Soda Interamericana

Soda Interamericana is known as a neighbourhood spot for Costa Rican cooking, the kind built around fresh fruit, plantain and Salsa Lizano. Costa Rica was part of the Spanish empire until independence in 1821, and coffee shaped its economy from the nineteenth century, a history that runs through the food served here.

Soda Interamericana is a local eatery serving Costa Rican food. Costa Rican cooking leans on fresh fruit, plantain and Salsa Lizano, and coffee from the Central Valley is a major export, so a meal here fits squarely into that tradition.

First-timers can expect a casual local eatery where Costa Rican cooking is the focus, with fresh fruit, plantain and Salsa Lizano featuring in the food. Spanish is the official language, and Costa Rican Spanish is known for its use of vos and the phrase pura vida, so a little of that will be heard around the tables.

Soda Interamericana sits at Macho Mora, Kilometro 104 Carretera interamericana sur, San José, Costa Rica. That address places it in San José province, within a country where Spanish is the official language and the phrase pura vida colours everyday speech.

Soda Interamericana holds a 5/5 rating from 14 reviews, with the address at Macho Mora, Kilometro 104 Carretera interamericana sur, San José. The Pacific coast has a marked dry season while the Caribbean coast stays wet for much of the year, so the setting in San José province sits apart from either coastal pattern.
