Such a cute restaurant off the beach with a great selection of food and drinks! Able to accommodate gluten free really well. Plenty of space for kids to run and play too. Definitely recommend the fresh fish tacos!

essen ok, Bedienung total unfreundlich.Es waren keine einzigen Gäste im Restaurant und sie haben eine Spielecke. Unser Sohn hat ein Spielzeug uns am Tisch gezeigt und mitgenommen. Sofort kam das Servicepersonal und hat in einem unfreundlichen Ton gesagt keine Spielzeuge hier.An einem anderen Tag wollten wir an einem Tisch sitzen, der gut mit Ventilator ausgestattet war und im Schatten lag. Die Bedienung sagte es sei nicht erlaubt an einem 4er Tisch zu dritt zu sitzen. Es waren generell viele grosse Tische noch frei.Wir haben ein Cappuccino mit Eis bestellt. Es kam ein gezuckertes Cappuccino. Ich habe kein Zucker bestellt. Danach haben sie gesagt sie haben nur gezuckertes Cappuccino. Letztes Mal hatte ich jedoch ein normales Cappuccino erhalten ohne Zucker. Weiter haben wir nach einem Frisch gepressten Orangensaft gefragt, sie meinten sie haben dies nicht. Danach fragten wir nach frischem Ananassaft und es kam ein gezuckertes Fertigprodukt.

Cafe Mar Azul is always busy and rightfully so. Everything on the menu is outstanding, right down to the home made desserts. You MUST try the cheesecake and Key Lime Pie. The service is outstanding. Victor, Jason, Jeremy and Jorge, in the evening are fantastic, engaging and fun to be around. The ladies that work during the day, Grace and Tracey are outstanding as well, theyvalways have smiles on their faces and provide exceptional service.The kitchen staff are wonderful, they are always working so hard to ensure the food is fresh, hot and delicious.On Wednesday and Sundays is live music, but be sure to make a reservation as they fill up fast!Great place, great people and great food make this restaurant worth coming back to over and over again.

Cool spot and the food was really good. Service was also very good. We made a reservation ahead of time. There is also a place for kids to play which is helpful.We did notice almost all tables said reserved. We overheard them turning people away and saying large groups were coming in, but then allowing others to just show up and seat them. No large groups came in.Not sure what their strategy is with that but maybe it’s to always have something available for their regulars.I would just make a reservation if it’s important for you to eat there.We would definitely return.

Delicious food, great drinks, great service, and all this being attached to a surf hostile on a small beach in Costa Rica.

We just ate dinner at this restaurant tonight, based on proximity to where we are staying as well as the reviews. We were disappointed overall.Pros: The staff was accommodating to seat us despite most (all) tables in the restaurant having reserved signs on them. Also the food was quick to arrive.Cons: We ordered onion rings to start, which never came, with no explanation, and no one came to our table to see how things were so we didn’t have a chance to ask about them. My husband and I each ordered a margarita, but I didn’t end up drinking mine because it tasted like it had been made with Tang mix. I ordered the tuna with lime & capers special, which came absolutely smothered in a cream sauce that was never mentioned, so I did not end up eating it. The kids’ meals were fine though small portioned. My husband’s meal of tuna teriyaki was overall good though a bit too salty for his taste, which is saying something as he is a big fan of salt normally.

Best food, atmosphere and staff in the area! Grace and Tracy in the day serve up delicious breakfasts and lunches. Victor and Jason bring out the best dinners with Jorge mixing up delicious drinks to go with! The kitchen staff never disappoints as every meal we had in our month long stay in the area was exceptional.

My fiancé (now husband) and I hosted our friends and family for our wedding just down the beach and it was great to have Cafe Mar Azul within walking distance of our accommodations. Breakfast most days and occasional lunch or dinner for 36 people and they all raved about their experience at Cafe Mar Azul! The staff were so accommodating and friendly. Tracy and Grace took the time to get to know us and were so lovely!FYI - The breakfast tacos and a the banana French toast were two favorite dishes of mine.

Wonderful breakfast and great selection! The banana pancakes, skillet breakfast, and casadias ? were delicious. Especially watching the kitty, 🐈‍⬛ Uni, was a treat. Tracy and Grace were wonderful servers, very welcoming and polite.

We’ve been coming down to Playa Grande for a dozen years now and some of our favorite memories have been made while breakfasting and suppering at Cafe Mar Azul! The food is always fresh and delicious, you can taste the love; everyone makes you feel like family. The atmosphere is the most perfect rustic beach cafe: casual, kicked-back, but also a really well-run efficient business — even at their busiest hour nobody waits long for a meal or a round of drinks. And lucky us, we’re all coming back in two weeks!!
