Very beautiful spot underneath beach "almendro" trees, The bar has a great selection of craft beers and creative mixed drink menu, as well as local Kombucha! The menu has a interesting fusion of Caribbean and asian cuisine with many choices for vegetarian options. the Pad Thai was my favorite dish, also veggies and tofu in Jerk sauce!
best taste, service and value on Central Pacific Coast!

Pelican Hotel and Restaurant

Reviewed By Fred T - Poynette, Wisconsin

Small bar/restaurant with a beautiful view of the pristine beach at Esterillos Este. Live American style music. Food was pretty good, not great. Service was friendly and good. Family friendly. Despite location right on the water, amazingly NO ocean breezes and it was quite warm sitting outside there in the evening. Ceiling fans were on but did not seem to generate any air flow.

El Chiringuito

Reviewed By stuart s - Jaco, Costa Rica

Clean and tidy restaurant. Attentive Staff and the fod was simply gorgeous. The road is a little noisy, they should place some sound barriers as it was a little irritating with big trucks going by often. The Steak was delicious.

My wife and I ate here twice so far on our trip to Costa Rica from England. The food is incredible and the guys make you feel really welcome. Jonathan served us on both occasions and made us feel at home.
I strongly recommend the steak.
The owners have a cat who is also really friendly and took a liking to my wife.
Great place!

Selva Middle Eastern Cuisine

Reviewed By Chris H - Playa Bejuco, Costa Rica

We love eating at Selva. It's local, affordable, family friendly, and has delicious food.
Start with a humans plate or falafel. Soooo good. The stuffed pita sandwiches are great - with a big choice of fillings.
My favorite is the schwarma plate - with traditional salads, and mouth watering chicken.
The other day Selva had a special of tacos al pastor! With a hot spicy home made jalepiño sauce. Excellent.
Live music in Monday's mike for more fun. Friendly staff and cheap beer.
We will continue to go back.
