Tegucigalpa Restaurants

Tegucigalpa has a few outstanding restaurants, although not as many as you'd expect in a city of one million people. You'll find a good selection along Boulevard Morazán and in Colonia Palmira, to the east of Barrio El Centro. It's an up-and-coming area for dining and drinking with the smart and trendy crowd. A few other restaurants have sprung up on the outer fringes of the city, and you'll find a couple of old standbys downtown, too. All the U.S. chains are here if you get a hankering for something from back home.

  • 1. Café Paradiso

    $ | Barrio El Centro | Latin American

    That just might be the ghost of Che Guevara plotting the next revolution off in the corner of this unpretentious little coffeehouse with a slightly political bent. Paradiso serves local beverage specialties, but is best known for its carajillo (coffee with cognac). The food is basic but filling, with locals leaning toward favorites like the tortilla española (Spanish omelet). While you wait, peruse the selection of books on Honduran history and politics, or stop by on Thursday evenings when a film is screened.

  • 2. Carnes El Español

    $ | Latin American

    You smell the sizzling chorizo and carnitas (chunks of beef) cooked by Don Manolo even before you see his popular restaurant.

    Parque Central, Valle de Ángeles, Francisco Morazán, Honduras
  • 3. El Anafre

    $ | Latin American

    This restaurant is named for a traditional Honduran mush of refried beans, cream, and cheese served with tortilla chips in a clay container, but don't be misled: other items on the menu, the pastas and pizzas in particular, are good here, too. It's a great place to down a beer, as it is often open until 10 or later.

  • 4. El Patio

    $$$ | Col. Palmira | Latin American

    Tegucigalpa's best-known Honduran restaurant dishes up ample helpings of típico (traditional) food. The rustic building with brick patio evokes an old Honduran country home. You can watch your food being prepared on the open grill, with pinchos (Honduran-style chicken, beef, or pork kebabs) being special favorites here. It's all accompanied by anafres, a dip of refried beans and cheese. The waitstaff wear traditional Honduran clothing (think white dresses and pants with thin, colorful stripes).

  • 5. La Florida

    $$$ | Latin American

    A combination pony farm, playground, and miniature zoo, La Florida is a popular place for families and weekend events. There is a restaurant with typical Honduran beef and chicken dishes, as well as anafres of refried beans and cheese. The outdoor area has a small swimming pool, children's playground, and sand volleyball, as well as shaded picnic and dining areas. Don't miss the L10 pony rides, if you belong to the under-10 age bracket. There is a very large stable of ponies and horses, and they offer trail rides for adults as well. In the back is a small zoo with the white-tailed deer of Honduras and a tapir, as well as many birds.

  • 6. La Terraza de Don Pepe

    $ | Barrio El Centro | Latin American

    How many restaurants keep a shrine to the Virgin Mary on their premises? At the entrance to the restrooms, no less? This downtown eatery does. The statue of the Virgin of Suyapa, Honduras's patron saint, appeared wrapped in newspaper in Don Pepe's men's room one night in 1986. A miracle or a drop-off by a thief? You can decide Standard Honduran fare—hearty chicken, beef, and pork dishes—are served here; the lunchtime plato del día, a combination of meat, rice, and vegetables, includes a beverage and is a good bargain.
