At Sikwa, we believe that food is the universal language that communicates our history, culture, and traditions. Inspired by the richness of Costa Rica, we offer a culinary experience that connects the past and present. We work with local communities and collaborators such as Proyecto Jirondai and Koswak Usure to keep traditions alive and promote sustainable practices. Every dish at Sikwa tells a story of respect for the land and love for culture, using local and seasonal ingredients. More than a restaurant, Sikwa is an act of cultural preservation and a commitment to education and community development.

    Food and cocktails were good. Really enjoyed the honey squash dessert was amazing. Staff were incredible. It’s a small place and was full, so plenty of atmosphere.

    We took the food testing and it was outstanding and the service very good. The place was too noisy and it was difficult to listen to the explanations of the different dishes. We were arriving from Tabacon, and tried several times to phone to inform that we would arrive earlier than the scheduled time and it was impossible; we were doubting if the place was open.

    La comida está muy buena, a veces demasiado escaso el plato. El pulpo pasó de ser una pata entera a trocitos de pata. Los meseros explican muy bien pero es descarado cómo te cuelan la botella de Acqua Panna y San Pellegrino al comenzar (te ofrecen agua como si fuese de la llave y te ponen esas dos botellas que valen 7 dolares cada una). El ambiente tiene una acústica bastante mala y los sofás están sucios de comida y de excrementos de pájaros. En un restaurante de esa categoría al menos deberían lavar los cojines donde se sienta el cliente. En definitiva, buena comida, innovadora y bien presentada, con unos precios desorbitados y bastante descuido del espacio.

    Sluggish service, the dinning room is way too loudnto have a conversation, sound dampening should be considered. Preparations are good but not amazing.

    La comida normal, no tenía sabores extraordinarios, más bien era bastante simple por el precio y la experiencia que prometen. Lo que estuvo mal en general fue el servicio, no tenían host entonces uno tenía que quedarse en la entrada del salón a esperar a que uno de los 3 meseros lo atendiera y vi que también le pasó a varios visitantes, que tenían que esperar un rato medio incómodo en el medio del salón a ver si alguien lo atendía, las bebidas duraban mucho en llegar y no tenían algunos platos del menú. El lugar en general se ve algo descuidado y siento que el precio de los platos y lo que promete no concuerda con la experiencia real que uno se lleva.
