truly unforgettable. From the moment we began planning, the team made everything seamless and stress-free. They graciously allowed us to arrive early to set up personalized menus and welcome bags for our guests—a small gesture that meant a lot to us. Throughout the evening, the service was impeccable. The person overseeing the servers kept me updated on drink orders and flow, which gave me peace of mind and let me focus on enjoying the night. Towards the end of the dinner, Chef Juan came out to greet our guests—a thoughtful touch that made everyone feel special and added a personal warmth to the experience. The food was beyond delicious. Every dish was beautifully prepared, and the apple tart was a clear favorite—our guests are still talking about it. The restaurant itself is stunning, easily one of the most beautiful in Cartagena, with decor that feels both sophisticated and inviting. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to kick off our wedding weekend. Thank you to the entire team for making this night so memorable.

The Food is absolutely incredible, everything was amazing and worth going. By far the best restaurant in Cartagena. Really really good. - Ceviche is amazing! - Langostinos also so good!! - The Pulpo as an entree was amazing! Must say that the service was slow and they forgot about us a couple of times. But overall decent. Atmosphere is really nice, they took the time to create a very unique restaurant and the attention to detail is noticeable.

This restaurant was highly recommended to us by someone who had lived in Cartagena for over 40 years when we said we wanted some fresh fish and something away from the tourist style bars/cafes of the old town. This turned out to be a very good recommendation. This restaurant is a reasonable size and tables are well spaced apart so you can have a good, uninterrupted, conversation. The food choice is good and the dishes very nicely prepared and presented. The staff are friendly and helpful with their limited English. They have menus in English. Prices are reasonable. Wish I'd found this earlier in our trip.

Recommended by a Colombian friend. It’s a beautiful restaurant, spacious but intimate. A perfect place for a date night. Everything is unbelievable delicious and very reasonably priced for a quality dinner (by UK standards) I particularly liked the tuna/fresh fish entree. Definitely recommend if you want some good food ;)

DonJuan offers excellent cuisine with creative flavors and a refined touch. The cocktails are just as good – perfectly crafted and a great complement to the dishes. A must-visit in Cartagena!
