ESQUINA ARGENTINA - Vicki's FAVORITE "SODA" Restaurant in Costa Rica (Escazu & now also in Guachipelin)


ESQUINA ARGENTINA Restaurant
(Escazu Centro  -  2-288-2811  •  Guiche)

A MEGA VIC’S PICK’S!!!
This is LITERALLY my #1 FAV “Soda” (a "soda" in Costa Rica is a little cheapo restaurant)!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE!! MEGA CHEAP & AWESOME!! FLAME GRILLED CASADAS (rice & beans or fresh mashed potatos and veges) - GRILLED beef, chicken, ribs, pork, fish (& sometimes tongue) & LOTS of DELISH CHIMICHURI SAUCE (parsley, olive oil, lemon, a tiny bit of vinegar, salt and LOTS of garlic!!) WITH a REALLY tasty salad PLUS a natural fresh fruit drink for 3,000-3,500-colones (around $6-$7).



MY fav is Costadas (ribs), mashed potatoes, veges, MUCHO MUCHO chimichuri sauce (ChimiChuri sauce is parsley, LOTS of garlic and olive oil traditionally) on EVERYTHING and Cass drink!!!!

CHEAP BREAKFASTS!

Dr. Gene McDonald always RAVED about their Lasagna on Wednesday. A nice size piece for around 1,750-c.
