  • 1. Asha's Culture Kitchen

    $$

    In a rustic wood shack built right over the water, Asha's has the best views of any restaurant in Punta Gorda. Asha's specializes in fresh seafood served Creole style, such as fried conch with mashed potatoes or grilled snapper with plantains and beans and rice. The menu changes daily. Stake out a place in the main dining room or on the breezy deck and look across the Gulf of Honduras toward Guatemala.

    651–8366

    Known For

    • Solid Creole cooking

  • 2. Gomier's Restaurant

    $$

    Count your lucky stars if you find Gomier’s open—the owner doesn’t always follow his posted hours—and enjoy an excellent vegetarian or vegan meal from organic ingredients grown locally, along with some seafood. Go with the vegetarian dish of the day, which could be stir-fried tofu or vegan spaghetti. Fresh seafood dishes, such as shrimp curry, sometimes are available. Garifuna hudut (green and ripe mashed plantains with fish and coconut stew) lunches are on Friday, and there's live music or documentary movies some nights. Prices are reasonable. The owner also offers tofu-making and cooking classes.

  • 3. Mangrove Restaurant

    $$

    No pretense here—instead, you're seated on the second-floor veranda of the chef-owner's house across the street from the water in Cattle Landing village just northeast of Punta Gorda. You'll find different dishes every evening but usually with a choice of seafood (snapper, snook, or shrimp) or a hearty dish like a thick pork chop or lasagna. It's all delicious and inexpensive, and it's BYOB so bring your own beer or rum. Because it's a little away from the main downtown area, most guests are local residents or expats, not tourists.

    Southern Hwy., Punta Gorda, Toledo, Belize
    623–0497

    Known For

    • Terrific prices
    • BYOB
    • Friendly local vibe
