Central America is known for its flavorful food, hats made out of produce, and being the only thing preventing the South American continent from swimming away to hang out with Australia. Anchor your palate to tropical locales with today's Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of Costa Rican cuisine at Boca Restaurant & Bar in Waltham.

Whipping up a variety of dishes made with the freshest available ingredients, Boca Restaurant & Bar boasts a menu offering bite-sized takes on traditional Costa Rican, Latin American, and American dishes. The traditional rice and chicken dish (arroz con pollo, $2.99) and the mild kick of mango shrimp (camaron asado, $5.99) paint palates in exotic flavors and can be ordered with other small dishes to create a multifaceted main course. Or, have a small plate act as the precursor to a larger dish, such as the traditional steak or chicken plate (casado, $13.99). A tropical atmosphere showcases wicker seating and awnings plucked from a sunny beach. Boca Restaurant is closed on Mondays.
