Dining Guide for Occidental Tamarindo

Three dining venues plus a snack bar and lobby bar. The two à la carte restaurants — Kyoto (Japanese) and La Fontana (Italian) — require reservations; the standard package typically includes one complimentary à la carte dinner per three nights, with additional visits at extra cost. Confirm the current reservation policy at check-in. Included drinks are frequently criticized for quality — sugary mixes and slow bar service come up repeatedly in guest reviews.

Included Dining

Kyoto Restaurant

Included

Japanese

Japanese restaurant with sushi and a teppanyaki show-cooking table. The teppanyaki is the interactive centerpiece — worth requesting specifically. Reservation required. Dinner only. One of the better dining experiences on property.

Signature dishes: Sushi, Teppanyaki

La Fontana Restaurant

Included

Italian

Italian à la carte with pizza and pasta as the mainstays. The pizza gets good marks — crispy crust, properly made. Reservation required. Dinner only.

Langosta Restaurant

Included

International and Local dishes

The main buffet serving all three meals. Fresh juice bar and egg station at breakfast are the highlights; dinner rotation is inconsistent and draws mixed reviews for variety. The Costa Rican dishes when available are worth trying over the generic international options.

Las Baulas Snack Bar

Included

Snacks, light fare

Open-air snack stop between the pool and beach — the best location on property for a casual bite. Light fare, sandwiches, and refreshments. Good for midday without having to leave the pool-beach zone.

La Tortuga Lobby Bar

Included

Bar menu (drinks)

Evening gathering spot with live music on most nights. The live music element is one of the more consistently praised aspects of the resort. Full bar menu with included all-inclusive beverages — though drink quality has been noted as inconsistent.
