My pick for a quick and inexpensive meal. Popular for lunch with local Costa Rican flavors, this place serves hundreds of people per day, so the buffet is always fresh. Choose from rice, beans, meats, salads, etc. Just point out what you like through the window, then pay at register and grab a table. Soon you'll be enjoying a variety of flavors with a delicious cold juice drink included. Great breakfast too!
