We recently visited Tucanes and absolutely loved it. I went with my wife and her sister, and we all…read moreenjoyed a delicious, authentic Costa Rican meal. The highlight for us was the gallo pinto -- perfectly seasoned, comforting, and true to the flavors you'd expect back home. It tasted just like something you'd enjoy in a Costa Rican kitchen on a Sunday morning. The service was warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere made us feel immediately comfortable. Portions were generous, everything was freshly prepared, and the presentation showed real care. It's rare to find a place that captures the genuine spirit of Costa Rican cuisine, but Tucanes truly delivers. This is the kind of restaurant you want to return to again and again. Highly recommended -- a real 5-star experience.

The lady at the counter was very patient with me, as she did not speak much English. She was very nice and helpful. This is Peruvian cuisine so I ordered Leche de Tigre Mixtos, and the Grilled Anticochoes. The ceviche is a mix of fish and seafood in a super bright, limey juice. It was fantastic! The grilled beef heart was absolutely perfect! Tender with some nice char from the grill, the meat was outstanding! Both dishes were large portions, so you will get your money's worth.

I went with the carnitas taco and the pernil empanada. I was supposed to share the taco with my wife but I ended up eating the whole thing. Delicious. The empanada was also good. The crust was flaky and held together well. The filling was flavorful with the pernil cooked just right. Sometimes pernil can get dry because it is cooked for a long time and it is a science to make it right. They had a bunch of people working in the truck so it looks like they are always busy. I would definitely check it out if you see it. Prices are reasonable and they do a solid job of making it authentic.
