We went based on a recommendation from a friend and were not disappointed. Food was great (surf & turf for $20 USD), Sangria was refreshing, indoor sitting underneath a nice fan.. atmosphere was fun and not loud, and portions were large. If you can.. save room for dessert as the coconut cream pie was like cheesecake and amazing. The coffee... More

Not expensive, service is very good. I had breaded chicken cutlet and it was very good - but very salty. Luckily, I don't have any sodium restrictions or else this would've been a huge problem. But I liked it --- came with potatoes but they substituted rice and beans for me. Not a bad place, unless the bus is parked... More

immediately upon entering you are greeted by the most beautiful green formed concrete bench seating. combine that with the friendliest hostess on the planet and the best food in Costa Rica and you have 1 beautiful restaurant. go to this restaurant!

Just returned from a trip to Playas del Coco and just wanted to give a glowing recommendation to Heiner, our waiter, and the chef and staff at Las Olas de Papagayo in downtown Playas del Coco. We had amazing dinners here, from mixed fajitas, to fish tacos to the fresh catch of Mahi Mahi cooked in their spicy mango sauce.... More

She had suffered a bit too much sun that day. She had ordered the grilled sea bass, which was excellent, but was not eating. The waiter... More

I really did. but I cannot do it. I ordered a fish ceviche and a garlic seafood platter. To check the value better I had nothing to drink. First the food: The ceviche was very fresh and fragrant but not nearly enough marinated, the fish still very tough and it was served with generic grocery store crackers and tabasco sauce!!!... More

We ate here on our first week in Coco. We had chicken and tenderloin fahitas....both very tasty and good. Service is excellent. The menu has a lot to chose from. We definitely would return here and recommend this restaurant. The only downfall was having spotlights shining in you.

We stumbled upon this gem & decided to try it since the menu listed the food prices about $15 to $18 cheaper than the other "recommended" places. What a find!! The food was simply spectacular from the seafood soup to the stuffed lobster (easily a $50-60 entree in the US) to the coconut cream pie (not your typical) with ice... More
