3 Best Restaurants in The Caribbean Coast, Colombia

El Fuerte Restaurant

$$$ Fodor's choice

Set in an almost cavernous space with double arches reaching up to the 15-foot-high ceiling, the warm and welcoming staff at this 18th-century fort turned restaurant serves great drinks and a solid Italian menu. Quality is paramount here—pizzas are thin and wood fired and pasta is handmade with freshly prepared sauces.

Cash only.

De Silvio Trattoria

$$
The exposed stone walls and graffiti-covered exterior of an old Getsemaní home set the tone for this trendy Italian restaurant, which seamlessly blends the historical and modern faces of the neighborhood. Grab a table in the green, open-air courtyard and stick to the pizza. You'll enjoy a gently pleasant evening that isn't too heavy on the wallet.

I Balcone

$$
Directly above the famous Cafe Havana, I Balcone retains its mantle of go-to spot in the city for fans of thin-crust pizza thanks to an excellent dough and all handmade ingredients. The pasta, also freshly made, is an equally good choice, with the creamy lobster linguine a standout. The interior lacks a bit of love, but get there early to assure a spot at the little tables squeezed onto one of the balconies, and you can enjoy the inevitably pleasant evening and lively street life passing below.
