La Taverne Sucre — Restaurant in Municipio Sucre

Despite a good reputation, we visited it on the wrong day

-19.046648°, -65.259312° On Calle Aniceto, look for the “Alliance Français” sign and enter an alley to a courtyard and turn 180° to see the entrance. The menu has a French touch and there are excellent daily specials, including hearty Argentinian steaks and filet mignon, as well as a good wine selection. In short, this restaurant offers formal dining on tablecloths with a tasty menu and professional service. Friends have recommended this restaurant for its quiet and cozy atmosphere and culinary performance.

In April 2025 we ordered the daily special Entrecôte Café Paris (118BS) with high expectations. The house wine (Merlot) (25BS) was good. The service seemed to be top notch but forgot the steak knife. From the beginning, the entrecôte was impossible to cut with normal cutlery. The steak knives did not succeed either. The entrecôte contained many hard parts that could not be eaten hard parts. We did not return the entrecôte to the kitchen to postpone the dinner for the others. But we had seen enough and concluded the daily special suffered a quality supply chain problem and the chef did not intervene. We left without dessert.

Our friends were disappointed that La Traverne had not...

Well, now we have tried this restaurant two times! And I have to say this is the best place in Sucre - and what realy made this place fantastic was the VERY nice and super friendly service of miss. Alejandra - she was so attending, well noticing and generally just VERY professionel in her performance! And we have attended Many Many restaurants around the world! We will Dream of this place! Thank you!!

So, sorry - now we tried this place for the 3. time - and even though miss. Ajejandra promissed both me and my wife something “special” for my wifes birthday tonight, she ignored us during all evening…… - and just smiled to us when trying to get her attention….. - even after staying more than 3 hours at the restaurant!

Dont try to be nice and friendly - if you cant or wont want to live up to it!!

Bad bad behavior - and absolutely not...

What a meal.

We went for dinner here and to be honest I had low expectations for a French restaurant in Sucre, but wow. We had the French onion soup, Steak with Roquefort sauce and Fettuccine del Mar all of which were excellent. Desserts were great too.

We chose one of the cheapest wines on the menu (we're backpackers) and it was also excellent.

Also decent coffees.

And yeah, it's expensive for Bolivia, but it's still cheaper than Europe and just as good if not better.

Easily one of the best meals we've had in South America to date and we've been to a lot of places...

Also the side salad of lettuce with raw onion dressed in mustard really reminded me of a Big Mac,...
