My husband and I came to Costa Rica for our honeymoon. We visited Z Gastro Bar and Z Poolside Bistro multiple times during our 5 day stay. We cannot say enough great things about Marita (Gastro) and Warner (poolside). They do an outstanding job at making you feel like family. One day we took a fishing trip out of the marina and brought fresh Mahi in. Marita took the Mahi and had a delicious meal prepared for us, without direction! We had delicious ceviche and the Mahi prepared 3 ways. If youâre coming to Costa Rica, this has to be a stop during your stay! We will be back.

We came here for my parentsâ 50th wedding anniversary, wanting to go somewhere a little different for our last night in Manuel Antonio.Everything was thoroughly enjoyable! The atmosphere is fun, feels more like a hipster bar than a raucous family restaurant. Our server Warner was super friendly and engaging, and, when he found out it was my parentsâ anniversary, he kept bringing us gifts throughout the meal.The first thing you notice after you sit down is the menu. Itâs chock full of descriptions and ingredients you wonât see in other restaurants in the area (heart of palm cheese?). All of our plates were delicious; Iâd especially recommend the chilled cucumber soup, the Caribe Atómico hamburger, and the tacos de atún.Theyâve only been in business for a short time, but Iâm hoping they do well by serving up a different experience for visitors to Manuel Antonio. Weâll certainly be back next time weâre in the area.

After looking at the menu of both Gabriella's and the Runaway Grill (Gabriella's is upstairs and Runaway Grill is downstairs in the same building) we opted for Gabriella's for the better seafood and pasta selections. And we were not disappointed.Advised on the food by our excellent waiter Dixon, who gave us great and attentive service, we had the wow-wow shrimp as appetizer (had the right amount of sweetness and spice). For main we had Salmon and Mahi-Mahi which were very delicious, and our kids enjoyed Gabriella's Balls pasta very much. For dessert we got a great fire show to prepare the Bananas Flambé, and it tasted just as good.The location is also nice as you have a beautiful view over the marina, and the Northwestern coast line. Nice and romantic in fact.The place isn't cheap but we felt it was well worth the money. A great place to have a special dinner. Thanks Dixon!

We took a group of our collaborators for lunch to the Market today. We had coordinated some details beforehand but definitely it was thanks to Priscilla's attention and amazing service that we had such a pleasant experience. The food was delicious, service was great, prompt, and super courteous. Even having a vegan person have her lunch BTO, everything was seamless. This has been a nightmare at other places but most certainly not here. Thanks Priscilla!Dear Adrian,We´re glad that you enjoyed the food and the service of The Market. Thanks for sharing your comments, your opinion it´s very important for us. Forward to welcome you soon.Best regards,Ricardo Menendez,General Manager.
