Restaurants near La Antorcha de la Amistad

Beautiful ambiance, especially if you sit outside along the river. The restaurant was quiet where you can hold a conversation and tables are well spaced, so you do not hear others conversations. The value of the food was mediocre; however, you’re paying for the scenery. The service was excellent. My party and I went in the evening. I will definitely come back for brunch soon.

The restaurant was roomy the service was excellent as usual the French grilled oysters were incredibly delicious our meats were cooked to perfection and desert was fabulous can’t wait to get back for dinner

I ordered the Snapper Paesanos and it was delicious. Also had a Chardonnay Wine and Specialty Cocktail and everything was Awesome. One of my favorite Restaurants on the Riverwalk.

From start to finish our New Years Day dinner was great! Matt, our waiter, was phenomenal. We enjoyed a nice bottle of wine with our appetizer and were not rushed to order our main course…as we sipped and nibbled we listened to live music which streamed to the upstairs patio. The filet was cooked to perfection and my chicken was tender and so tasty. Matt suggested their chocolate mousse for dessert and wowsers was it delicious!

We ate at Fogo de Chão on New Year’s Day to start our 2025 and it was very good. The restaurant was busier than I expected but the three of us had a reservation so not to worry. The staff brought my 101 year old mother the salt-free lamb chops that she always requests which were a bit overcooked but still tender and delicious. My friend and I enjoyed the other various cuts of beef, and we all enjoyed the salad bar and the sides… especially the little cheese breads. We’ve tried the cheese breads at other Brazilian restaurants but the best ones are at Fogo. The only negative was the very last cut of meat for me which was a chunk of picaña instead of a slice. It was very fibrous and hard to cut but I suppose that was because it was a remaining portion of the meat instead of a sliced piece. Other than that, we had a very good experience once again and we will be back! P.S. I forgot to take any pictures this time because I was enjoying the food a little too much.
