We have eaten in Abbocato many times, and have never been disappointed. But lunch today was a new high. We shared a lovely seafood plate as a starter, tasty little vongole, a generous portion of tuna carpaccio, six or seven grilled shrimp and a very nice coquille. This all came with a fresh green salad. What a great appetizer. Then... More

Now, the view was amazing, the service very nice (although there may have been a little too much hovering). But this restaurant is not even near the other good restaurants I have tried. Everything was very expensive. Too expensive. No free nothing, no bread, not even peanuts as a little snack to start. Get ready to shed at least $100... More

Andrea and Paola, hosts and chefs welcomed us to an amazing dining experience to celebrate the wedding of our daughter and son in law. Aside from the amamzing locaction and view....a must do is having drinks outside by the infinity pool! The food here is definitely 5 star....Exquisitely prepared, plated and served. Each course was a picture! Textures, tastes and... More

We were lucky enough to get a reservation at this absolutely beautiful restaurant. Driving up the driveway starts your experience and this journey takes you to many different levels of complete bliss. it is obvious that the owners Paola & Andrea put 200% into this jewel, and then some. We were blessed to have an early seating and had the... More

My sister moved to Costa Rica last fall and she mentioned I should go here. Best recommendation ever. I'm not a fish person but I ordered the Mahi Mahi because it's actually fresh and it was incredible. See the pictures but the plate was around $14. My friend and I got a beer, two Mahi plates and two desserts for... More

Our best meal on our recent trip to Papagayo Peninsula was at Abbocato. Our group of 8 had drinks on the lovely outside terrace as we watched the sunset over the water. The view is just gorgeous. The restaurant is in a lovely intimate room. The chef owner (a former chef at the Four Seasons' Italian restaurant) and his wife... More

This was my second visit to Abbocato. The first was in their original spot last year and just recently in the newer location. Once again, it did not disappoint. I highly recommend this restaurant. Not only are the owners so so lovely, the food is beautifully prepared, fresh and just delicious. You do not have to get the price fixe... More
