The National Restoration Party (Spanish: Partido Restauración Nacional – PRN) is a political party in Costa Rica, founded in 2005 mostly by dissidents of Costa Rica’s historical Christian party Costa Rican Renewal after its then only deputy Carlos Avendaño left. Avendaño would successfully return to Congress thanks to the party for the 2010-2014 period and, even when in the past had personal differences with Justo Orozco (then PRC only deputy) both were able to work together defending the same agenda, mainly the conservative views of the evangelical community. The party's candidate in the presidential election of 2014 was Avendaño, who received 1.35 percent of the vote.
In the sames year's parliamentary election, Gerardo Fabricio Alvarado Muñoz, representing San José, was elected to the only seat in the Legislative Assembly won by the party.
