Bags are (mostly) packed and we're ready to go! Does anyone have any restaurant recommendations for Manuel Antonio and/or Tamarindo that you would care to share? Any price, any cuisine as long as you thought it was tasty. We won't have a car so can't go too far from Si Como No and Capitan Suizo, respectively.
I know there will be some great suggestions! Thanks for any responses. My tummy is grumbling in anticipation...

Suizo was pretty good in Tamarindo

www.tripadvisor.com has food reviews/ranking might check there

Well, it's been a couple of years, but we liked Ronnie's Place/Mi Lugar, Salsipuedes, Cafe Agua Azul, Cafe Milagro, and Barba Roja in MA.

I liked Ronnie's Place too. Fun casual atmosphere, great food and wonderful sunset. Taxi's aren't too bad cost wise.

as for manuel antonio la avion is a pretty cool restaurant,made out of an old airplane,it has an interesting story.a little spendy but it was cool.the best food we got in the area was el gran escape in quepos,taxi ride from la colina,a couple miles from si como no,wasn't very expensive

Don't worry about not having a car; Ronnie's place was a little far away, and our taxi was only about 5 bucks to get there. Go early to enjoy the sunsets and enjoy some sangria.

Manuel Antonio: We went to Cafe Milagro. They have two locations - one near the road to Hotel Parador and one in the downtown area. It was listed in one of our tour books as a budget gem (or a something like that). We had lunch and enjoyed it. I had a veggie wrap and my DH had a hamburger and fries. We also bought bags of coffee as gifts.

They also have really good coffee shakes. Nice to have those when it's so hot outside.
