    The best brunch in Santa Marta, with an outstanding quality for price. The location is vibrant, colourful and relaxing; the wait times are minimal and the pancakes are -I'm not exagerating- the best ones I ever had. Will come back for every breakfast I have in Santa Marta.

    I was in Santa Marta for 4 days. Was twice a day at La Canoa. Great service and extremely friendly staff. The food was fresh and delicious. Breakfast, Lunch, Diner and Cakes really tasty. The steak was always fantastic. This is the place you have to visit when you are in Santa Marta. I hope to see you again guys. Best wishes. It was a pleasure. Take care.

    I never imagined that from such a small kitchen so many dishes could come. I tried the Ratatui w french fries. It was delish. No cocktails before 3 pm but beer is good. Beautiful house.

    Came here a second time because the first time was so good. The omelette with french toast was fantastic, as was the quiche lorraine (served with a really good salad & dressing). My partner really enjoyed his cake, he ordered it twice!

    Cool atmosphere, we had the beef medallions with mashed potato. Sadly the meat was pretty inedible, they did knock it off the bill though.

  • 5/5 C F. 4 years ago on Google
    Wow! The real deal. Excellent steak, fish, coffee and dessert all prepared as if in France. Great WiFi and A/C. One of the best restaurants we experienced in Santa Marta.

  • 5/5 asta l. 5 years ago on Google
    Amazing food and attention. Large portions and well executed food. Delicious freshly mixed smoothies. Staff was very attentive. We sat outside near the kitchen as my husband had a flu and were privileged to watch the chef cooking. The only thing I could not miss (what a shame) they left the dirty cleaning cloth on next table and forgot about it...

  • 5/5 Helmut S. 4 years ago on Google
    Cute place. Great food. Lots of seafood. And amazing salads. They have two different areas, with and without air-con, both inside the restaurant. Amazing customer service!

  • 5/5 Hannah W. 1 year ago on Google
    Oh. My. Gosh. Dinner here is mouthwatering. The French inspired dishes of tender braised pork and flavorful shrimp are to die for. The vibe of the rooftop is amazing - pool tables, games, and rooftop pools surround you - and the people are so friendly. If you just go here for breakfast, you’re missing out!

  • 5/5 Bret J. 1 year ago on Google
    Great service. The staff has some English. Food was amazing. The restaurant is on the 3rd floor of hotel Masaya. I looked the atmosphere and vibe of the place.

  • 3/5 Duncan M. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was good but I hate when restaurants charge a different and inflated price to the menu, Price gouging tourist is not healthy for anybody and then to blame the computer is ridiculous especially when the waitress wrote the bill on a piece of paper. Be aware of what they do, I am not the first and for sure will not be the last. Myself and my friends would never go back . You will kill your good will with this activity

    Really wanted to like this place but I absolutely got food poisoning after eating here. I had the lomo dish. Probably poor handling of the meat :( please be careful!

  • 5/5 Evelyn L. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a very nice bar and restaurant at the rooftop of Masaya hostel. It has it own vibrant energy, nice clientele, a beautiful view to the city and of course a great menu from small amd healthy things that you munch on to something more filling.

  • 5/5 Miguel R. 4 years ago on Google
    Easily the best prepared fish I've had on the coast. The restaurant has an incredible ambiance. For those unable to tolerate the heat of Santa Marta, they have a room with A/C. However, it's much more fun to sit outside by the kitchen and watch the Chef (Cindy) as she shows her craft preparing her dish with love. I had the Mer du Sur which was a fish soup of sorts. The broth alone could be it's own separate dish worth an order. The Repollitas de la Tierra were vegetarian sliders and an amazing introduction to this culinary experience. They also have a great barista and an in house pastry chef. I highly recommend this place.

  • 5/5 Johannes R. 5 years ago on Google
    Really amazing places! Great space & really delicious well priced food. We had fish and the Portobello mushroom burger and both were delicious. Service was friendly and fast. The other great thing about the menu is that it has lots of vegan & vegetarian options as well as for meat eaters.

    I visited La Canoa in the evening and the first thing I noticed about is that it has more of a cafe than restaurant vibe. The venue, lighting and menu seemed to suggest a spot more suited for lunchtime. Anyway, as I was dining solo, I was keen to avoid the packed out venues nearby so dived in. As with most places in Santa Marta the food is slightly elevated but don’t go expecting anything particularly special. I returned for a second evening, being lazy and wanting some peace. As with the night before, there was only one waiter. He was left to serve more than 20 people all by himself. I assumed the kitchen was equally understaffed. All the diners were getting increasingly frustrated as one table waited over an hour for their main course. I waited 30 minutes for a glass of wine! The table next to me helped out the frazzled waiter by fetching their own deserts. A note to the owners: you need to pay for additional staff. If you want to maintain your business it’s important to serve customers and look after your staff properly.

  • 3/5 Bill S. 4 years ago on Google
    Had dinner there with my wife and two other couples earlier tonight. The place was almost totally empty...surprised since it was on a Friday night...between about 6:30 and 9:00. Well...the food was very good...small portions but tasty. Had a couple of margaritas which were pretty bad...almost tasteless...was there really tequila in there? The overall big bummer of the night was the service. After getting our drink and food orders the waiter disappeared for a long time. We would have loved to have some dessert but again...no wait staff was around...we sat in the front room with air conditioning...so felt like the waiter(s) deserted us for most of the night. Yes...disappointed with this place...our friends had come several times before and were surprised how lousy the service was this evening. Don't think any of us will return anytime soon. :0(
