Stumbled into this cafe while killing time near the theater foyer. The apple pie with ice cream was the highlight&mdash;warm, not too sweet, and the coffee came out with this little theatrical presentation. Staff were friendly enough. Prices felt fair for the area. Wouldn&#39;t mind stopping by again if I&#39;m in the neighborhood.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Dim sum was solid, roast duck had that nice crispy skin. Portions are big, almost too big for one person honestly. Service was fast which I appreciated since I was in a hurry. Place gets busy around noon so come early if you want a table.

The Tico chicken was the star&mdash;really flavorful and nicely plated. Beef dish looked a bit dull and small though. Still, the old lodge vibe made it a decent stop.

The Henry Blend is seriously like nothing I&rsquo;ve tried before 😍 so unique. Also grabbed their green smoothie to balance it out, worked really well together.

Good ceviche and pisco sours. Portions were solid. Staff took time to walk us through the menu in Spanish. No complaints for the price.

Seated right away on a busy Saturday, that never happens. Staff kept checking on us, food was solid. Music was fun but not too loud. Good spot in the neighborhood.

The nachos here are seriously loaded&mdash;cheese, jalape&ntilde;os, all the good stuff. Portion was big enough that I actually took some home. Prices felt fair for what you get. It&#39;s a solid local spot, nothing fancy, but the seating was comfortable and I didn&#39;t feel rushed. Would stop by again if I&#39;m in the area.

Ordered kosher meat and wine for delivery to Quepos. Owner kept in touch the whole time, no issues. Meat was good quality, exactly what we needed for the trip. Took a bit to arrange but worth it. Would use them again if we&#39;re back in the area.

Food was good, drinks too. But man, the bill hurt. Prices are high and then they hit you with their own exchange rate on top. Felt like we paid way more than the meal was worth. Maybe I&#39;d come back if I&#39;m not the one paying. 😅

The pulled pork and brisket were properly smoked, super juicy. Honestly the kind of BBQ I&rsquo;d crave on a random Tuesday. They even have a kids menu which is nice if you&rsquo;re with a group. Service was friendly and quick, didn&rsquo;t feel rushed at all. Good spot to just hang out and eat with friends 😊

The chifrijo hit the spot. Crispy pork, rice, beans, and those tortilla chips all together&mdash;solid flavor. Good intro to Costa Rican food if you haven&#39;t tried it. Place was a bit busy but I didn&#39;t really care. Just focused on the bowl.

The casado here is solid and the price feels right for what you get. Traditional flavors, no fuss. Just wish they had a bit more seating, it got crowded fast.

The Italian sandwich was solid and came out fast. Cappuccino was just okay but whatever. Good spot for a quick bite.

The red enchiladas weren&#39;t what I pictured but they still hit the spot. Portions are generous for sure. Just be ready to wait a bit for your food. 🌮

Stopped by for a beer and pizza with friends last week. The milk stout was seriously good, probably my favorite dark beer in San Jose right now. Pizza held up its end too. Only thing is the street noise gets kinda loud when it&#39;s busy, but we still hung out for a while. Nice spot if you&#39;re not looking for somewhere super quiet. 🍕

Good beer selection, always changing taps. Bartender knew his stuff. Prices fair for what you get. Music was decent too.

Stopped by for coffee and a slice of cake. The place has a nice, relaxed vibe. Coffee was solid, cake was decent too. Staff were friendly enough, didn&rsquo;t have to wait long. Prices are fair for what you get. Fine if you&rsquo;re in the area and need a quiet break.

The Peruvian seafood platter was solid&mdash;octopus cooked right, fish had good flavor. Roasted potatoes on the side were a nice bonus. Portion felt fair for what we paid, though I&rsquo;ve had bigger ones elsewhere.
