About this trap

One of the easiest traps in Cartagena is choosing a restaurant simply because it has a beautiful table in a famous plaza.

Yes, the location may be spectacular. But a great view doesn’t always mean great food — and some of the most memorable meals in Cartagena happen away from the most photographed streets.

My advice? Before sitting down, take a look at the menu, check where locals are actually eating, and don’t be afraid to walk a few blocks away from the main squares.

Cartagena has incredible food, from Caribbean seafood and street food to traditional dishes you may never find on a tourist menu. Sometimes, the best meal is hiding around the corner.
