3 Best Restaurants in Asunción, Paraguay

A 10-minute taxi ride from the centro, this enormous, 600-seat rodízio-style restaurant might just be the best value in town. Waiters traverse the dining room with skewers of grilled sausage, chicken, pork, and beef, slicing off as much as you want. You can mosey over to the buffet laden with salads, vegetables, and desserts. For something different, ask for cupim, a cut of meat taken from the hump of the Brahma cattle bred in Paraguay and Brazil.

Specialties at this local chain include duck à l'orange, sirloin steak, and surubí. The soft green color scheme and the hunting prints lend the dining room a refined colonial style. Talleyrand also has a location at Shopping del Sol.

Glossy cream-and-black wallpaper and chic Thonet bentwood chairs give this corner eatery a crisp, modern look. The specialty here is pizza with an astounding variety of toppings to choose from.
