The guide that took us to the Venado caves recommended this small, open-air soda (Costa Rican for small restaurant or diner). The menu has English translations so it is easy to order even if you don't speak the language. The food is very simple but delicious and so much better than the restaurants we tried that cater to the tourist... More

This was hands down our favourite meal in Fortuna. Excellent prices, delicious fish and amazing fruit shakes!

Ate here at the suggestion of some people we met on a tour. Food was good, service was fast but we weren't 'wowed' like we were at the nearby Soda Viquez. Although the prices here are lower, you also get less sides (and no rice pudding at the end of your meal). Our meal came to something like $8.00 for... More

This place is to the L of the bus stop. We ordered a milk shake, a more juice (blackberry) a burger and fries and a casado lunch. We were full and happy and refreshed at teh end of the meal and it cost us 5100 colones. 1800 for the burger, 2000 for the casado. We put down $11 and walked... More

Went here for breakfast, typical tico food, quick and fast. Great service, good prices. Since we have been coming here over the last few weeks the owners are very friendly as well as the locals. Highly recommended.

A lot of food in town in Americana, which is sad because Tico food is AMAZING. This place offers local people and local food. Very reasonable pricing. No english spoken, but we were able to order with broken spanish. It's not fancy at all, but it's fun!!

Next to the bus station to the Parque Nacional Arenal, this little soda is a splendid surprise, offering the usual huge plates of "eggs+rice+whatever you can eat" at the usual low Costarica prices. If you are lucky, you will find the Totti looking guy who will make an uforgettable batido. Note: the day of our leaving, we had forgotten our... More

Stopped here on a recommendation from a local. The food was good, quick and priced just right. They have a mixed menu with lots of local food as well as hamburgers and sandwiches. We did not tried the hamburgers or sandwiches, but the local food was great.

This place is easy to miss. It's all outdoor, the staff didn't speak English, but it was very good food at very cheap prices. Lots of locals were there and the food came quickly. A good option for those staying at hotels with expensive restaurants!
