About
A beachfront restaurant in Santa Teresa where the draw is the setting—tables right on the sand, iguanas dropping by, and a sunset view that turns it into a regular spot for many. The cocktails deliver (the Dragon del Mar gets named), and dishes like fish ceviche and rice with shrimp come in generous portions. Service can slow to a crawl when it's full, and you pay at the bar, so come for the view and settle in.

A great beachfront restaurant The service is consistently fast and efficient. Booking in advance allows you to secure some really nice tables in a great setting. Located directly on the beach, the restaurant offers a lovely view, especially at sunset, which adds to the overall experience. The cocktails are very good, with a special mention for the Dragon del Mar, which stands out. The food is good and well prepared. It quickly became our go-to spot and felt like our regular place throughout the stay.
Didn't eat, just had their classic margaritas, which were good. Pretty windy, so small flowers kept falling into our beverages despite sitting under a cover. Great view with iguanas visiting at times. Service needs attention. If the place is full, expect at least 20 min+ to get a drink or service. We parked out atv in the atv area, and of course, there was a guy asking for $ to watch it. They do not come to your table to pay the bill, you go to the bar. They WILL ask for a tip, but you do not have to add even more $$ to the bill unless you feel they earned it.
We were so hungry that we couldn’t take any photos. But the food was AMAZING, so tasty and healthy, the portions were also soo big. We had the fish ceviche and the rice with shrimp, so good! Filled with vegetables, with salad and plantain chips. The service was also flawless, so nice and helpful! Especially Juan! Don’t hesitate to come if you are around!
