"Kalú is the brainchild of Costa Rican-French chef Camille Ratton, who sought to create a sacred space for diners to encounter new tastes. Backed by a capable kitchen crew, Ratton turns out colorful, tasty dishes based on Mediterranean, Asian, and Creole flavors. Try the Spanish omelet with coffee-smoked salmon, or soba noodles and roasted vegetables topped with spinach-pistachio-encrusted fish. Kalú also operates two retail operations on-site: Kiosko, a gift store, and Cafeoteca, which roasts, packs, and sells coffee from Costa Rica’s every province. By Travesías"
Incredible! Probably our favorite cafe in the world. 10/10 stars. Go here!
Everything here from roasted coffees, to pastries and entrees is perfection.
We tasted 6 coffees, 4 pastries and 4 meals and every single thing was amazing.
We always come here on our visits even if it's out of our way.

This place is awesome!. Their food is really good and def loved their hot chocolate “I don’t drink coffee lol”. Came here twice for breakfast and it did not disappoint. Service wasn’t the best, but that’s just Costa Rican thing, which is okay. I guess

Wow! Wow! Wow!
If you you are looking to try coffee from all over around Costa Rica: this is your place, they have more thank 20 coffee bean types to brew in many different methods, they really know about coffee!
I have to say that I am very demanding when we talk about coffee and this place go above my expectations. I couldn't be more happy of have found this place in San Jose.

Nice vibe coffee place. I got some local Tres Rios coffee in the Chemex. The coffee was great and the food was good too.
