Excellent food and drinks We had a reservation for 11 and we sat in 2 tables. Staff was very friendly and didn’t rush us. Food is very good with choices available for vegans and vegetarians. The cocktails were really good. Location is close to airport.

Our favorite meal during our trip. El Fogón was our favorite meal during our stay in San Pedro. Food and service was great, we ended up just eating in the bar/waiting area which worked out fine for us!

5 star experience We had an absolutely amazing experience last night at dinner. We were so glad to find this place, especially after a terrible experience the night before at Elvi's kitchen - a majorly hyped restaurant in the area, We made a reservation but had to change since water taxi from Belize city broke down. Lady at front desk got u sour tabel right away. Our server - a young gentleman was a delight. He smiled and welcomed us, told us all about veggie options and things they had run out of. He checked on us after each course - drinks, appetizers, main course, desert. We were so happy at teh service we got. Food was absolutely delicious. - Best coconut curry, best chicken kabobs, other dishes I didn't even know before. Their cake is from out of this world - not on menu but server offered. Pina colada had a flavor of mango (?) and truly unique. Absolutely a place to go. Cant wait for our next vacation and visit them again.

A Nice Surprise. We had a nice dinner at this restaurant. It is located close to the San Pedro Airport. We were warmly welcomed and seated as soon as our reservation was verified. Their conch fritters and conch soup were delicious with lots of conch bits. We enjoyed the stuffed red snapper and the whole fried fish. Both were fresh and sweet. Their house cocktails were well made. Service was excellent. Wait staff was pleasant and attentive. A great place for casual dining.

Fantastic cultural dishes Local restaurants that cooks the beef/chicken old way, over a wood fire with original seasonings. Food was fantastic; owner and staff were friendly, helpful and fun. Loved the food. Definitely would go back

Belizian Food Prepared in the Traditional Way This is an absolute must stop if you are in San Pedro Belize. The staff was wonderful and they let us see the kitchen area where the food is prepared the traditional Belizian way over coal fire. We tried the sample platter, pork and beef all seasoned to perfection. Bon Appétit!

Fantastic food! Great staff, great food and very accommodating. We will be back! It’s like eating dinner with family. Have watched this restaurant go from a very small establishment with a dirt floor to a beautiful interior with a wonderful atmosphere.
