Glen's Recommendation
“Recommended by Beliza Solis (Enjoy Group) via validated contact from Bacchus Restaurant outreach (2026-06-22). L'ile de France is an Enjoy Group restaurant with 40+ years of tradition, located on the ground floor of Residence Inn at Avenida Escazú. Same parent company as the verified Bacchus Restaurant listing.”
