Excellent pizza with fresh ingredients. I ordered "the star" which was actually more like a calzone (they filled dough with the cheese and toppings) with each point in the star with a different topping. Everyone in our family if 5 loved their food (two of our kids shared a pizza), and I wish we had a longer stay in this area to go there again.

Pizza was good and prices were very reasonable. Locations for pay off the beaten path but not too far from the main strip. This was recommended and we tried it and enjoyed it. However I would not be in area with little children after 7:30 PM as this trip becomes more of a youth crowd.

Buon Appetito

Since 2006 serving Breakfast Lunch Dinner .We make everything from scratch pizza pasta panini salads waffle pastries and gelato!

Reviewed By vatripper434

Buon Appetito isn't fancy from the outside but they've got great basic Italian sandwiches, pizza and pasta at pretty reasonable prices for Tamarindo and super friendly service. Massimo is the man that runs the cafe and is super friendly and happy to help sort out the menu. We ordered a variety of things. The smoothie was good and we ended up with pizza, pasta, a sandwich, and a salad among the four of us and all were good. Most of their salads can be ordered in sandwich form and vice versa. We ate in but they did a steady take out business too while we were there. Plenty of vegetarian options and the pomodoro sauce was particularly good.It's not a white tablecloth kind of place but the food is good and they seem very happy to have the business and to chat with the tourists who pop in. Very affordable compared to the rest of the Tamarindo dining scene.

Our family had a wonderful evening here! Marco immediately made us feel welcomed and entertained. We ordered 3 pizzas to share and my husband went inside the little shop to select a wine. With guidance from Marco, we enjoyed a spectacular bottle of red. The pizzas were perfect as was the fresh bread with oil. For dessert we shared a Tiramisu, based on seeing the rave reviews in this app. It was truly incredible and I don’t usually like tiramisu. Highly recommend this magical place!

We went there 3 times during our two week stay. Unanimous choice for our group of two couples. The staff are very good. The menu is large and sometimes hard to choose which to have. Fresh snapper with leaks and cream, pasta dishes, gnocchi gorgonzola all delicious. Nice red wines. Made it to dessert only once, gelato was very good.Very good, will return. Reservations if larger group for sure.

Homemade pasta,pizza,ravioli,gnocchi and lasagna,tiramisu and chocolate italian cake,last but not least Italian liquors,all homemade! Best quiet and comfortable environment, perfect for a real italian meal with family and friends.

Reviewed By Yvette A

Trust me, being a foodie from Los Angeles has afforded me the opportunity to enjoy many great eats from around the world. Although, I have not traveled to Italy, I imagine that Enea's is a part of Italy that has miraculously transported itself to Tamarindo, Costa Rica. This hidden gem is off of the main strip and wonderfully so. You get to enjoy some of the best homemade food in the seclusion of a private, quiet, and quaint tropical setting... not to mention, great service! I can't say enough about this place. Enjoy!Good afternoon, thank you so much for these words! We really appreciate it! We work hard to give our clients the best experience they could have. We hope to see you back soon!Andrea and Aldo(cook and waiter, co-owners)

Reviewed By Alyssa S

This is our fourth trip to Costa Rica, and each trip we have to visit Antichi Sapori at least once. The restaurant provides a taste of authentic Sicilian cuisine along with many options to accommodate food restrictions such as vegetarian and gluten-free options. Along with this, Antichi Sapori has amazing and friendly service. By far our favorite pizza in Costa Rica. The menu has a wonderful variety and the desserts are out of this world.

Reviewed By Stacey P

Always I am greeted with a warm smile, the staff remember my name and they are very flexible to cater to my eating requirements (gluten free). The food is of high quality ingredients at a very reasonable price. (The Huerto salad & Tuna Tartar being my favorite) The atmosphere is warm and open, it feels like your gathering with family and friends with the layout of the middle of the restaurant but you also have private tables off to the side in the garden for a more intimate experience. Even when it is full and very busy, service, quality and the dining experience is exceptional.Hi Stacey!Thank you very much for your review!!! We are happy to hear about your great experiences at El Huerto. We value your business and look forward to welcoming you here again soon. Pura Vida

Small, family run restaurant walking distance from the Turtle Education center. Even though it’s a husband and wife run restaurant the owners do their best to take care of everyone quickly. We stopped on a Tuesday and took the last available table. We were able to quickly order a bottle of wine and dinner, all the time while the owner kept apologizing for being so busy. Yet he and his wife were much faster then several other larger restaurants (that seem to forget about you). An enjoyable evening at a good location. ohhh thanks a lot for the commentary ! we always try to make happy our customers.And thank you so much for the food commentary .cordialy max
