$$ Puerto Jiménez Spanish

About

A bright, spotless bistro in Puerto Jiménez serving breakfast, lunch and dinner from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day except Tuesday. Reviewers keep coming back — several ate here two days in a row — for well-priced, healthy plates; the Azteca soup gets called out as excellent, and the mojito earns a specific recommendation. The dining room is air-conditioned and quiet, the menu includes English translations, and the staff are repeatedly praised for handling dietary restrictions and special requests with genuine care. Takeout is available, there is parking, and it works well for kids and groups.

Great restaurant ! Spotlessly clean and quiet with air conditioning. Friendly and competent service that took all our special wishes and dietary restrictions into consideration. The food was excellent, so we came back next day for brunch 😃.

Amazing place. Beautiful inside, lovely staff and a great selection of food (including English translations). We had an evening meal and returned for breakfast.

Warm, inviting, delicious, healthy, well priced! Food and service were outstanding - will be back and highly recommend for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and ever to-go snacks. The Azteca Soup shown here was epic!
