Jolly Roger

Playa Tamarindo


These chicken wings are so darn good, people plan their days around them. The meaty, oversized wings are a perfect combo of crunchy and tender, but it's the 24 different sauces that truly set these apart. Hot honey garlic! Spicy maple brown sugar! Hot sugarcane! Bring lots of friends and try them all. Cauliflower substitutes available.

There are sister restaurants in Dominical and Manuel Antonio.
