An amazing meal for both me and my wife. We had some scallops as appetizer which was fantastic. Very good tasting. The main dishes were also great. My wife had the sea bass which she LOVED. Very tasteful, very flaky. I had the whole snapper. I absolutely loved it. Highly recommend!!
Absolutely fantastic meal at Snapper House in La Fortuna. The ceviche was incredibly fresh, bright, and flavorful, easily one of the best I’ve had in Costa Rica. The fried snapper was perfectly cooked with crispy skin and tender, flavorful fish inside. You can tell they care about quality and freshness here. Great atmosphere, friendly service, and definitely worth visiting if you’re in La Fortuna. Arturo was great as well!!
Honestly loved this restaurant. We were celebrating my birthday and the staff was very attentive and friendly. I got the snapper (huge btw) and the drinks were great! They had reggae playing all night which I loved. I would honestly go back there again, can’t recommend this place enough!
This is a more upscale spot on a side street by the square. There is parking on site and on the road. Waitress was very nice and the menu was quite comprehensive. They have various ceviches, highly recommend though it is a small portion. We tried the spicy snapper and a tilapia. Both were excellent and enormous portions! Well worth the few extra dollars. Excellent meal and presentation. I tried a smoothie (Pura Verde, I think?) It was fantastic! Best smoothie I've tried so far in la Fortuna. If you're looking for various seafood dishes, this is the place to try! They also had good tunes on :)
