Reviews
Great food. Many options. You can sit by the ocean with music and beers.
Service is a catastrophe. 10% tip is already on the bill without even asked. You have to wave 5 times to pay. Not worth it, go somewhere else!
We were taking the 12:00 ferry and stopped in to eat brunch before boarding. We were the only people there. They were very helpful (our Spanish is virtually non-existent) and we really enjoyed their music. We both got the Tikipinto Brunch (very good and we were excited to try a traditional Costa Rican dish), my husband got the Lemonade with Mint and I got the pineapple with Basil. The food was good and the drinks were amazing! Nice views, enjoyable music, good location.
Service was great. Atmosphere if you like loud music while having a drink. Disappointment was on the food. Some had the ceviche, other fish and chips and sort is seafood dish. I am questioning the freshness of the fish. Probably frozen? But the french fries were really good.
