Widely considered the finest restaurant in La Paz, El Tupé is set in a rather understated building just off the malecón. Despite the uninspiring surroundings, the food is first-class, with creative presentations from chefs Luis González and Uziel Leaño. The two met during backpacking trips around Baja California Sur, and decided to open a restaurant celebrating traditional dishes from some of the state's less traveled areas. El Tupé is only open for dinner, with a choice of 6 or 12 course seatings. The menu changes nightly to take advantage of the freshest local ingredients.
