Delicious, genuine authentic Costa Rican Cuisine! Avocado tostada with black bean and the best rice I’ve ever had! This rice was perfect! I could not eat my salad , no room left! Scott enjoyed the recommendation of chicken and rice with black beans, and yucca!!

First time trying Costa Rican cuisine and we absolutely loved it. We ordered Arroz con Camarones and the empanadas. Loved the rice so much, ordered it as a side too.

This was our first time trying Costa Rican food, and it did not disappoint! The waitresses were incredibly friendly, attentive, and informative. They offered great recommendations to help us experience the most authentic dishes—and everything was absolutely delicious! We started with chips and guacamole—the chips were homemade, and the guac was fresh and flavorful. For our main dishes, my husband had the Arroz con Pollo, and I ordered the Carne en Salsa. Both meals were bursting with flavor, made with fresh ingredients, and had that comforting, home-cooked feel. Overall, the food, service, and atmosphere were a solid 10/10. If we ever find ourselves back in Bonita Springs, we’d return in a heartbeat!

The food is absolutely delicious. Everything is made fresh. Had the guac n chips (chips were fresh and hot) and the tostadas are so yummy. Had one chicken and one beef w pico and sour cream on the side. Went all the way with the Tres Leches cake. All around yummy and fresh and owner comes to your table and takes great care of every customer. Just a GEM in Bonita Springs

Second time here and it was just as good (if not better) than the first time. The food is tasty and has an authentic flavor to it. Pictured is the carne en salsa and it was delicious! The service is always genuine and very friendly. The place itself is clean and well-decorated with Costa Rican influence.
