Iguana Juan's Restaurant Bar

The tamales are definitely a standout dish here! My server, Adrian, was very helpful in guiding me through their vegan options and even offered me the happy hour special of $16 Belizean dollars along with a complimentary beer or another drink. What a great deal! I was concerned that the tamales might be too spicy, but Adrian assured me that they had just the right amount of heat. I found them to be mildly spicy in some parts, but overall very delicious.

The restaurant offers vegan options and the staff are very attentive to any changes needed. However, the dining experience may not feel like authentic Belize cuisine for those seeking it, but overall it is a nice place to dine.

Typically, a vegetarian sandwich doesn't sound appealing, but this one was delicious! The curry was amazing - we even ordered two extra to take home for the next day. The tamale was large and packed with flavorful vegetables. The cocktails were also impressive; they were both beautifully presented and potent.

Upstairs restaurant, nice and cozy, friendly service, the waiter knew what vegan was

We loved both Juan’s vegan sandwich and the Chaya tamales. Service was attentive and helpful, and our server knew exactly what we could get as vegans. Vegetarian items are clearly marked! Yummm. I loved the rooftop vibe as we watched everyone drive around in their golfcarts. Oh, and please get the frozen coconut mojito so creamy and all vegan! Highly recommend!
