Persian bistro, located on the banks of Jaibalito, perfectly landscaped, every aspect well designed, and with the most stunning view of Lake Atitlán and its volcanoes. If you come here, expect to relax and enjoy the view while your food is prepared to the highest quality. Meals are reasonably priced and include favorites like tacos, curries, and pastas.
El Indigo Bistro combines lakefront scenery with a broad menu drawing on Persian, international, and Guatemalan influences. The setting is relaxed, with views of the water forming a major part of many diners’ experience.
Kebabs, curries, shakshuka, fish, smoothies, and other made-to-order dishes receive favorable comments. The kitchen’s from-scratch approach is appreciated, although it can also mean a slower meal when the restaurant is busy.
Service is generally friendly and the pace suits the laid-back setting. One recent review raised a food-poisoning allegation and concerns about animals around food preparation; that is an individual report, but recent enough to note briefly alongside the otherwise positive pattern.
Great restaurant/bar on the waterfront in Jaibalito. Very delicious food at a reasonable price. Cold beers and good strong cocktails. Friendly service and a beautiful view of the lake. We had the chelo kebab and the chicken curry and both were fantastic (we did not suffer from "food poisoning/Norovirus" like other reviews have claimed. Also the cats and dogs added to the lovely atmosphere, we were never bothered by either.

Amazing view and food is not the second :-) for brekfast we had shashuka, and avocado sandwich. For dinner tomato soup lasagne and dorada fish. All food were amazing. And they keep some cats and dogs inside. Especially for dogs it is crucial, you will se why when you walk in a Main Street here :(

Beautiful garden with a relaxing atmosphere and lovely views of Lake Atitlán. A nice place to stop, enjoy the scenery, and take a few photos if you're in the area.

My boyfriend and I had a very tasty breakfast here - I had the avocado toast and he had the breakfast burrito, the fruit was also very fresh. We were served by Alfredo who was lovely, definitely recommend this place to anyone visits the area :)

Llegue pero no comi, ya que el menú solo estaba en inglés lo cual me parecio excluyente y clasista
