Fodor's Expert Review Las Tres Vírgenes

Poll locals on their favorite restaurant in La Paz, and Las Tres Vírgenes is likely to be the runaway winner. Chef and Tijuana native Jesús Chávez has endeared himself to Paceños over the past dozen years with consistently excellent mesquite-grilled fare, from seafood and enormous burgers (try the Baja 1000 with “double beef, double cheese, double everything”) to slow-braised Angus short ribs, Tomahawk bone-in rib eye, and Brazilian-style picaña. The foliage-framed courtyard dining area is perfect for romantic moonlit dinners, and the resident mixologist serves cocktails and postprandial liqueurs and espresso drinks from an old-fashioned wooden bar.
