Gusto Restaurant

Great experience at this beach restaurant! Even though we were a walk-in, they took us in and we were seated right on the sand with comfy sofa-style chairs and elegant string lights overhead. The whole ambience had that perfect mix of upscale beach vibes while still feeling relaxed and welcoming. Our hostess, Alison, was very attentive and offered great recommendations for both drinks and food. I tried the sea bass with chipotle mayo, which had just the right amount of spice and flavor. Overall, a wonderful dining experience for my family!

What a gorgeous view and the evening fire show was an extra treat! My drink was the best I’ve had in the area (mezcal cocktail) and our seafood was very fresh and well prepared. Service was pretty slow and all servers seemed busy and a little stressed, but stayed friendly and as attentive as possible all night.

Very nice place to be in Samara, Costa Rica. Directly on the beach with a beautiful view we enjoied our delicious lunch. Pictures speak for themselves and a very kind and helpful waitress, Alison, made it a perfect stay. 😊 No low budget but the prices fit to the quality. We were very satisfied and will come back!
