La Casa de Socorro
This is a good little spot to try comida costeña, the typical food of the coast. It’s a casual spot with nice design touches like paintings on recycled walking planks, and the menu features staples like robalo (sea bass) smothered in cheese and garlic, along with more adventurous fare such as snail or turtle soup.

La Mulata Cartagena
This stylish comida corriente (set lunch) option is both outstanding and cheap. A daily set menu offers a handful of excellent choices and aguas frescas (fresh juices) in an atmosphere entirely too hip for the price. It’s arguably the best value in Cartagena. There’s no sign outside – it’s under the Defensoría del Pueblo.

La Vitriola
This foodie find inside a 400-year-old colonial home is revered the country over. Seafood is the main attraction, specifically mero (grouper). The Don Román version, with a tamarind and chili sauce, is superb. There’s an extensive Chilean and Argentinian wine list to go with the menu as well as live Cuban music nightly.

8-18
Very innovative takes on modern costeña cuisine is immerging from the glassed-in kitchen at this intimate and trendy boutique restaurant decked out in lime-vegetation decor. The creamy calamari rice with blue cheese is thoroughly satisfying and the bull’s tail stewed in red wine is the best seller. One of Cartagena’s best.

BrianZola
This is the spot to cool off with Italian gelato in a plethora of exotic Colombian flavors like mora (blackberry), arequipe (milk caramel), zapote (a type of red avocado) and guanábara (soursop). It also does recommendable pizzas. It’s attached to Juan Valdéz cafe.

La Cevicheria
Celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain dined at this tiny seafooder for his television show and for good reason: unconventional ceviches (shrimp with mango, passion fruit, garlic butter, mozzarella cheese and white wine, for example) offer a culinary quest into the exotic ingredients of Colombia’s coast.

El Santíssimo
This upscale casual spot is doing some very interesting things with the flavors and food of Colombia, and each dish is paired with a suggested wine. The obatala, a traditional costeña beef stew, is divine. Don’t miss it.

Bocaditos Madrid
This working-class lunch counter is a great place to try homey local food at rock bottom prices. There’s no menu, just a few daily changing options like chicken with maracuyá (passion fruit).

La Dulceria
If you’re escaping more chaotic El Centro for the plush suburbs of Bocagrande, this is a good option for an excellent selection of salads, sandwiches and Arab sweets such as baklava.

Gato Negro
This new German-run option concentrates on breakfast – omelettes, Nutella crepes, muesli – and offers a set COP$5000 lunch as well. There’s also wi-fi, a rarity for whatever reason.
