Beautiful jungle setting
Reviewed by donnamaeinkaty on Mar 19, 2010


We saved La Hacienda for our last evening in Manuel Antonio, and it was worth the wait! As other have mentioned, it doesn't look like much from the front, but once you step inside it's tranquil and beautiful. The restaurant looks out over a lush jungle scene that is tastefully lit. The service and food were excellent, and the portions were surprisingly generous. We started with seafood ceviche, and it was plenty for two to share. For our entrees, we both chose seafood...trout and mahi mahi. Both were wonderful. We saved a little room for dessert and shared bananas flambe. Great dining experience!

Great place!

Not only is the food great, the staff are the best! Try the whole red snapper and one of Fabian's martinis! The dessert menu is awesome as well. Atmosphere is perfect for any occassion.

Perfect setting for rehersal dinner, excellent taste and presentation of cuisine, impeccable service.

We were leary of having a rehersal dinner in a foreign country with an unfamilar restaraunt. The presentation and flavor of the cuisine were excellent. The courses were served on time and were flawless for each guest. The floral arrangements we had them order for us were large, fresh, tropical, and reasonably priced. The servers were attentive. The owners were honest, friendly, patient and paid attention to detailed. We did a power point of the couple that was displayed on the wall that was the size of a movie theatre. It was an opened air restaurant in the rain forest, yet there was no insects. We couldn't be more pleased with our selection of this restaurant.

LOVED La Hacienda and the Staff!

We were in Manuel Antonio to get married, so we had a large group of guests with us most of the trip. We had 20 guests at La Hacienda for dinner one night. The food, service and atmosphere were amazing! Costa Rica does not always have the best service, especially for a large group, but we were blown away here. And very reasonable prices too! If you're in MA... make sure to eat at La Hacienda!

There's a reason La Hacienda is numero uno, try it, you'll agree!

Absolutely delicious, great service from both the owners (retired, yeah ) and the staff. My kids loved it too! Great open air ambiance with very attentive service and our waiter also took the time to tutor and coach me in Spanish. I, of course asked for this service, he wasn't trying to correct me just improve my proper use. You can't go wrong and won't be disappointed at La Hacienda
