About
Despite the name, this open-air spot is about more than tacos — think mahi teriyaki bowls, Asian bowls, ribs, and an all-you-can-eat salad bar, eaten from swing seats in a breezy, beachy setting. Servers like Vanessa get named for going above and beyond. Portions are generous; just know it can run pricey and service slows when it's busy.

We had an amazing family dinner at Taco Bar in Jacó! The relaxed, open-air vibe with swing seats and beachy atmosphere was perfect for us—super fun and laid-back. The mahi teriyaki bowl was outstanding: fresh, flaky mahi mahi glazed in a delicious teriyaki sauce, served over rice with vibrant veggies and toppings from their awesome all-you-can-eat salad bar. It was flavorful, hearty, and one of the best bowls we’ve had in Costa Rica—highly recommend it! A huge shoutout to our server Vanessa, who was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made our family feel so welcome. She gave great recommendations, checked on us regularly, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Exceptional service like hers really elevated the experience.
The food was very good here but the service was so incredibly slow. They seemed to have more than one server but only one was taking orders or providing bills. The price was also pretty high for tacos. Even for Jaco.
Shockingly, not a taco restaurant. So much variety for this outdoor restaurant. Tacos, asian bowls, hamburgers, tapas.. you'll have plenty to choose from. Inexpensive meal, food is really good and the staff are attentive. We had the burrito, 12hr ribs, Asian bowl. All very tasty and flavorful. We'd go back.
