Don Quijote - Villa de Leiva

When you have seen what Villa de Leyva has to offer, and there is a lot to see in this really beautiful town, there is this fine restaurant to go to. The owner at the door and she showed us her lunch time fixed price...menu and we thought it was too good to be true but having toured the town and checked out some other options we returned and we were glad we did. We might have been the only people in for lunch (it was probably a bit early) so we had the delightfully cool courtyard to ourselves. We had their delicious three-course lunch which included soup, spaghetti, a choice of grilled dishes, salad and a pudding plus a beer and coffee which were extra; for two of us the total  was can you believe it? I don't know how they make any money in this restaurant, but the food is good and the value is terrific. Chris and Gill London

We needed a meal on Sunday evening at or so and so many restaurants were empty or closed. The guide suggested this one and we had a delicious baked leg of lamb produced in minutes (not sure how) and were in and out...within minutes. The food was good, and family attentive but not sure why the village was so quiet.

We had a great set lunch of trout, salad, soup, pasta, whole grain bread and fresh fruit drinks. The food was excellent and reasonably priced at COP.

Pedí un filete de res y la verdad, la carne nada del otro mundo, un corte de baja calidad y con demasiado condimento. El precio del plato estaba muy por encima de la calidad.Probé la pierna de cordero que pidió mi chica y estaba muy buena, pero a juzgar por el plato que me sirvieron ami es un sitio para no volver.

Caminando alrededor de la plaza buscando donde almorzar encontramos don Quijote y su plato premiado en el 2006! Aunque ha pasado tiempo sin duda la pierna de cordero es algo diferente y digno de probar si eres de aquellos que gustan de carnes maduradas. Eso sí, es para dos personas!
