Restaurants

La Preferida, established in 1946 and next to Hotel Cecilia, serves fine dining on the second floor with white tablecloth service. English is spoken. We ordered a petite steak in a smothered mushroom sauce with french fries and a grilled fillet river fish with mixed vegetables. Our meal came with a basket of bread and spreads. We were disappointed with our food. The beef tasted mundane, the fish was much too vinegary for my personal choice, even the french fries tasted subpar. The service was good, but there was a radio music in the background that was too loud and with distortion. Lunch is served daily from 11:30am to 2:30pm. On Sunday they serve brunch. From Monday  to Saturday they serve dinner  from 7pm to 11:30pm, Sunday dinner is from 6pm to 10pm. Credit cards are accepted.
