These folks make an art out of barbecue, but to sample it you'll have to go to more effort than usual in Isabela – this place is 1km up the hill from Playa Jobos. As for the grilled meats, think tender pulled pork or herb-infused brisket. The king of the dishes is the chargrilled rib eye with shrimp.
La Vista's 'pit master' is a passionate chap who has been grilling meat professionally for a good four decades. This is more a touristy hangout than a local place, but the quality is very, very high.
