Trutas do Rocio

$$ | Rocio Fodor's Choice

It's off the beaten track—ask a local for directions—and only open on weekends, but this rustic, riverside restaurant is really something special. Trutas (trout) is what you'll find on the menu—trout, trout, and more trout served fresh from the river in many imaginative ways: as appetizers mashed into a pâté or baked in cassava-dough pastry, and as entrées grilled or cooked with a choice of almond, mustard, or orange sauce. The restaurant seats only 30, so reservations via WhatsApp are a must.
