Good food, but service was a bit haphazard- possibly because it was Christmas Eve and they were busy.

Our server was attentive and super sweet. There was a one-man band that played songs ranging from the Rocky theme song to Depeche Mode-and it was awesome! The ambience was fantastically weird. Behind the music man was a pool and an abandoned hotel area that included a pool with putt-putt grass deck and a storage room fitting of Dexter season 3 (the John Lithgow season). We got the special which consisted of your choice of steak (ribeye or flank), grilled octopus, veggies and mashed potatoes. That presentation was kinda weird, with way too much octopus, but overall pretty good. I would recommend going here with a sense of humor and in the mood for a good time.

Our absolute favorite restaurant in La Fortuna! We first came for our 10th anniversary and it was the perfect celebration. The food was local, fresh, and unbelievably delicious. Cocktails were well made and there was a great wine selection. The service could not have been better. There was live music. We stopped in a few days later for a late afternoon lunch. The food was as good as we remembered. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Service was exceptional. Everyone was very friendly and attentive. Food was fair. We both had steak,which was recommended in previous reviews. Restaurant is located next to the hotel pool which was noisy and decor was very dated.
