    We had a wonderful meal on our first night in Costa Rica after an arduous and long day of travel. It was perfect. Truly delicious food , especially the paella, and relaxed, welcoming ambience. The views are also amazing. We will definitely return.

    Hands down the best restaurant experience in Nosara and possible in Central America. Location atop a hill overlooking the bay is amazing at sunset. The service staff is friendly and professional. Ambiance is cool without it trying too hard. Has the feel of a well worn glove. The fried lobster starter i thought would be over cooked but was perfect. So was the tomatoes and apple an unusually good combination of flavors. The pork ribs entree with tamale was a deconstructed tamale and it actually worked. Desserts don’t seem to be a CR strength. Was ok. My second time this week and 5th time in 3 years. And I keep wanting to find my way back. Keep it up. You are worthy of a Michelin.

    We loved our dinner at Huacas. Service was amazing. We ordered the tuna and the lobster appetizer which was delicious. Our mains were the gnocchi and the paella which were very good as well. Highly recommend!

    Lobster morsels were way too deep fried. Tiny snapper tapas were bland and over cooked. Tasting menu had no taste. Desert was terrible whatever it was in an odd cup. Waiter was fine. Total rip off price.
