Learn what our visitors think We visited just the restaurant for lunch, and it was superby. It was very quiet (we were the only ones there at the time). We sat outside in the lovely gardens, watched the birds, and had a great meal which was served quickly. It is a bit of a drive to get there, but the peacefulness of the surroundings is worth the effort. I recommend the chocolate pie for desert. Duncan W. Nueva Zelanda Our experience during our visit to Talamanca was over the top. We had Valentine’s Day dinner, which was the red tuna, and for dessert a passion, fruit cheesecake the whole meal was to die, for.we also hiked reserve very peaceful.
The gardens in front of the restaurant are great for bird!!
