Restaurants in Puerto Jiménez

  1. Jade Luna

    A delectable dining experience, starting with the linen napkins and candlelit tables, and ending with tropical-flavored homemade ice cream. Not to gloss over what comes in between: the menu varies, but always features fresh Cajun-style fish and garlicky jumbo shrimp straight from the gulf, plus a host of appetizers and salads prepared with the freshest organic produce.

    Restaurant Carolina

    This is the hub in Puerto Jiménez. Expats, nature guides, tourists and locals all gather here for food, drinks and plenty of carousing. The food is famous locally and the fresh-fruit drinks and cold beers go down pretty easily on a hot day.

    Pollosa

    Pollosa is renowned among locals for juicy, delectable rotisserie chicken, but it also has a good selection of salads, sandwiches and spaghetti. Take-away is available, making this is an excellent option for picnicking.

    Il Giardino

    The specialties of the house at Il Giardino are homemade pasta and fresh seafood. Considering that you’re on the edge of the wilderness in a far-flung corner of Costa Rica, there is a fair measure of Italian authenticity here.

    Café La Onda

    A funky and eclectic travelers’ cafe that’s equally suited for chilling out or chatting up, la Onda sets the stage with homemade pastries accompanied by excellent coffees and fruit smoothies. While you’re a long way from Manhattan, bagels and deli items add a dash of cosmopolitanism to sleepy Port Jim.

    Pizza Rock

    Sizzling pizzas come straight out of the wood-burning oven and onto your plate at this informal, open-air diner. If you're heading to or coming back from Corcovado, a cheesy slice is exactly the kind of indulgence you're looking for.
