Upper Scale, my favorite is the Los Arcos Hotel Main Dining Room. Also have a great bar on the 2nd floor that is has a nice view of the activities
outside.
When will you being going? We will be in La Paz the 8 -18th of April.
When searching for the end of your rainbow you only have until dusk....

Hi Tim
We will be a group of 10 (including 2 toddlers) there April 9th-16th. Where are you staying?
We were just discussing "popular" restaurants that we would NOT go back to again this year and wondering of some new ones to check out. I agree with
you on Los Arcos restaurant (bermejo's is it?) great meal at a reasonable price.

I second or third the recommendation for Bermejos in the Los Arcos Hotel. For good Italian food, good service, and a nice atmosphere, as you leave
the Los Arcos turn left, go to the first corner, turn left again, go 1/2 block, and try La Pazta.

La Paz eateries
There is a new restaurant at the end of the waterfront walkway by the pink condos, the food is very good prices average, the owner a gringo will say
the margaritas are the best not true forget it.

BB75 are you the group that is staying out at La Concha? We are staying at the Los Arcos. We will have 2 of our kids with us this trip (girls 12
and 13).
Possibly the best sanwich (Torta) I have ever had. Walk out of the front of the La Perla, make a right, at the end of the hotel (at the plaza) turn
right, at the end of the plaza cross the street and turn left. Less than a 1/2 block down you will come to a small Torta shop. Prices, food, and
owners can not be beat.

Ken, we didn't like La Pazta, but maybe ordering pizza was not the right thing to order there? People rave about it but we didn't think it was that
great, maybe we should try again? Any menu suggestions??
Tim, yes we are that same group at La Concha, (I am sometimes so rushed on and off the computer that I forget my handle!) we are vacation club members
and this year we're accelerating some of our time and taking friends and family (some from LA, SD, NY and Oregon!) with us! Still haven't figured out
our transportation but need to do something as we are getting down to the wire!
Come meet us for a margarita on the beach!

sorry you didn't care for it. I don't think I have ever had pizza there. My recollection is that their veal and chicken dishes were good. But I
confess, it's probably been 2 years since I've been there.

If you are looking for good homemade fresh Italian, go to Milano next to the French Bistro. Try their homemade sausage..chorizo. Since I tried it, I
have not been able to force myself to order anything else. The chef/owner is a charming lady.

Judy, I'm with you on the chateaubriand at bermejos!
Is La Fonda the place a few blocks in from the malecon that makes the fabulous caesar salad at the table, it's upstairs overlooking the street? I
remember a place a few years ago that was GREAT but couldn't find it last time....

The place referred to as the place by the pink condos is called "Capri." They have good food but great fruity drinks. The view of downtown, the
malecon, and the bay cannot be beat. I especially like it in the summer. Its one of the only places that gets a good breeze.
