Big burrito - Edit
Had the grilled veggies burrito today. Very nice. Big. Filling. Great hot sauce. For locals in off season they have half priced burritos and tacos on Sunday so make sure to ask. Separate vegan and separate gluten free menus. Very nice. Price is typical of Tama-gringo.

Wish it was fully vegan - Edit
Really enjoyed my meal at Green Papaya. I had a quesadilla with a side of potatoes and a delicious aioli. The flavors were delicious and it was extremely filling. I was really happy to see they had a large vegan menu with burritos, tacos, quesadillas, salads, and apps. Unfortunately you have to request a vegan menu and it’s not given to everyone when the sit down.

So yummy! - Edit
On vacation and found thanks to Happy Cow.
Read moreI shared the Vegan Greek roll ups as an appetizer with my partner. They were extremely good!
As my meal I had the vegan veggie tacos. They were also very good but a bit messy to eat.

A Tamarindo Favorite - Edit
Great local Cafe vibe with a seperate vegan menu. We've been a few times, ordering different things to try. We love the consistency in food quality. They know their stuff, and staff are friendly.

Separate Vegan Menu! - Edit
It's great when you visit a place that has a separate vegan menu. You know they're taking you seriously and not just providing a token gesture.
Read moreThe menu is varied and mainly typically Costa Rican/tropical. We had a very good feed here and the food tasted fresh.
We would have come back for a second visit, but at the time they were not accepting cards - as UK residents, there's only so much US$ (or local currency) we carry on us when abroad

Decent vegan options - Edit
I had the Beet Carpaccio opting for a lighter dinner option. Friends had tacos. All were enjoyed! Separate vegan menu, although we had to request it. I’m not sure why the vegan menu isn’t the default?! Choose vegan 🌱 is the most impactful thing individuals can do for the animals and the planet.

Great food and chill atmosphere - Edit
Loved this place - tucked away off the main street. Swings at the outdoor bar seating are fun. Food was very flavorful and good sized portions. We had the homemade chips and vegan ceviche, vegan quesadilla, and hippie bowl. Unique ingredients and combos you don't find at a typical taco place. Highly recommend.

Best meal I’ve had in a while - Edit
Absolutely loved my meal at Green Papaya - wish I could give 5 stars. I got the vegan ceviche and the Monte Verde quesadilla with jalapeño. So so flavourful and I wish we could’ve had the chance to go back.

Great Vegan Options - Edit
Hard to choose. Was tempted by the bowl but went for the black bean burger and it was delicious. Lots of healthy toppings and thin whole wheat bun. Will return.

Okay - Edit
They have a separate vegan menu upon request, which was great! Homemade flour tortillas, corn upon request if you’re gluten free. But I will say the tacos I ordered were a tiny bit weird. Mashed potatoes are entirely unnecessary in a taco. Super filling, but odd. Not complaining though. Seats are swings, which is a super cute idea, but also super uncomfortable
