Cafe Mono Congo - Ciudad Cortes

A real life saver for someone with celiacs! They have tons of gluten free and vegan options and the desserts are delicious. We had the falafel bowl with hibicus lemonade and veggie burger with pineapple-papaya smoothie and got the chocolate papaya pie, GF brownie, and blackerry cheesecake to go.

We had only coffee and were a little bit disappointed. The espresso was without foam and latte was not good (too strong and large). Their chocolate papaya cake was good on the other side and breakfast offerings were large and looked nice and big. Visited around 10am and the place was pretty busy.

Wow wow wow. We are here everyday for 2 weeks. Then we came back to Dominical a year later and this place was the #1 food we’re most excited about. Their Brie apple butter falafel burger is amazing, their watermelon ginger smoothie I dreamt about it was so good. So many vegetarian, gluten free and vegan options! The only thing we’ve tried we didn’t like was the berry cheesecake. It was too airy and tart. Everything else we’ve loved!!

If you are not vegetarians, I don’t recommend here to you. I’m a meat person and I just wanted to try the vegan restaurant, then I felt so regret that i tried and wasted money. In my opinion, Their food/drink are not cheap as a fast food type, I don’t like the burger that I ordered, banana bread is okay, but the coconut cheese cake is not good either. The green drink has a terrible flavor….. too much gingers ,, but it’s good for stomach to have a detox i guess.

Avocado toast was just okay. The northern breakfast was nicely presented however the hash browns were waaaay to salty. Smoothies were nice.
