So.
Service was AMAZING.
You have amazing staff here for servers.
The atmosphere — awesome. Love the vibe and the setup and the location and just the whole design.
Concept — love it, different cuisines in one location, awesome.
The food was below average.
Fix the food and you have a 5 star establishment here.
The service and atmosphere allow you to charge premium prices (ie, $20 for a pad see ew, $15 for a roll of sushi)
But the food was pretty bad.
The pad see ew was below average.
The sushi was well below average.
For $50 for a LITE meal for 2 in Costa Rica, it’s gotta be good quality food.
Fix that and you have yourself a 5 star spot.
This review is mostly for the owner.
Oh yeah, we also LOVED all the gluten free options and loved
The gluten free pita and our server, the young gentlemen’s who’s name escapes me, did an AMAZING job and was very attentive (which is not always the case in CR lol)
Fix the food and you’ll be the top spot in Monteverde and the reviews will ALL reflect it!

The service is amazing, I've rarely met such friendly waiters. It's really fun to come here, the waiters exude Pura Vida. The food is super delicious and the smoothies are also highly recommended. When we travel, we are always looking for a restaurant where you can eat well gluten-free and which is suitable for people with celiac disease - this restaurant is perfect for that. They know their stuff very well and clean everything beforehand so that there is no cross-contamination. Highly recommended.
Thank you dear team ✨🙏🏼🌮

I ate a gluten-free pizza which costs an extra 3500 CRC but was delicious. I ask for contamination. They said, they cook it in the same oven, but they’ll clean the tray and everything. So I ate it and had no symptoms afterwards. It also came on a wooden plate, which is also a contamination risk, but for me it was fine that day. Maybe they use these plates only for the gluten-free pizzas.
The staff was really friendly and explained everything with patience.

Relaxed, fast casual environment. Straightforward menu with typical Mediterranean options. The food was okay— nothing to rave about. I have dietary preferences, so I avoided the pita bread and fries due to gluten intolerance. The build your own salad bar was awesome. The ingredients were fresh, but none of the sauces tasted appetizing. The others in my party thought the hummus tasted pretty flavorless. The chicken was a solid 6.5/10– nothing special. The atmosphere was good, though— a great place to have a laid back dinner or lunch.

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!

Nice people who speak great English. Super fast delivery! But the food was not great. We ordered pizzas, some regular ones and some gluten-free/vegan ones.
