“ Located in the awesome Pensativo House Hotel, this restaurant has an awesome view of the nearby volcano and serves up tasty breakfast, lunch and dinner. Portions of everything are big and the ingredients fresh. I loved their roast pork sandwich and NY breakfast. For those who want to dine inside, they have an upscale dining room and options to eat in the courtyard. Make this a stop on your visit to Antigua. ”

“ Delicious and elegant. This is an astounding level of splendor. Every part of the meal was excellent and perfectly presented. The restaurant is beautiful. The service is outstanding. And the prices are notably low compared to the states. This meal would have cost 3 times as much back home ”

- JRob Zetelumen -
