The best restaurants Cusco

A small comforting address where you can find sandwiches and burgers with fresh and local products. Lots of choices for every hunger, many vegetarian options also based on quinoa, lentils or local dried beans. The fries are made with different varieties of regional potatoes. The ice creams are a sweet nod to local fruits: sauco, maracuya or chirimoya... A small address well located in the heart of San Blas, with some tables outside. Unpretentious, but with an original menu and a smiling service.

Here you are promised a "Nuna Raymi" literally a "Party of the Soul" and the place does not lack it. The room is large, bright, with welcome little plants and many nods to local culture such as the emoliente cart. In the plates, a fresh cuisine, based on local and creative products. We revisit the classics by combining alpaca with Mediterranean flavors, flaming aji de gallina with pisco or accompanying trout with fruity flavors. Excellent desserts also or churros at snack time. Very nice.

Here, we offer a versatile cuisine that respects its culture of origin and honors the name chosen for this restaurant "sagrado" or sacred in French. The best local products are served here with international techniques to propose a trout withaguaymanto sauce or an alpaca steak with blue sauce. The decoration and the atmosphere also bet on the wink: raw materials, a contemporary design and superb quipus or other geometrical lines inspired by the Incas. Very good reception and attentive service. Nice.

In this small alley that winds through the heart of bohemian San Blas, you'll find this cozy little bistro that serves homemade brunch in the morning and, at the end of the day, artisanal pasta and thin-crusted pizzas cooked over a wood fire as they should be.

A menu that comforts and warms the traveler. Come and sit down, you won't be disappointed.

Good quality.

Seledonia is a little woman who practices her chef's skills with her family and creates tasty local cuisine.
