4.8 / 5.0(695 reviews)
This place is absolutely amazing. We ate breakfast and then dinner, in the same day. Every we had was literally the best food we have had in Costa Rica in the last 6 days. The waitress was super sweet and my kids and I will be back tomorrow as well. Ok, my new favorite place in Costa Rica! Second time coming and 2nd to last night... So I've tried my rounds. I got the shrimp quesadillas and asked for a side of pico de Gallo and... Oh. My. Goodness!!! It was so delicious, full of flavor! We started off with Ceviche which I have at every restaurant here pretty much, and I have yet to have a bad one. So so good! My husband got the hamburger with bacon and he said it was delicious as well. We ended with the tres leches cake which was a perfect ending! They have a few parking spots out back, they have a beautiful overview of the sky where we watched the lightning, everyone was super friendly, and they had a few fun table games for the kids to be entertained by. The food took a little time to come out, but that made it extra special for me cuz you know they are making everything fresh to order. I am documenting this so if we ever come back to Costa Rica, I will remember to come here again! Cinco estrellas para todo ✨ This restaurant is located near our hotel. We visited twice in 3 days because of its awesome vibes and excellent food. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and area and the staff are lovely people. There are also local dogs that lounge by your feet sniffing for snacks.

We tried this place because it had really good reviews. We had great service. The restaurant was small but empty. The parking is a little complicated. We ordered fish casados and unfortunately the fish was very dry. But the other food was good.

The BEST food we had during our trip to Costa Rica! Ice cold beers with a salt rim and lime was the first clue we made the right choice with this spot 🍻 The second was the delicious guacamole that we couldn’t get enough of 🥑 then the beef burrito that had the perfect balance of flavors!! You know it’s good when you see the locals eating here. Highly recommend 👍🏻
