Right on the main boulevard in Iquitos with a wonderful view of the Itaya River, this space is an oasis in the middle of the city, offering regional dishes, more cosmopolitan drinks, the best espresso in the jungle, craft beers, and snapshots of a story in photos that would leave its mark on this building forever. Fitzcarraldo Restaurante Café Bar is a tribute to the film of the same name by German filmmaker Werner Herzog, who came to the jungle with Mick Jagger in tow to chase a dream.
