“Best Wet Burritos this side of Laredo”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2013

Very good food - Find many expats out front playing dominoes or cards. Open 24/7. Only problem was my inability to fully explain to our waitress we wanted lunch not breakfast. We were told lunch was at noon and as it was only 11 we had to wait. Fortunately another waitress straightened it all out once we seen other diners eating lunch. Recommend the "wet" burrito.

“Great Place!! Best Tacos Ive Ever Had”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

Was staying in Jaco Beach. We stopped in the Jaco Taco after some other travelers recommended it. They were right. The food was incredible and the owner was very nice. Also the portions were huge! I highly recommend the steak tacos!

“Open 24 hours - best tex mex food in Costa Rica”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 30, 2012

We have been going for several years and it is one of the must goes on ever Jacó visit. The most "L.A. like tex mex food" in Costa Rica. Enchiladas, red refried beans, rice. Really good. Live music, usually a little bit too loud and not the most excellent service, casual, but simply really good food.
