Housed in an anteroom off the main lobby of the neo-baroque National Theater (Teatro Nacional), what should be just a simple coffee shop and restaurant is elevated by its setting—marble tables and floors, as well as elaborate painted ceiling murals, and regularly rotating exhibits of contemporary local artists. The menu features healthful salads, a selection of crepes, sandwiches, and lasagna. Alma de Cafe often stays open late on theater performance nights.
