We have breakfast, lunch or dinner here on a regular basis. One block from the beach and delicious! The service is excellent even in the wee hours of the morning and the Raspberry Smoothie is to absolutely die for:)

We were in Jaco and tired of the high prices and so so quality of the food on the main Track. We found Posiedon and were surprised by the portions and quality. The Fish and chips are amazing.

Stopped by this little restaurant during my last visit to Jaco. It wasn't bad but it also wasn't super special. The service was okay and the food was filling.

I was surprised at the quality of food for the money. We enjoyed their couple dinner special $35 for a shared large appetizer and 2 main course and dessert. If you want air conditioned comfort head upstairs. We continue to make this a regular stop with friends on limited budgets.

This is a small Hotel, 20-25 rooms, in the middle of town with a pool. The rooms are clean and ample. The help is very friendly and the free breakfast is great.

Have eaten here several times and always bring our guests that come visit us here for dinner. You cannot beat the two for $35 dinner special, appetizer, 2 entrees and desert. I love the mahi mahi, hubby loves the tuna steak or filet mignon. The spicy shrimp fritters are a great appetizer and so are the onion rings (although they... More

This place was not what we expected. A small noise sports bar on the third floor. We ordered the $35 special. The chicken lettuce wraps were served as ground chicken. The ribs had a funny flavor and were tough along with the under cooked vegetables. Two of us at the table had them and did not like them. I eat... More

We are so sorry to hear you did not have good experience at this Poseidon. As you can see most our reviews are very good. I personnally smoke the Ribs for 4 hours and have many, many, many compliments on them, most all of them are fall off the bone. If our server did not offer you discount, again we... More

Great little unassuming restaurant/bar on a side street in downtown Jaco. Fantastic service and even better food. We all had appetizers and then different kinds of seafood. I love finding local places like this with fantastic food. We go once a year and this place will be on our list every time.
