all their dishes and the restaurant is
beautifully appointed. Easy parking.

Restaurante TOSCA (Arenal beach,
on the bridge overlooking the creek

cooking. Approx. €35.00. Excellent
Menu-del-día €17.90. Muzak here

to cover the noise from the kitchen !).
BYO is a good idea but “corkage” is
charged at an outrageous €9 !!
