An enchanting restaurant in the very hearth of San Jose, with authentic Italian cuisine and spotless service. Everything is hand made. Try the Festa della Pasta, for a fix price you can try 5 different handmade pastas. Enjoy our brick oven long fermentati

Service was very spotty. Waiter uninspired and not at all helpful to the two gluten free diners at our table. The ravioli and the pizza I shared with my friend weâre ok (ravioli lacked flavor) but the greatest disappointment was that both dishes were barely warm. The pizza had sat for so long that it was soggy. Prices seem high for the quality, presentation and service.

Lo Spago was a good authentic Italian Restaurant and since that is my favourite it was no surprise I would be a little more critical of the food, the wine and the desserts. We were greeted by friendly staff, sat immediately and able to order some good Chianti. The pasta choice were plentiful and the wait staff were more than willing to explain whatever you needed them to. We got our meals and were feeling pretty good about our choices when I saw something that made me so jealous. The people at the next table had order pasta in a cheese cream sauce. No big deal right? Wrong, the staff had brought over a side table upon which sat a full round of Parmigiano cheese, and in one hand he held a torch. He was mixing something up (I assume some cream), and scraping cheese off as he melted it from the middle of what can only be called a giant cheese bowl. Yes, I said it, he was mixing the sauce up right in the Parmigiano cheese itself. Then he tosses in the pasta and mixes it around as well. He swirls and mixes and then finally pulls it out and plates it. My mouth is watering just thinking of it, still do not know what it was called but I want to try it. Okay, so for dessert, they did not have my favourite Bachio Negro, but they did have Tartufo which was almost as good and excellent as far as desserts go. I would highly recommend this restaurant for the Italian food, the atmosphere and the desserts.

This is our favorite place to eat when visiting our friends in Atenas. Everything is good and with an extensive menu of mouthwatering choices, it never gets old. We find ourselves jumping in the car to go every couple days. Getting ready to go again for dinner and just remembered to write this review. :)

After five days of rain I felt somehow frustrated, all travel equipment was moist. I was so happy to find this restaurant with excellent food. I had pasta arrabiata and a pizza. After the authentic italian food I felt so much better. I also liked the lemonade with mint, the good wifi connection and the super friendly service. A great place to enjoy!Realmente nos llena de orgullo leer este comentario y nos satisface muchÃsimo saber que lo disfrutaran. Gracias de corazón. Los esperamos pronto

Great pizza, cracker thin crust, so good. Delicious homemade ice cream. Great for adults, and most importantly, rave reviews from the kids. Truly a hidden gem. When you go, be sure to ask for Moses. Hell take great care of you, and if youâre interested heâll even take you fishing in Arenal. The highlight of our visit was after we finished our meal. We were walking around the grounds, admiring the coffee and cacao trees, when we came upon the grounds keeper and local horticulture specialist Juan. He gave us a personal tour of the fields he himself manicured. Basil and oregano bushes, banana trees, pineapple plants, guava trees, lemon plants, and many, many more gorgeous and fragrant fauna. It was a special and unexpected moment. The food, the ice cream, and the passion for all things Tico. Perfect.

My husband and I had caprese for an appetizer and the Mediterranean Supreme pizza for dinner. We asked to hold the mushrooms and sub jalapenos on our pizza and our server Alexander made sure our pizza was perfect. His service was outstanding, with an exhilarating desert presentation of our banana flambe for dessert. The pizza crust was thin, the olive oil on the table was delicious, the house bread rolls incredibly delicate and lemoncello served in chilled glasses really topped it off. Mucho gusto!

Went with some friends and got the Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath pizzas. Pink Floyd was really good. The pizza is super thin crust and has lots of good cheese, different from the typical Costa Rican pizza. It was a little on the expensive side, but not outrageous. I also had wanted to try their house brew, but they were out.

It is hard to believe that this kind of average looking restaurant in a big shopping mall next to a Chilis is the top rated restaurant in Heridia. The food is OK, service is OK, the beer selection is good and the parking options are excellent. Still I was disappointed after walking across town based on reviews to find something that would fit right into a suburban strip mall in middle america
