The quality of the food served here is quite amazing. The seared tuna served with a passion fruit sauce was amazing. The tenderloin with blue cheese topping was a perfect medium, as requested. The the chicken cordon bleu was truly great as well. A quite amazing wine selection at moderate prices. This is truly a wonderful find in Santa Elena, adjacent to Monteverde. Go there!
Best I can say is the food had a good presentation. Location was convenient and place was roomy and clean. Food taste was mediocre at best and service was surly and rude. Lack of service might be due to language barrier to some extent, if I'm being lenient!
Literally in the middle of town. Promptly seated. But took ages to order. Food is made to order so it took a while. Tasted really good. Had the Chicken burger with fries. Not a lot of fries. Asked for ketchup but it never came. Food promptly cleared from table. Bill arrived and they tried to charge me for things I didn't order. But it was a genuine mistake. So please check your bill. Restaurant was full so could excuse the service.

Food was good, but $95USD for a fajita plate, chicken cordon bleu, and 2 beers is robbery. They also lied to my wife and sold her a $10 bottle of wine for $25. Stay away, there are much better places to eat. Try Tremonti, Morphos, Orchid Cafe.
Delicious food. Preparation was excellent and portions very generous. A great place to grab a meal. Kids especially loved the fruit smoothies.
