The 21 Best Restaurants in San José, Costa Rica | Eater

"Under the leadership of head chef Marco Leiva, this is San José’s take on the global steakhouse, with fine cuts of chateaubriand, Brazilian picanha, falda (flank steak) served with sticky rice and bok choy, and porterhouse. Local Costa Rican products are central to dishes like the green papaya salad, octopus with cassava “charcoal,” and a saute of jumbo shrimp and poppies from the garden. Choose from a variety of sides, such as grilled asparagus, blackened yucca, and sweet potato puree, to accompany your steak, all paired with wines from the Americas." - Bill Esparza
