Delicious vegan comfort food - Edit
I loved this vegan restaurant and left with a full stomach! The burger and taco were both so tasty. The milkshake was divine! Lovely staff too.

Bom, mas não espectacular… - Edit
Menú totalmente vegan. Porções generosas. Adorámos a entrada (cogumelos pleurotus panados fritos). Os pratos estavam ok. A sobremesa era saborosa. Serviço simpático.

Great vegan food - Edit
A bit of a walk out of the Center of the city but the food is worth it.
Read moreWe went for the no fish tacos and the premium tacos. These were both very generous portion size and and very tasty. They were quite messy so make use of the napkins. We also had a peanut butter milkshake and a coconut smoothie which were fresh and tasty.
We also took some cakes to go as we wanted to try them later. They were really tasty too. Well worth it.

Pink panther! - Edit
Had the Pink panther burger and sweet potatoes plus the falafel wrap and salad. Both delicious and filling. The juice of the day (included in the price of the burger) was mango. Love the place and food.

Amazing vegan place - Edit
We loved our food at Huacamole, it tasted incredible. They have so many different menu choices with most of them having a soy based meat alternative as the base.
Read moreWe had the supreme tacos and the birria burger. It was so good we ordered the Mac and cheese to take away for dinner after at our hotel.
Everything was incredible and we wish there was time to go back for more! They also have a large freezer section to buy meat alternatives and a bakery shelf as well.
Highly recommend and the staff were very friendly as well.
Pros: Lots of choice - fully vegan, Lots of protein, Reasonably priced

Cool place - Edit
Nice vibe with colourful little nooks to eat in and friendly staff. The menu was huuuge so it was hard to decide! My partner and I tried two different burgers. He loved his “Vegconator” and I went for the BBQ oyster mushroom burger. The oyster mushroom wasn’t as crispy as it could be and ended up a little soggy and greasy, and the fries were tasty but came out cold. Overall pretty enjoyable though!

A cafe in the trendy and vibrant Barrio Escalante - Edit
First meal in San Jose, Costa Rica, and that wasn’t the only reason why this place was memorable. Huacamole is a little cafe in the trendy and vibrant Barrio Escalante, a neighborhood known for its food scene and lively nightlife. Serves traditional fare such as empanadas and casados to burgers and pizzas. One thing for sure, quality and good vibes remain consistent.

Love this cute little cafe - Edit
A local vegan treasure with so many great options. The vibe is cool and the clientele are all locals. Service is a bit slow, though friendly waiter, but other than that a huge variety of food on the menu including cakes and frozen/chilled foods to go. A great vegan find. I had the chipotle oyster burger with salad which was a Cole slaw and a very large cappuccino with my pistachio cashew cheesecake.. yummy all around

My favorite restaurant in San José! - Edit
I love the Casado Vegano - it's the perfect meal. If you're feeling more indulgent, I'd recommend the Crunchy Wrap or the Nachos. Both are incredible! Here's a pic of my nachos. (I took a little bite before taking the pic. I couldn't help myself!) There are TONS of toppings, and the chips are crispy and fresh. I usually order to-go, and everything has always been well packaged in eco-friendly containers. Oh, and the Mac & Cheese is great, too! Definitely give this place a try!
