Normal bar and average food. Go here for the fire dancers and the views. There are much better places to eat and drink on the beach but it isn't bad. It's just normal.Hola!! Thank you for taking a minute to leave your comments. It would have been a bit more helpful if you expressed what your idea of normal/outstanding is. We aim to be consistently different from the other businesses surrounding us and most agree that we are. Our pricing is fair considering every almost every provider has a monopoly on their products. We are always open to constructive criticism. I’ve hope you will visit again. Gracias y Pura Vida

We read countless reviews on this place, I believe it is considered to be the #7th best place to eat in Tamarindo. This could not be FURTHER from the truth. To begin, the service. We were a group of four and there was already a couple there having a drink. We ordered four drinks and all ordered nachos. It took roughly 10-15 minutes just to get our drinks. The drinks were so bad we could not even finish them. When one person in our group asked for a new drink since theirs was undrinkable the service responded in a rude manor. We all ordered chicken nachos. They were covered with a mountain of nachos. There was an extremely small amount of chicken, beans, and cheese. 90% of the nachos was pico. The entire experience was weird. The place looks filthy and bugs flew all over us during our entire meal. I would say I’m not sure why there are hundred of positive reviews we were completely dumbfounded when we showed up.

Patagonia Argentinian Grill & Restaurant

Reviewed By garyc316

I have been coming to Tamarindo for the last ten years. At first there was no place to get a good steak until the Patagonia opened about 5 years ago. Now It's a place I might return twice during my 1 week stay. I enjoy the Sangria and a Strip Steak.

Reviewed By Leah_Clay2014

Some of the best empanadas we've had in all our Latin American travels. Made fresh daily, the pollo(chicken) and carne(beef) are huge and stuffed to the max. We carried a steaming bag of goodness back to our cabina every time we passed the place. Awesome fresh but just as good for the late night munchies or the next morning for breakfast.Tip of the Day.. Pick up a few for the plane trip home(and a small bottle(100ml) of Lizano from the mercado around the corner), watch the faces of other passengers as you gorge on fresh(more or less) baked empanadas while they choke down days old dry airline sandwiches and wraps..Pura vida amigos,,

Cafe Playa Negra

Great food and prices for the adventurous that want to try the energizing peruvian ceviche or for the most conservative that want a fine Tuna steak or a good hamburguer. Open for breakfast, lunch & dinner. Surf videos, bar and great music.

If you are looking for a fresh cooked to order breakfast served by the nicest family look no further than Jalapenos. Mike and his wife made us feel like part of their family while sitting outside in the cutest garden.The burritos were amazing. They were huge and delicious and filled us up till dinner time.If the setting and food weren't enough they invited us behind the restaurant to see and hand feed their chickens. For is city slickers from the US it was a definite highlight.
