This was our first visit to La Catedral and we were totally impressed by the food, the ambiance, the vibe and the excellent attention and service we got from the staff and from the owners, Lisa and Luca. The food was amazing, we practically ordered one of every dish (two of the lamb dish, because lamb is delicious and you won't find lamb in many places in Nosara), the cocktails were perfect and the setting was magical, high up on a hill with a gorgeous view of the ocean between two hills. Get there early so you don't miss the sunset. It's a bit of of town but the drive is totally worth it.

Going to try to keep this short and relevant, but I honestly have so many good things to say about this place. I live in Nosara, and I can tell you this is one of the most stylish, eclectic, and unique spots in town, with easily some of the best food.

The service *chef's kiss, perfect balance of warm and personal without ever feeling pushy or inauthentic, which is rare. Don’t even get me started on the architecture and the views. I won’t ruin that surprise for you.

I’ve been here many times, for dinner and events, and it never disappoints. It’s simply a must.

Please go visit them, incredible team, food, space, views and vibe! One of our favorite meals in Nosara, will be back again soon, thank you for having us!

Driving up the road you question whether it’s worth it, especially when the only signs you see are for an Irish pub. But then you arrive at this super cool place with great decorations, music, vibes and an amazing view. Highly recommend being there around 5 for sunset. The appetizers were delicious. We had the slow roasted beef and the meatballs as mains which were not as delicious. Overall it was a great meal. We paid about $75 per person including several drinks per person.

Please go and visit this place it is so authentic and stylish you won’t be disappointed . Unique all white building standing on a mountain slop surrounded by lush greenery and amazing views. The design of the place is like nothing I have seen before it makes you feel you are in a fairytale .Sometimes nice appearance only covers poor food , but that is not the case here we took an octopus and slowly roasted meat in a pot every bite covered our mouthes with delicious flavor.

This place completely stole my heart. It was one of the most memorable evenings we had in Nosara.

Everything that happened there felt like pure magic — from the incredible dishes we ordered to the atmosphere itself. The place has such a special energy, the owners are incredibly warm and welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious.

It wasn’t just dinner, it was a full experience that we will remember for a long time. Truly special.

We have visited Nosara/Guiones for the past 8 years. Every time we come, there is a new restaurant serving fabulous food.

This year has been no different. La Catedral de la Diosa Yaxa happens to be a short ride up the mountain from where we stay. While nice for us, what had us going there 3 tines in the last 8 days is the food, staff friendliness, and owner Lisa Lemkin.

From Panisse & Cumin Mayo fried chick peas), Trout Rillette, Covina tartare, to the lamb shank, Lisa and her assistants' grasp of food is absolutely worth getting up the mountain to the restaurant.

Outstanding one-of-a-kind experience in the mtns abovr Nosara! I was looking for a place as unique as this in town, but was left disappointed several times over. Roberto, Luca & Lisa (and the chef, though I did not meet him) were outstanding. Some of the best food and hospitality I have had in years. Excellent spot, try to make it happen if you are in the area, you’ll enjoy the food, vibe and views in equal amounts of splendor. Can’t wait to make it back some day.
