  • 1. Cocina Sabor

    $$

    Succulents populate the restaurant’s patio, as do Orange Walk residents and a smattering of tourists who know a good food joint when they find it. The reasonably priced menu is a mix of mestizo and other Belizean favorites and includes flavors such as coconut rum salsa and ginger-citrus glaze that give Belizean classics an energetic twist. Come on Thursday for popular Dollah Wing Day or any night for dreamy frozen mojitos. Simply put, this is one of the best and most pleasant places to eat in town.

  • 2. Corozo Blue's

    $$

    This popular eatery in a stone building on the bay at the South End serves excellent wood-fired pizza, burgers, sandwiches, and ceviche, plus a few traditional Belizean dishes like rice and beans. By Corozal standards, prices are on the high side, but the atmosphere, bayside setting, and friendly staff make it well worth a visit.

    This seafood restaurant is the go-to dining option for both visitors and locals in Sarteneja. Sitting across the street from the Caribbean Sea, Crabby's offers stunning views of the bay and the many fishing boats lining up the shore. Seating is mostly outdoor, with a rustic yet homey feel. Grilled lobster (when in season), shrimp and fish fillet accompany heaps of rice and beans for lunch. Lunch special changes daily and the restaurant is open for breakfast and dinner, too. Come for the views and stay for the richly whipped desserts of frappes and homemade ice cream.

  • 4. La Piccola Pizzeria

    $$

    Canadian-owned La Piccola Pizzeria serves some of the best pizza and BBQ with farm-fresh ingredients. Operating on a "farm-to-fork" approach, La Piccola's menu changes weekly. But the new dishes are always impressive takes on traditional Italian recipes. For dessert, expect made-from-scratch creamy ice cream and candied fruit. Located just outside of Corozal town on the road toward Consejo, La Piccola's atmosphere is a rustic charm with warm hospitality. Once a week, a poker night to benefit local charities is hosted.

The café's air-conditioned indoor area is artfully decorated, complete with cozy corners and spacious booths. While good old-fashioned Americanos are their signature, Maria's most popular drinks include frappuccinos and refreshing teas, serving as a respite from the Belizean heat. Visit during special occasions for creative seasonal drinks and pair with fluffy croissants or a toasted panini.

  • 6. Nahil Mayab

    $$

    Orange Walk Town may be the last place you'd expect to find an upscale restaurant like this, with its Maya-inspired decor, well-prepared food, and extra-friendly servers. Nonetheless, it opened here, on a corner behind the Shell station, to rave reviews. Sit in the tropical gardens in the back and admire the jungle-esque foliage, or sit in air-conditioned comfort in the main dining room and enjoy a cold drink and a delicious shrimp or conch (in season) ceviche appetizer. For a main course try the curry ginger shrimp or one of the Yucatán-inspired dishes such as poc chuc, grilled pork sauteed with onion and sweet pepper and served with corn tortillas. 

    Guadeloupe and Santa Ana Sts., Orange Walk Town, Orange Walk, Belize
    613--0924

    Known For

    • Charming atmosphere
    • Rice and beans with stew chicken (it sells out at lunch)
    • Friendly staff

  • 7. Patty's Bistro

    $$

    Patty's Bistro (sometimes spelled Patti's) serves some of the best food in town, the service is sprightly and friendly, the atmosphere is no-frills, and prices are low. For a local treat, try the hearty conch soup (in season, usually October to late April).

  • 8. The Deck

    $$

    The Deck has established itself as the go-to hangout spot offering locally influenced tapas and innovative cocktails ever since it opened in 2021 under new management. The alfresco dining makes it easy to admire the tranquil views of the New River. Sit on a wooden lounge chair while waiting for your smoked wings to arrive and admire the sunset views. While the food preparation may take a while, it'll be worth it once you dig into the generous portions of appetizers ranging from seasoned Spanish-style croquetas, spicy chipotle dip, and peel-and-eat shrimps.

    303--1318
