La Tacopedia

Mexican restaurant

👍👍 As an American from California I’m not going to lie, I was skeptical at this place being “good” Mexican food. I was prepared for it to be a let down as I was raised on good Mexican food. Well, as I’m being honest, this place was AWESOME. The prices were good. I left STUFFED. The torta was phenomenal...

Santo Katrín • Escazú

Mexican restaurant

👍👍 This is good Mexican food, and both service and ambiance are quite good. We tried diced fried cheese as an appetizer, and they were crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside, good taste. The margaritas drinks were quite good as well. The tacos campechanos... right on the money... try them with...

Restaurante La Adelita Santa Ana

Mexican restaurant

😐 Amazing location with great view of Santa Ana and the Valley to the west. Great spot to catch the sunset. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Service was prompt. Cocltails were very good. Unfortunantely the food leaves a lot to be desired. Not the highest quality and a lot of the menu feels re...

Ajúa San Francisco

Mexican restaurant

😐 The food was OK, included the chips/salsa, but the service was terrible. At a "sit-down" restaurante, one expects service. There was none, even though TWO waitresses worked my table. I had to ASK for everything, from a napkin to refilling my drink. I hold the manager responsible; is there no custome...

La Hacienda Mexicana Restaurante

Mexican restaurant

👍 We really enjoyed this place’s food. The quality of the pastor was the best I’ve had in Costa Rico yet. Their horchata is just like the traditional Mexican horchata. And their salsa did not disappoint. This place can fill up quick and has some inside and outside seating.

Santokatrín • Curridabat

Mexican restaurant

👍👍 Órale wey I am going to leave five star because of the great tacos this place serves, also the service is great. The margaritas are great, the nice little bar inside to drink some straight overpriced tequilas is great. The decoration is great as well. The “Agua de Jaimaica” or Hibiscus is also great...

Pasta Pronto Express y Catering

Italian restaurant

😐 Second time here. The first time I tried and there was over and hour or two wait so this time in my trip I made reservations as soon as I landed in San Jose. The customer service was great, the food unfortunately was ok. The pasta was not Al dente but chewy and it lacked real Parmesan cheese flavor....

Tacontento • Escazú

Mexican restaurant

😠 Worst food ever . -5 stars . Ordered Classic margarita “ they asked me if i Wanted it frozen. I said no , classic margaritas don’t come frozen . That should have been my sign to leave . I ordered “tico tacos “ which was deep fried dog food with mayonnaise and salsa that tasted Like SpaghettiOs. On...

Distrito Federal • Town Center

👍👍 Great restaurant! Food tastes delicious and pricing is low considering quantity and quality. It was freshly cooked, portions were big. They had a fair amount of beverages choices.

Las Mañanitas

Mexican restaurant

👍👍 This was perhaps the best Mexican food I have ever had. I have traveled extensively and live in the West of the US and eat Mexican food all the time. This unassuming place was hands down the best flavors of Mexican cuisine I have ever had. The owner was there making the food with his wife and they w...

El Fogoncito

Mexican restaurant

👍👍 I’m disappointed that I didn’t take pictures of my tacos al pastor the first two times we went so I just had to go back a third time. Yes, the tacos are that good! Succulent meat on display, inviting staff, open kitchen and fresh taco toppings. Hot, hot, hot is salsa available or feel free to choose...

Los Antojitos Plaza Cariari

Los Antojitos

Mexican restaurant

😠 Easy one of the worst experiences I have had recently in a restaurant. The food lasted approximately 1 hour 20 minutes to be served. Notifying the waiter that they were taking too long, he responded in an unpleasant way. It is clear that it is a place that focuses on selling, they do not have the s...
