The Green Restaurant — Restaurant in Monteverde

The Green Restaurant is a great option for burgers in Monteverde. We chose this small restaurant on the second floor of a shopping center as they are seemingly the only place in town that serves lamb burgers, which my non beef eating wife appreciated. She ordered their lamb burger and I ordered the Texas beef burger. Burgers here are cooked obligatorily to well done but remain flavorful and juicy nonetheless. The toppings are fresh and well conceived. Hamburger buns are baked in house, and the bread possesses the ideal fluffy texture while retaining structural integrity. Burgers come with a small side of fries and an addictive homemade basil mayo. The restaurant offers the standard beverage options along with a small but good selection of craft beers. Service was pleasant and efficient. All told, well worth a stop for a burger craving or to break up the monotony of Costa...

First time visitor to Monteverde, and tried this place based upon the reviews. The place is very small - it has a few tables outside an a few inside. We almost went somewhere else when we got there, but decided to try it anyway.

We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of food. My wife had the kebabs, my son had the burger, and I had the ribeye. Everything was surprisingly good - I honestly didn’t expect the quality of food we received. Now keep in mind, this is not a Ruth’s Chris steak.

(Please note that my five-star review is based on a...

As a vegetarian with many meat eating friends I must recommend The Green. The owners are young and honest. Emmanuel and Francini will make sure you will get the best deal and every meal is just to good to be true. I love eating the meals that are not on the menu. Ask for the Mongolian Style dishes. You get to pick all the veggies you want and your choice of meat, chicken, fish, etc if you want. After that they will tell you the variety of sauces and combinations you can get. Then you have to decide whether you want all that with rice, pasta or a large flour tortilla. Everything is steamed and so delicious and healthy as well. I eat that every time I go with new combination of sauces. Pineapple drinks and most natural drinks are the real deal, tasty and fresh. Enjoy your option...
