Fodor's Expert Review Nectar

$$$ Malpais and Santa Teresa Seafood Fodor's Choice

Fresh seafood is the specialty at this poolside alfresco restaurant, with inventive daily specials that focus on the day's catch prepared with Asian and Mediterranean flavors. After 3:30, the dedicated sushi chef produces such treats as panko-crusted prawn roll with ahi tuna, mango, and avocado. Come for lunch and enjoy the calming sea view peeking through the tropical foliage, or come for a special-occasion candlelit dinner backed by the sound of the surf. It’s pricey, but worth the splurge if you crave a sophisticated scene.
