No tomaron en cuenta nuestra reserva, nos ubicaron en la barra por al rededor de 45 minutos sin ningún tipo de atención mientras la gente llegaba y le asignaban una mesa. Las personas que trabajan ahí no son muy dedicadas al servicio. La comida regular, algunos platos son muy pobres para el valor que tienen.

Great food, clearly inspired by simpler, everyday fare and taken to a superior level. Ambiance is a high point: the vintage surroundings of an old city home are both warm and intriguing. Service is top notch and also a high point. Highly recommended!

Buchón es ese rincón escondido en San José donde las conversaciones fluye, las bocas sorprenden y el ambiente te abraza. Un lugar sin rótulo, pero con mucha alma. Ideal para quienes buscan sabores auténticos en un entorno íntimo y sofisticado.

Super lindo el concepto y el ambiente, los platos son estilo “bocas” por lo cual el tamaño no es tan grande pero lo recomiendo super, 1-2 platos se pide uno y muy rico el sabor de los platillos y los cocteles también

La comida espectacular, los cócteles deliciosos y con la cantidad de alcohol perfecta. Lo único que mejoraría es 1. Un rotulito afuera, fui con adultos mayores y encontrar el lugar para ellos fue complicado. 2. Creo q necesitan al menos 1 persona más atendiendo, los tiempos de espera no es que sean demasiado extensos, pero si duran un poquitín más del “promedio” en traer tragos, comida, etc. Pero en general el servicio es estupendo, excelente atención, trato, explicación de los platillos, menú, etc.
