Central America Costa Rica Liberia, Costa Rica Dining Los Comales

Overview

Los Comales

The guide was updated: 2025-05-25

Los Comales is one of the best sodas (local budget-friendly lunch restaurants) in town! You'll get traditional Costa Rican fare: the most tender and juicy pechuga (chicken breast) with a side of beans, two salads, rice, and tortilla. This is the best place in town to try Gallo Pinto for breakfast. If you're especially hungry that day, order a side of maduros con queso frito (pan-fried plantains with fried cheese).

Restaurante Jauja

Jauja serves authentic Costa Rican cuisine along with dishes from all over the world, all making for an extensive menu that calls for more than just a single visit. Come hungry, as the generous portions can easily feed two. Live music played some nights.

El Patio

El Patio

El Patio is a great open-air restaurant way off the beaten path. Most guests order set menus, like the menu ejecutivo — with falafel, grilled veggies and fried yuca. Grab a table outdoors on the lush terrace and say hi to Roberto, the resident cat. Among other things, El Patio offers good WiFi and is popular for its high-protein vegan and vegetarian dishes.

El Callejero

El Callejero

El Callejero is an unpretentious eatery that is run from a food truck, but with plenty of covered outdoor tables. The theme of the menu is roughly Texan barbecue, but you can also enjoy some Mexican salads and poke bowls, plus local beers.

Sabor Porteño

Sabor Porteño

Sabor Porteño is a famed seafood restaurant: delicious food, pleasant atmosphere and excellent service! Your biggest difficulty will be choosing among the dozens of great-looking plates. The ceviche porteño comes highly recommended, as does the shrimp and avocado salad, paired with mango juice.

Tierra Mar Liberia

Tierra Mar Liberia

The Tierra Mar in Liberia specialises in Peruvian ceviche and all manner of seafood dishes. You'll find comfortable decor, a broad and creative selection of menu choices, generous portions, and first-rate quality in taste and presentation.
