The best restaurants Southeastern Cordilleras

Chez Miriam is a very popular soda shop for the locals, and we understand why! The food is simply delicious. On the way down to San Gerardo de Dota, the establishment is located in a small house with windows to the outside. In the back, a large balcony overlooks the valley and allows you to watch the birds. We even saw a quetzal that day! The casado and the trout filet a la plancha, the specialties of the house, are excellent. Miriam and her daughter Anna will give you a warm welcome.

As its name suggests, at Alma de Arbol, we want to share with you the soul of the village, the soul of the Tree. A friendly café-restaurant with a modern and refined decoration. It is a very pleasant stop for lunch or dinner. On the menu, a mix of Costa Rican and Western cuisine with pasta, hamburgers and pizzas. The plates are nicely laid out and the food is good. The owners also have the Batsu garden, located just above, where you can spend half a day observing the local flora and fauna.

La Parilla de Pepe welcomes you in a traditional chalet with a beautiful view of the village of San Vito, which you can admire from the room or from the terrace. This is the second restaurant of the name. The first one is located on the road to Ciudad Neily and also has an exceptional view, this time of the Osa Peninsula and the Gulf of Dulce. A gourmet address very popular with the locals, which succeeds in the risky bet of mixing seafood dishes, pizzas and steakhouse. The specialty of the place: chicken parilla.
