Bolivian Restaurant Review: Los Nopalitos Mexican Restaurant, La Paz, Bolivia

(La Paz, Bolivia)

Los Nopalitos is a restaurant that is based at Av Ecuador entre Guachalla y Rosendo Gutierrez, La Paz, Bolivia. One thing about this place is its really not easy to spot as its a small entrance with a stairway. One of the best ways to spot this restaurant is, once you reach the avenue look for the Indian store Nim. Keep the Indian store to your right shoulder and walk towards Mercado Sopocachi. Roughly 30 odd steps and you will see the gap in the wall with the stair way and the sign board on the wall saying Los Nopalitos.

Once you're inside you have beautiful bright colored painted walls and dining areas are like rooms in an apartment. The walls have pretty good decorations and black and white paintings from the revolution. Good music which I believe is traditional Mexican music. Menu is pretty well designed with images of the food you would like to order. For an expat the pics speak a million words on the menu.

Drinks menu is pretty good from beers all the way down to juices. I tried out the Tamarind Juice and was amazing!! Nachos and jalapeño for the strong hearted is recommended.

Menus is priced well and a good meal for two with drinks won't go over 150BS.

If you find the restaurant its a must visit :)

I claimed about a plate that was too salty. Since I lived In mexico for 20 years, I tried to give the owner some advice on how to prepare it better. He got really mad, said that if I didn't want to I shouldn't pay him and he threw the plate.

Seeing such bad energy I started to leave, and he ran behind me insulting me and trying to hit me. I turned around and said that he told me not to pay him and so I paid him. As I continued leaving, he continued to insult me.

I am currently presenting demands to this restaurant, Imagine someone that has liver or heart problems, a situation like this could result in serious problems. This place has really bad energy, try to avoid it.
