Angelina's Dining Guide

GET TO KNOW A RESTAURANT BEFORE YOU GO

Believe it or not, in the heart of Playa Flamingo you can indulge in a truly world-class dining experience in the Flamingo plaza at Angelina’s. Brother chefs Joseph and Justin Mucaria, sons of certified executive chef and culinary arts professor Joseph Sr., bring their utmost respect for “the product and process” instilled by their father and reinforced through their lifetimes in the kitchen.

Angelina’s, named after the brothers’ beloved grandmother who passed down her love of cooking, opened their doors in October of 2008. Their passion about the food they prepare for your delight is clearly understood when you see the dedication to their art.

The brothers spend an incredible amount of time planning and preparing. They source much of their own product, including fresh meats and seafood, while crafting homemade sausages, desserts and ice creams from high quality, minimal ingredients. They use the freshest and finest ingredients available and, whenever possible, they serve farm-to-table, eliminating the middleman and ensuring product freshness and quality direct from the grower. The brothers’ attention to detail is clearly visible with every dish. They offer an array of savory and delightful choices-- even the freshly baked artisan pizza is world class, its aroma awakening your senses and stimulating your palate as you approach Angelina’s.

Focusing on in-house, dry aged beef, their menu boasts a variety of cuts of the finest meats, aged with the use of Himalayan pink salt blocks and prepared on site to culinary perfection. Their own dry meat aging produces sublime melt-in-your-mouth eating experiences that rank these dishes among the world’s finest.

The dining experience crosses into the divine at Angelina’s, surrounded by natural petrified trees and local Guanacaste artwork. The seamlessly presented meal, complete with top notch service, fine wines, delightful atmosphere and all around impressive culinary creations, is why it’s well worth regular trips from near and far.

Nearly eight years strong, the Mucaria brothers are continuing to step up the measure of excellence at Angelina’s, regularly offering new menu items and a caliber of fine dining paralleling the finest restaurants of the world’s greatest cities. Angelina’s is easily among the most outstanding meals you can enjoy in Costa Rica.
