Food Scene

My personal selection when traveling as a family to Jaco. Good food, attractive prices and great atmosphere. Very popular with visitors and locals.
My favorite place among all. Typical Costa Rican food, the way ticos eat at home. Freshly cooked, tastes really good, portions are huge and prices are very reasonable.

They serve fantastic seafood in a terrace or on the seashore. A little pricey but worth it for special occasions. In the same place is El Novillo Alegre, the best steak restaurant in town, Argentine style. Recommended!
