We needed some Mexican food and heard this place had a buffet ($15 per person, kids were less). Needed to have a reservation the night we were there (possibly because it was reopening night of the season). We only had a reservation for half our group but Walt(?) accommodated us all. Enjoyable meal!

We read countless reviews on this place, I believe it is considered to be the #7th best place to eat in Tamarindo. This could not be FURTHER from the truth. To begin, the service. We were a group of four and there was already a couple there having a drink. We ordered four drinks and all ordered nachos. It took roughly 10-15 minutes just to get our drinks. The drinks were so bad we could not even finish them. When one person in our group asked for a new drink since theirs was undrinkable the service responded in a rude manor. We all ordered chicken nachos. They were covered with a mountain of nachos. There was an extremely small amount of chicken, beans, and cheese. 90% of the nachos was pico. The entire experience was weird. The place looks filthy and bugs flew all over us during our entire meal. I would say Iâm not sure why there are hundred of positive reviews we were completely dumbfounded when we showed up.

Had the great pleasure of staying 5 days at the Hotel and ate breakfast here each morning and two evening meals. Wonderful balcony dining... across from the surf and a pretty, mostly deserted beach. Staff were wonderful, food was excellent ( you must try their seafood soup) and prices very reasonable. Very highly recommended.

My wife and I have hung out there numerous times and itâs 5 stars every time. Weâre from Oregon so our beer tastes require something a bit more dank and this place has it. Yes.. they have IPAâs. They have fresh cut sweet potato fries and normal fries I havenât really found in Tamarindo before that are fantastic. If your into watching sports itâs your place too. The owner is super social and you can tell he knows how to run a restaurant. Just an all around great place in the heart of Tamarindo. Highly recommended!!

I love the vibe of the spot. Very chill and relax. I went with my husband but they def have seating for large parties. The empanadas was not impressive. I had the chicken Casado that was seasoned well and the salad more like a vinegar based coleslaw was refreshing.

At the Crazy Monkey Bar and Restaurant we offer a wide variety of food for a great price. You can have a drink at our beautiful swim-up bar and stay for dinner while enjoying the amazing sunset view! Located inside Best Western Tamarindo Vista Villas.

First and foremost, I would like to thank Jennifer and the other young lady at the Front Desk. We owe her and the entire hotel staff extreme debt of gratitude. My partner and I were staying at a local, all inclusive, paid in full week-long resort down the road. We were having such a horrible experience we decided to check out of the resort early. To make the story short, (review in this case) we ended up here and everyone was so delightful and nice. The cleanliness of the hotel and service were great, attentive. The bartenders are very nice at the restaurant and bar, especially in the mornings.I was sitting at the bar one evening and noticed how disrespectful most of the american tourists were. However, I did also notice the bartenders at night are completely different and know how to handle the crowd.Overall, I respected the fact that when you check-in the first thing they tell you is ***caution Friday's there's ladies night***

We were happy to find a place we could grab and take it back to our house. We tried 3 different burgers and the chicken tacos. I highly recommend the burger with mushrooms. We all liked our food.

There is so much to say but I will never be able to find enough words to convey how much we LOVED Rip Jack Inn and their restaurant. We ate 85% of our meals here (the other 15% was when we were exploring) and never once had a bad meal. We were able to try almost every dinner option. My favorite was the Mahi Mahi and my boyfriends favorite was the Hot Garlic Shrimp. Everything is SO fresh. So tasty. And the combinations are incredible. It not only has the best food we experienced during our trip but it also has the best waiters. We became very close with Ermesto and Manrique...so much that we were greeted by our first names after the second day of being there. And Ermesto shared his NCAA bracket with us, all chuckling about our choices. We literally wanted to bring Ermesto back to the states with us. He's the best. They both knew what we wanted to drink before we even ordered. It became our home for the week and they all made us feel like family. It will be VERY hard to travel to Costa Rica again and not stay at Rip Jack. We feel like we would never have as good of an experience as we had there. Hats off to all the cooks/bartenders and servers. You were all amazing. But Ermesto and Manrique were definitely very special to us. Eat here. Stay here. Love it here, like we did.Yeah! We will pass this on to Ernesto, Manrique and the rest of the team. Making our guests feel like family is what we're all about!Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience and we are thrilled you loved the food as much as we do!
