Paraguay

Restaurants in Paraguay

  1. A

    Confitería Bolsi

    More than a confitería, this traditional place (it's been going since 1960) serves everything from sandwiches to curried rabbit and garlic pizza. Try the surubí casa nostra (a superb selection of different pasta types and flavors on one dish).

    Lido Bar

    This diner-style local favorite, with sidewalk seating opposite the Pantheon, serves a variety of Paraguayan specialties (excellent sopa paraguaya - cornbread with cheese and onion) in generous portions for breakfast and lunch.

  3. Paulista Grill

    Dripping slabs of delicious meat (veggies can have the salad buffet). Very popular for those in the more upmarket east, and worth going to if you're staying in the area.

  4. C

    Bar San Roque

    Head back in time to this restaurant with warm turn-of-the-20th-century atmosphere. Since 1905 this fine family has been serving out-of-this-world traditional Paraguayan dishes. The counter displays fresh goods from the family farm - macadamia nuts to fruits - and the wine list is as impressive as the decent menu of pasta to meat dishes. As many locals will attest, a culinary must with service to match.

    La Vida Verde

    Assess your mood by one of the 32 quirkily sculptured emotional 'faces' on the wall - 'satisfied' is how you'll feel after this eating experience - delicious daily buffet of Chinese vegetarian delights (although they bend the rules a bit).

  6. E

    Confitería El Molino

    With bow-tied waiters and gourmet-style pastries and biscuits, this is one of the sweetest confiterías around. Great for minutas (short orders), snacks and excellent licuados (blended fruit drinks).

  7. Hole-In-The-Wall Eatery

    An excellent unnamed hole-in-the-wall eatery is located near the corner of Av Mariscal JF Estigarribia and Kreussel. It looks more like a lounge room than a café, but serves up cheap Korean and Japanese fare.

  8. F

    Café Literario

    Cool air, music, books (of course) and all that jazz. This artsy, comfy café-bookstore is a great place to read, write or imbibe. Excellent café con lechés (coffee with milk).

  9. Quattro D Heladeria

    We're not sure what the four Ds stand for in Spanish (or Italian) - but the ice-cream here is divine, delightful, delicious and delectable in anyone's language!

    Taberna Española

    The energetic ambience of this 'food museum' with dangling bottles, cooking implements and bells is only the backdrop for good-value Spanish set-price meals.

    Excelsior Mall Food Court

    Open when most restaurants are not (like Sunday evening), the air-conditioned upstairs food court offers fast-food versions of various ethnic cuisines.

  13. Hiroshima

    This signless Japanese community center is deservedly a local favorite - unbelievable udon and top tofu dishes. Food fit for a Japanese Crown Prince.

  14. I

    Talleyrand

    International haute cuisine for people with their noses haute in the air. Lovely food, lovely white cloths, lovely prices.

    Monte Libano

    Wrap your laughing gear around these luscious Lebanese swamis (meat and spice wrapped in Lebanese bread). A Peace Corps paradise.

    reviewed

  16. Lebanon

    For something more exotic and upscale, Lebanon serves scrumptious Middle Eastern fare for lunches only. Half portions available.

  17. Heladeria Mako

    Delicious pastry delights (go at midday when they're fresh), great coffee and magazines make this well worth the trek uptown.

    La Flor de Canela

    The food is more genuine than this smart place's faux Inca sculptures. A safe choice if craving ceviche.

  19. Karumbe

    Popular with the locals for a drink and a good indulgence - from pasta to meat dishes.
