Diner notes
5 out of 5
What a delightful find Gustitos Criollos has been! We first stopped by for a snack and tried their maduros with nata- a perfect treat with a stunning lake view. The place is spotlessly clean and welcoming. Our second visit for lunch we tried their Casados- I had the beef while my husband enjoyed the fish option. The food is authentic local cuisine prepared with care and cleanliness. What truly sets this place apart is the wonderful service. The lady who works there (possibly the owner) remembered our preferences from our previous visit and was incredibly attentive and kind. For delicious typical Tico food served with heart and a beautiful view, Gustitos Criollos is a must-visit!

Great spot on our drive to the coast. Food was delicious and good portions. We have a toddler who ate all his as well. Amazing views and so nice to have hummingbirds!

Stopped in for lunch while exploring an extended stay for next year. The warmth of the owner of Gustitos Criollos won us over. The place is super clean, the food was delicious and the view was spectacular. We will spend three months here and enjoy this restaurant more often.

Tell us what you ordered and what it cost. Two or three sentences about one dish is more useful to the next person than a star rating.
