La Yerbatera

Restaurante clandestino en el corazón de San José.
Gastronomía y coctelería de autor.
Una experiencia gastronómica te dejarás seducir por las plantas e ingredientes tradicionales de nuestra tierra latinoamericana.

En la Yerbatera utilizamos prácticas ancestrales gastronómicas. Todas nuestras recetas son preparadas en el momento con productos orgánicos y cosechas del día. En nuestro menú encontrarás opciones veganas y vegetarianas.

La Yerbatera es recobrar las prácticas ancestrales y de nuestras abuelas que conocían la naturaleza y sus propiedades curativas. Es un viaje en el tiempo al momento en que las yerbateras nos curaban con sus deliciosas recetas medicinales.

    If you are visiting the area, the building is a challenge to find as it is not labeled La Yetbatera on the outside. (Because of the speakeasy element.) Just plug it into your maps app and when the dot says you are there, walk in to the only building at that intersection which looks to be a restaurant. There are images about tarot readings and tables viewable from the outside, just walk inside and ask.

    Cocina latinoamericana, en un nivel muy alto por su apego a ingredientes y técnicas tradicionales, pero en un ambiente diferente y una gran presentación

    Hermoso lugar, lleno de sorpresa, que no solo es un experiencia de cena, pero de sentidos en un ambiente super pensado en cada detalle. El lugar es "misterioso" y la comida estuvo buenísima, lo platos fuertes tienen buenas porciones, recomiendo el Osobuco y Pescado. El coctel de agua de sapo me sorprendió, esta diferente y bueno, podría tener un poco mas de cacique ya que las infusiones son muy fuertes y se pierde un poco, pero overall muy rico en sabor y buen tamaño.

    Increíble lugar, único en San José y puede que de Costa Rica, todo es maravilloso. La comida es una explosión de sabores, las bebidas son totalmente diferentes y la decoración del lugar va más allá de perfecta. Todo es una gran experiencia, pero felicidades al equipo de cocina porque los platos son incomparables!!

    This is an excellent and novel dining experience to be tried once. I think that subsequent visits are bound to disappoint as the novelty will no longer be there. The cocktails and food are creative but some of the dished, for example, the slow roasted pork ribs, could have been better executed. Also the tuna main course would have been improved by a higher grade of tuna, but as we live by the ocean perhaps our standards are impossibly high.
