We ate here after reading about the place. The staff was great and the food was really good. The tacos were my favorite and the cold beer is not bad either.

RV has the best grilled steak in LaPaz. It is so good, that we went back a second time and had more of the same mesquite grilled beef with lots of cold cerveza. Service is excellent.
