Café de la Parroquia / La Brasserie
Beautiful courtyard dining on fresh, local ingredients. Although many menu items seem at first to be the "usual", there's nothing ordinary about them. Try in particular the chicken soup (throw in all the onions and cilantro), tacos and any omelette.
Café de la Parroquia: 08:00-16:00; La Brasserie 18:00-22:00

La Grotta
A wonderful, multi-story restaurant owned by Daniel and son Dyami. La Grotta is located downhill, around the corner, just a block from the main cathedral. The restaurant is casual and the main items are pizza, calzones, and Italian-related. The food is very carefully and freshly prepared.

This restaurant is based in the patio of a charming inn located in a remarkably well preserved colonial house.
