Patricio was a solid server&mdash;friendly and efficient without being over the top. Made the breakfast run smoother than usual. Pretty good spot.

The lighting here is so warm and low, it instantly felt like a proper date spot. I had the grilled fish and it was cooked perfectly, flaky and full of flavor. Prices are fair for the quality, honestly. Just wish the music was a little quieter, but still a solid choice for a nice evening out. 🌿

I was honestly surprised to find this place on the third floor of El Jardin. The pizza was massive and the ingredients tasted really fresh, which I always care about. The sparkling lemonade was a nice touch too. Service was quick and friendly. Just a heads up, it&#39;s a bit tucked away, but worth the little hunt.

The ice cream is the star here&mdash;creative, in-house flavors you won&#39;t find elsewhere, and the staff are happy to let you sample before you decide. Prices are fair for the quality.

Came here for breakfast and honestly the food looked almost too good to eat. Got the eggs benedict and the hollandaise was spot on. Staff checked on me a couple times which was nice. Prices are a bit steep for what it is, but you&#39;re paying for the quality I guess.

The giant empanada de viento was huge and really tasty. We also had locro con queso, which was comforting. The place was busy, but we found a good table and the staff was nice.

Tried the mixed grill platter. The beef was cooked right, still juicy in the middle. Chicken had good char on the outside. Sides were basic but fine. Portion size is decent for the price. Would come back just for the meat.

The Ragu Napoletano was so good, I almost ordered a second plate 😅 Pasta was cooked just right and the sauce had that rich, slow-cooked flavor. Drinks menu is huge too, took me a while to decide. Staff were chill and let us hang around after we finished. Good spot if you&#39;re out with friends and wanna take your time.

Stopped by for dinner and honestly the service stood out the most. Washington took care of us and spoke perfect English, which made things easy. Food was solid too&mdash;starters and desserts were both good. Drinks had enough options. Nothing mind-blowing but a nice spot overall.

The banana nut bagel with hazelnut cream cheese was solid &mdash; crust had that real chew. Coffee was fine too. Price felt a bit steep for the size though.

The seasonal tasting menu is a true culinary journey, beautifully paced and absolutely worth it for such an unforgettable dining experience.

No. 4 of Local Restaurants in Quito

The tasting menu here is a solid deal&mdash;five courses with wine pairing and honestly the price felt fair for what you get. I mentioned a couple of dietary things and they handled it without making it awkward. The wine pairing was the highlight for me, each one matched the dish pretty well. Just a heads up, it&#39;s a bit quiet in there, but that worked fine for a chill dinner.

The lomo saltado was solid, really flavorful. My go-to for a quick lunch in Quito, for sure. Place gets busy around noon, so it&#39;s not the quietest, but the food comes out fast. Just wish they&#39;d turn the music down a notch, ha. Anyway, that plate hit the spot today.

The cocktails are a highlight here, expertly crafted and perfectly complementing the gourmet dishes.

Owner cooks and runs the place himself. Gringo cheeseburger was solid, really juicy. He also gave me some good tips about Quito. Worth stopping by if you&#39;re in the area.

Been coming here for a while now, and the ribs are still solid. Sauce runs a little sweet for me, but the meat&#39;s always tender. Fries could be more generous for what you pay, though. I keep coming back anyway, so that says something.

Came here for a quick lunch and the food was out super fast. Got the lunch special and honestly the portion was way bigger than I expected for the price. Solid choice if you&#39;re in the area.

The banchan spread was generous&mdash;six sides, and that kimchi had a proper fermented kick. Portions are huge, easily enough for two. Just don&#39;t come starving, the kitchen moves a bit slow since everything&#39;s made to order. Worth it though.
