Sunny's Indian - La Fortuna

Let me start with something that may be less than obvious: Sunny, the owner of this restaurant, is clear VERY diligent about reading (and respond to reviews here and elsewhere. In other words, he listens, he reacts, he is aware that there are vegans in the world. Points to Sunny for his efforts! Sunny's menu has a limited number of vegan options, but what I tried was all very good. I could eat the Masala Peanuts every day! Wow! I am absolutely looking forward to coming back here and trying the things I didn't get for the first time. Oh, and special note has to be made (the drinks again from the fresh lime tea I had here. It was so good, super fresh and the perfect compliment for Indian cuisine. And if you make it to Sunny's, make sure to go a little further on the road to Mount Arenal, and visit Angelina Garden. It is a free flower garden and so much more! This is designed to protect and promote local pollinators. It is one of the most beautiful places in the area, and it is free. (Although you should feel free to leave a donation when you visit. If you are a nature lover or vegan, Angelina Garden will talk to your soul and let you cry with joy. Seriously. I say that as someone who cried there with joy.

This place is quite basic, but the smiling owner whistles something very delicious Indian food. We were happy to see that there were some vegan ducks and pages on the menu. The food was all delicious, the spicy perfect, and it wasn't fat. However, the Roti had ghee/oil on it, so make sure that you eat it without when you eat oil free.

Amazing Indian food!!!!! The owner was super friendly. The menu was clearly marked and the food was excellent! The Cauliflower potato side dish is crazy!!!! All foods were fresh and super tasteful!!! I love it!

We loved the owner Sunny, his history and passion for cooking large Indian foods. There are numerous vegan options. Based on the recommendation of the cook, we had the dal masala and eggplants / potato curry, along with vegan roti. Everything was delicious. We also ate in the other Indian restaurant in La Fortuna. IMO this restaurant has better tasting food.

The food was absolutely delicious. I wish I could give it 5 stars. It is great for both vegans and also someone who wants to eat meat. The owner was very kind and gave suggestions that were very helpful! Trust him!! I decided to order something he recommended (dal masala) and it was easily one of the best vegan curries I have ever had.
