Say “Hola” to La Pizza La Pasta, a new restaurant helmed by Puerto Rico celebrity chef Roberto Treviño.

In San Juan’s Condado neighborhood, the restaurant in the 18th-century mansion previously occupied by Trevino’s Casa Lola offers a diverse selection of (you guessed it) pizza and pastas that combine traditional Italian flavors with a Latino-Criollo twist.
