  1. Tropical

    This is Riberalta’s most upscale restaurant, leading the residents to nickname it Tropicarísimo (very expensive…). Gargantuan portions of meat, chicken and fish accompanied by salad, rice and fried manioc feed two or three normal-sized people, though the profusion of animal skins and stuffed wildlife hanging off the walls and ceiling might put you off.

  2. Maderos

    If you’re a Mexican food fanatic you’ll have been scouring the continent for a place like this. Top-class burritos and all the rest are served in this palapa roofed hangout. Key to its success is that it gives you the ingredients and lets you fold up your own fajitas.

  3. Churrasquería la Estancia

    Ask anybody in Trinidad where to get a good bit of beef and you will be sent here. With its palm roof and coal fire barbecue hamming up the ranch-house setting, the succulent and juicy cuts will make you wonder how other restaurants even dare to call themselves churrasquerías.

    Casa del Turista

    As interesting for its rickety bamboo structure as for the menu of Italian, Mexican and Bolivian dishes that it serves up. It feels a bit like the House that Jack Built, so be careful on the staircase after indulging in the exotic frozen cocktails during the nightly happy hour.

  5. La Casona

    Trinidad’s most famous restaurant unfortunately doesn’t live up to the hype. Give the overpriced à la carte meals a miss and stick to the lunchtime almuerzo.

  6. Club Social

    Right on the plaza, in a shady, breezy courtyard, the lovely social club is a local family favorite. The generous two-course menus include soup, meat, rice and veg, plus a drink.

  7. Horno Camba

    The best of the restaurants on the plaza serving fish, chicken and Beni beef. What’s more, the sidewalk seating provides a front-row view of the nightly Kawasaki derby.

  8. La Choza del Pescador

    There’s not much on the menu here, just fish cooked in about five different ways, but if you are feeling fishy then this is a good place to drop anchor.

    Snack Antonella

    Serves simple meals in an eclectic dining area carved out of the family’s home, and at wood tables set up on the sidewalk facing the plaza. It’s mostly tortas, salgados, and other light fare but it also has fish and chicken dishes, served with rice, beans and salad.

  18. Restaurant Un Gusto a Más

    Get Brazilian-style grub at Bolivian prices at this bright, popular eatery, run by a hard-working Bolivian-Brazilian family. The self-serve spread is modest but tasty, with dishes from both sides of the border, and the dining area is spacious and colorful.
