We took our eight year old girls to Cuna del Angels for their birthday on April 9. I called ahead to make a reservation and to request a special dessert for the girls. We had a very enjoyable meal. The sea bass with basil sauce was very good. Our fussy eater girls requested plain pasta with butter although one of... More

This restaurant is part of the hotel and overall it is definitely upscale with an varied menu. Even though the dining area is in the open it was very hot and it lacks good ventilation, also there is not much of a view, though overall the seating and dining area is very nice. The service was either too attentive, each... More

Went there twice during the past couple of weeks. The first time was 5+ stars, when asked by the waiter if we were sure we wanted regular tap water and we said yes, it was provided. The food and service were both outstanding. A bit pricey for the area but we knew that. The second time we went I would... More

International food with emphasis towards Italian. Excellent food, alike the service. The signature dishes are the desserts flambees - make sure you don´t skip one of those.

Our first night in Costa Rica was at Cuna Del Angel for dinner.....outstanding service, food and ambiance. The open air restaurant is comfortable and has a nice vibe. The menu is varied and extensive with everything we tried being delicious. The service as well was top notch. If in the area I highly recommend trying this restaurant.

Service, food and atmosphere as good as you will find anywhere. Although a bit pricey; you get what you pay for. Nuff said.

Awesome atmosphere, but service seemed disappointed I wasn't ordering bottles of wine to pad the tab. Maybe it was a bad night, I've had meals in the past there much better, but food all around was mediocre - even the $11 dollar soup. Not many real good options, but I won't be back anytime soon...

There are quite a few steps to get to the restaurant but the food, drinks, and sunset are worth it. We had a generous portion of fish with a lemon caper sauce that was terrific. The mojitos are large and tasty.

My husband and I visited the restaurant at Cuna del Angel three times during our month (January) in Dominical. We think their margaritas are the best in the area. The atmosphere is romantic; lighting is nice. They have a very nice lounge area ( seems underutilized) which we took advantage of for our drinks last night. The service is very... More

We had problems finding this place. The hotel and restaurant sign is only visible when travelling south on the highway, and even then it's positioned quite high up in the trees making it almost invisible at night. The menu is extensive, mostly in a gourmand Americana vein. The cooking is above average for the area, but for Europeans be warned... More
