Is La Costanera worth it?

Paying for the Scene. Harry scores La Costanera 76/100 for quality and 72/100 on the Worth It scale for Half Moon Bay. One caveat: You're getting an experience. Whether you needed it is up to you.

The Michelin listing and the 1,450-count Google average at 4.5 tell the same story — this is a place that performs for a big crowd, oceanfront glass-walled room included. But Yelp's 3.8 off only 56 reviews is a real gap, not noise, and it's worth asking whether that smaller, pickier sample is catching something about service or pricing at the $$$ tier that the Google mass doesn't register. Worth going for the room and the Peruvian cooking, but don't assume universal consensus just because Michelin took notice.

One card, one verdict. Pulled from current data, not a stale snapshot. Want the methodology? How Harry scores.
