Tico bowl

I tried the tico bowl and it’s sooooo good and the view is the best one! Really cool and chill place. The lemonade is amazing too.

Amazing vegan food with incredible view

The vegan food at this place is a great example of simple food ingredients that can combine to be some of the best food, which can be enjoyed with an amazing view of Arenal volcano. Really glad we stumbled on this place. If you are vegan, make time to experience this place. It’s unique, memorable, and absolutely delicious.

Burrito with a view

I thought the burrito was great. I can't remember what all was in it, but it was very filling. Rice, beans, plantains, avocado...

I also had a mixed fruit smoothie which was fresh and delicious. And the views are outstanding.

Yummy vegan burrito

Really tasty and large vegan burrito! The service was pretty slow but worth the wait for us and we weren’t in a rush.

Pros: Nice setting , Friendly owner

Cons: Slow service , Could be more vegan options

Amazing restaurant

This place is great! Really trendy and the view of the Arenal from the restaurant is itself already worth the visit. Vegan options are available and clearly marked in the menu. I had the burrito and it was so good, very tasty and filling! Staff is really friendly and the price is fair. Definitely recommended!

Eat the Burrito!

Ate the vegan burrito here twice. It has plenty of avocado and plantain in it, and the tortilla is seared to perfection. The fresh fruit drinks are also great. Amazing view of Arenal Volcano and the lake. Great service. Clean bathrooms. Good music. Mucho motorcycles.

As far as I can tell, there are only a few vegan items (we also had a bowl and the French fries), but the burritos and fresh drinks are well worth the visit.

NOTE: The new location of the restaurant is farther up the road than the map suggests. It's right after the Arenal Eco Zoo and before the Butterfly Conservatory. (I've sent an update to Happycow, so perhaps the location will be corrected to its actual position.)

Muy Rico!!

A very nice little place with a great deal. Delicious vegan options of burritos and quesadillas. Too bad we discovered it late because it is a place that you really want to repeat. Do not miss it!!!

Pros: Delicious , Great quality-price

Delicious vegan burrito!

A pleasant surprise! We’ve been back twice already. My partner is a meat eater and he is similarly impressed.

Muy Bien

Very good place relative to the surrounding options (i.e essence areana). Food is tastier and more filling than both breakfast and lunch at the veggie hostel, on par with the dinner there. Prices are reasonable. Kelly the owner is originally from Cali and speaks perfect English. He is willing to customize orders so there are many vegan variations. Highly recommend.

Pros: Tasty, Reasonable price, Best in area

Cons: Might have to ask for the grill to be veganized
