Also recommended are Carpaccio di Manzo, the handmade Fettuccine, the gourmet pizzas and an ever-changing selection of fresh seafood pasta dishes utilizing the catch of the day.

Frequently Asked QUESTIONS
What is standard tipping practice in Costa Rica?
Costa Ricans are not strangers to the generous tippers from the United States, and in fact many depend upon it. Service industry workers such as drivers and guides are accustomed to receiving what their equals might receive in the US.
However, one notable exception is the Costa Rican restaurant. It in not uncommon to be automatically charged 10% for service and 13% for taxes at many restaurants in Costa Rica. Though some unknowingly tip 15% - 20% on top of this inflated amount, adding 10% for excellent service can be seen as both a gesture of generosity and understanding.
