Anna SzypkowskaJanuary 7, 2020Perfect place for sunsets! Nice vibes, good cocktails and delish food. What else to wish for..
- Colm LinehanJanuary 26, 2015Good bar, with decent food, and an actual C-123 from the Iran-Contra scandal built in. Check out the history in the link. Good view of the Pacific. Read more
Hana JaníčkováJanuary 8, 2019Amazing sunset ! The prices are reasonable. The service there is nice and kind. I would recommend it ! Nice idea with plane, it makes place much more interesting.
Derek WatsonJuly 17, 2023Fantastic venue, the plane is brilliant and food is excellent with many vegan options. Try the Amber IPA or the Pineapple Daquiri
Elisabeth LaMotteMay 18, 2016I really enjoyed the chicken and rice. The restaurant has the most views to look at while you're dining. We even saw a sloth hanging in a nearby tree.
Nicky ZintchenkoSeptember 20, 2015Great food at really affordable prices! The view and the theme is worth the trip on it's own
Adnan ManjalApril 1, 2015Great food. Always go with local seafood. Coconut shrimp is fantastic. Teriyaki mango sauce is lovely. Vino is barely decent. Recommended.
Bethanie CundyJune 29, 2016Was so amazing! Had grey mint frozen lemonade and the view is something else! And we were joined by a couple sloths
RalphOctober 4, 2010The best restaurant we've seen in CR so far! These guys know what service is about, unlike most other costa ricans. Great ambiance as well. Loved it and highly recommend it! They made our evening!
John StefchakDecember 7, 2013Make sure you try the blackened chicken fingers to start. Great price on Flor de Cana rum. Went here 2 nights in a row because the food was so great!
Figan EsmailDecember 20, 2020Service is good, food also try the ceviche or the mahi mahi, perfect place to watch the sunset
Victoria U.July 11, 2017The service is lovely and the food is serviceable. The views are the best part!
Krīī QsFebruary 6, 2017Normal Place, kinda regular!... the chicken sandwitch is not too good... But the Sea view is too cool, perfect for the Sunset.
Manuel Cabalceta MéndezMarch 18, 2017Great sunset views and great staff, tasty food and nice selection of cocktails...
Kirt PulaskiJune 4, 2014See if the corner table is available. They save it for special guests, but they don't define what that is, so you could just get lucky.
Nataliya VasylivnaJune 27, 2017Seafood soup was amazing, nice oceanview...overall very good, but a little overpriced.
Alejandra QuesadaJanuary 26, 2012The mahi mahi on black peper it's good but spicy and it's a big porcion so make sure u are hungry :P
Monica CDecember 19, 2015We went at night so there wasn't a view. The plane they have outside is pretty cool but the food is kinda pricey.
Koorosh OlyaieJune 19, 2015Can't beat the view. The food ain't to shabby either. Try the fried snapper with an imperial beer, kick back and enjoy some of the most impressive views Costa Rica has to offer.
Daisy Perez EsparzaJanuary 14, 2013try to get here before 5:30pm to watch the sunset from the 2nd floor

Is a must-see bar and restaurant with an interesting history. The C-123 Fairchild plane has been converted to a pub and your food will be delivered from the kitchen on our fuselage dumbwaiter. Join the sunset crowd here to see and be seen.
