I have loved Tico for a long time, but this visit was a disappointment. They've narrowed their dinner menu, losing a lot of items that were signature dishes. If you want an upscale ceviche and tacos place, this is great, but I don't find anything overwhelmingly special. The tapas are very scaled back. In the end, I had an okay meal, when I'm used to a wow meal, especially for the price. Their drinks, especially the hand mixed cocktails, are refreshing and very tasty, but also expensive. The service is among the worst I've had all year at any restaurant, with a slow waiter and managers who did not seem to notice the problems in the dining room. This actually is hard to write, but hopefully they'll fix a lot of problems. That said, I won't be making a reservation anytime soon for dinner. There is still hope in brunch, but I hope this does not just become another brunch spot. French toast is easy.
