    Staff is excellent. View is the best in the entire area. Worth every penny! But ask what the “drink special” price is. Don’t be sticker shocked like I was when I got the bill.

    Amazing views, great service and good food! Highly recommend! We sat in the restaurant but wished we would have booked the sunset experience instead. It’s a great reason to come back during our next trip to Costa Rica!

    Tienen una vista espectacular para ver el atardecer, pero lo complementa el servicio, la comida y la arquitectura del restaurante ya que ambos estan a la altura. Recomiendo que reserven las mesas al aire libre. Tienen opciones veganas / vegetarianas. Deben probar limonada de la casa, plato de quesos, el dúo de berenjenas y el domo de piña de postre Tienen acceso para silla de ruedas. Ofrecen servicio de valet parking Tener en cuenta que la calle publica para llegar al restaurante a pesar que esta asfaltada, se encuentra en mal estado.Manejar con precaución.

    If you’d like to book an amazing sense experience book it early you’ll find this view from anywhere else for the sunset book 530 to 6 PM. Kudos to the architect and a designer. Oscar V .

    Lugar meravilloso, servicio muy bueno. La calidad de la comida no está como me esperaba. Me explico mejor, para los precios la calidad no es suficiente.
