2 Best Restaurants in The Deep South, Belize

Asha's Culture Kitchen

$$ Fodor's choice

In a rustic wood shack built right over the water, Asha's has the best views of any restaurant in Punta Gorda. Asha's specializes in fresh seafood served Creole style, such as fried conch with mashed potatoes or grilled snapper with plantains and beans and rice. The menu changes daily. Stake out a place in the main dining room or on the breezy deck and look across the Gulf of Honduras toward Guatemala.

Waluco's

$$ Fodor's choice
Hands down Punta Gorda's best and most pleasant restaurant, Waluco's is a project of TIDE, a local conservation organization, and profits go to support its work. Go for the fresh-grilled fish of the day, which might be snook, snapper, or another local catch. Prices are lower here than at most other restaurants in town, and if you come before dark, you'll enjoy views across the street of the Gulf of Honduras. Thursday is karaoke night, and there's occasional music by local acts other nights.
