Lonely Planet review for Nuyorican Café

If you came to Puerto Rico in search of authentic salsa music, the legend still lives on at the Nuyorican Café. San Juan’s hottest nightspot is a congenial hub of live Latino sounds and hip-gyrating locals that easily emulates its famous New York namesake. Stuffed into an alley off Fortaleza, opposite a nameless drinking hole, you get everything from poetry readings to six-piece salsa bands that squish onto the stage here. And you’ll meet people too – the Nuyorican is refreshingly devoid of pretensions or dance snobbery. Things usually get interesting around 11pm-ish.
