I went there yesterday after reading all the glowing reviews of this place. I ordered the vegetarian special of the day "chili vegetariana con arroz" and a super smoothie. The smoothie was awful it has too much ginger in it and is almost spicey. I waited for an hour and a half for the meal which never came. So I... More

My partner and I went to El Jardin del Parque for some takeout for dinner. I wished we had gone hungry, because the atmosphere, an enclosed patio across from a park, was lovely. We got a veggie burger and a panini and smoothies, and everything was well presented and absolutely delicious. The woman who took our order was lovely as... More

Wonderfully satisfying veggie meals, smoothies, and deserts prepared form sustainable agriculture practices. Cozy covered patio across the street from Parque Nacional with awesome daily specials. If you're not into meat, this is the place to go in San Jose.

We live in Costa Rica and our trips to San Jose are more enjoyable now that we know of Jardin del Parque! Their food is excellent, top quality and very tasty. They actually know what they are doing, using the best organic ingredients and spices. They support sustainable and responsible agriculture. In a city where fast food is everywhere, this... More

my husband and I visited this restaurant for lunch today and wlked out satiated in body and spirit. The food was wonderful (he had the Plato del Dia I had Pizza del Dia), the refrescos inventive and the decor simple and sustainable. In addition to the above pluses, the staff obviously love what they do and it comes across in... More

Jardin del Parque is delicious! All of the ingredients are fresh, local, and the staff clearly takes pride in the preparation. I had an incredible kale salad and banana chocolate chip muffin with fresh raspberry jam on the side. The meal of the day (which includes coffee and dessert) is so worth it. The atmosphere is relaxing and the staff... More

I hate to be critical but we read about this restuarant on trip advisor and we thought it was going to be reallly good from the reviews. Big disappointment. Yes - it translates, Garden in the Park, but it was across the street from a beautiful park but the street was loud and all we smelled was pollution. We are... More

My wife and I finally visited Jardin del Parque. "Terrific" is our one description. THe food was great as well as the atmosphere and service staff. Being in front of the Parque Nacional adds a nice touch. They seem to try harder than most resaturants to be organic.. Will be back many times!

The wife and i decided to go try Jardin del Parque. Its a little out of the way but have only heard good things. So let me start off by saying that our experience was as close to perfect as you can get. The restaurant is in down town but in the nicest place possible for the area. Right in... More
