It was a great recommendation from a local when we asked about options for eating Costa Rican dishes in a mostly international cuisine environment, the service and the atmosphere are great. Their octopus ceviche was amazing, if you're in the area give them a try, if you fly to Nosara make it your first place to visit, they are located right next to the airport.

This place was just down the road from our accommodation and boasted a local atmosphere. The service, especially from Gerson and Juan, was friendly and welcoming. We probably stopped by there everyday to grab a bite or a smoothie. We got a sense of joy when we would arrived each time to be greeted with familiarity and smiles! PuraVida indeed!!

Great spot! They have nice outdoor seating area that’s breezy and comfortable. I came here for breakfast and got the breakfast burrito which was amazing also their orange juice is so good!

The 2 for the price of 1 cocktails were fruity and boozy and the "chips" with guacamole were actually french fries and not tortilla chips as we were expecting but still yummy with the garlicky guacamole.The lobster special was humungous. I was expecting one lobster but was served two and they were buttery and delicious. The mashed potatoes and cooked vegetables were also well seasoned.Great to have a vegetarian/vegan option that was not a "Beyond Meat" burger patty. My husband ordered the vegan burger (portabello mushroom) which came on a nice bun and with a flavourful side salad.The only down side of our experience was that the running water was not working in the taps outside the washrooms so the server put out a big bowl of water for people to wash their hands. Very friendly service and reasonable prices compared to other restaurants with similar menu items. Would highly recommend this place.

Delicious every time. We visit once per week and haven’t had a bad experience yet. Great staff, tasty food, awesome drinks and attentive staff. The entertainment is always great, especially watching the planes come and go.

Beautiful restaurant with great food/drinks. We brought fresh mahi and tuna, and the chef made delicious sashimi and grilled fish.

Best food at the best price in Nosara, in my humble opinion. Had 3 different things on different days and all were delicious. Incredible value, not to be missed.
