Description

The gastronomical Tower of Babel that is Las Mercedes is host to a range of highly significant grilled meat establishments. El Maute Grill occupies an old city house that is reminiscent of the countryside.

Here they call a bullock in its prime for grilling a 'maute.' The meat on offer here is not particularly young, but it is treated with as much care and attention as when it was reared. There is a wide range of options, including steak, rump, loin, loin of pork, sausages, baked or fried yucca, tamale (boiled corn balls wrapped in maize husks), fried maize cakes, cheeses, creams and a wide range of salads and desserts.

Out of tradition, beer or soft drinks are the choice of drinks with such a sumptuous menu. Live music is performed every day from 4pm onwards.
