CostaRican Cravings — Restaurant in New Providence

I’ve driven by this place a few times and am so glad I stopped by- the food and service was amazing! The woman behind the counter (I’m not sure if she is the owner?) was so friendly and patient in explaining what foods they offered and she even let me try a few samples. I ended up getting their beef picadillo, a tamale, chips and ceviche and everything was outstanding! The tamale was excellent with a little Lizano on it! The woman mentioned I should try the ceviche with a little ketchup and mayo in it, and although I was very apprehensive, I gave it a try and it was unbelievably good- such a nice surprise!! Although I didn’t get it, they had ossobuco available and that looked and smelled amazing too; I’ll definitely come back...

I got a bowl with rice, black beans, and three meat dishes. They charge per pound so you can customize. Everything I had I enjoyed and made me crave more. This would be a good spot for lunch since you can grab and go and it’s quick. There isn’t much space for large groups but they have outdoor seating.
