Villavicencio Restaurants

Restaurants

Prices tend to be a bit higher in Villavicencio than in other parts of Colombia. The city market is along Calle 37a, between the Ley supermarket and Carrera 26, and sprawls into the side streets. Pick up groceries at the Ley supermarket (Monday-Saturday 9 a.m.-8 p.m., Sunday 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Ca. 37b, 29-83).While in Villavicencio, be sure to try the most typical llanero food—carne a la vara, or seasoned meat roasted on an upright spit. Some restaurants are permitted to serve farm-raised capybaras. One recommended place is Asadero y Restaurante El Cabrestero (Anillo Vial, across the 7a Brigada military base).

Nightlife

Nightlife is hot only on weekends and holidays, and clubs usually open at 6:30 p.m., though the scene doesn’t get going until after 9 p.m. To catch some live llanero music, some recommended clubs are El Botlón (on the highway toward Puerto López) and El Pentagrama del Llanero (in the Unicentro mall on Av. Puerto López). Restaurants on the outskirts of town often have live bands on the weekends.
