Restaurante Café Mediterráneo

Our family of four had an exceptional dinner on a late evening after arriving in La Fortuna. The location is just up the road from the main street with plenty of parking. The staff were very friendly and made excellent recommendations. The huge pizzas are made fresh, topped with the best ingredients and baked in a wood fire oven. Do not skip on the spaghetti carbonara, yes it is that good.

My wife and I had a wonderful dinner at this place. A warm welcome at the door, great service and fantastic food.

Good food and great service! We came as a group of 8 without a reservation and they were able to seat us immediately (it’s not super crowded in La Fortuna right now). Our food came out quickly as well. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food wasn’t the best we’ve ever had, but still pretty solid!

Overall really good experience! We gave this place a 4/5 stars because it was good but not the best Italian food we’ve ever had. The place definitely had a romantic feel like we were expecting and the service was excellent - our servers were awesome! I ordered the Pasta Carbonara (which I believe they used cream in) and my wife the Salmon and mashed Potatoes (not pictured). Everything was really good but a little under seasoned. It was definitely a very large portion of salmon for the price - which is definitely a win!Would recommend for a nice romantic dinner that still isn’t too expensive.

This pizzeria was recommended to us by an employee of a car rental company in Fortuna – and it was a very good decision. The pizza could even be ordered with extras – it was fantastic, the crust crispy – it was cooked in a wood-fired oven. The local craft beers – IPA and Golden Pale Ale – were also very good! The prices are slightly higher, but in line with the good quality of the food. The service was very attentive, but not intrusive. The pizzeria is highly recommended – we'd happily return another time.

We love the ambiance and the place settings, but that's where the pros end. The cons: my wife's salmon wasn't cooked all the way through; her piña colada had next to no alcohol. I asked for a hamburger with no lettuce and the meat to be medium well. I still got lettuce on the burger and the meat was more like medium rare. My French fries were below quality and undercooked. The appetizer, avocado with shrimp topping was the one redeeming part of the meal. We won't return, even though we had a 10% off coupon from the hotel we chose to stay in while visiting La Fortuna.

I had a group of 6 people and we ate here. This place is so delicious. The ambience is amazing! I got a medium vegetarian pizza and it was delicious. They had options for everyone.

Excellent for families. Service was great and food was good. Ordered drinks and pizza while my kids played next to us in the playroom. Might have been the most fun they had on the trip!
