This is probably the most upscale restaurant you’ll find in the area, perfect for a special occasion. The prices are so much higher than other restaurants, even the more upscale ones, but the food quality is truly fantastic.
We had been staying just outside of Urubamba for about a month and mostly eating at really small local places or cooking our own food, but my husband and I decided to have a few nice meals out before leaving Peru.
When we first walked in and we were greeted in English by the owner, and he immediately assured us that the water and ice and salad could be trusted, I was nervous that it was much too touristy and not a place I’d enjoy.
