Restaurante El Conrro

Open

Downtown Historic District, San Jose

"the shrimp a la diabla were actually better than in Mexico"
"The inside feels like you're at a tías house for the recalentada"
Try the Campechana (octopus + shrimp cocktail)

The grilled octopus here might ruin you for all other octopus. El Conrro serves generous portions of Mexican seafood classics in a space that feels like your tía's house during the recalentada: warm, unpretentious, and genuinely hard to leave.
