The setting is an old remodeled house in Barrio Amón, which fits: this is the kind of neighborhood restaurant where the menu reads like a love letter to Costa Rican regional cooking. The chef leans on local ingredients and sustainable catch, working through dishes like caldosa and arroz guacho from Guanacaste in a way that feels rooted rather than nostalgic. A casual dinner spot with serious intentions behind it.
