Delicious

Huge vegan menu, would give it 5* if I could! PB menu way bigger than the omni section. My non vegan partner thoroughly enjoyed his vegan nachos, and I had the creamy cashew pasta which was delicious

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Clearly marked, Big portions

Cons: On the more expensive side

Excellent tasty vegan choices

Had dinner here this evening - and what a treat! There’s a whole page of vegan options ranging from falafel dish to pasta. Fab smoothies and a great range of desserts.

Wow!

I would eat here three times a day every day. Exquisite food, service, ambiance, presentation, choices, food, smoothies, etc. Everything you could ever want from a healthy restaurant.

Pros: Vegan paradise

Cons: A little pricey but worth it, Too bad they serve non-vegan options as well..

Pros: Delicious Food, Friendly Staff, good coffee

Wonderful!

I had the garden salad and the tomato shakshuka. Both were an A . I am discerning about my salads. They have to be generous in size with lots of good ingredients- and this was. The cashew cheese was light and house made. Same with the dressing. Not too much salt or oil. Lots of flavor.

The shakshuka was full of flavor. Fresh tomatoes, peppers, tofu, and I think they were lentil balls (but I’m not sure) stuffed with light house made ricotta. (Very good - Not like the highly processed commercial vegan cheeses that are basically oil and salt). Delish!

It was a great surprise! So often these days I find “vegan frankenfood”. This was real food. I’d definitely come again.

Delicious Vegan Options!

Not only did this restaurant have great food, they also had a ton of vegan options! Most of the menu was devoted to vegan dishes, appetizers, smoothies, and drinks. The quinoa burger, veggie tacos, and falafel were all delicious and professionally arranged on a colorful platter. The vegan milkshake was amazing too! We went here two times it was so good! Definitely recommend for vegans traveling in Costa Rica.

Great earthy taste

Food was tasty and had an earthy feel to it. Definitely well made. Prices are average on the American side- and love that the juices/desserts are not overly sweet. Highly recommend employee Paola- she was absolutely FANTASTIC. I hope management can acknowledge her in some way. A good stop for vegan/veggie options in Fortuna!

Pros: Earthy taste, Healthy , Good options

good healthy food

We had the quinoa burger and the caprese sandwich. Both was delicious, tasted very authentic, filling and healthy. Some have said that they felt it wasn’t enough but we were both full afterwards.

Pros: clearly labeled vegan options

Cons: a little pricy

Great experience

I visited this place several times and I was always happy. Staff was great and really helpful when I asked them about gluten-free options so I definitely recommend this place for gluten-free veg people (they even have gf bread and pasta!)

Pros: So many gf veg options, Cozy , Delicious desserts

Overpriced and disappointing

This seems to be a tourist trap selling overpriced food with the 'organic' label. I was so disappointed. Maybe we just unlucky, but our caprese sandwich came with watery yellow liquid stuff they call 'cashew cheese' with tomato and lettuce in a roll for about $10 including tax. That mediocrity wouldn't fly in the US (I'm not American, but given they charge US prices they could at least provide US quality).

The quinoa burger came with the same boring fillings of just lettuce and tomato and possibly the thinnest burger patty I've ever come across and I've eaten vegan food in over 50 countries. This cost over $13 with tax. The beer was overpriced too. They get away with it because there isn't much competition serving vegan food in the area. The sushi place around the corner is 10x better.

Very overpriced

A bit expensive for the quality of food you get, its still good and has many vegan options, and of course the organic adds up. We had an arabic plate and cashew pasta, both were good but nothing crazy.

We went there for some sandwiches to go but they were very basic for $9 dollars, confirming our idea of it being overpriced

Amazing!!

This place is amazing, it’s pricier than other places in the area but it’s all organic and everything is so delicious. Worth the money! Vegan are spoilt for choice and lots of veggie options too. Smoothies are amazing.

Amazing!!

This restaurant is AMAZING. Really delicious, healthy vegan options and the staff is incredibly nice. You can tell the food is made with a lot of love. We loved the food and atmosphere here so much at dinner that we decided to come back for breakfast the next day. Definitely come here if you are vegan in Arenal!!

Delicious organic food

A few delicious options that we tried- including the nachos which are NOT hot nachos (not American style). They’re packed full of veggies, mostly cold, but good. Caprese sandwich was Incredible- great pesto flavor. The “creamy cashew pasta” was a little weird, it had a sweet flavor to it. Basically just spaghetti. Falafel sandwich was also decent but the bread was super thick, a lot going on there

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Yummy food & good service

I have eaten here a multitude of times. It is by far the best restaurant in downtown La Fortuna. The menu is full of excellent vegan and vegetarian options, the food is made with love and care, and the staff & atmosphere are amazing. If you don’t eat here while in La Fortuna, you are absolutely missing out.

Muchos platos veganos :)

Tienen una carta vegana muy amplia, da gusto poder elegir entre tantas opciones. Se nota que hacen los platos con esmero y amor y eso se traduce en el sabor. Pedí los spaghetti de calabacín (fresco y rico) y una guarnición de plátanos maduros (porque en CR siempre están buenísimos). Las patatas asadas vienen con una salsa muy buena. El brownie estaba increible, a mi es dificil que me guste, blandito calentito y con el borde un poco crujiente y no lleva frutos secos, justo como me gusta. Además el local es muy bonito, y el servicio atento.

El horario es de 12 a 21h. Por si alguien intenta ir a desayunar, aunque entiendo que va fluctuando por temas del covid.

Pros: Muchas opciones veganas, Platos elaborados , Local decorado con gusto

Cons: De los lugares más caros que he probado en CR
