It was the best meal by far I've ever had in my 20 years in Costa Rica. I would say this restaurant can be compared to any of the better ones you'll find across Europe.

We had an excellent dinner at the Park Cafe, it was an excellent surprise to find such a fine restaurant in San Jose, it could be in any fine restaurant city: London, Paris, New York, Sao Paulo. It's located in an old house in a residential street, in fact, it's not easily found, if taking a taxi it's better to... More

One of the few restaurants in the San Jose that I'd actually call a "culinary experience." It's a quirky joint - even with open tables you usually won't get seated without a reservation, and they are typically closed at least a couple months out of every year. Knowing all this going in, just make sure you call ahead and plan... More

The food is excellent and the service like in no other place! The chef/owner walked with us for 2 blocks and got us a taxi after the one we had waiting for us left us there! Anyone who goes to San Jose should definitely try to include Park Cafe as one of their places to visit, will not be dissapointed!!!

We felt so lucky to stumble on an extraordinary meal in Park Cafe. We were staying across the street in the lovely Aparthotel La Sabana, so we kind of stumbled in, but if we had looked it up on Trip Advisor, we would have known that it was one of the top rated spots for a meal in the whole... More

Nothing for you who don´t eat meat - the only dish without meat is fish. But good! And, best of all, the dessert. Five desserts in one för only 8500 colones, all of them fantastic. Don´t miss it!

This hidden wonder of a restaurant is wonderful. The surroundings are unique, the service perfect, and the cuisine magical. The chef typically serves customers himself; it's almost like eating in a friend's home (if that friend is also a Michelin Starred chef). The cost is not too dear either, especially when matched with the food (which is actually art, delicious... More

Looking back over a lifetime of incredible meals in 50 plus countries around the world I cannot remember a menu put together with more imagination anywhere. The delightful combination of meats, soups, pastas and sauces had my taste buds standing up and cheering in anticipation of the next bite. We watched fascinated as Richard and his staff marched in a... More
