Fodor's Expert Review Burgos's Restaurant

This funky, thatch-roofed restaurant with river views in the back has one of Puerto Maldonado's best kitchens, offering up a wide variety of local favorites such as pollo con salsa de castañas (chicken in a Brazil-nut sauce), pescado en hoja (fish fillet cooked in a leaf), or lomo (grilled tenderloin) with tacacho (fried plantain balls) and ensalada de palmito (heart of palm salad). The environment is appropriately Amazonian, with indigenous art on the walls.
