Great Food - Edit
We loved the Vegan choices and ended up doing lunch and dinner here. Talking to the waiter made it clear that the restaurant was very committed to providing healthy plant based food. It was quiet due to the off-season, but allowed us to chat with the waiter. We tried the Root bowl, Smoothie bowl, Salad and Tacos. Juices were awesome too.

Lots of vegan options - Edit
There were so many vegan and vegetarian options I had a hard time choosing! We ordered the frijo, birria, and soy good tacos and all were delicious! I especially loved the passion fruit spicy chili sauce. We also had the nutty plantains as an appetizer, mudslide smoothie, and house made kombucha. 10/10 recommend. I spoke with another person while checking out, and she told me the banana pancakes and avocado toast were incredible and has come back everyday.

Vegan/ Veg Option Gem in Manuel Antonio - Edit
5 Stars! (HappyCow wont let me select 5 starts because it is not fully vegan). We have come here for breakfast, lunch AND dinner now! This restaurant is new and so amazing! The food tastes incredibly fresh and tasty, all the drinks are delicious, and the cacao drink menu is out of this world. Love finding gems like this! Incredible selection of quality vegan and vegetarian food. Also, the view during daytime is amazing. 110% recommend this restaurant. When I’m back in Costa Rica, we will definitely be coming back here!

Great spot for lunch or dinner - Edit
We visited Roots twice in one day- the food was really good. Loads of vegan options on the menu. The restaurant is a lovely space and has fantastic views overlooking the forest. It was a great spot for looking for wildlife

Almost fully vegan - Edit
This cafe and restaurant is almost fully vegan with delicious treats, smoothie bowls, and meals. The smoothie bowls are huge and very filling but can get expensive.. so can the desserts! But we went 5 times total in our week in Costa Rica because there were many options, beautiful views, delicious food, and great staff! A must for anyone who wants fresh, healthy, and plant-based food!

Amazing place in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica! - Edit
The Restaurant is upstairs called Roots. The atmosphere is so nice and the staff is so very friendly. We saw toucans and monkeys sitting there. The food was absolutely amazing!! You need to go there! I had their homemade vegan Casado and a mint lemonade. Delicious! Definitely going back there. Probably tomorrow 😉

Would post 5 stars if I could! - Edit
I love that they are really a plant-based restaurant, that includes flexitarian options like what regular restaurants do for vegans with a small section in the back 😂 they have an awesome menu for just getting started 🫶 definitely try the smoothie bowls and cacao!!!!
