This Soda was recommended by our tour guide on our recent visit to Costa Rica. Off the beaten track in downtown LaFortuna, but worth the search. We ordered casado, with chicken and a smoothe. Really enjoyed the whole experience, atmosphere and food.

Muy sabrosa y muy amable! Gracias Jeremy ❤️

Después de un día caminando en las montañas, mi esposo y yo tenemos hambre. A Soda La tía tuve muchas caminos aparcados en frente de este restaurante- siempre una buena señal! Exectamente! Deliciosa comida y muchas. Entonces cuando nos fuimos mi carro no funcionó 🙄...pero no problema porque Jeremy (nuestra camarero) ayúdame! Nosotros recomendamos este lugar- 5 estrellas! Muchas gracias 🥰 After a day of hiking in the mountains my husband and I are hungry. At Soda La Tia had many trucks parked in front, always a good sign exactly. Delicious food and more. Then when we left my car didn’t work but no problem because Jeremy (our waiter) helped me! We recommend this place - 5 stars! Thank you very muchMore

Best breakfast I had in La Fortuna

One morning we were passing by and decided to stop and try this place. We were so pleased with the food and service that we went back for the next couple of days. There's nothing fancy about this place, it's just a local spot with...good service and delicious food. There's always parking right in front of the restaurant. This a place where the locals go and eat so it's always busy. Will come back!More

Lunch

The place was recommended to us by one of our Uber drivers. It’s very reasonably priced. Menu offered a big selection of traditional Costa Rican dishes and fresh fruit smoothies. Portions are huge and tasty. The place got packed very quickly, so it was a...good thing we got there slightly before the lunch rush.More

Hidden gem

One of our tour guides recommended this soda and it was so great we went back a second time! It is definitely a local place and that is what makes it so great. Amazing food and very inexpensive. I highly recommend the casado con chuleta...(pork chop) and the casado with the chicken stew. Both were amazing!More

Great food and the best value for a meal!

This soda was recommended to us by a few locals and it was everything they said it would be. Tucked away off a side street with a very casual feel, the menu is varied and everything is extremely reasonably priced. You really can’t go wrong...with the food choices here and it feels very local and authentic. Would highly recommend for lunch!More

Great Option for Local Cuisine

Well priced Soda with outside seating. Limited vegetarian options but for a filling local breakfast it is great. We visited a couple of times to fill up before hiking and I'd recommend it as a great cheap option in La Fortuna.
