South American restaurants in Uruguay

  1. El Viejo y El Mar

    This ramshackle restaurant is suffused with a carefully calculated rustic-hip atmosphere - its candlelit walls are adorned with fishing nets, wine bottles, lanterns and guitars, and a friendly dog roams from room to room. You're offered whatever they're serving that night, with fish and wine sure to feature prominently.

    La Corte

    OK, so maybe you'd rather not eat in a place once patronized by George W Bush, but the food is excellent at this elegant twin-level restaurant on Plaza Constitución. The lunchtime menu ejecutivo (business lunch) is a bargain.

  3. Drugstore

    Reasonable set meals for two, eclectic decor (try dining in the vintage car on the street) and live music on weekends. If you're hungry, go for the picada a la mar (seafood assortment).

  4. B

    Lobizón 7

    Popular with young montevideanos, with inexpensive lunch specials including gramajo (a calorie-packed house special of eggs, ham and French fries). Live music some nights.

  5. El Torreón

    By far the best place to eat in terms of views, this place is set in an old tower overlooking the water. The back deck makes for a cozy, intimate spot for a romantic dinner.

    Just across from the beach, this place is a local favorite.
