This was our favourite restaurant in La Fortuna and we had both lunch and dinner here and enjoyed everything we ordered.
The owner and chef is Peruvian and cooks a delightful fusion of Chinese and Peruvian cuisine. He has five different types of ceviche, all...delicious, and all his other dishes had a light and fragrant taste with fresh ingredients. He is passionate about food and cooking and welcomes you as if he is inviting you into his own home.
The restaurant is run from very humble premises with the kitchen clearly visible from the restaurant. The owner takes the time to bring dishes out to tables in quieter moments and to talk to the diners. In the evenings, his wife waits on tables and his son can be seen sitting quietly on table at the back. It truly is a family affair and the reason for the name of the restaurant, ‘Chifa’ meaning Chinese fusion and La Familia Feliz meaning ‘happy family’!More
