$$ Jacó Spanish

About

A Jacó saloon built for hanging out — sports on the screens, live music that brings a genuine Costa Rican vibe, and a staff that regulars name one by one for the friendly service and well-made mojitos and piña coladas. The food holds up, the decorations lean gleefully silly, and their special events (they've even done a full Thanksgiving dinner) are worth checking for.

We love this spot! We visit here often to hang out, watch sports and listen to the live music. The staff are the best! Jazz, Freddy, Hennessy, Mey, Arlin, and more that I don’t remember their names. always make great drinks and are super friendly and attentive. The food is good too, we have tried several items and have always been satisfied. Check out their special events, they are always fun!

I have absolutely no complaints about this place. The customer service was exceptional — they even pointed us toward where to keep the party going after they closed. I was a bit drunk when I ordered their wings, but I’m pretty sure they were good! One thing I am certain about is they don’t slack on the drinks. The live music was on point and gave the whole spot an authentic Costa Rican vibe that made the night even better.
