Humo Negro Bogota

Humo Negro sits on Cra. 5 in Chapinero. It holds the no. 44 spot on the 2024 list of Latin America's 50 Best Restaurants.

The restaurant serves South American grill-focused cuisine and the room runs smart. You choose this kitchen over the rowdier spots near the Museo Nacional de Colombia because it prioritizes the ingredient over the spectacle. While the surrounding streets in Chapinero are often cluttered with casual spots, Humo Negro focuses on a precise, modern fire-based menu that justifies its ranking. It offers a more deliberate experience than the high-traffic grills in the nearby zones, making it the right move if you want the smoke-heavy profile of regional cooking without the frantic pace of the city’s larger dining hubs.
