El Codigo Beach - Puntarenas

El codigo beach restaurant is my first choice when they visit puntarenas, on the beach relaxed atmosphere. waiter treat them like family, always with a smile and a great service. eating is not, marlin filet with seafood mix in a homemade sampi sauce is fantastic, much taste and perfect balance, we also had the garnelen canastas (galnel filled tostones) was great also, the combination of fried plantains with garnelen scampi is perfect. do not leave puntarenas without visiting this place.

Excellent food, nice music right in front of the beach!

Especially the food (Seafood) and also the cocktails are actually good. Unfortunately, the bad surprise came to the bill. The US dollar was calculated at 1:540. However, more than 1 to approx. 620, as the day before. Reasons: The way to the bank is far to change dollar. For the couple of disguised dollars, there is the appropriate rating.

By chance, we are looking for a restaurant on El Código Beach and have come to the celebration of the 3-year anniversary of the Resruarant. Live music with dance, salsa, Merengue and Bachata and a bomb mood among the guests. We've also found a place for us. The menu with a clear focus on fish and seafood was already appealing, which was then served exceeded our expectations. The lobster tails with lots of seafood and delicious garlic butter sauce were enough for two and the Canastas baskets) of frit cooked bananas, filled with seafood and/or fish we had pulpo y cambute, that is squid and shellfish) were just delicious. A friendly and efficient service. Pura vida!

The service was very slow, it took 40 minutes until my salat arrived. the sweet in salad was cut into huge, awkward pieces and there was very little change. the garnels used in salate were small, fat and overcooked and do not add the salate. the preserved mushrooms contained in the salat were certainly a false mistake, I thought, and the dish was not really spiced. also very expensive. a disappointing experience in this time; a shame too, last year I had come and had the fried calamari that was delicious.
