El Club

Uruguay


This colorfully decorated, eco-conscious eatery combines the creative efforts of Colombian artist Camila, her Uruguayan partner Fernando and various local chefs. Specialties include grilled fish, artisanal beer, wood-fired pizza and fondue cooked atop recycled tin cans. It doubles as a social club where people gather to play chess and enjoy live music. Platos del día (UR$420) include some vegetarian options.

Look for it 50m west of the 4WD truck stop.
