Amazing tofu saltado

The vegetarian section of the menu is quite extensive here and although vegan items aren't marked the staff are so so helpful, explaining all the vegan options.

I was recommended the tofu saltado by my waiter; he said it was the best and he was 100% right! It was so full of flavour.

Pros: Extensive veggie menu, Friendly, knowledgeable staff

Cons: Vegan items not marked on menu

Good veggie options

We had delicious vegetarian food here during our visit in Feb 2020. Service is a little slow, but they understand vegan and veggie food, so a definite must-try place.

super interesting mix of Peruvian/Chinese food!

We stumbled upon this location while walking through La Fortuna and saw that it was definitely a hot spot so decided to try it! They were able to make nearly every dish vegan so that was amazing since they are not fully vegan. It isn't the "healthiest" but it certainly satisfies that chinese food craving😄staff was lovely as well!

Pros: Many vegan options!, Super friendly staff!, Yummiest smoothies!

Cons: Not fully vegan, womp.

Definitely worth a stop!

Delicious food and really nice staff, lots of vegan options. My non-vegan girlfriend ate vegan with me and we both really enjoyed every dish, highly recommend. Delicious tofu stir fry!

Great service and a lot of vegan options!

The service at the restaurant is super friendly and helpful. If you tell them that you are vegan they will suggest you all the vegan options at the restaurant and even make a vegan version of the non-vegan meals.

Would definitely recommend this place!

Tofuuu

This is the only place in town that I’ve found that serves tofu! They have several vegan options all are really good, portions are decent but on the small end, get an appetizer. The owner is a well educated chef and super friendly and helpful. Speaks english well too.

Pros: Only tofu in town, Great flavors, Great service

Probably best vegan option in town

Went there for dinner, had the yuca with quinoa starter, and the tofu salteado for main. Super tasty and amazing service! They make great pisco sours too (without the egg white)

Refreshingly global

We ordered multiple dishes with tofu noodles and vegetables. Food was outstanding and brimming with flavor. Chef cooks behind a glass door and you can feel part of the cooking experience. Superb flavors.

Pros: Lots of vegetarian and vegan options, Brimming with flavor , Best food we had in Costa Rica in past week

Fantastic Find

Excellent food with a Peruvian flair. Needed a break from the Tico typical fare. Our server was very knowledgeable concerning vegan diets. He warned us that the wan ton and noodle dishes contained egg in the pasta. There are clearly labeled vegetarian dishes that can easily be made vegan. We enjoyed the Taco Tacu and Taco Soldano - both contained tofu. We split the cassava appetizer that could have been a meal you itself. We also enjoyed a lovely organic Chardonnay. Highly recommend. Service was very attentive. Bathroom clean.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Informed server, Very fresh

Cons: None

Good food and friendly service

We informed the staff that we were vegan upon arrival, and the chef came out and spoke with us about options. We asked for recommendations, and he suggested the yucca with quinoa dish and the tofu dish. Both dishes were delicious on their own and as the chef suggested, they complimented each other well. Price was also reasonable for the quality of food. The two dishes wish bottled water came out to be ~1200 colons.

Great food, great chef, good people

Amazing! Chef came to say to the table, made one of our Peruvian favorites, that was not on the menu, played around and made a vegan version just for us! Not only that but was incredible.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Big plates, Great prices

Delicious and HUGE portions

This was such a great place to visit! We came on a Thursday at around 2pm and it was very quiet. Our food was cooked to order quickly. We ordered: Tofu Saltado, Kam Lu Wantan Vegetariano and for our daughter a starter (yucca fries). The portions were gigantic! The overall winner for me was the Kam Lu Wantan, which was absolutely delicious, I loved the sweet and sour sauce and pineapple in it. When we visited the lady was really lovely but Spanish was needed (google translate will work fine for getting your needs met if your Spanish is poor like mine!). The menu had lots of information about what was in the foods on it so that will help with some dietary requirements. They were very happy to help modify foods though! Another thing to note is the card reader wasn’t working when we visited... could have been fluke but maybe ensure you have cash just in case. Total cost for our meal was 15,950.00 so I thought that was pretty good considering how full we all were! A previous reviewer said the vegetarian options were all vegan, the menu was certainly very clear about what was in the items, but I had a feeling the vegetable rice that came with the Kam Lu Wantan possibly had egg in it. Might have been paranoia, but just check with the waitress when you order :)

Pros: Massive portions, Delicious food

Cons: You need to know some basic Spanish to order , Check your vegetable rice doesn’t have egg in it!

Delicious!

Vegetarian section is fully vegan. We had the yucca dish for starters but it was huge and could be eaten as a main dish. There were two tofu main dishes that we got and shared. Delicious place that we will be going to again before we leave la Fortuna

Fresh and tasty

The menu has alot of options and certain ingredients are well indicated (gluten, eggs, etc) so it helps when choosing a meal. We had the veggie fried rice without the egg and the veggie plancha and they were both amazing!! Service was pleasant and surprisingly quick! They offer half and full portions but suggest a half portion for one person.

Pros: Good and detailed menu, Help with choosing vegan options

Great vegan meal for the whole family

We were getting tired of rice and beans during our trip to Costa Rica so we decided to give Chifa La Familia Feliz a try based on the great reviews. It was fantastic. The chef came out and talked to us and went through the menu to point out vegan options. Really fresh and delicious food and even something for the little ones (yummy stir-fried noodles and tofu). Our only regret is that we wished we had more time to eat here again!

Pros: Good selection, If you go off hours it's easy to get a table
