Tamarindo Spanish

About

An upscale Mediterranean spot built for a special night out, where the executive chef comes to your table to walk through the day's menu — a touch guests mention again and again. The tuna tartare, lamb and steaks land well, there's a sommelier to pair the wine, and live music sets the tone. Servers get remembered by name for attentive, warm care that extends to kids and big groups.

Perfect date night spot, the live music, and the upscale interiors set the tone! Tuna tartare and Greek salad were tasty. We got the beef skirt and the short rib ossobuco. Ossobuco was a bit too salty but the steak was perfect! Service was professional and we got a shot of grappa to celebrate my partners birthday!

It’s our first time in Costa Rica and a friend recommended the Sofia Mediterraneo Tamarindo restaurant and it was on point. 😘👌🏻 The atmosphere was prefect and the service was great. Kathy our server was very friendly and made sure everything was tasting to our liking. We definitely recommend Sofia Mediterraneo Tamarindo for a nice evening out.

TOP NOTCH RESTAURANT FOR EVERYONE We really enjoyed our dinner at Sofia. The magic started when the executive chef Mehmet came to our table to describe the menu of the day and the other a la carte items that piqued our interest. The menu can suit anyone’s dietary requirements. Marianne the sommelier helped us find the perfect wine pairing. We feasted on a chilled Kefir yogourt soup, a grilled mushroom & vegetable salad, lamb shoulder & flank steak. I could go on and on about all the delicious flavours & tenderness of the meats but in order to be brief I’ll only say that we were not disappointed. We highly recommend Sofia. We came back the next day and had brunch at their equally amazing sister restaurant next door, Pandeli.
