  • 1. El Nuevo Progreso

    $$$

    The food, from steak to quinoa salad, is superb; the wine list is fairly priced; and the wooden floors, whimsical lights, and artwork make the space appealing. What's more, some evenings around 9:30 there's live music, generally performed by friends of the owners. El Nuevo Progreso is right in the center of town, with windows looking out across the small plaza.

    Lavalle 351, Tilcara, Jujuy, 4624, Argentina

    Known For

    • Traditional dishes with a modern twist
    • Friendly, on-the-ball service
    • Abundant portions
  • 2. José Balcarce

    $$$

    A group of chefs launched a restaurant and catering service with high Andean cuisine as its goal—"high" referring to both the altitude and the gourmet techniques. The result is José Balcarce, in a brick-and-wood building with large windows just two blocks from bustling Balcarce Street. The menu is short, and the service can be slow, but the creative dishes—using local ingredients such as quinoa and llama—are delicious.

  • 3. Los Morteros

    $$$

    For a contemporary spin on regional delicacies, head to Los Morteros. The llama in Malbec, fresh grilled trout, and succulent lamb stew are all noteworthy picks; this busy spot also cooks up a sizzling barbecue worth ordering for its smell alone. Reservations are a good idea.  Check out Los Morteros' wine cellar—it mostly stocks regional wines made at high altitudes.

  • 4. Los Puestos

    $$$

    A poetic narrative in the menu describes this place as "a haven for parched travelers," along the lines of the watering holes used for centuries by local shepherds. Top picks include empanadas baked in the oven right by the entrance and a llama fillet served with orange sauce and colorful Andean potatoes. They also cook up great asado (barbecue).
