7. Pizzeria Ulsan
Reviewed By Barbara M
I go to the Ulsan Pizzeria every time I am in Panajachel, often for more than one meal. They have an excellent variety of Guatemalan dishes and serve plates with local specialities such as Mojarra (a fish found only in Lake Atitlan). They also have foods familiar to those from the US, such as pizza, pasta, and pancakes. They serve breakfast all day which is a plus if you are traveling with picky eaters. The majority of their plates are under Q50 with many meals available for under Q30. My personal favorites are the burros mixtos, the supremo omelet and the sopa de zanahorias.

A small Tiki-Shack setting at the top of Santander and Calle Principal. The Curry Chicken and Vegetarian sandwiches are very tasty and filling. Freshly made, the owner clearly is proud of the quality of his fare. We certainly appreciated the new options. There are always drink prices, and delivery is available direct to your hotel/address for only the Q5 cost of the tuk tuk that delivers it.

Love this place! We enjoyed the Açaà bowls with the hummus and veggie plate. Yum! Especially the hummus; homemade. Prices are super reasonable and the food is tasty with a lovely presentation. The atmosphere is great; clean and hip with the option for rooftop dining. I can imagine enjoying one of their brews during sunset. One thing that made the service top-notch was that I left without my credit card. The nice young man tracked me down by running to catch up with us. Definitely greatly appreciate.

Pana's first craft brewery location, serving in-house beers made on-site. Enjoy by the pint, flight, or take some home in a growler. Enjoy with fresh popcorn, or order food from our cafe down the street or just bring your own from one of the many close-by

Alex and Melvin were phenomenal to us during our visit. These two young employees from Pana specifically fired up the popcorn machine for us, provided samples (including a chocolate coffee flavour that Alex had thought up), and eagerly told us all about the 9-month-old brewery. The beer was great and so was the company.

In Spanish, the name is Porche de Salomon. Its off the road a bit inside a small commercial area called El Dorado, near the main bus stop in Panajachel.

Good place to spend some money because of the support Solomn's porch gives to those without homes in Guatemala. The food is ok and is not gluten free friendly. The margaritas are delicious. This is a small place, groups larger than 8 may have trouble finding a good seat. This is a popular place for people living in th area.

La Palapa is a favorite of locals, ex-pats, and tourists, with a typical bar menu - burgers (great!) & fries, sandwiches, nachos, really good chili, etc. Full bar. Known for their Saturday afternoon barbecue with grilled fish, great cuts of meat, and Portobello mushrooms available, as well as excellent sides. Live music on weekends. Friendly staff. Thanks for your kind comments.

Mister Jonâs has a diverse menu of mostly American fare (I believe the owner is an expat). Everything Iâve had on the menu is good and never leaves me with a belly-ache, except perhaps from overdoing it, ha. Good food, decent service, and always reliable. One of my top 5 spots in Pana for sure.
