My family from out of town, my family, and friends went to brunch at Panza Verde. It was amazing! Everything was delicious! Our eggs benedict with portobello mushrooms were out of this world. Their mimosas are very good. The staff was extremely accommodating. As we were a big group, we needed to shuffle around some tables. There was no problem with doing that. Overall a great experience and will definitely be back!!

Fine Dining inspired in Guatemala. After years of work in world-renowned restaurants, the Chilean Chef Rodrigo Salvo opens the doors of a new gastronomic proposal "Quiltro" is a first class restaurant in Antigua Guatemala. Each of the dishes is inspired b

Reviewed By Zarquito

The fresh, creative, and memorable dishes at Quiltro are delightfully quixotic, in no small part because of how unexpectedly unique the combinations of otherwise simple flavors were in each dish. The chef and his team masterfully combined typical/traditional Guatemalan ingredients and flavors in a way that tastes simultaneously familiar and exotic. This is not a meal that will blow your tastebuds away; it’s better than that. It’s a meal that’s notable because of its subtleness, extreme attention to detail, thoughtful presentation, and purity of form and flavor. What a delightful find in Antigua!!

Just off the Plaza Central, this place had excellent food and top notch service. The atmosphere is friendly and inviting and we felt right at home. For the gringo travelers, the menu is in English and the waiters speak passable English. Highly recommend it!

I was here for a repeat visit and it was just as delicious. It is the tiniest place. Make a reservation because you will need it. The menu is a little more extensive this year. If you sit upstairs be prepared to climb the stairs. But that is half the fun. Thanks for a great dinner!

Reviewed By vhdesantis

My husband and I came here for dinner. The restaurant is beautifully decorated. We got margaritas, grilled octopus, and chicken tacos. The food was good. Service also good. The only thing I didn’t like is that they let outside vendors come in. There was a little boy selling candy table to table. The music was also shut off for a few minutes while a guy with a karaoke machine sang loudly in the front and then came around asking for money. Maybe this is common in other restaurants too, or they didn’t have much of a choice, but either way it made the experience not as great. Hello, thank you for your kind review! I am very pleased you liked our food and margaritas. Indeed it’s difficult for us the vendors problem. I do think is a problem but sometimes even some clients call them and it’s embarrassing for us to send them out. With this review I definitely will put more attention to this problem. Thank you very much!Maggie

Restaurante La Cabana de Don Robert

Reviewed By heyjudithz

The grounds of this place are beautifully landscaped with tropical plants and flowers; there is a nice playground for children on the lawn. You can smell the delicacies cooking in the outdoor smoker. Some of the cleanest restrooms you will ever behold are just outside the dining room. Inside is an ambience and warmth you would find in the home of a friend. Monica and company are SO welcoming and nice. Her parents are from Switzerland and she speaks several languages. The wine selection is better than most, and they have the little splits which are perfect for lunch. The local cuisine is out of this world, tasty, and excellent. I had some scrumptious chicken and my companions had beef. We started out with a tasty home made soup. I would love to go back there and try other menu items.
