Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We got this recommendation from Allan at Iguana Tours. We wanted authentic Costo Rician food in a nice place and some of the sodas ( local restaurants ) we were unsure about since we could not check menus . This was perfect... Google does not...have the current location - just find the firehouse in Quepos and it is across the street. For $6 get the standard Casados con Carne. - perfect - rice beans a few small cubes of meat and be absolutely shore to ladle on the pickeled habanero mix in the middle of the table. The dishes with shrimp and Dorado were also excellent. a winner !!More

We were taken to lunch here by our tour (Jade) after the mangrove boat tour. We had a nice hot typical Costa Rican lunch waiting for us, along with fresh guava juice. Hubby and I both chose fish. We were enjoying our meal, and lunch...with the group. The experience was marred for me when I used the restroom after lunch.... and found no t.p.. for women this is quite a dilemma. Take off my shirt and use it? So I opened the door a Crack and called for hubby. No response, he was already outside by the tour van. So I had to literally yell for help until a random stranger brought me t.p.. minor detail in terms of the restaurant, but it was humiliating and I just want to warn people. Take a pack of tissues or check BEFORE you sit down :(More

We came to this restaurant as a group and we’re seated at one long table. Menus had lots of options with many seafood choices. Also casual dining(burger and fries). Food was fine, but not spectacular. Prices comparable to other restaurants. Happy hour 2 drinks for...price of one. On a busy road with open air. A few fans for air circulation, but it was quite warm.More

The staff especially Paola, was amazing - so friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and we had a flaming dessert that was worth saving room for.

This bar restaurant is about 300 meters from the seafront wall, on the opposite corner to the Banco Costa Rica. We had drinks here twice (cocktails local beers) and ate some snack food (salchipapas) on our second visit. No air con but ample fans operating....Unpretentious place full of locals also does a big takeaway trade at lunchtime. A welcome antidote to some of the fancy places in Manuel Antonio with fancy prices to match. There are a few touristy shops for presents and souvenirs in the area. There is a good view at sunset across the harbour and to an empty beach. Tip: the tiny river that flows into the harbour is quite quiet. As part of a walk around Quepos we spotted a 2 metre long orange-headed iguana munching on leaves on the bank near the bridge (opposite side to the Panaderia). Down at the sea wall a Local pointed out a handful of scarlet macaws in the palm trees.More

Had dinner with the family here, the whole fish is worth trying. Traditional Costa Rican food made fresh and served hot. If only the service was with a smile, I'd give it 5 stars.
