Los Vivos Restaurant · open daily 11:00 – 20:00
Lunch under the bamboo roof.
Ceviche cured in lime, poke bowls, casados and the catch of the day, cooked to order from Honey’s farm, local growers and the bay.
About our ingredients
Grown down the road. Caught in the bay.
The restaurant is all organic. Every Saturday Honey Akerson opens her organic farmers’ market to the surrounding communities, and that is where the kitchen shops first.
Vegetables, herbs and tropical fruit come from Finca Orgánico El Tajo, the family farm, and from neighbouring growers. Fish and seafood come from sustainable fisheries. The cooks turn it into Costa Rican food with a few travelled ideas: ceviche, casados, tacos, poke bowls, pasta, fresh juices and smoothies.
- All organic, farm to table
- Seafood from sustainable fisheries
- Vegetarian and gluten-free alternatives
