Very disappointing - Edit
I was so excited to try this place, not sure if we got unlucky but the food was not good. Got the no fish tacos and oyster mushroom burger. The fried mushrooms in both were really overdone, they tasted burnt and there was zero mushroom flavour. Expected much higher standard for the price. The only saving grace was the yuca fries.

Delicious vegan food can also be junk food - Edit
Big portions of tasty food. A must for ethical (not dieting) vegans
Read moreThe oysters pops are phenomenal, and the burgers are juicy and big. Try the yuca as a side for a local flair.
Pros: Oyster pops!!!

Great place, amazing burger - Edit
Had the most amazing burger here. The Oyster Chipotle burger was recommended by the server and was delicious. None of this fake vegan meat stuff, just layers of amazing breaded oyster mushrooms. The orea shake was also great. Wish I had more time in San José to try out their other options.

Expensive but good burgers - Edit
I had the pineapple express which had beyond, a thick pineapple slice and vegan deli slices. Good fries and vegan mayo. My parter had the oyster mushroom burger which I don't think was as good but very tasty.

Amazing food - Edit
I can't fault a single thing from Huacamole, I got the classic hotdog and my partner got the Choripan hotdog and they were both really well made and a great blend of flavours. The next day we got the crispy wrap with Mac n cheese and they were so good and so much food I had half for lunch and the rest for dinner. The cinnamon rolls are delicious too. Wouldn't miss this spot if you're in San José

Great burgers, a little pricey - Edit
We both had the 'chicken' burger. It was pretty good although a little disappointed by the cheese - stingy and a bit tasteless. The wedges and dip were nice. Overall a decent meal and I know its a nicer area but felt it didn't really justify the price tag.
Read moreWe arrived in time for opening as the business had informed us and yet when we arrived we were told that they didn't open until 12.30, not really sure what happened there! They let us browse the menu inside anyway. Not too much of a problem - just something to be aware of if in a rush.

Excellent Vegan Spit - Edit
Being a visitor to San Jose, finding this place was amazing. It's tucked away but well worth a visit! The Panko style Oyster Mushrooms were amazing. If you're vegan and not eating here you're missing out, if you're not vegan then you're still missing out it's that good. The staff were so lovely too, I was so tired and they really made me feel welcome.
Read morePros: Good sized menu with lots of choice , Vegan desserts!!, Excellent staff and decor too

Generous portions, nice and crispy - Edit
My spouse and I both had the oyster mushroom based fish tacos and they were delicious. They were nice and crispy without being greasy. The server was super accommodating and was able to sub onion rings which were also delicious. In hindsight, we would’ve gotten 2 different dishes or shared - it was a lot of food. Definitely recommend and want to try other items next time. We also both had the Moscow Mules which were perfectly not too sweet.

Comfort food - Edit
This is one of, if not the only, vegan place in San Jose where you can find vegan comfort food like mac and cheese. I would recommend if you’re feeling like a treat; it is definitely not the healthiest vegan food you’ll find!

Delicious! - Edit
I had the soup of the day and my husband had the fried plantains with an assortment of dips for an appetizer. They were both delicious, but small portions, so good for an appetizer for one person. For example my tasty pumpkin soup was about a 1/2 cup for $5 US. We shared a Garlic Tomato pizza for our main, which was phenomenal and filling. I didn’t bring my phone or I would’ve taken photos.

Horrible delivery experience, at restaurant good/ok - Edit
We tried to order a bunch of things to our hotel. It was a HUGE hassle … they offer the service through their website but you cannot pay in cash upon delivery (suddenly).
Read moreYou need WhatsApp to confirm your order ?!?
And when we asked about PayPal they added over 8 USD fee and claimed 10% of the order would go to PP. Well, our order was about 56 USD and 10% of that is definitely less.
Then we were asked to go through Uber eats. There were no drivers.
Would have loved to try their food but this didn’t come out good at all.
Edit one day later:
We actually went today. We had quite high expectations from some reviews etc. We give them one more star.
The portions were really sizable and for Costa Rica good value for money.
The best was the caramel cookie drink with whipped cream and tapioca pearls. Although I saw the extremely long ingredient list of the whipped cream ... The patacones and yucca sticks were also good, could have used some more salt.
I did not enjoy the chicken burger as I thought it had a fishy taste and not the vegan Mac and cheese, which were way too salty and did not taste cheesy in my point of view.
We couldn't finish all of it and had to take the pizza with us in a container.
Overall good money - value ratio for Costa Rica, but we would explores other restaurant options before coming back first. Maybe for the ice chocolate drink.
