We've been wanting to come here for years to eat fried chicken free of gluten and other allergens. Today we finally made it from La Fortuna, San Carlos. The chicken is spectacular, but the best part is the experience of being able to eat with peace of mind knowing we won't get sick. The prices are great. But you have to be careful because the portions are very large, so it's very easy to order much more food than necessary, although it's not a problem because you can always take it home 😆 Highly recommended for people with allergen problems. Thank you so much for the experience ❤️

After trying all the coffee in town, they definitely have the best drinks. Overall, little pricier than other places since they up-charge for dairy free alternatives and gluten free bread but it’s worth it. They have ~lots~ of gluten free options but they let me know they are not celiac friendly since it’s all made in the same kitchen. I am on the lower end (weak positive) of the tTG-IgA scale so I haven’t had many issues with minimal amounts of cross contamination, so if you are the same as me I highly recommend the almond flour coconut chocolate chip cake!

Stopped in for a late lunch (kitchen closes at 2 pm on Sundays) and the team squeezed our order in. Extremely gluten free friendly and the food was amazing. I got the Tuna tartar and a passion fruit mango smoothie and I’ll be going back tomorrow.

This place is a must-visit in Monteverde (even with the trek) don’t miss out!!! The food was INCREDIBLE!! It was also great because they were gluten-free friendly! We had the Senda Soup, Pork Chop, Beef Tenderloin and gluten free Churros for dessert and all of it was immaculate. We don’t have any notes, truly. 10/10 recommend for food alone, but on top of that, the service was incredible - very kind, funny and personable staff (Edwin was our server)! The atmosphere was lovely and relaxing and just all around great. The price is higher but it’s definitely worth it!

It is a hotel-restaurant. The setting is very relaxing and the service is attentive, kind and smiling. At lunchtime, we had the fish tacos: delicious! Of course, when it's busy, the service can be a little long, but we're on vacation... so we stay cool. In the evening, we enjoyed tuna with a red wine sauce, a very original combination. The restaurant also offers gluten-free breads, which is a real plus. And in the morning, what a pleasure to enjoy breakfast served facing the sea... an unforgettable experience!
