Red Koi Guatemala — Restaurant in Sacatepéquez

AUTHENTIC! The owner is Taiwanese and definitely brought Taiwanese flavor to Central America of all places! Yes he speaks fluent Spanish as well! I am from the states and we have lots of Taiwanese food. I can say this place is very authentic. I talked to the owner and as of August 2022 the sit-in restaurant is still closed as business is still recovering from CoViD restrictions. He says he aims to have the sit-in area opened by November. The place is located in a more quiet part of Antigua. So parking shouldn’t be an issue. I got the Beef Chow-fun style noodles and an order of Taiwanese style dumplings. Both were very good and tasty! I will definitely be back to try...

Red Koi is a good restaurant on the south side of Antigua. The restaurant itself is very small, only a handful of tables in there which was nice. The peppered beef noodles were our favorite from what we got, but the noodles were a bit thinner than how they looked on the menu and in other’s photos. The dumplings, and chili chicken were both good as well.

It took almost an hour to get our food after we ordered despite there only being only one other table seated. They said was because they had lots of uber eats orders coming in…

Overall this restaurant was good but not as special as some would make it seem through...

Another review said it’s better than the food in Taiwan and I’ve never been but I fully believe it’s better than any beef noodle soup in existence in or out of Asia. If the opinion of a white man means nothing to you, my Asian boyfriend is also losing his mind over this soup. The chilli chicken also slaps. If your not in Antigua, find a where to get here and eat this food right now. I would miss my own mothers funeral for one more sniff of...
