Cicciolina

$$$ | Triunfo Fodor's Choice

Everyone seems to know everyone at this second-floor eatery, part lively tapas bar, part sit-down, candlelit restaurant. The tapas are delicious and varied, while the main dishes offer fabulous Mediterranean cuisine with twists from the Andes. You can order off the restaurant menu in the tapas bar, but not the other way around.

Reservations are very strongly encouraged.

Uchu

$$$

You could easily just feast on tasty appetizers at this upscale, minimalist-design spot, but you'd be missing out on the real highlight—an entrée cooked at your table on a heated volcanic stone. Choice, fresh selections of beef, alpaca, fish, chicken, and shrimp are brought to your table seared on the outside, allowing you to complete cooking them to your personal preference. Unlike other table-side cooking techniques, there's no smoke or strong odor to follow you home.
