Best location in downtown, next to the Parroqui location, beautiful interior design with amazing views. Food is exquisite of course! The staff are equally as attentive and friendly here as Pueblo Viejo and La Azotea - definitely one of my favourite places in San Miguel.

Drinks & Nightlife

La Azotea, located just steps away from the jardin, is a wonderful place to be at sunset. The views are very pretty, especially of the convent and the parroquia. The décor is upscale-casual and trendy, with mostly table seating but also some couch/banquette seating. It’s also very fun late night, when they often have a DJ – which makes it very popular with an international crowd of hipsters. Their bar menu - which is served until closing - is actually quite good. We eat there often - and not just in the evenings since they're also open for lunch. We love the shrimp jicama tacos, and the ciabattas, and pretty much everything they serve.
