About
The reason to come is the view: an oceanfront perch regulars call unbeatable for watching the sunset over a piña colada or a mango drink, with friendly, attentive staff. The food gets mixed opinions and lands closer to fine than memorable, so treat this as a spot for the setting and a good drink at golden hour rather than a destination dinner.

We only had a Pina colada here while watching the sunset. The drinks where very good. Friendly attentive staff. A nice place to watch the sun set.
Food ok, overall ok, but they charge 495 colones ($1 us) for a leftovers container to go when dining in! I’m already paying CR taxes and servecio on my meal, this is double dipping. Sadly, you get 4 out of 5 stars. Yes, you’ll make your xx dollars each week, but you’ll watch as your customer counts get lower and lower. Sad. Do Better
Food is good and the view and location can't be beat. Drinks were a little weak but not bad. I can't compare too much as it's my first time in Costa Rica but it was $110 for 5 people not including tip (2 drinks 2 adults). I knock off one star because my wife's food came out a long time before everyone else's. Ideally everyone should get served at the same time especially when the place is not busy but ... View is spectacular!!!
