  • 1. Raíces Bar and Grill

    $

    Grilled meats come piping hot off the parrilla (grill) and give this palapa restaurant swagger. Tacos with practically an artist's palette of sauces are also popular, and the steamed fish is excellent. Raíces is built over the water, so with friends, a margarita in hand, and the lake framing it all, you'll have a good time. You can also take a boat ride from the restaurant out to Raíces Del Lago for a special dining experience from another vantage point on the lake.

  • 3. Restaurante Gonzalez

    $

    If you're looking for delicious, authentic, homemade Guatemalan food at great prices you've come to the right place. There's a good chance your whitefish was caught from the lake that morning, and the tortillas are homemade with pride. The grilled chicken is mouthwatering, and the soup is a must-try on a cooler day. The thatch-roofed open-air restaurant is nothing fancy, but you'll get attentive service—and breakfast, lunch, and dinner all hit the spot.

    Rd. PET-3 Caoba, El Remate, Petén, Guatemala
    3131--6249

    Known For

    • Homemade tortillas and charcoal grilled chicken
    • Warm and welcoming chef/owner
    • Fresh, healthy juices like hibiscus and passionfruit
