We spent 10 days in the Uvita area and this was our favorite restaurant. The dishes are unique and incredibly flavorful, the staff is delightful, the music is fun and overall it was a great experience. And we went in the rain so we didn't even have the incredible view, which can only enhance that experience!Thank you for your visit.We love that you enjoy our dishes, we hope you can visit us on a sunny day and enjoy the best views.See you soon

Having just arrived in a nearby Airbnb, we decided to walk the 400 metres to Castilloâs Kitchen (described on Trip Advisor as ££- £££. When we arrived it turns out that this is the restaurant of El Castillo, a very upmarket hotel catering for Americans. Having said that we were lucky to get a table as they were usually booked, we were treated to a lengthy spiel from the mixologist and then having decided to forego the 5/7 course taster menu, ordered from the menu. NOT that there was a menu, as the Spanish speaking chef talked you through each item, and then the French waiter translated each to you. Lesson number 1: if you have to know the price of the food, this is not the place to go. The food when it arrived was good, however, you have to give feedback to the chef about it, so it is a bit like being tasters at a catering college! When one of our party commented negatively about the depth of a dish, it was not greeted with enthusiasm. You cannot pay with colones, and this meal cost us an absolute fortune. It was nice, provided an entertaining holiday story, and taught us some valuable lessons, but do not think this is the place for a good value meal out. If money is no object, and you want a full evening of food and drink exploration, go for it - but check your wallet first!

This is a lovely restaurant that we walked to from the beach for a romantic couples dinner. We went with the whole red snapper, deep fried with sides. It was delicious and perfect for two.

Quaint little restaurant near the beach with a really nice menu. The paella was exceptional and loved the fact that the owners are involved as host and chef. Well worth the excursion. Personas hermosas en lugares hermosos.

I would have given it a higher rating because my family enjoyed their entrees very much (sushi bowl, very generous serving of mussels, and the salmon). The croquetas and Vietnamese rolls were delicious too. I appreciated the GF options for my daughter as well. However, my octopus entree was so poorly prepared I couldnât even look at the quinoa dish or the kalamata tapenade after tasting the octopus. The octopus was not placed on the hot grill after being tenderized. It was missing the charred texture so it was slimey in the mouth and very unappealing. I would have sent it back but we had already waited for our meal for so long that I gave up and tried to eat around it. Unfortunately, the party of 8 seated well after we had arrived and ordered our meal was served before us. Not sure why but it was frustrating as it delayed our own meal. I wanted to love this restaurant - the place is beautiful and the ambiance lovely - but that slimey octopus ruined my entire evening. We found our dinner at Helioconda more enjoyable and delicious with a more local flair and without the unnecessary fanciness (and pricey tab) of Citrus. We can get that - and better octopus - at home in New York City.

Ballena Bistro is my favorite restaurant to visit when I am in Costa Rica. The owner, Liz is extremely hospitable and the food is amazing. When we are staying in Manuel Antonio, having lunch here is our favorite outing. The drive from Quepos is beautiful and the atmosphere at this restaurant is calm and pristine. I highly recommend the quinoa, kale dish but all of the food is delicious.Es una alegrÃa que siempre nos visiten, muchas gracias por el review, nos veremos pronto, pura vida.

We were volunteering at the nearby Reserva Playa Tortuga and were having a wander in the local area when we saw the signs for the Bamboo Rooms. As we were walking the 'only 500m to go' signs made us keep going when otherwise we might have given up, not knowing if it was open or not. Quite a lot of ups and downs later and we finally made it, hot and sweaty, to the Bamboo Room where the owner came and chatted to us.We had wonderful cool drinks and ice creams and sat in the bar overlooking the most amazing views over the tops of the trees in the valley below and out to the sea where our volunteering sea turtle patrols took place.A wonderful find and one that we hope other volunteers to the reserve will also make the trek to now that they have the fliers we took back :)

We stopped by for lunch and had a great experience! We have had patacones at several spots and these were, by far, the best. We ordered the avocado hummus to go with them and were not disappointed. The pork nachos were also very good. Cindy, the owner, is an absolute sweetheart and makes the experience even better. Our beers were served in frosted mugs and the jalapeño margaritas were great. Loved this place and canât wait to go back on my next trip. Awww what a pleasure to have you at Los Laureles, thanks so very much for your time reviewing us it means a lot to us and for your visit so glad you enjoy your meals and beer. Looking forward for your next visit to Costa Rica and Los Laureles, thanks ladies , Cindy
