Balcon de Imbabura is located at the Plaza de Ponchos. From the second floor it overlooks the plaza. This small restaurant serves Mexican style food at reasonable prices. We started with the nachos con carne and had burritos that were good. The pork ribs/ chop were just pork smothered in BBQ sauce and not great. The service was good and the food was alright. I'd give Balcon de Imbabura a solid "Good". The location is perfect after a busy time shopping, but there are better restaurants a little further away from the Plaza.

The bar "The Red Pub" is a fantastic place to spend time with friends."The Red Pub" is located more or less in the center of Otavalo and it is worth taking a walk to have a nice time at this place. Eating here a good burger is the best so the prices are local prices and not the tourist prices that many restaurants are doing! It is also a good place to spend a good night the music is nice and noisy! Good prices and service.It has cheap beers, big and cheap delicious nachos with cheese and guacamole and best of all: great music! Great Enchants 80 and 90 on the TV, and the staff is cool. The owners buy everything from local businesses that are around the place. The workers are very nice and offer a good deal. It is a good place for foreigners as residents of Otavalo who wish to have a good time with their friends or loved ones.In fact - all you can ask for in a bar!

On my first two visits I thoroughly enjoyed my meals - delicious combination plates with some of the tastiest guacamole. In fact, the food was so good, I make the trip from Ibarra to Otavalo specifically to eat here. This time, I wasnât as enamored with the food. I had a combination plate (half chicken, half beef). The beef was dry and tough; the chicken was good until I bit into several small pieces of bone! The guacamole was still very good. Service was (and always has been) very friendly with English spoken. Prices are quite reasonable.
4. MIstic Tacos
Reviewed By AbuelitaSuzy
We miss good Mexican food and have found it nearby! The Mistic Tacos serves great enchiladas, burritos and fajitas. Salsas are authentic. There is also Ecuadoran lunch specials in addition to the a la carte menu of Mexican treats. The patio is a fun environment, with typical decorations. I understand the owners lived in southern California for several years.
5. Las Ricas Tortillas De Diablo Calle
Reviewed By Eva v
Can you imagine getting a really good dinner, with the best carne colorado ever and a drink, for $2.02? Plus tip, of course. There was no menu, as there's only one dish. there was no advertising, as the line to get into this restaurant every Saturday night stretches down the block. There was no parking, as the streets were lined with wannabee customers' cars; so you had better walk (which in Cotacachi is no problem).Las Ricas Tortillas has the reputation of serving the best carne colorado anywhere, using a special method of slicing the pork meat thin and letting it absorb the best of the achiote spicing for quite a while before the final cooking. Served with rice, a fried egg, veggies and the delightful potato "tortillas"--more like a potato cake--this meal will satisfy pretty well any appetite. Sodas and beer are available to whet your whistle. The plates may be plastic but the food is pure gold. Delicious!The chef is a lady I didn't meet, since she was probably up to her eyeballs in managing the kitchen of this old house, which has been converted to dining space for just Saturday nights. Sundays, La Jefa serves at the Andes Market, and then nothing happens until the next Saturday. I can't guarantee the prices, of course, but you may sure this bit of fine dining won't break the bank, nor will you be hungry afterwards.
