When we asked people living in Belize about good local restaurants, they mentioned...

"One of the most popular restaurants in Belize is Elvi's Kitchen, located in San Pedro. Elvi's Kitchen is known for its traditional Belizean cuisine, such as stewed chicken, rice and beans, and fry jacks. The restaurant also offers a variety of seafood dishes, including conch fritters, lobster, and shrimp. The atmosphere is casual and relaxed, and the staff is friendly and attentive. Another popular restaurant in Belize is The Truck Stop, located in Belize City. The Truck Stop is a casual eatery that serves up a variety of dishes, including burgers, sandwiches, and tacos. The restaurant also offers a selection of local beers and cocktails. The atmosphere is lively and the staff is friendly and helpful. Finally, The Reef Restaurant, located in Placencia, is a favorite among locals and tourists alike. The Reef Restaurant serves up a variety of seafood dishes, including grilled fish, lobster, and shrimp. The atmosphere is relaxed and the staff is friendly and attentive. The restaurant also offers a selection of local beers and cocktails," said another expat in Belize.

"The restaurants vary from about 5 star to small family cafes run by locals. The food is always delicious and prepared fresh. Don't ever be in a hurry for service! Bars or restaurants with bar service are open and lively in the evenings -- especially on the weekends. Many have live music with traditional drumming and dancing," wrote a member who made the move to Hopkins, Belize.
