1. Abis Patio
$$ | |A more relaxed version of Abis Café on the plaza, this is the city’s go-to gourmet burger spot, with some fine home-brewed beers to boot. The extremely social and omnipresent owner doesn’t stop there though. He blows the socks off guests with his barbecue ribs and chocolate milk shakes. There is happiness for the whole family to be had here, and the bill at the end will be a pleasant surprise, considering the high-quality ingredients used throughout. The patio out back is the best place to while away a couple of hours with high-speed Wi-Fi and one of those beers.
Juan Jose Perez 366, Sucre, Chuquisaca, Bolivia04-646--7738 -
2. Café de la Plata
$$ | |Set in a beautiful building right on the main plaza, this is the perfect spot to warm up after a day of visiting churches. Stop in for a glass of wine and a snack, or coffee and cake. The service is not great, but the food and drinks are above the rather low standard set in the city. Prices are in line with the very tourist central location.
Plaza 10 de Noviembre, Potosí, Potosí, Bolivia02-622--6085 -
3. Café Florin
$$ | |More pub than restaurant, Florin is a good choice for a night out if you're looking for a fun crowd and atmosphere. The food is not the main draw, but generally delivers as long as you’re not expecting the very best. The menu is all over the place, jumping from moussaka to pad thai; be sure to try the house craft beers from Ted’s brewery. The service is sluggish at best, and as the evening goes on, you’ll find the place gets very smoky.
Calle Bolivar 567, Sucre, Chuquisaca, Bolivia04-645--1313 -
4. Café Gourmet Mirador
$$ | |The best views in the city belong to this little café just below the Recoleta mirador. Stop in for a cold beer or sandwich to help you while away an hour or so while taking it all in. Surprisingly, the prices aren’t much higher than any other place in the city, but the Mirador doesn’t quite escape the curse of unfulfilled potential. The tables outside and the garden could use a little more TLC, and the service is not stellar. The menu is average, but the pastas and sandwiches are decent. Inside, there is Wi-Fi and a little counter by the window with board games, perfect for a bottle of wine and a sunset (closes at 7:30 pm).

5. Cafe Monterosso
$$ | |This is Italian food exactly how you hope to find it: the hard-to-find family-home-turned-restaurant, the charming, effervescent owner, and the mother as master chef working her magic in the kitchen. Every dish is comfort-food bliss; the fresh pasta is simply perfect.

6. Cherry's Salon de Te
$$ | |Decent Wi-Fi and breakfast are pretty much all this little coffee shop has going for it, as service has slowed to a painful crawl over the years and the decor is almost completely without personality. If you go for breakfast, order the pancake stack or a healthy bowl of muesli. Some of the sweet cakes and desserts are tasty, so you might also stop in for a mid-morning snack and a cup of refreshing mate de coca (herbal tea).

7. Gattopardo
$$ | |The most popular of the restaurants on the main plaza, Gattopardo always has a lively buzz. If you can get a table on the sidewalk in between Tarija's trendy and well-to-do, it makes for a perfect place to people-watch, particularly in the evenings, with a glass of local wine. The food doesn't test the imagination much, with pretty standard international fare, but it's well done, and not overpriced for the location. Don't stray much beyond salads, pastas, or burgers.
Tarija, Tarija, Bolivia04-663--0656 -
8. Joy Ride Cafe
$$ | |As the name suggests, this is a young, lively bar catering mostly to a student and backpacker crowd, making it one of the best choices for a sociable night out—probably involving shots—near the plaza. They also run mountain biking and hiking trips, which can be organized in the office next door. The food won't change your life, and it is a bit pricey, but the tapas do the job and they offer a great range of beers. Grab a seat on the patio or in the upstairs lounge where films are shown every evening.
Nicolás Ortiz 14, Sucre, Chuquisaca, Bolivia04-642--5544Restaurant Details
Rate Includes: Credit cards accepted -
9. La Patisserie
$$ | |If you need a coffee break after a long day visiting museums, this is the perfect spot. Sweet crepes or cakes are finely done by the French owner, and the coffee is well made. Best of all, it's just half a block from the central plaza.
Grau 458, Sucre, Chuquisaca, Bolivia7117--8844 -
10. Phisqa Warmis
$$ | |Colorful and friendly, this is easily the most inviting restaurant in town, with a varied, tasty, and mostly local menu. The staff are attentive (by Potosí standards), and there is a nice mix of locals and tourists. There are good quinoa-based options for those who want to eat light, or the pique macho (a heaping dish of beef and sausage chunks, stacked with fries, boiled eggs, and a chili-and-onion sauce) for those who want to try one of the best, although very meat-heavy, local dishes. The best deal is the daily three-course lunch menu.
Calle Sucre 55, Potosí, Potosí, Bolivia02-622--5067 -
11. Pickles
$$ | |A little restaurant with loads of personality—a treat in this city—Pickles feels a bit like a '90s rock-and-roll roll dive bar, complete with walls decorated with signatures and notes from a whole world of visitors. The menu is short but full of great dishes. The picante de día (usually some variation on a spicy stew) makes a great, warming lunch option, and the Milanesa (breaded beef cutlet) or pork ribs will hit the spot later at night as the bar swings into full flow. It's a little shabby, but it's fun, and well worth the visit.

12. Plaza Mayor
$$ | |For those who are hesitant to eat at the market but want to try local food, Plaza Mayor offers a full range of traditional Tarijeño dishes in a cool and comfortable environment. Just a block from the main plaza, it is a pleasant, family-style restaurant with a few nice touches in the decor. The service, although not lightning fast, is friendly, and the food is delicious. There are enough interesting dishes to warrant more than one visit. There is also a good selection of local wines and cheeses.
