Best service we've had in a year of traveling Costa Rica. The food was amazing too, best lobster I've ever had. Our server Andrés attention to detail was above and beyond expectations and every support staff was great too. Thank you for making our night exceptional, a high recommend.

Wow! From the moment I walked in, to the moment I left it was an amazing experience. I was greeted and seated right away. The server, Andres, is very knowledgeable and provided excellent recommendations. He went above and beyond to fulfill all my requests. I tried different drinks and each one was delicious! I ordered the Salmon with sweet potatoes and I ate it all! The presentation of the food and drinks, low lighting, trees, and decor work together to create a relaxing and serene ambiance. Definitely is a must try if you are visiting Puerto Viejo! Pura Vida!

Ambiance was nice and loved the decor. Went here for a nice dinner on my last night at Puerto Viejo. The staff was friendly and the food was delicious. Prices are higher than other places in the area but I think they are trying to brand this as fine dinning. If you don't mind a slightly higher price point, I'd def recommend it. Try the banana in a box dessert.

My family was in Puerto Viejo over Christmas. We made reservations to have our Christmas dinner at Koki Beach Restaurant. This was the most expensive dinner we had our entire 12 days in Costa Rica, but we did splurge since it was Christmas. I ordered the Christmas special which was a pork chop. I don't usually eat pork but it was very good. My husband ordered the snapper and loved it. One of my kid's ordered chicken tenders, one ordered a stir fry, and one ordered a steak, shrimp, and lobster combo. They all enjoyed their meals. The banana in a box is the best dessert and a must try. The service was friendly. I would eat here again.

I've put 5 stars everywhere cause i can't put more than that, but realy this place is just perfect. Very good service by Andres, very good food and amazing drinks. It's the place you have to go in Puerto Viejo for a very good moment.

I was in Puerto Viejo for a week and this restaurant was the only place I returned to more than once — and that was not JUST for the amazing food and beautiful drinks, but also for their top-tier staff. The bartender, Steven, was a master at his craft and I loved sitting at the bar watching him construct each vibrant cocktail he sent out and he was also so kind. My waiter, Andres, was the main reason I had to come back multiple days in a row; he had impeccable attention to detail, anticipated my needs before I could even think them, and kept me entertained all night with his hilarious personality and conversation. It was the best service I’ve ever received. You simply MUST visit Koki Beach if you are in the area, and make sure you request Andres!!

Churrasco was incredible, as was the Octopus. I'd say food is definitely worth the price. Drink presentation is the best in the area (along with Soca next door), flavor is good, pricey for what they are though considering the area. Chill upscale atmosphere

Food Quality: very good quality. Delicious food and great flavours. Good fresh ingredients and burger in a ciabatta bread is very tasty. Portions: great portions. Plates are plentiful and very satisfying. Drinks: nice selection of cocktails and other drinks. Price: $$$ not cheap, but very good food and quantity served. Service: very friendly and fast. Atmosphere: beautiful location at night. Very well decorated and garden lights setting a very nice chilled mood. Highlights: food and atmosphere. Payment Method: cash, cc

Wonderful place that we went to twice. If you want to be sure to get in, make a reservation. The prices are high, but totally worth it. We loved our food both times. And their drinks with the sugar cane sticks were on point. Just chew on the sticks to get the sugar water out. 😊

We had an incredible dinner here! Our waiter Andres was excellent and gave great recommendations for dishes to try as well as places to visit in the area. The food was delicious and served in a beautiful setting - plus a sloth even crawled above us while we ate!!!

Very nice ambiance, attentive and cool staff, amazing cocktails, and good music. As many other reviewers said, a sloth appeared on the roof during the evening (it’s unclear what makes this a regular occurrence and whether that is good for a wild sloth, but it seemed healthy and unfazed by the loud music and crowd of people). The vegetarian offering was very limited, and the vegetable skewers were literally just…. Vegetables on sticks with soy sauce, and salad. No protein or carbs at all! The meat and fish offerings looked much more comprehensive. The chocolate mousse was incredible.

We saw this restaurant and got Tulum or Bali vibes so we had to stop in. They had great music and great food. I enjoyed the Gin and tonic and my husband got the passion fruit cocktail. They were both delicious. For an appetizer we got the Peruvian ceviche. It was sooo good. It came with plantains and paired perfectly. Very tender fish, it was very fresh, and came with accompanied by grilled corn which was delicious. For entrees I got the churrasco and my husband got the surf and turf. My plate was huge. Lots of meat and perfectly crispy potatoes with yummy chimichurri sauce. My husbands surf and turn was a little smaller. With half a lobster and 2 small steak medallions. The service was great until a really big party was sat and then they sort of forgot about us which was a bummer cause we weren't even offered a dessert menu. Prior to the large party arriving there were very attentive and had wonderful recommendations. The only real deal breaker for me were the prices. It was Tulum/Vegas prices and we spent over $160usd on 2 entrees, 1 app, and 2 cocktails. I would still recommend this place and would go back but maybe just for an app and drinks.

I absolutely love this place! I have been back many times over the years and will never pass the opportunity to eat at KOKI Beach! The presentation and taste of the food is first rate. The staff are all so friendly and efficient.

We stopped by a couple of times during our trip, including for a special birthday dinner. It has a trendy vibe and offers top-notch food and service. The dishes were delicious, the drinks well-crafted, and the service attentive. The owner even took the time to stop by our table and chat with us at the bar, adding a personal touch to our experience. Overall, a great spot to dine while in Puerto Viejo.

Located right on the ocean front of puerto viejo looking over the ocean and the streets. Wonderful view and good Peruvian food. Flavor was great on chaufa Peruano con mariscos y lomito. Grill tuna salad and ceviche was ok. The drinks were great.

Delightful, trendy restaurant with a high-end look and sound for those looking for an easy evening of quality food and service. I took off one star for service due to a lack of access for the mobility-challenged. I did not see any ramps for wheelchairs, so I have no idea how anyone wheelchair-bound would be served. I stopped in for dessert and ordered the chocolate mousse. To call this sweet taste-treat "decadent" would be an understatement to its amazingly rich flavor. The drinks are also exceptional - I highly recommend their Pina colada. The lighting makes the atmosphere particularly intimate and romantic. The music seems to be a tape of popular American songs remixed by various artists, which, IMHO is oftentimes better than the original version. The wait-staff is friendly and attentive, two above-standard characteristics where this restaurant excels.

Calm, chill and cool spot! Great cocktails (pricey 8000+) exc service, lots of seating, good menu! Delicious chips and good ceviche!! Great spots for drinks ! Bathrooms see beatiful

I loved this place! The food was excellent! The service was great and the atmosphere made for amazing people watching. Our server did a fantastic job making us feel welcome. He practiced his english as we practiced our spanish. We ordered our meal and the food was brought out in a short amount of time. Our steaks were cooked to perfection. My only criticism would be the food may have been priced a little high. The meal was filling.

The dining experience was very good, dishes like octopus, steak, and vegetarian skewers, all beautifully presented and served punctually. We kicked off with a cocktail that was exceptionally well-received. The service, led by Michael, was outstanding. He exhibited great enthusiasm for his work and provided excellent recommendations. The ambiance in the restaurant was very inviting, with a tastefully thought-out layout. However, the website does not reflect this excellence. It lacks sufficient information and gives the impression that the restaurant might not be of high quality.

This is a wonderful location, but be prepared to pay tourist prices. You had also better not leave without trying some chocolate! I got the French toast, mocha coffee float and the chocolate cheesecake. Highly recommend.

So amazing! I don’t normally visit the same place in such a short amount of time but I will definitely be back. I ordered the iced salted caramel mocha and the Caribbean jerk chicken sandwich and it was all delicious. I also bought some of the jerk sauce and some of their chocolates. Will be returning to try the mocha cheesecake at least and buy a few gifts for some people at home. Delicious Edit: I went back for the gazpacho and mocha cheesecake and they were both great, don’t miss out on this amazing spot

Bread and chocolate…how can you go wrong?! We had very limited time. They made us fresh ice teas to go. We grabbed several brownies to eat on the bus. Wish we could have stayed longer. Staff was cordial and spoke good English.

The name grabs anyones attention because it surly grabbed mines ! My sister wanted to check this spot out for breakfast so we rode our bikes up and indulged and I’m glad we did . The menu in general didn’t disappoint ! We had the Caribbean coconut pancakes & French toast, everything was super flavorful and fresh which I can always appreciate ! My sister ordered the deconstructed latte where you had to assemble everything yourself from the salted Carmel , cream and all . I ordered an iced salted Carmel latte I couldn’t taste any salted Carmel at all but it was still a good choice or picks . 10/10 recommend for brunch !

Great place. Love their soup, it was a cold soup so it was super refreshing also they have a Jerk chicken sandwich which was amazing. Highly recommend this place. Place is known for bread and chocolate, hence their name so come down for that if not for lunch or breakfast.

Was craving american style breakfast and this place hit the spot! Came here multiple times and it was great each time, bit expensive for the area but I say its worth it to splurge! Staff is awesome and love their butter and jam actually.

A few days before we travelled to Puerto Viejo we met someone who had visited there several times. We asked her if she could recommend any good restaurants, and the first words out of her mouth were “Bread and Chocolate”. It didn’t take us long to figure out why that was her first recommendation. Bread and Chocolate has it going on. Great food (and in the case of the baked goods off-the-charts delicious food), delicious coffees, reasonable prices, and exceptionally friendly and helpful staff who really appreciate your business. While they serve some really delicious sandwiches that make for a satisfying lunch, our meal visits were focused on their amazing breakfasts. A couple of “can’t miss” items here: the Caribbean pancakes with a side of bacon; and, their justifiably famous “Completely Homemade PB&J”. We had very high expectations for both these breakfast classics, and they didn’t disappoint. But, in all honesty, we spent most of our time devouring their amazing desserts, accompanied by various takes on delicious coffee. In the dessert category, top of the list has to be the best Coconut Cream Pie we’ve ever had - anytime, anywhere! But their various chocolate desserts are - not surprisingly - consistently amazing. And don’t miss the Blackberry Cheesecake. We almost did due to our chocolate and coconut cream pie fixation, but thankfully the owner convinced us to try the Blackberry Cheesecake and it was phenomenal. Finally, they rock the coffee game every day. Whether you’re dialed into their hot coffees (we love both their Americano and their French Press), or their decadent iced coffees (the Salted Caramel Cappuccino in particular is just superb!) you can’t go wrong finding a perfect pairing for the scrumptious desserts. Bottom line: we’ve been home for a week and we already miss this place. If you find yourself in Puerto Viejo make sure you find Bread and Chocolate and explore their menu.

I enjoyed a rum and chocolate tasting at another spot in the city and the staff suggested checking out this restaurant. I love chocolate so I was sold based solely on the name! My sister and I rode bikes to this restaurant and arrived a little after 7am on a Saturday. lucky for us there was no wait. There was one guy serving as the greeter and wait staff. There were 3 other tables with patrons upon our arrival . The young man asked us for our order fairly quickly. I opted for the Caribbean pancakes and a deconstructed salted caramel latte. I did add a side of 2 scrambled eggs to get some protein in my meal. My sister ordered the salted chocolate caramel mocha cold drink and the frenchies. The drinks came out first. I love the idea of a deconstructed latte. The expresso came out in the mug and I received a small container of what appeared to be frothed milk and a separate container of caramel. This gives you the option to add as much or little milk and caramel to your drink as you like. My only feedback is that it appeared to be more of a cappuccino than a latte and that the caramel lacked a salted taste. However, the caramel was tasty. Would I order it again, probably not. The food came out within approximately 10-15 minutes. It was clear that the food was cooked to order. The pancakes are worth the hype! They were AMAZING! Every flavor written in the description popped when eating them! I would highly recommend the pancakes. The eggs were just ok. I would not order those again. The total cost of my meal was about $16.00. It’s about the same as eating out for breakfast in the United States. I am going to be honest and admit that I read the reviews and was expecting to be wowed with everything. The only item that I had that wowed me was the pancakes. I suggest giving those a try!

What’s better than bagels for breakfast? Bagels with creamy scrabbled eggs, avocado and bacon! This cafe is brilliant and was only 200m from our accommodation. Opening at 6.30am, it caters for those early birds going to work, to catch a wave, heading out of town on an early bus or perhaps just the locals. At 7am the place was about 50% full. Eyeing off other diners plates to see what was on offer. People were dining on waffles or pancakes or even just toast with butter and jam. Either way, very nice. Oh and ask for a cappuccino iced coffee - d e l i c i o u s! I went here twice and had scrambled eggs with a bagel, avocado and bacon. The second time I had toast with cream cheese and avocado. Both filled me up for a day of activity ahead. A must place for brekkie at a reasonable price. Notes: staff exceptional helpful. Not wheelchair accessible. Toilets were very clean. Vegetarians and vegans catered for. #intrepidtravel #bestofcentralamerica @intrepidtravel #breadandchocolatecostarica #breadandchocolatecafe

Best breakfast I've had in a long time! Fresh fruit is perfect! The drinks are amazing and the fresh made food is amazing!

Off the beaten path. This is a small restaurant that serves breakfast all day. We had a variety of dishes all of which had good presentation and tasted good. Our sever was very accommodating and friendly. She spoke both English and Spanish which helped us to order our meal. The food was pretty quick to be prepared and served to us. Especially for how busy they were, the level of service was great. Definitely worth stopping in, if you’re looking for a breakfast type of an option.

This place was so good! We came for coffee and breakfast. Our coffee came “deconstructed” as stated on the menu and we thought that was fun lol. My boyfriend had scrambled eggs, toast and potatoes and I had a fried egg and cheese biscuit. Both were really good. We left with some chocolates, granola and 100% cocoa since I forgot to grab some on our chocolate making tour. The service was friendly and probably the best we’ve had in the area.

If this is your first time in PV you need to have breakfast here! Everything is made fresh and with local ingredients! And they have a bakery and homemade chocolate bean to table! Our favorite was the creamy scrambled eggs with their homemade bagel and the Caribbean pancakes 🥞

We came here for dessert (3/29/24)and they did not disappoint. I will go back to try their breakfast.

So, we don't normally eat at the same restaurant more than once when we visit new places. Bread and Chocolate broke our rule. This was hands down our favorite breakfast place in Puerto Viejo. Over two visits, we tried the Patacon Avo Toast, Banana Pancakes, Breakfast Bagel, and the Completely Homemade PB&J. Everything was so fresh and delicious. The only thing I'd pass on next time is the PB&J. It was good, but I sacrificed ordering the BBQ Sammy which I probably would have liked more. They're closed on Monday, so keep that in mind if you're the type to plan every meal. Don't miss out on this spot. It's one of the best breakfasts we've had in Costa rica.

Meals have good flavor but way too much unnecessary grease. Meals can still taste really good being natural and light. If you’re one that wants to take care of yourself and avoid extra fat, I wouldn’t recommend this place. As an example, their scrambled eggs are packed with heavy whipping cream. I would suggest checking out Port Vell, as they have good meals but much lighter:)

A hidden gem in Coccles next door to La Cameleon. An amazing wine list for Costa Rica to match some great food with great service

If you want a restaurant with a romantic atmosphere, amazing Italian food, and great service in Puerto Viejo, this one wins. Thank you for a great experience!

Beautiful place, excelent service, prices a bit high but the food is gourmet, high value for money. Ilario, the owner, is such a great person

Every time I come to Puerto Viejo I have to come here to fulfill my true Italian crave. An amazing chef that brings you the best experience of wine and food. Thank you 🙏

Great dinner option, nice ambience, I liked that it was kind of hidden but easy access at the same time. I recommend making a reservation before. Not cheap, but it doesn't need to be as the food is worthy, I really like their pizza, it's been a while I have tried a good pizza like that.

I frequent once or twice a month when I like to indulge. Lovely space. Includes bread and soup as well as an amuse bouche dessert. House wine is brought to the table and you're charged for based on your consumption. Euro touches I appreciate. The service is excellent and friendly. The owner is very personable and will stop by and chat. I would recommend. It is expensive but I appreciate the small touches and the friendly staff. Also they offer half portions or even quarter portions if you like.

What a great Italian restaurant! We went for the daily recommendations and enjoyed bruschetta as appetizer, risotto with squid in squid ink and rigatoni with a flavourful mix of three meats in a creamy sauce. Everything was great and very fresh! We also had the chance to enjoy a vegetable soup as house recommendation and a fruity, very light orange sorbet on the house. Everything was delicious and the portions were big. The location is beautiful and feels very upscale. Their staff is very friendly and we enjoyed our dinner very much. It is higher priced, but worth it.

Lovely, romantic restaurant. We had dinner here with our 2 kids ages 10 and 9. They had pasta and we shared the fish platter. We got some bread with garlic sauce, and some soup on the house. The food was delicious and the portions quite big, we could not finish everything. We had a bottle of wine on our table but we paid only for what we drank from it. The service was really nice and fast.

Wow, my partner and I had an amazing meal, with such wonderful attention to detail, special touches and great advice on the wine, the specific courses and the available serving size options. At first I was a little surprised by the price level, but our waiter helped us pick out just the right sequence and decided on half-orders split in two. We picked 3 courses and they added (at no charge) a nice squash soup at the beginning as well as some samplers of their sorbets and a limoncello at the end. The open-air restaurant, visit to the wine cellar and the lounge area where they offered us the limoncello at the end were all delightful. Really hidden - we had to persist and drive up the road and through the gate to find it.

Probably the best meal of my life. We had 9 courses (including a tiny mango sorbetto and tiny chocolate gelato and cookies and limoncello at the end, on the house) and each course was fabulous. Service was impeccable and the atmosphere and ambience were gorgeous and perfect. I’m pretty sure I haven’t experienced service like this since before the pandemic. And, the value was excellent as well. Our server was a lovely gentleman originally from Argentina and he was attentive without being overbearing and the whole team worked together to take care of us. Highly recommend and will definitely be going back.

Very nice experience. The restaurant is beautiful, looks elegant, but feels comfortable because it’s not pretentious. Service is really friendly, local waiters that might not be ‘experts’ serving but do their work amazingly. I liked the menu options, very classic italian. Personally, I would like to see some twists with local ingredients in the specials. Food was delicious. While we were choosing our order we got served some crostini with a special mayo, very tasty. After ordering they serve a complimentary soup, roasted veggies and lentils. The main dishes were great. Pasta with seafood, spaghetti a la vongole, beef ravioli and ricotta ravioli. Delicious, good portions except the ricotta ravioli that could have a few more. We wanted to order dessert but weren’t amazed by the options. Dinner ended with a small scoop of hibiscus sorbet. Prices are high, worth it, but expensive. Most mains were around 20k colones (~$30). Would recommend it to anyone who visits Puerto Viejo and likes nice dinners.

The atmosphere was high end, yet laid back with excellent service & delicious food & beverages. It is a bit on the spendier side, but I loved that they offered smaller portions at a lesser amount so you could try multiple dishes. The gnocchi was superb!

I've dined out a lot and had my fair share of steaks, but the tomahawk steak was by far the best steak I've ever had. It was cooked perfectly and it was more tender than some filet mignon I've had. All of our needs were tended to and the staff was wonderful. Highly recommend stopping by and eating. Their sushi and curry are also extremely delicious!

This was the best food we have come across in Costa Rica. We ordered appetizers, sushi and entree and everything was to die for! The owner was greeting customers as they entered and you could see his true love for what he does. A must try while in Puerto Veijo !

Easily the best meal we had here! The owner is present and clearly cares about the quality of both food and service. 10/10 recommend!!!

Dined there on new year's eve. Friendly staff and great food. The tempura fried sushi was amazing. Absolutely worth the price.

Chicken wings were great. Sushi wasn’t world class but it hit the spot. Quality of fish was good though. Menu looks really diverse!

Very delicious food, attentive staff. Has daily offer of fresh seafood. Very good and recommendable fusion kitchen. We will come back and recommend you :)

Amazing special of lamb curry, awesome sauce, full of meat. Andrew is an excellent host. I took his recommendation on food and drink and was very very impressed. And great specials on cocktails. The margarita was awesome.

Absolutely outstanding meal. Incredible flavors. Handmade gyoza. THE BEST tuna tataki and perfectly cooked scallops I've ever eaten (although not on menu, they were able to accommodate). Amazing sushi rolls and than finally to die for desserts-lemongrass flan and over the top cheesecake. Can't say enough good things about Chili Rojo. The owners Andrew and Ikeko were so wonderful and inviting. Overall, a dining experience we won't soon forget.

I had some sushi which was ok. And the green curry chicken.... I've had Green curry a lot of places but this place wasn't that great. It lacked the rich coconut and spicy curry flavor that this dish is known for..the staff was really friendly. I would try this restaurant again but I would try something different to see how other meal's compare

Went there yesterday. Food was good. Service was terrible. While I was paying the bill I said the food was good but they had switched up my soup but that’s not a problem and I will pay the bill. They had switched up my Thai coconut soup with the Thai green curry soup. I continued to tell them they gave me a chicken soup and not the fish soup I had ordered but it’s not a big issue I will pay the bill. They brought out the whole staff to tell me they made me a fish soup and I did not know what I am talking about after I had told them multiple times it’s not a big issue and that I had already said I will pay the bill. I told them I can tell the difference between fish and chicken and I was not given a fish soup but don’t tell me I don’t know what I am talking about. They would not let it go and continued to let me know that they did not make a mistake and I was given a fish soup. Food was still good I would not go back for their service, food will also take a long time to come out so be patient.

Hands down my favourite restaurant in Puerto Viejo. Every single time I’ve eaten there the food has been 10/10. Unbelievable sushi, so fresh & tasty. And if you ever see the lamb on the specials, be sure you order it as it’s out of this world!! Staff are so welcoming & always make time to connect with you. Thanks for always making dinners out exceptional!

I absolutely loved my experience at Chile Rojo. The food and drinks were stellar, I had the sushi and Korean wings. The service was also impeccable, and Andrew the owner was very personable and welcoming. I highly recommend dining here in lovely Puerto Viejo!

Huge shout out to owners Andrew and his wife for a spectacular experience on Valentines Day at Chili Rojo. From the moment we came into the restaurant Andrew greeted us at the door and provided us with a first class table. We started with cocktails, and then had a delicious appetizer and then on to our main meal and dessert. The waiter was courteous and pleasant - the environment was comfortable and the entire experience was amazing - Thanks to our friend Tony and his wife Claire for choosing this spectacular restaurant - The jumbo shrimp were out of this world. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone thanks Andrew, Beth and Ted (Ontario Canada)

This is probably the best meal we have had in Costa Rica. Very fresh and favorable. Very gracious host as well. Thanks... Colorado couple

Best meal of the trip. We stopped here because it was busy so we figured it must be decent. The owner is a chef who has traveled the world, and it shows. Fantastic blend of flavors and foods. Our family, including three kids, all agreed it was the best meal of our trip. We ordered, then ordered food again! When discussing coming back the kids said this will be their favorite restaurant.

We came here on our 4th day in Costa Rica. We had been eating a lot of rice and beans and meats - and wanted something a little lighter. The sushi was perfection! Also recommend the dynamite shrimp and spring rolls as appetizers. Lovely staff!

We come to Puerto Viejo often, because we love the people, energy the ocean and the food. We never miss an opportunity to eat at Chile Rojas. Kudos to Andrew and his team they do an excellent job preparing clean and fresh high quality food. Keep up the good work ! Rod and Trieste

Incredible. The flavors are amazing, every dish was delicious and left us wanting more. Lovely handcrafted cocktails— the spicy mango margarita is top notch, as well as the special cocktail, a ginger star fruit mojito! YUM. We started with the muscles and spicy plantains, both were great. Our server handled our 6 top with ease, and the ocean breeze and waves added to the ambiance. If we lived here, we would be here all the time. Honestly sad we didn’t try it sooner! Thank you to everyone for a meal we will always remember!

The food, drinks, and the service was divine!! Had the green curry mahi mahi and the tandoori masala mahi mahi as well as starfruit mojitos, spicy mussels for appetizer and passionfruit cheesecake for dessert. Delicious!! It’s a bit pricier than the sodas in town but it’s definitely worth treating yourself with a visit at least once!

One of my favorite places in Puerto Viejo! The food is always on point and delicious, Stash’s sauces are really special. Fantastic service and a beautiful atmosphere with a stunning view. Great cocktails and always something fun for happy hour. They are serving brunch as well as dinner now and I can’t get enough, everything is so good! Don’t miss this spot, you’re going to love it!

This was our best meal in Costa Rica. We have a weakness for curries and most asian food, and this fusion was EXCELLENT. Loved the concept of choosing your sauce, then selecting the meat/chicken/fish.

Such a beautiful setting with outstanding food and service! Everything from the drinks to the appetizers to the main courses that were recommended deserves recognition. They also had art for sale from local artists that made wonderful souvenirs.

Beautiful beach views and delicious sauces. Cocktails of the day were great. We went a couple times.

Nice spot with very friendly staff. Started with pakoras and plantain, and mains included jerk chicken, tandoori coconut, butter chicken, and green curry – all solid choices. Good experience overall. 👍

Absolutely stunning fusion of Caribbean, Tico, and Chinese, Indian food with delicious cocktails and a great sunset view. It is slightly off the Main Street so it was quite and peaceful. We tried the spicy mango cocktail and Jamaican margarita which were both tasty. I felt the value was good for the cocktail. For food I had the tamarindo sauce chicken. Yummy. Spicy and flavorful. My wife has the Caribbean Pad Thai which wasn’t her favorite. Not bad just 6/10. Couldn’t figure out what was different about their version. Maybe they could put a description on the menu. We also has spicy curry plantain which was out of this world good! We’d go back.

This place is wonderful! My 10 year old son and I both love Stashus- it’s a place that we both agree on, and it never fails! :) The staff is amazing- warm- friendly-and attentive. We always feel like we are being welcomed home . The food is made with love and care and the sauces are to die for! We have worked our way through the menu and loved it all- some of my favorites- Indian Butter Chicken, Fish (or chicken ) in Thai Peanut sauce, Tamarindo Chicken and let’s not forget the homemade Passion Fruit Cheesecake!! We always recommend Stashu’s to our Air B&B guests as a “don’t miss” place to eat. So- Don’t miss it!! It’s truly a gem!

Amazing place where you can enjoy from a beautiful sunset. Food and drinks are great, but they are a little bit expensive. The owner was super kind and had the attention of decorating my table because that day was my birthday. It's located on the first floor so it's difficult for people on wheelchair to get there. Have your precautions. I recommend it.

Stashu’s is justifiably proud of the amazing view of the bay from their second floor; the views of the sunsets are spectacular. But as beautiful as the view is, the real star here is the amazing food. We had two fabulous dinners there during our three weeks in Puerto Viejo, and both were fantastic. They focus on fresh seafood bathed in luscious sauces that incorporate flavours from a variety of cuisines: Thai; South Asian; and, Mexican to name a few. They also rock salads, and their desserts are fabulous as well. This is one of the more expensive restaurants in Puerto Viejo (*expensive by Costa Rican standards) but worth every penny. Highly recommended.

Easily the best place around All the homemade sauces are amazing The guys are super friendly and the view is great Don’t skip the daiquiri 😉
