Ronny's Place is celebrated for its stunning sunset views and creative, delicious food and drinks, making it a popular spot for both casual dining and romantic evenings.

"Great food and drinks! I had the fish of the day, which was red snapper filet served with potatoes, veggies and a light garlic cream sauce. Really good! The house margaritas were delicious as well. My husband had the tuna sandwich. Delicious as well. The service was friendly. The view beautiful."

"Ronny's Place was a great place to celebrate our anniversary.
We emailed ahead of time to make a reservation at 5:30, but Ronny suggested 5 for the best sunset views and I'm glad he did.
We didn't need a reservation for late June, but you may during busier seasons.
The tuna tartar was an awesome and light appetizer to start with.
The coffee was hot and fresh, too.
My coconut shrimp was delicious! Big juicy and crisp shrimps with awesome mashed potatoes and veggies. The mango pineapple doing y sauce is to die for.
The fish of the day my husband got was fresh, tender and absolutely delectable.
We loved eating here!
We would suggest a spritz of bug spray before going to deter mosquitoes."

"Loved the view, generous portions and very good meals. Jan was our server, he was polite, knowledgeable and professional. We had the octopus carpaccio, tina steak and the ribs and they did not disappoint, food was amazing. It's not a cheap place but the food was definitely worth it. We loved this place!"

Restaurants in Manuel Antonio
After 20 years at mountain top, Ronny is still climbing high at this open-air venue where a spectacular sunset view comes with friendly, attentive service and a tempting menu. Typical tico dishes include sopa negra (black-bean soup), ceviche, shrimp and fish on a skewer, and filet mignon wrapped with bacon and topped with a mushroom sauce. Up a long road, this is the best place in town to soak in the ocean views—especially when accompanied by a glass of their famous tropical sangria or cocktail in a coconut.
