Essence Arenal - El Castillo

We stayed in a house next to this great little place. the small restaurant serves the guests, but can also take outside. many more vegetarian than vegan options. we wanted dinner, but the options were only Italian thema and all milk products and had gluten. the breakfast had more.

Is the best restaurant of all fortune and castle. chefs are culinary professionals who serve you perfectly and personally. many options for celiacs many options for vegans and vegetarians organic and craft prices are very accessible

Marvin and his girlfriend greeted us with fresh strawberries and welcomed our family of five in their restaurant, even when they began to close for the day. we ordered almost every item from the lunch menu and each dish was fantastic. I can't say enough great things about this quirky and totally high quality little spot!

Very nice restaurant crew, nice atmosphere fresh food. breakfast gallo pinto rice with beans, toast, avocado, tomatensalat, agitated vegetables, coffee juice for 6 . the dinner varies daily. always 3 courses with suppe, a main course dessert for 12. updated by previous review on 2021-03-21

Ate breakfast here one morning. Told the owner I was vegan and he made me a grilled veggie salad with balsamic dressing (see picture). It was delicious! He was also extremely friendly. At the end, I asked where they get the majority of their produce. He said that depending on the season from their farm, otherwise, locally from other farms and families. All the more reason to support them! It’s well out of town but a beautiful location.
