Frommer's Review

Yet another option for fine dining and fusion cuisine, this small open-air restaurant has impressed me every time I've eaten here. When weather permits, more tables are set up under the trees in their beachfront garden area. Beautiful presentations and creative use of ingredients are the norm here. The menu changes regularly, but the chefs always focus on using on the freshest and best ingredients available. Be sure to save room for dessert, as they are always excellent. One of the best ways to go here is to simply opt for the nightly tasting menu, which will feature anywhere from 5 to 7 courses, including dessert. The restaurant has a good wine list, and they keep their bottles properly cool, to compensate for the often unforgiving heat of Guanacaste.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
