It is absolutely my favorite place in Costa Rica! The owners, Manuela and Roberto are so wonderful, they really do pour love into their food as well as onto others. The food is delicious and locally sourced, I went here for breakfast almost every day during my stay in Puerto Viejo and had the chance to try the eggs, vegan pancake(mega YUM,) bruschetta, carrot cake(best, freshest and healthiest I ever tried,) the smoothies and my favorite: The cold chocolate with ginger(order with almond milk!) On my last few days I was coming down with the flu and Manuela made me a special green smoothie and filled my water bottle with a few things to drink throughout the day so I would get better, next day I was almost as good as new!

I wouldn’t have tipped anything to a unfriendly person, who tried to scam...
Read moreI love Como en mi Casa. Its vibrant colorful decor draws me in every time I find myself in the area. The vegan & gluten free pancake is my favorite, along with the brownie. I also enjoy the vegan gallo pinto—the veggies are cooked with basil and garlic and they are super tasty. This is slow food, which is how it’s advertised. Please don’t come here expecting your food to arrive to the table quickly, but instead, pause for moments of mindfulness while you wait for your food to be prepared with love and intention. Check out all of the local art while you wait to eat! A women operated business is one I will always support. Thank you for the...
