Top choice in Little Corn Island


Long considered the Corn Islands’ best restaurant, this Cuban-run kitchen serves up outstanding plates of fish, shrimp, roast pork and ropa vieja (a Cuban shredded-beef delicacy) on a smart dining patio. But the absolute star of the show is the lobster in jalapeño sauce – don't leave the island without trying it.
