Restaurants cuisine du monde Bogotá

An excellent restaurant of contemporary Colombian cuisine, which brings up to date the gastronomic wealth of the different regions of Colombia, especially the Pacific and the Amazon. The idea is to show the biological, cultural and culinary diversity of the country, with quality ingredients, mostly organic, supplied by isolated rural communities, with recipes rediscovered or invented by the chef Eduardo Martínez, an agronomist by training. Mini-Evil? For a lesser evil to our Mother Earth.

In front of the old side door of the cathedral (the "false door") is a tiny restaurant that is said to be the oldest in Colombia. The family that runs the establishment since its origin (1816) has kept the authentic recipes of the ancestors. It is famous for its tamal, to be enjoyed with hot chocolate, or its almojábana of yellow corn and fresh cheese, to be accompanied by an agua de panela. For a sweet treat, try the Marquesa de Guanábana.The place is small and inconvenient, but it's the heart of the Santafereña tradition!

A small restaurant that works directly with local producers, peasants and indigenous people, who use traditional methods: honey and quinoa from Boyacá, fish from the Pacific, palm heart from Putumayo, artichokes from Tábio (Cundinamarca), sea salt from La Guajira... The decoration is like a market, colorful and warm, and the Colombian cuisine is generous, with fresh products. At the back of the room, a small store that sells organic products and wine. Another Abasto at Quinta Camacho (Chapinero).

Market cuisine prepared by chef Alejandro Gutiérrez, a biologist by profession, who is very committed to the responsible use of resources and the work of small producers. The dishes are more or less elaborate, but the flavors are always refined, at reasonable prices. Attention, the menu is often rather limited compared to the restaurants of Colombia in general, but here one chooses only products of season. The setting is quite informal, you feel good. The original coffee is a delight, as are the teas and infusions.

Doña Elvira is almost a legend in Bogotá. Since 1934, it has been serving a delicious chicken stew(sancocho de gallina), as well as many other traditional Colombian dishes, especially of the Cundi-Boyacense gastronomy. Ancestral recipes handed down from generation to generation, to the delight of the regulars. Hearty, unpretentious and authentic dishes, served only for lunch, at very reasonable prices. Typical family atmosphere. Smiling service, fast and good advice (in Spanish).

In a warm setting, with an open patio, Wok is a popular address for eating Asian dishes made from regional products. A nice and long menu, where you can order a good Amazonian fruit juice while waiting to decide. This local chain is involved in several social and environmental projects, and has about 20 other locations in Bogotá, including next to the Museo Nacional, in Parque de la 93 and in Zona T. Good value for money for a change from traditional Colombian cuisine.

A sober restaurant offering refined traditional Colombian cuisine, with regional dishes of the country's coast or interior.

Leo, as in Leonor Espinoza, the country's most prestigious chef. An economist, visual artist and true anthropologist of Colombian cuisine, she offers high quality dishes, combining ancestral knowledge with contemporary values. Her new restaurant, inaugurated in 2021, is the best Colombian establishment among the 50 best restaurants in Latin America (14th in 2021), with an eight or thirteen-course menu. Laura, his daughter, an outstanding sommelier, also has her own room. A culinary journey to the heart of Colombian gastronomy awaits you!

At La Perse market, people come especially for typical breakfasts and lunches from all regions of the country. The hygienic conditions are good, the portions are copious, the welcome is warm and the quality-price-experience ratio is unbeatable! At Luz Dary's, nicknamed "Mamá Luz", they prepare the best ajiaco santafereño in Bogotá. When leaving the market, avoid venturing further up the Perseverencia neighborhood, which is not very safe.

One of the oldest restaurants in the capital, in operation since 1902. A must to discover the traditional Colombian cuisine, in a rustic setting, from another time. You can come for a cuchuco con espinazo (pork stew with barley and beans), a mazamorra chiquita (rib soup with cow's tripe), a tamal to drink with a hot chocolate, empanadas (the best in the capital, they say!), or simply delicious pandeyucas

Over the past two decades, Di Lucca has established its reputation as one of the most iconic Italian restaurants in the capital. There are now three Di Lucca's, this one is located next to the Andino shopping center. The interior decoration is original and the small terrace very pleasant to savor its scampi with tomato and to observe the life of this rather smart district. Delicious and generous pizzas, delicious pastas and risottos and reasonable prices for the area. Delivery service is also very efficient.

This modern, sophisticated address opened its doors in 2023. Its bold, gourmet cuisine harmoniously combines flavors, colors and textures. Here, the chef strives to offer accessible, generous and creative cuisine. On the menu: fettuccini with lobster, shrimp, octopus, cumin and parmesan, salmon fillet on apple purée, roasted shiitakes and sweet peas or sesame-crusted tuna on ginger and carrot purée with manioc croquettes and passion fruit. We can't get enough!
