The best food in Antigua! We eat here every time we go to Antigua. Everything we've had is delicious: fresh tortillas, pepian, caldo de pollo, fresh fruit juices, tamales, kak'ik... And the fresh air, patio ambience is beautiful. Staff has always been very friendly and helpful.

Absolutely divine. I ordered a local beer and the beans with pork ribs. It came with rice, handmade tortillas, and a tamal. Would highly recommend coming for local Guatemalan cuisine.

Loved it. It is Step an away from the Parque Central; very convenient. Wanted a simple evening snack & ordered the ham & cheese fondue (Guatemalan style) with an extra order of warm tortillas. The total with a bottle of water was approximately 10 (with tip). Not cheap but it’s a nice restaurant in a great location. Think of quesadillas with just ham & cheese. The quality was excellent as was the service (waitresses in typical Guatemalan dress) & the atmosphere. I asked for a table by the street to watch people pass. The inside seating was nice as well.

I was able to have dinner here with a client and they recommended this restaurant because it was traditional Guatemalan food. The restaurant was very cute and the food was very traditional and delicious.I had the fish for dinner with plantains and it was very tasty. My cocktail dinner drinks were good and sitting on the main floor added to the ambiance. The restaurant has a middle patio area with an open roof.I recommend this place if you are wanting traditional Guatemalan food.

This was a great place for wonderful traditional food from Guatemala. We loved the soups and stews like Pepián and Estofado of Duck. Fabulous. Great atmosphere. We returned 3 times.

I recommend the caldo real soup, pepian de tres carnes, and beef ribs! Went here last night and it was absolutely delicious. The best meal I’ve had in Guatemala honestly. Friendly service, and great atmosphere. Wasn’t too busy when we went in but the reviews speak for themselves! Definitely visit if you are in Antigua!

Great Guatemala food. Got guacamole and refried beans with chips. The beans came with sour cream and cheese which I was ableTo avoid. I got the rice and beans and the vegetables. Happy they had a vegetarian section.
