Restaurants in Península De Osa & Golfo Dulce

  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.

    Restaurante Buenos Días

    Rare is the visitor who passes through Golfito without stopping at this cheerful spot opposite the Muellecito. Brightly colored booths, bilingual menus and super convenient location ensure a constant stream of guests - whether for an early breakfast, a typical Tico casado or a good old-fashioned burger.

  4. Rancho Grande

    About 3km south of Golfito, this rustic, thatch-roof place serves country-style Tico food cooked over a wood stove. Margarita, the Tica owner, is famous for her patacones (fried plantain chips). Her hours are erratic, so stop in during the day to let her know you're coming for dinner.

    Restaurant Hai Pin

    When you tire of gallo pinto, you can change it up with some Chinese food. This popular open-air restaurant enjoys views of the main drag, which certainly offers up some interesting people-watching given the nature of the town.

    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.

    Casa Roland Marina Restaurant

    The main restaurant at the Casa Roland Marina Resort isn’t particularly inventive, but it does justice to the classics. Steaks and seafood are an excellent bet, as are pizzas, pastas and lighter salads.

    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.
