At that point in time it was our favorite place to eat breakfast the Coffee was great and the food was perfect for the Price, Alot has changed since the last time we visited. Seems that Maybe ownership has changed hands & now you... More

I went in here one afternoon for an early lunch and was pleasantly surprised. This was by far the best meal I had while in Costa Rica. I got the Pescado Santa Teresa or something along those lines and it was amazingly fresh fish cooked in a lemon cream sauce which was to die for. The sides were white rice... More

We travelled all around south America and this was THE most lovely place that we came across. Morgan and Nolvis,the owners of the restaurant - who we were lucky enough to get to know over our short say, are incredibly kind and hospitable people. They were such an amazing help to us, telling us so much about mal pais and... More

Great little restaurant -we really enjoyed the mint couscous dish and the curried chicken as well as the mojitas. The French woman working there was so attentive to our every need (and to those of the four children joining us) and even acted as tour guide for us in planning a trip to Montezuma waterfalls.

I remember the first time I came to this please thinking it can´t be good because we arrived early and there was no other guest and it looked kind of boring BUT dont hesitate. You will soon experience some of the best dinner service and food in your life. We ended up eating at Frank almost every day during our... More

I don't have much to add to the other reviews (especially foodmanhattan, who was right on the mark) except that I highly recommend Azucar. Spent a week in ST/Mal Pais and this was absolutely one of my best meals. Quite surprising because the location and ambiance is less than fancy (and I was quite skeptical), but the reviews are true.... More

Morgane & Nolvis, the owners of azucar restaurant definetely know how to treat their guests with a perfect combination of great food. In an atmosphere that makes it very easy for anyone to calm down and feel comfortable with all the other guests from around the world one doesn`t even think about moving anywhere else anymore in costa rica. In... More

Don't miss this place, in fact make a special trip just to experience this restaurant. We were there 3 times and it was excellent every time. Although Mediterranean chicken was not on their menu we asked if it was possible to get it. No problem at all. It was exquisite. Flavor and presentation was unbelievable and the portions were large.... More

We visited Cafe Azucar several times and always love to come back, due to the friendly owners and staff, natural delicious food and nice atmosphere. While sitting in this restaurant you do not sweat or get the dust like in many other places in the area of Mal Pais and Santa Teresa. Cafe Azucar is a little friendly Oasis in... More
