Soda Shangri-La

This small, unpretentious Costa Rican restaurant serves authentic dishes like vegan casado, featuring rice, beans, vegetables, and plantains, which reviewers describe as filling and affordable. The owner is friendly and open to ingredient questions, though communication may require Spanish or a translation app due to limited English. The setting is modest and informal, with a tiny kitchen and background TV noise, offering a budget-friendly alternative to pricier local spots.
