Costa Rica Restaurants: Central Valley: La Casona del Cafetal

La Casona del Cafetal restaurant offers an elegant Lakeview dining area.

Orosi Valley Restaurant

Costa Rica's Orosi Valley's best lunch stop is on a coffee plantation overlooking the Cachi Reservoir. Restaurant la Casona del Cafetal is located long the main road surrounding the valley. The spacious brick building has a high barrel-tile roof, with tables indoors and on a tiled portico on the lake side.

Sunday buffet

Casados and other Costa Rican staples accompany inventive dishes such as arroz tucurrique (baked rice with cheese and heart of palm) and corvina guarumos (bass stuffed with mushrooms). The menu includes crepes and fresh trout, chicken and beef dishes. There's an All You Can Eat Buffet on Sundays.

After lunch, take a stroll down to the lake and take in the views. The small gift shop sells Costa Rica coffee, hand crafted Costa Rica Jewelry & sculptures and souvenirs.

San Jose Guide:

San Jose, the Capital of Costa Rica, is the hub of all transportation in Costa Rica. For that reason, it is usually the first place you will visit while in Costa Rica. It lies between three Costa Rica volcanoes. There is a large variety of Costa Rica hotels, parks, restaurants and attractions for visitors. The first thing noticed about San Jose is the local friendliness. The city is set up on a pretty logical grid system. When on foot and touring the capital, Costa Ricans, also known as Ticos, are always willing to lend a hand with directions. Always remember though, locals use landmarks not street names for directions, and if you just can't figure out where you are, find a local church. Every church in Costa Rica faces west. While in the Capital, you have access to the best public transportation in all of Central America.
