"We had our rehearsal dinner for 27 people at Brukas! Nacho and his team were amazing! Our youngest guests were 2 years old and loved their ribeye kids meals. The adults could not stop talking our entire trip about how wonderful our experience here.

The views we had were some of the best of our trip! Sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean made for a beautiful sunset. We were seated out on the deck and it was one of those experiences where photos don’t do it justice. It was gorgeous.
We had a lot of kids. Brukas was perfect for them to play on the swing and there was a grassy area the kids could play in so it’s great for families!
Do not miss this restaurant if you are in Santa Teresa!"

"If you expect a 5 star experience, (quality, views, staff, atmosphere, and Puda Vida), this is your best choice! Not our first time here and looking forward to our next. The food quality, amazing staff, great vibes, and unbelievable views make this a must stop for anyone coming to Santa Clara CR. Finding any of these qualities in an eatery is great but when combined make this a truly exceptional experience!"
Russ
"Known for their above and beyond service, stunning views and top-notch food. Every time we come here we’re treated like family. The chef is wonderful and the whole staff makes you feel welcomed. Special shout-out to our favorite server, Cesar, who makes every experience special. Their charcuterie board + any of the steak options = the perfect dinner date for two"
