    This was an exceptional dining experience at a “nice restaurant” cost. The level of detail and care in every single menu item is incredible. The service was at times on “costa rica time” but a great excuse to savor Greta food and creative cocktails. Server knowledge was amazing for all menu items and specific ingredients or preparation, you felt the excitement as dishes were explained or menu tour was offered. Really, really, really amazing start to finish. Dessert was mind blowing to cap things off.

    Sikwa is a remarkable experience. The food is unlike anything we’ve tasted before. The service is impeccable without being pretentious. If only the precolumbian diet included bread so we could sop up the delicious sauces.

    A Culinary Gem in San José: Sikwa Nestled in the heart of San José, Sikwa is a true standout in Costa Rica's culinary scene. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere, reflecting the genuine hospitality of the staff. The ambiance is relaxed yet romantic, making it perfect for a special occasion or a memorable night out. But it's the food that truly steals the show. The menu is a testament to the chef's creativity, showcasing innovative dishes that artfully blend local ingredients with global influences. Each plate is a masterpiece, not only in presentation but also in the explosion of flavors that dance across your palate. I had the pleasure of trying the Pejibaye ravioli, a true culinary gem. The pasta, made in-house to perfection, encased a flavorful filling and a sauce that enhanced every ingredient. Whether you're a seasoned foodie or simply seeking an unforgettable dining experience, Sikwa is an absolute must-visit. Prepare to be delighted by the culinary artistry, the impeccable service, and the overall magical ambiance.
