That's what the waiters told me the other day (Friday I think) when I went for lunch, that they were closing the next day.

I had my tica called their number last Monday and according to the recording, they have another location opened. So CRTers presently in SJO may still have the chance to try. Whether it is run by the same chef serving the same menu, I don't know.

Thanks for the update DZ, keep us posted. I always thought that was a peculiar location. By that I mean, I would think they would thrive in a more affluent area, Escazu or even on the east side where there appears to be a flourishing restaurant scene with a nice mix of young professionals and well educated /traveled Ticos
