Where to eat: the 17 best restaurants in Humahuaca

Overall, the restaurant is very nice. The food was authentic and also quite good. I only didn't like the bread. It was stale and generic. The only downsides were price (paying more than $25 per person is in the upper range of Argentinian restaurants, even more so in Jujuy), and service. Unlike the vast majority of restaurants I went to in Jujuy (and even in Buenos Aires), the personally had a very detached attitude. Not sure why but it detracted a bit from the experience. I liked next-door Pachamanka better.

Attractive place with dim lighting, candle light, great live music ($3000pp added to the bill) and friendly service. Large selection of wines at the more expensive side to what we usually go for but the jarra of house red was all good. We got the queso de cabra starter which was nice. It was a subtle flavour cheese garnished with a lentil sauce, cherry tomatoes and basil. There could’ve been more of the garnishings but we also could’ve asked. For the mains we had the quinoa risotto and fillet of llama Aisito, both were lovely! First time trying llama. It’s a tougher meat but really enjoyed!

A pleasant atmospheric restaurant with good calm music, paintings on the walls, and an excellent selection of wine. Strongly recommended.

There are places (fortunately not many) where the service is noticeably worse and less attentive to a single diner than to a couple or group. Unfortunately this was one of those places. The food was good but not as excellent as I expected from a place like this and at this price.

The interior with the colorful, local tablecloths is very pleasant. The food is delicious. We had dinner here twice. I had llama steak and it was amazing. For this I would give 6 starts if I could. Three things overshadowed the experience. 1. Lack of menu in English and English speaking staff. (We are used to that by now, so this was minor.) 2. Very hard time paying with card due to internet problems. 3. Entertainment from 9 pm on, that one has to pay extra for. It sounded like fun for locals, but was definitely too much for us, non-Spanish speakers. The musician between two songs was just talking and talking in the microphone in the room that is too small for an amplifier. It was so loud and intrusive, we could not talk to each other, just wanted to finish our meal quickly and get out as soon as possible. As the food was so good, we came back the second evening, coming early to avoid the "entertainment". We finished our meal and were getting out just as the singing started, but we still were charged the music surcharge. We felt cheated.

Best locro this side of the Capricorn Tropic! Great house salad and impeccable service (gracias a Guadalupe!).

The best restaurant and service we have had while in Argentina. We had the llamas steak (medium rare), the quinoa risotto, and super salad. We had an amazing wine call Cactus Tannat 2021 which was fantastic and will visit this winery tomorrow. They had live music which was perfect for the atmosphere and the service was intimate and focused on us. Would eat here again and again if I lived local.

Hornocal

(Translated by Google) Picturesque place to eat in Humahuaca, near the bus terminal with many menu and à la carte options, as well as takeaway, with a very good price-quality ratio. The jugs of natural juice are recommended to drink, very abundant for 2 people. (Original) Pintoresco lugar para comer en Humahuaca, cerca de la terminal de ómnibus con muchas opciones de menúes y en la carta, cómo también para llevar, con muy buena relación precio-calidad.

The lunch menu of day (3 courses for 12,000 ARS) was reasonably priced and with large portions. However, the food was very average and nothing special. Service was friendly from the young guys.

Really nice local restaurant in Humahuaca! The food was really good and people were super nice!

I went there for a coffee - the guy who served me was very patient with my poor Spanish and worked out that i was wanting a coffee called jarrito in this part of Argentina. It's like a double sized espresso. When it came it was very very good - I'm from New Zealand so I know good coffee :-) I think probably the best I've had so far in my 2 weeks of travelling. Nice environment with art on the walls, clean and bright - Free Wifi also... Muchas Gracias

Unfortunately the place has a total infestation of flies. Employees can at least spend some effort to eliminate pests

The place looks really nice and has a cute garden. What a pity how they serve you! We ordered white wine and water and got glasses only for wine which were extremely dirty and the bottle of wine was warm, so we asked for ice to make the wine colder and got a bowl with ice cubes to put it into the glass instead of something to make the bottle cooler! No glasses for water. And the wine was horrible quality. We paid and left without finishing the bottle. The waiter doesn't care at all. Definitely not worthy to visit.

Bueno bonito barato. We had a very tasty three course meal, ate in the patio weich had a really nice vibe. Very recomendable!

Nice setting, we ordered the special that came with a single empanada each to start with, our mains (I ordered the cannelloni and my husband ordered a Bolivian dish) and dessert. The meals are massive and both tasty.

Wonderful service and delicious food!! There are lots of great vegetarian options, and there was live hand pan music as well! Great vibes, definitely recommend and I plan on returning before leaving Humauaca 😊😊

Muy rico! The food was delicious. We had to wait a bit long, but I think the guy was alone for the whole service and also for the cooking. It was really good. ☺️

I am extremely disappointed in this restaurant. it is very expensive for the bad food. I don't understand why there are so many good reviews on here. Look at the photo. A musician came begging for money, the meat came unsalted alone on the plate. the salad came without a sauce and there was no oil or salt on the table. I advise everyone to go to this restaurant. there are much better options in the village.

We had empanadas and a llama stew which were very nice. For dessert we had a Huma cake which was gorgeous, extremely well balanced and tasty. Our waitress was kind and friendly.

Very tasty food and very cozy atmosphere. It were our first estofados de llama and it was delicious! Very friendly personal. Also was possible to watch football game during nice dinner)

Expensive for what it was, we ordered the ravioli with salsa Bolognese and it was very watery. The food also took a while to come.

Very friendly staff, dishes were yum. Ordered the pollo and locro - both tasty. Doesn’t open until 8pm though for dinner.

Beautiful homemade cooking. Service is great with a nice atmosphere. Can absolutely recommended it for lunch and dinner. Setting is very local with cactus roof wood and clay.

Nice small bar(I didn't eat) but very cool to have a drink, especially in the small courtyard full of shade... Welcome when the sun is shining hard

Nice place for a quick lunch. Homemade food with a cheap menu. The atmosphere and design inside is also very nice.

good food but dont too expensive for the portions. the price are over the zone rate

Great local food and excellent service. Free WiFi was a bonus too.

cheap and good food, waitering could've been better

Nice tartas and soups. Service is a bit slow.

Had a nice dinner in this restaurant. The food was ok, being traditional and regional meals. The prices are very good value with good sized portions. The young man serving was very helpful and the only one running all the tables. He did an excellent excellent job. The food did take quite a while to come to the table despite the restaurant being half full at best.

The menu has vegan alternatives, which is a lot in the area. The quinoa risotto was very tasty. They also offer a vegan quinoa empanada with tasty sauces. They bring bread with plant based dips also. They have a very good wine selection from the wineries of the quebrada.

Nice dining room and the service is good too. The dishes are well presented and very tasty. We ordered some wine as well, so of course, the price per person increased. Paying by cash and you'll have a discount 👍

Amazing discovery!!! Absolutely fantastic food - mixture of tradition of the Andes with new tastes and sabores. We were amazed by the quality of the food. The bread coming with the salad was in different colours, like the mountains of the Quebrada. Definitely worth a Michelin star 👏👏👏

Absolutely delicious food. I came back for a second time and it was worth it. Excellent staff, friendly and ready to explain everything about food. Wonderful aromas and tastes from this region. If you want to discover Sth new about the food in Jujuy, this place is highly recommended to visit for a lunch!

This place serves some unique traditional food with local ingredients - great if you want something different. We had the quinoa and cheese stuffed peppers, llama roll and lamb ravioli - all were delicious. There are vegan and gluten free options too. Recommend to visit if you’re in Humahuaca!

The place was not even busy as I came for a late lunch having seen the reviews for the quinoa and yet the service was dull and slow. Quinoa risotto with mushrooms is ok but there are hardly any mushrooms. Compared to La Casona in San Pedro de Attacama this was a huge disappointment and was expensive. …and don’t bother ordering the churros as they don’t come with the spiced chocolate sauce that folks on here have been raving about…when I questioned the staff they denied it and said only churros and no chocolate sauce - RIDICULOUS! …in fact the churros themselves were DISGUSTING - cold and stale - not even the sugar that they were drenched in could hide the taste…that spiced chocolate sauce they use to do must have been amazing! Apparently they use to do a Peña (live music) though this does not happen anymore. Sad to say that it looks like this place has gone downhill. Fortunately there is Asaido which is a couple of doors down and serves outstanding humita, lama casserole, Dulce leche cake. The Regional Menu is a good at A$3400. The Peña at lunch and dinner is OUTSTANDING!

Pinocho Restaurante offers good food and is definitely worth a stop if you're visiting Humahuaca. Prices are on the higher side, especially for locals, but the portions are decent and the quality is solid. If you're a tourist and not too picky, you'll eat well and enjoy the experience. A good option for a quick and satisfying meal while exploring the area.

Traditional beats Churos changos group

Delicious food and great music!

(Translated by Google) What they served us is not worth the price we paid, at first glance it looks delicious but the flavor leaves a lot to be desired. The only nice thing is the place and the way it is set, I would never return to this place. (Original) Lo que nos sirvieron no vale por el precio que pagamos, a simple vista se ve rico pero el sabor deja mucho que desear. Lo único lindo es el lugar y como está ambientado, no volvería jamás a este sitio.

(Translated by Google) The minute you see the restaurant, you see a sign that says show rights; this year, it's $3,000 pesos. There are two waiters, and they can't keep up. They took a while to serve us and gave us lukewarm food; other than that, it was delicious. We ordered mila with mashed potatoes, but they told us they didn't have the empanadas we wanted. The music is great, but above all, it's a restaurant where, beyond the music, the food is just as important. I wouldn't go back! IMPORTANT FACT: They don't have gluten-free food. (Original) Al minuto que ves el restaurante, ves un cartel donde dice derecho de show, en este año está $3000 pesos. Son dos mozos y no dan a basto. Nos tardaron en atender y nos dieron la comida tibia, más allá de eso, estaba rica. Nos pedimos mila con puré pero nos dijeron que no había empanadas que queríamos pedir justo. Y la música es muy buena pero sobre todo es un restaurante que más allá de la música, también importa la comida. No volvería! DATO IMPORTANTE: NO tienen alimentos sin tacc.

(Translated by Google) Everything was excellent!! Highly recommended! Delicious food, 10/10 service! Great crowd at night, live music! Don't leave without trying the charqui empanadas! They're delicious!!! We're from Sunchales, Santa Fe! (Original) Excelente todo!! Super recomendable! Comida muy rica, atención 10! Por la noche peñita, música en vivo! No se vayan sin probar empanadas de charqui! Son deliciosas!!! Somos de Sunchales Santa Fe!

(Translated by Google) Excellent musical and singer, I went early to ask if I could eat some lamb and the owner told me (YES) 20.30 I arrived to eat, there were 3 tables and (no lamb STRANGE) MAYBE HE PAID TRIBUTE TO HIS NAME "PINOCCHIO" Still, delicious food and good price. (Original) Excelente musical y cantante, temprano pase a preguntar si podía comer algo de cordero y me dice el dueño (SIIII) 20,30 Llegue a comer, había 3 mesas y (nada de cordero RARO) QUIZAS HIZO HOMENAJE A SU NOMBRE "PINOCHO" Igual cominos rico y buen precio.

Food was a bit salty. I had chicken and it wad prepared great but too salty. The breakfast was wonderful. No complaints.

Ok

Nice family atmosphere (Original) Excelente atención. Los platos son abundantes. En el precio incluye entrada plato principal y postre. La bebida es aparte. Mientras estas almorzando toca un grupo local en vivo. Lindo ambiente familiar

(Translated by Google) Basic but filling food. The llama and lamb casserole with real pieces of meat (and not just bones, like in other places). Very good music, although it doesn't play for long. The good thing is that you don't pay the typical 400 pesos for entertainment fees. People ended up dancing!! Summary: the best place to eat, and on top of that with craft beer at 350 pesos a pint (Original) Comida básica pero contundente. La cazuela de llama y cordero con verdaderos trozos de carne(y no sólo de huesos, como en otros sitios). Música muy buena, aunque no tucán mucho tiempo. Lo bueno es que no se pagan los típicos 400 pesos de derecho de espectáculo. La gente terminó bailando!! Resumen: el mejor sitio para comer, y encima con cerveza artesanal a 350 pesos la pinta

(Translated by Google) We arrived super late and were treated excellently. (Original) Llegamos súper tarde y nos atendieron de manera excelente.

(Translated by Google) It eats well. They take a long time (Original) Se come bien. Demoran mucho

(Translated by Google) Very poor service, reheated food and there was no one responsible to complain Two girls without training to run a food place in a tourist area Expensive prices for the proposal they present Impossible to sustain a place like this without these aspects improving We entered deceived by the beautiful appearance of the place, very well arranged. (Original) Muy mala atención la comida recalentada y no había nadie responsable para quejarse Dos pibas sin formación para la atención de un lugar de comida en una zona turística Precios caros para la propuesta que presentan Imposible sostener un lugar así sino mejoran estos aspectos Entramos engañados por la linda apariencia del lugar muy bien arreglado

Very nice place with a varied menu, we got the llama milanesa, qinoa stew and garden salad. I would not recommend getting the salad since it was quite expensive compared to other items ok the menu and not really worth it. The other food was very good. Someone came and played some nice music and sang which was a nice touch.

Nice Family run restaurant. Walked in with 1 table occupied and half way through lunch it was pretty full. The empanadas here are fried and had curry giving a yellow colour, which I was not expecting at all.

The food here was dreadful. I had the pepper steak and papas. It took a long time and when it arrived it looked like black and white slop on a plate. The potatoes weren’t cooked and were swimming in white sauce and the meat was also swimming in sauce. Left most of it. My partner had the chicken pasta and did not enjoy it. Was surprised given the reviews but would not recommend

Gréât little Peña! We had some folk music played while we ate which was a delight. Huge portion sizes.

Really nice a bit expensive but that is just the city

Super recomendable

(Translated by Google) I went with my friends for lunch. We all ordered the menu of the day and it was delicious. It included two papa stuffed with meat with rice, soup and lemonade for 10,000 pesos. Good service and very familiar and pleasant place. (Original) Fuí con mis amigos a almorzar. Todos pedimos el menú del día y estaba delicioso. Incluía dos papá rellena de carne con arroz, sopa y limonada por 10000 pesos. La atención buena y el lugar muy familiar y ameno.

Very bad... we asked the menu of 850, that is an empanada, as main dish, we had pasta with a "sauce" if you can call it like that. No savor it was just a pure of tomato... as for the empanada as for the dish we heard the microwave going so suppose it was from mid-day or not fresh... I will definitely not recomend it...

1 star because we can’t give 0. We got there at noon and for the menu del dia they didn’t have one of the 2 options and didn’t have the postre. We ordered empanadas instead (which is also the entrada of the menu del dia) and it took the lady 45 minutes to come and tell us that they didn’t have empanadas. We were there for more than 1h because they never came to took our order at the beginning and left without eating anything. Very frustrating that if took them so long to let us know they didn’t have the food.

Traditional, cute, original place for lunch in the middle of Humahuaca. The service is nice and the lady very approachable. A plus the fact that you can pay by card, which is not accepted almost anywhere around!

Good coffee place in the center of Humahuaca. We occupied the only table outdoors and were greeted by so many friendly locals. Nice place!

An easy place to be. But we did not like the food so much

Great food, music, and ambience. Price is good and good wine

Good authentic food, a bit pricy for the area though.

(Translated by Google) $9,000 for a starter of 2 empanadas, menu and dessert. Not so expensive, not so cheap. The llama milanesa and the meat empanada are very delicious. They do not accept cards, only cash. (Original) 9.000$ por entrada de 2 empanadas, menú y postre. Ni tan caro, ni tan barato. Muy rica la milanesa de llama y la empanada de carne.
