La Casa de los Paceños Review

This charming restaurant is housed in an old colonial building, and it doesn't look as if much has changed in this dining room since colonial times. Traditional Bolivian food is the specialty here. For example, you can order ají de lengua (cow's tongue in a chili sauce) or, if you're feeling adventurous, picante surtido, which consists of sajta (chicken in a chili sauce), saice (chopped meat in a chili sauce), ranga (cow's stomach), fritanga (pork), and charquekán (shredded alpaca meat in chili sauce). More timid eaters should opt for the pollo dorado (chicken grilled in olive oil). If you're looking for Bolivian food in a livelier atmosphere, you should head to La Casa de los Paceños in the Zona Sur, Av. Fuerza Naval 275, between 18th and 19th streets (tel. 0102/2794-629), where there is outdoor seating and live music on the weekends. A taxi from the center should cost no more than Bs30.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
