April 10, 2020 Lashaunda Abraham

Reviews on International food in Panajachel, Western Highlands, Guatemala. Panajachel (Spanish pronunciation: [panaxaˈtʃel], Pana) is a town in the southwestern Guatemalan Highlands, less than 90 miles from Guatemala City, in the department of Sololá. It serves as the administrative centre for the surrounding municipality of the same name. The elevation is 1,597 metres (5,240 ft). Population was 11 thousand in the 2000 census, estimated as 15,000 now (Insituto Nacional de Estadística de Guatemala), and has approximately doubled each of the last few decades. The town of Panajachel is located on the Northeast shore of Lake Atitlán, and has become a centre for the tourist trade of the area as it provides a base for visitors crossing the lake to visit other towns and villages.

A small Tiki-Shack setting at the top of Santander and Calle Principal. The Curry Chicken and Vegetarian sandwiches are very tasty and filling. Freshly made, the owner clearly is proud of the quality of his fare. We certainly appreciated the new options. There are always drink prices, and delivery is available direct to your hotel/address for only the Q5 cost of the tuk tuk that delivers it.

place specializes in Pizza, Pasta, Bar and many other dishes, a large menu. Open for lunch and closes at midnight, musical entertainment starts are around 8:00pm will closing. Service is friendly. One of the owners ( partners ) is always there as well as Manager to make sure all works properly. Most of the staff has been there for years. They have different musicians on a rotating basies each day of the week. Prices are reasonable

Reviewed By uclatraveler9

I appreciate how quick they are here. The food is decent. I had pizza once, which was fine. The individual is pretty big! I also had chicken tacos, which were good. Prices are decent- comparable to other places in Pana.They also have a gate that means there are fewer handicraft vendors coming inside.They reluctantly accepted my credit card, but prefer cash payment. Nothing unique about this place, but it's a safe choice with lots of variety.

It is difficult to find quality vegetarian foods that are flavorful and filling. I ate here a few times while visiting Lake Atitlan, and was so pleasantly surprised by the delicious options! The vegetarian crepe, vegetarian lasagna and cheese plate (with a super tasty sauce) were to die for! The ambiance is top notch- relaxed, good music, friendly staff and am amazing view overlooking the lake. Also, a great place to meet fellow travelers and talk. Cannot say enough good things about this place (both the bed and breakfast and the restaurant!). I would love to visit again one day!Katie, thank you very much for the informative review. I’m glad you enjoyed it. We’re continuin to explore various vegetarian options. It was lovely having you here and I certainly hope you guys come again!

Had a good night out at Pana Rock as we enjoyed the live music and happy hour drinks. Ended up having breakfast here the day after (needed quick wifi) and that was rather disappointing. Took a long time and food itself was only so so. Conclusion; great for a night out but eat somewhere else.

I went to Hotel Atitlan for drinks and dinner. The bartender was attentive and the drink menu is extensive. The dinner menu consists of Guatemalan and international dishes, so travelers from all over should be able to find something suitable to eat. Wonderful dessert menu to top it all off! Guatemala is not known for its cuisine, but this restaurant makes up for it with top-notch service, a beautiful view, nice ambiance, and a good selection.
