El Sereno

Fodor's Review:

One of Antigua's original elegant restaurants is in a 16th-century house near La Merced church a few blocks north of the Parque Central. The place is huge and does a brisk event business, but offers plenty of secluded tables for intimate, candlelight dinners. Lunch is served in the downstairs courtyard; dinner expands to the upstairs terrace with stupendous mountain and city views, and gorgeous end-of-day sunsets. The menu changes every few months, but always consists of a mix of Guatemalan and international fare – perhaps a three-meat pepián, or a tarragon leg of lamb with a mango shrimp salad on the side.
