4.6 / 5.0(271 reviews)
We were on a day tour to Atitlan from Antigua and our last stop was Santiago atitlan. This place was trip advisor recommended and it truly didn’t disappoint. The food was excellent, we took a Tuktuk from Embarcadero as it’s a bit far. Had a great lunch here with our 2 small kids. Service and food were great; big menu. Restaurant is really large and there is a separate small second story deck with a great lake view. Was the perfect stop for our family. Easiest to get there by tuktuk. Had a fab lunch here where the local fish from the lake was done to perfection, with lots of fresh vegetables. The home made bread was great too. Service was professional and friendly. A very happy find!

Ordered the Thai coconut shrimp and my friends ordered a variety of the dishes here. Great view of the lake paired with excelled food. The chips and guacamole were delicious as well. Main course was savory, tangy and filled with love and care. The ambiance was great- would eat here again.
