Most Popular International food in Montezuma, Province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica
Reviews on International food in Montezuma, Province of Puntarenas, Costa Rica. North of Cabo Blanco Absolute Nature Preserve and south of Tambor Bay, along a forested sandy bay, Montezuma has numerous beaches, waterfalls, good fishing, seafood, surfing, snorkeling, horseback riding, hiking, and bicycling. Playa Las Manchas is popular for snorkeling, though you need to be mindful of riptides as you gaze at the parrotfish, rays, puffers, and needlefish. The kids will like exploring the colorful rocks and tide pools at Playa Rocas. Beachfront cantinas, bars, and restaurants are plentiful in Montezuma. Playa de los Artistas on the Montezuma beachfront serves sushi, pizza, and vegetarian dishes by lantern light at driftwood tables on smooth sand floors beneath bamboo lattice ceilings. Playa Montezuma hosts the fishing fleet. Hike half an hour to the endless sands of Playa Grande to swim, surf, boogie board, or sunbathe nude where the waves are big and the currents less strong. Horseback ride, bike, or hike the beachfront path north towards Playa Cocolito, where El Chorro waterfall tumbles into the rocky ocean. Follow the river upstream from the beach to find more waterfalls for swimming. Playa Los Cedros, a small scenic beach flanked by a waterfall and large banyan tree near Cabuya, has a right-handed point break favored by experienced surfers when the south swells get going good. The beaches and tropical forests at the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula in Cabo Blanco Absolute Nature Preserve are protected as a national park. Surf at nearby Mal Pais, Playa Santa Teresa, or Playa Carmen. Surf camps can teach you the basics.

My family is primarily vegan, so choosing Ylang Ylang was simple. The food was terrific, plentiful and delicious. What also makes the meal are the wonderful staff, people we enjoyed seeing and chatting with (in Espanol as best we could) every meal.Thank you for your review! We are happy to cater to vegan travelers and those with specialty dietary needs. We are glad you enjoyed your meals and our staff! We hope to welcome you back again someday.

I was not feeling well and had simple grilled fresh fish. Very good and moist. My hysband had the curry and coconut fish and fell in love with it. We were also greatly entertained by the house kitties. Just like home, I think they knew we were kitty lovers.

Although you can eat inside, we ate in the lovely garden in the back with all the tropical birds chirping. Staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable. We had dinner and breakfast there and we loved all four meals. On the Tuesday evening a small musical group set up at 7 pm and we thought it would be "noisy and loud" but it was great: a combination of classical guitar and music by very talented musicians. Would highly recommend this restaurant.Thank you so much for your visit. We love our art garden, we are happy you did too. We hope to see you again in the future.

Went to this place as it was recommended by our hostel, and we were very pleased. The chef personally greeted us and gave us his recommendations. We ordered pina coladas, ceviche, shrimp, and sea bass. Everything was delicious and the servers were very attentive. Loved the atmosphere as well. Would definitely recommend!

5. Chico's Playa Bar Restaurante
Reviewed By Mike F
One of two true beachside restaurants in town, both of which are great, but we have a special fondness for Chico's. Their food is fresh, menu varied with traditional Costa Rican dishes as well as Hamburgesas (with a slice of ham inside).The bar is also a great spot for people watching.Look for Amanda waiting tables in the restaurant, she is a sweet little dynamo, always happy and upbeat. Try a Margarita there and a bite to eat, you won't be sorry.
