About

A tortillería where the empanadas steal the show — one traveler called the beef-and-cheese empanada life-changing. Costa Rican tacos, quesadillas de camarón, and casados round it out, all made fast, cheap, and authentic. Breakfast comes with a free drink, and the prices beat the tourist-strip restaurants nearby.

I got a couple different dishes from here - a Costa Rican taco and an empanada. Both were flavourfully delicious and ready so quickly. This was a favourite spot to grab a quick snack or meal.

Great prices and even better empanadas. The beef and cheese empanada was life-changing. The steak and onion casado was okay, but the empanadas were the star of the show.
