The hummus shakshuka was so creamy, I kept going back for more. Fries came out super crispy too. Place had a chill vibe, mostly locals which I liked. Solid spot if you&#39;re craving Middle Eastern food around Santa Teresa. Just wish the pita was a bit warmer, but no big deal.

The burger was solid and the local craft beer hit the spot. Service took a while to get their attention, but once we did, they were friendly.

Stopped by for lunch and grabbed the tuna poke bowl. Big chunks of fresh fish, dressing was on point. Honestly still thinking about it. Price felt fair for what you get. Place was pretty busy but worth it.

Solid breakfast spot. Sort of Avo Toast was good, Huevos Vaqueros too. Lots of veggie options which I appreciate. Matcha latte was fine. Service was decent, nothing crazy. Place gets busy around noon, so go early if you can. 👍

The smoothies here are really good, I had the matcha latte too and it was solid. Small place, cozy but not fancy. Felt like a neighborhood spot where you can just sit and chill for a bit. Staff knew their menu well when I asked about ingredients. Only thing is it gets a little cramped when it&#39;s busy, but that&#39;s part of the charm I guess.

Loved how chill it was here compared to other beach clubs nearby. Just had a fresh cocktail and watched the sunset. Great spot to relax without the crowd.

Stopped by for drinks and a bite&mdash;the cocktails were well made, not too sweet, which I appreciated. Place is green and cozy, lots of plants and warm lighting. Food was decent, nothing mind-blowing, but the drink pairing made it work. Just note the bill comes with a 10% service charge already added, so it adds up quick.

Ceviche was fresh, big portion too. Good spot to grab a drink and watch the waves. Place gets busy around sunset, so you might wait a bit. But the food holds up. I&#39;ve been here a few times now, it&#39;s consistent. Not fancy, just solid.

Came for cocktails, left happy. Drinks were solid, and the live band made the vibe way better than expected. Nice spot to just chill for a bit. Didn&rsquo;t try the food though&mdash;menu looked kinda pricey for what it is. Maybe next time.

The ceviche roll caught my eye right away &mdash; sushi with a Costa Rican twist, why not. Fish was super fresh, like melt-in-your-mouth fresh. Kind of a small place but that didn&rsquo;t bother me. I&rsquo;d go back just for that roll again. Maybe next time I&rsquo;ll try something else on the menu too.

Felt like we were guests in their home, not just customers. Miguel and his wife really take care of you. The tasting menu was personal and tasty. Just remember to book ahead, only a few tables.

The bruschetta was a solid start, and my chicken shish kebab hit the spot. Cozy spot with an ocean view, service was kind. Just wish the casado had a bit more rice.

The eggs Benedict with salmon were spot on&mdash;brioche fresh, melted right in my mouth. Place has that relaxed vibe, so don&#39;t come starving and in a rush. I&#39;d ask how long the food takes if you&#39;re on a schedule. Took a bit to arrive, but honestly, the flavors made up for it.

Came with five friends and we all dug in. The casado de pescado was solid, fish cooked right and the rice and beans were on point. Arroz con camar&oacute;n had a good amount of shrimp, not stingy. The fresh fruit drinks were the real MVP though, so refreshing. Place was a bit busy but worth it.

The live music and karaoke give this place such a Pura Vida feel. Sweet pork chimichanga was solid, and the beer sampler let me try a few of their house brews without committing.

Came for the shrimp and avocado pizza, ended up staying way longer than planned. Live music made it super easy to hang out with friends. 🍕

Stopped in for lunch and ended up coming back almost every day. The owner Alex remembers everyone, which is nice. I had a cold local beer with the veggie burrito and it hit the spot. They have banana bread with vanilla ice cream sometimes &mdash; get it if they do. Only downside, it gets busy and you might wait a bit.
