About
Serious barbecue in La Fortuna, with ribs that come fall-off-the-bone tender and smoky, juicy brisket. The tomahawk steak is the showpiece — big enough for two and carved tableside with a bit of theater. Surf n turf and the passion fruit mojito get repeat praise, there's a trampoline to keep kids busy, and it fills up early, so book ahead.

MARY’S BBQ is an absolute gem. From the moment we arrived, everything was spot on – friendly and attentive service, relaxed atmosphere, and, most importantly, incredible food. I had the ribs and they were hands down the best I’ve ever tasted – perfectly cooked, fall-off-the-bone tender, and packed with flavour. The brisket was just as impressive: juicy, smoky, and wonderfully tender, with a great balance of seasoning. Every detail, from the meat to the sides and the way the staff took care of us, made the visit unforgettable. Highly recommended – if you love good BBQ, you have to eat at MARY’S BBQ.
Owner and the staff is friendly and offers very good service. Our food and drinks are prepared well. The food is a bit salty to me but my friends are all like their orders. Size is big enough. Well priced.
Excellent experience here! visiting Costa Rica for the first time and so far it’s been living up to the hype. This restaurant had exceptional vibes and even better food. I went with our server Diego’s recommendation, and ordered the surf n turf. Came out perfectly done and full of flavor. The drinks were also very well made and the passion fruit mojito was next level. I will absolutely be coming back and letting my friends and family back home know that this is the spot to be on any given night. Can’t wait to come back. Thank you to Diego and the rest of the staff for the hospitality! Pura Vida
