Really unsympathetic, overpriced place (e.g. water cost 1500 colons, normmaly 1000 colons). WC costs 1 USD or 500 colons. Parking per day 10 USD.

We had prawns cooked in garlic, therefore, just a bit more than just fried, and a mixed salad each. Price was over 25.000 colones ( more than 41.000$). We ate the same thing in other places and it was far more affordable.

When I travel to such a remote place like Tortuguero, I am not looking for the commodities of progress. What I really want is to experience the place as is. This is what Muellecito offered. Simple delicious carribean food, normal prices and the authentic feel. I loved to witness a family run business where their own life was happening - adorable kids running around and playing, friendly dogs making me company, locals hanging around.Went there more than once during my stay and will go back if in Tortuguero again!

One of the few restaurants in Tortuguero with excellent choices of food and quality! The restaurant is right by the beach which makes it a great place to hang out in the afternoons or evenings. I personally love their thin crust pizza and the variety of them. The staff is amazing and very attentive. I would definitely recommend.Thank you, this kind of comments help us to keep the great quality we want to offer to our customers, hope to see you soon!

I loved this restaurant. It's right in the center of everything first of all. Also, the owner and staff are very very friendly. They are always willing to chat and get to know you. Not to mention that the food is delicious and prepared fresh.

Sandwiched between the Caribbean Sea and the rivers of Tortuguero is Miss Junie's Lodge. We were welcomed with complementary cocktails which was welcomed after our long and hot journey. The grounds and gardens in which the lodge is set are teaming with wildlife; it is not a rare sight to see great green macaws flying overhead! Our hosts arranged a canal tour for just us which was fantastic and so informative, we saw lots of wildlife including the American Pigmy Kingfisher and the Chestnut Breasted Heron, which we were told are very rare sights. Our tour guide also gave us lots of information about the history of Tortuguero. We were very grateful for the pool at our accommodation as the sea is not safe to swim in, it was a nice break from the beaming sun. Our cabin was very clean and well presented each day, with a fan and bug screens. We would definitely recommend staying here if visiting Tortuguero because of the great location, lovely hosts and delicious breakfasts!

We arrived early evening and there was a friendly welcome. We sat outside but we did regret it as we were bothered and bitten by mosquitoes inspite of wearing repellent. We ordered beer to drink and for food it was the chicken and the pork chop from the short menu. The food didn't take too long. The accompaniments to the dishes were two kinds of rice, buttery veg and salad. Everything we had was flavoursome. We were joined by friendly dogs while we ate, but we finished everything so not sure there were any scraps left. It was good value for money. Overall we enjoyed the food in this simple place.

Great food place in Tortuguero. Serves a few variations of the typical casado with your choice of meat.
Reviewed By Felix Z
Typical local Caribbean food, you basically choose the casados with chicken (4,000 CRC), stake, shrimp or fish. The fruit shakes (we had pineapple) were great and affordable (1,000 CRC). The interior was as already mentioned on here quite basic but the two tables outside were good enough for us. We ate more Caribbean food around Costa Rica and this was our favourite!

We had a great dinner at Mi Nino. Starts with a warm greeting. Good cocktails (we had the lemonade with mint). The patacones are very fresh and tasty. The Caribbean chicken with a coco/ginger sauce was delicious. The price is fair unlike some other places who try to charge 20$ for a pizza!Congrats to Mi Nino. Continue with the great job!Gracias por reseñas como estas es que seguimos dia con un solo objetivo complacer a nuestros clientes .
