Café de Artistas
506-228-6045
Good honest breakfast & lunch in a casual 'artist' atmosphere with light jazz in the background. Open Mon-Fri 8:00am - 6:30pm.
Directions: 100m south of Rolex Plaza in Escazú. Rolex Plaza is a couple blocks West of Tony Roma's.
La Guagua
506-228-5112
Plaza Itskatzú, Costa RicaLa Guagua sports an interesting Cuban menu, though inconsistant in quality. Sometimes very good though. If you order a mixed drink, be sure to ask that the liquor comes on the side. Bring credit cards or small bills to pay as they're unable to cash larger ones.
Taj Mahal
Comida Exotica de la Inda
506-228-0980On the expensive side and nice Indian atmosphere, however the food was mediocre and many traditional Indian dishes such as Sag Paneer and Navratan Korma were missing from the menu.
Directions: 1km west of Centro Comercial Paco en Escazú Calle Vieja a Santa Ana
TGI Friday's
A couple doors down from Tony Romas on the main drag into Escazú. Nice atmosphere, mediocre food, watered down drinks, poor service.
Tony Romas
On the main drag into Escazú, Tony Roma's serves passable food in a nice atmosphere. If you'll be ordering a drink, I suggest you ask for the alcohol on the side, as they're a bit weak otherwise ... and if you're taking a tour bus somewhere, don't ask them to pick you up here. A guard will shoo you away from standing out front.
Tre Fratelli
Multicentro Paco
Escazú San JoseItalian. Good food, good service, reasonable prices. One of the best choices for a casual dinner with drinks.
