Sikwa, whose name derives from the Bribri word for outsider, is Chef Pablo Bonilla''s indigenous-focused tasting restaurant on Calle 41 in Los Yoses, ranked No. 43 on Latin America''s 50 Best Restaurants in 2025. Coffee here is served as a considered closing act to a multi-course meal that traces Costa Rican agricultural and indigenous heritage through fermented, foraged, and cultivated ingredients. Beans are sourced from indigenous and small-farm cooperatives, and service explains the provenance of each cup as thoroughly as each dish. Reservations for evening sittings are recommended weeks in advance.
