Las Lenitas Mexican - San Jose

Have eaten here probably 8 times the past 3 months or so. I hate to say it… I hate it more each time I go. The chicken, fries and quesadillas (its not called a quesadilla on the menu) are great. Its just literally everything else is not very good. Mexican restaurant should not be in the name… this is a very distant cousin of anything Mexican, guaranteed. Service can be a little on the slow side. Also, I recommend paying cash… you will get a poor conversion rate if you run your card (and my card has no travel fees), so it’s definitely on their end That said, some of the menu is good and its a decent place to eat if you’re not in a hurry.

I ordered a simple quarter chicken and tortillas but they were some of the best I've had. Also a great place to try horchata, a cinnamon rice milk drink. Prices are on the high side compared to some nearby places but still not expensive. Expect to spend 3-5 mil colones.

Nice try in Mexican food. Pastor meat is the fail, is not fresh and it’s fryied. Everything else taste good.

The food here is good. Lomito salteado is one of the best dishes , we have visites this place for more than 10 years and always choose that,as it is really good. This is a Mexican style and local food option.
