We ate there for 4 of the 6 days we were in CR. Loved it. The food portions are huge and the drinks are just right. Live music is great as well. Not to mention the view.

We stayed in Manuel Antonio for 2 weeks. We ate here 3 times. My first meal was ok. They have since changed their menu and that item was no longer there. One night I had a burger. It was fantastic. Service is spot on. William, our waiter the first time, even recognized us when we went back in the 2nd... More

We just missed sunset by 10 minutes, but what a view! This restaurant was recommended by our hotel. Chico, our waiter, took great care of us. Two of us had the mahi-mahi which was delicious. One of us ordered the burger. Our waiter said it's the best burger in town. He was right. It was huge and tasty. We weren't... More

Had an awesome burger here in May. They also had a guy playing classic rock who was very good. Definitely worth a visit if you're hanging out in Manual Antonio.

Service was great and nice open air feel. Live music was great. We had the shrimp and it was so-so. We had 2 sushi rolls - if you're picky about sushi, don't get sushi here. I wouldn't go back.

We went to Barba Roja the last night of our trip to celebrate. The food was AMAZING! For $20 I had the red salmon and a drink from the bar. I really can't say it enough, the food is delicious! There were four in our group and every single person agreed this was the best meal of the trip. The... More

Title says it all! One of the best sunset views in Manuel Antonio. Busy on the live music nights. Definitely just a fun place to hang out.

We enjoyed the 2 for 1 burger special - huge, good burgers. Chocolate cake was a perfect ending to our meal. We enjoyed the atmosphere and band.

We had a great table for lunch that overlooked the ocean in this outdoor restaurant/bar. My fiancé ordered a burger and it was probably as big as her head. I ordered the ribeye sandwich and ended up eating just the meat and left the bun behind, otherwise; I would not have even come close to eating what was on my... More
