Located just a few meters from the train station and overlooking the Vilcanota River, Café Inkaterra Restaurant occupies a charming stone and wood building.

The set of conical and triangular structures, roofed with Amazon-style palm thatch, stands out amidst the surrounding cloud forest in a harmonious way, without disrupting the natural setting.

Decorated with regional crafts, the interior is luminous and cosy.

The restaurant offers a blend of Andean and contemporary cuisine (though more on the contemporary side), with such dishes as Andean trout with fine herbs and dark butter, tagliatelle with tomato and eggplant ragout, and alpaca tenderloin brochettes spiced with ají panca.

The Inkaterra group, which also runs the Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel, has been actively promoting environmental and cultural conservation in Peru.

Their efforts in the latter have given birth to the Café Inkaterra project, both the restaurant and the Café Inkaterra CD produced by Miki Gonzales, a fusion of Andean and electronic music.

Café Inkaterra's additional services include free internet terminals and a small souvenir shop.
