We love the food, the salad bar, the gallo pinto and the juices. There are numerous different spots to sit and eat as well, with eat spot carrying a different energy and all the energy is positive. It's a great place for a lazy breakfast, coffee and good conversation.

Food is really good and the place atmosphere is good! The $3 breakfast is good but the beverage are quite expensive and you end expending much more you think OJ is fresh and the coffee is good ;)

We ate at this place located next to a highway near our hotel. It serves casual food but it is really really good. The place was packed with local Ticos and some tourists when we went.

This restaurant is one of my favorites for many reasons. Consistent, service, price and food quality. I love the fish and chips, hummus, potato appetizer (can't remember the name) and salad bar for condiments. Quick service and varied menu.

A pleasant place in Santa Ana, easily accessible and near Hwy. 27. Good, fresh fish tacos as well as other choices for almost any palate. My spicy fish and shrimp tacos were great. My dining companions' choices included the tuna steak - done to perfection; fried fish, grilled fish, smoked salmon tacos - also good. The only disappointment was a... More

If you want fresh fish tacos, this is the place to go. You get to load them up with your choice of toppings. Same menu as the original in Jaco.

Great breakfast special. Orange juice is freshly squeezed(not carton) They open early 7am. We always get the breakfast pizza for the center of table. Portions are large. The burritos are heavenly. Menu is a little confusing but full of options. Nice salad bar. Open air fun architecture. Santa Ana location has a trampoline with safety net around it( brand new)... More

We've passed this place a million times and I regret not having stopped in to try it earlier! Up close, the restaurant design and decor is really neat, you can hardly tell from the road - absolutely love the atmosphere. The food was also surprisingly exceptional! We ordered the chicken tacos (teriyaki) and the hummus plate with steak and pitas,... More
