    It was really disappointing. The vibe was okay but food absolutely terrible and the service was sluggish at best. Drinks were okay and probably the highlight of an otherwise disappointing experience.

    A mix between Alice in Wonderland and Harry Potter with fabulously creative and delicious food! Costa Rican products used in exceptional ways and a refreshing sense of humor and wonder! Even for conservative old Europeans, a terrific experience.

    Estuvo bien, mi comida llegó un poco fría, y el servicio un poco lento, pero todo lo demás muy bien. Buen lugar para cenar diferente.

    If you are visiting the area, the building is a challenge to find as it is not labeled La Yetbatera on the outside. (Because of the speakeasy element.) Just plug it into your maps app and when the dot says you are there, walk in to the only building at that intersection which looks to be a restaurant. There are images about tarot readings and tables viewable from the outside, just walk inside and ask.

    Cocina latinoamericana, en un nivel muy alto por su apego a ingredientes y técnicas tradicionales, pero en un ambiente diferente y una gran presentación

    Hermoso lugar, lleno de sorpresa, que no solo es un experiencia de cena, pero de sentidos en un ambiente super pensado en cada detalle. El lugar es "misterioso" y la comida estuvo buenísima, lo platos fuertes tienen buenas porciones, recomiendo el Osobuco y Pescado. El coctel de agua de sapo me sorprendió, esta diferente y bueno, podría tener un poco mas de cacique ya que las infusiones son muy fuertes y se pierde un poco, pero overall muy rico en sabor y buen tamaño.

    Increíble lugar, único en San José y puede que de Costa Rica, todo es maravilloso. La comida es una explosión de sabores, las bebidas son totalmente diferentes y la decoración del lugar va más allá de perfecta. Todo es una gran experiencia, pero felicidades al equipo de cocina porque los platos son incomparables!!
