About
A quick taco stop on Avenida Central where the combos are clearly priced and the value holds - think three or four pork tacos with a drink for a few thousand colones. The tacos win praise across chicken, pork and beef, and the pineapple and hot sauces get called out. One caution repeated by a diner: double-check the bill before you pay.

Stopped for a quick bite with some doubt, but the food tasted great and exceeded expectations. We ordered two tacos: a vegetarian and a chicken taco set. The staff readily agreed and made us a wonderful vegetarian (though not in menu) as well as a chicken taco. The chicken was cooked very well and very well marinated. The hot sauce (though not hot for us) is very good. The pineapple sauce is very good too. Never think twice about the atmosphere or vibe of the restaurant. If you need good quality tacos in San Jose, this is the place.
10/10 vibe, location, food, and price. The extra charge for the cheese was explained to me (I declined) and the different combos with prices were clearly marked. I got the combo #1 ( 3 pork tacos and 1 enchilada) with a lemonade (included). I’ve you are on the central avenue (skip ALL of the fast food) and looking for a quick taco stop…give this spot a try!
Good tacos for relatively small price (considering costa rica). I paid 4,800crc for 5 tacos and a drink (combo#2)
