La Parrilla de Juan

Climb the stairs for a culinary treat at this long-standing Argentinian restaurant, situated right in the heart of Holbox since 2005. This seafood, grill and steakhouse serves only the best cuts of meat and the freshest fish straight from the boat. When it comes to grills, you can't go wrong with La Parrilla de Juan.

Open for lunch and dinner 6 days a week, La Parrilla de Juan sits at the top of one of Holbox’s taller central buildings, dazzling guests with a wonderful view of the town and the sea in the distance. If it’s a tasty meal with a warm sea breeze you desire, look no further. The atmosphere at this steakhouse will keep you coming back again and again.

Argentina is famous for its quality meat and their asados (barbeque grills), and La Parrilla de Juan certainly lives up to the country’s reputation. Mouth-watering 300g fillet steaks, T-bones, Argentinian chorizo, and seriously delicious filled filo pastries. But meat isn’t the only thing on the menu. Choose from a selection of fresh fish and seafood, either from the grill or as separate dishes – how about a scrumptious tuna tartare? And if you’re a vegetarian, don’t despair; this top-notch restaurant has many flavoursome options for you too, including homemade pastas.

La Parrilla de Juan also has an extensive drinks menu, stocking quality wines, tequilas and mescals, spirits, beer, and cocktails. Enjoy the flair of traditional Argentinian cuisine alongside the laid-back island feel of Holbox. This is definitely one of those ‘have tos’ while on vacation in Holbox.
