Luxury Dining
One of Quito's finest dining experiences can be found at La Querencia. Here you can sample local dishes like seco de chivo, lamb stewed with fruit or ceviche, marinated fish. Other Ecuadoran dishes include papas con cuero, pork skins with potatoes in a peanut sauce, and arroz con menestra, a juicy filet served with rice, lentils, and fried bananas. Dine inside next to the cozy fireplace or take your meals outside in the beautiful garden. -
Romantic Dining
For a nice romantic dinner visit the Il Risotto. Relax with your loved one at this cozy Italian restaurant where candles and fresh roses are on every table. Start your meal with the shellfish salad, then follow that with the lobster on a bed of pasta pomodoro, or a chicken roll with spinach and ricotta cheese. Save room for dessert, order crêpes suzette with grand marnier, or try the tiramisu with a chocolate and cognac sauce. -
Affordable Dining
The Las Redes restaurant offers great seafood at affordable prices. Start your meal with the house specialty, the gran mariscada, an enormous platter of assorted sizzling seafood. Try the arroz con mariscos, yellow rice with peppers, onions, mussels, clams, shrimp, calamari, octopus, and crayfish is also delicious. The decor in this restaurant makes you feel as though you are actually at a seafood restaurant on the coast. -
