Zig Zag Restaurant

$$ Fodor's Choice

Everything here—from its grand iron spiral staircase (built by Gustave Eiffel) and sillar stone walls to its Novo Andino cuisine, extensive wine list, and decadent desserts—is done with exquisite detail and attention. The menu, using a fusion of gourmet techniques from the Alps and Andes, is a harmonious mix of fresh local foods. Try the quinoa potato gnocchi (served with your own choice of mushroom or meat sauce), the meat fondue, or the notable Trios, a prime cut of three meats: alpaca, ostrich, and beef, slow-cooked and served on a hot stone with three dipping sauces. You'll want to make reservations, especially for dinner, and if you book ahead of time, you can reserve one of the romantic balcony nooks.

Crepisimo

$

With an extensive variety of sweet and savory crepes, as well as quality espresso, pisco sours, and craft beers, you could easily spend the day in this artistic, Euro-styled restaurant, little sister to the Zig Zag restaurant on Calle Zela. Check out the terrace for great views of the Monasterio de Santa Catalina and volcanoes. Crepisimo also offers prix-fixe menus for S/30 or S/35 and happy hour specials from 4 to 6 and 9 to 11 pm.
