This spot is noted for its comfortable cafe ambience and proximity to the Old San Juan museums. The rear garden dining areas are most pleasant. The food is creative and light, featuring a grilled chicken sandwich with bacon and sofrito (fried tomato and onion) mayonnaise that is a must. Also good are the tapas: codfish croquettes, corn fritters, arrowroot fritters, and ground-beef--and-guava dumplings. Live music Friday night. Open daily for dinner, Tuesday-Sunday for lunch also. $-$$$. Most major credit cards. 106 Calle San Sebastian, Old San Juan, San Juan. Phone 787-722-8635. http://www.amadeuscafe.com.
