We arrived not too long after they opened. There were 9 of us and we were the only ones there. It took over 20 minutes to be served my ginger air - which was a bottle in the fridge. Instead of serving me, they cleaned the trays, bar area and did other tasks. We ordered and it took well over... More

Stumbled upon this bustling spot as it was right across the street from our hotel (1915 Hotel) and it was excellent. Had a great range of choices for the kids and adults. Great Rum drinks and really tasty different Costa Rican beers! A really friendly waiter who went out of his way to accommodate us. Small, lively, great food, fun... More

The place is nice, it is small but very cozy and with good music and ambience. The food is really good, service is good. It is hard to find this kind of places in Alajuela. You can go and have a very nice time with friends or with your partner.

I went here with a group of three last Friday. Each of us thoroughly enjoyed our meal, though we were disappointed to find that they were out of the local craft beers on their menu. Between the three of us we had two chicken dishes and one steak dish and everyone liked their food, although it wasn't anything particularly unique... More

I am puzzled by the positive reviews. Maybe it's that the waiter/bartender Rolando speaks English. But I'd suggest going to the pizza place next door (for example) instead of this place. The first strange thing was that the place was full of people from our hotel. Period. But this alone was enough to overtax the staff, with irregular, slow service.... More

This place was a little hard to find for our driver, but in an easy to get to location. The server/manager/host was delightful and certainly has his shtick down. I went with the steak special with the chimmichurri and it was tender and delicious. Everyone in the group of seven liked their dishes. I've found some of the food here... More

We would never have tried this place out without checking out trip advisor. It is an easy place to walk by and miss. Their sign is actually painted on the window. The steak and sea bass were seasoned wonderfully. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. The only downfall is the level of street noise in the restaurant but that would... More
