This was one of the best meals we had on our trip throughout CR. The food was authentic, delicious, and inexpensive. Our meals came served with a beet/potato/egg salad, a garden salad, plantains, chicken, and of course rice and beans. The servings were big. Great place for an authentic Tico meal.

This is a nice and tasty Costa Rican restaurant, with the local dishes nicely prepared. Prices are OK for the location.

We've been back to this restaurant a few times. The food has been consistently good, and the service very friendly. It has been spotlessly clean the times we have been - you seem to see the staff of this restaurant cleaning more often than any other restaurant. It is a little soda on a dusty village street in Costa Rica,... More
