HASTA LA VUELTA SEÑOR — Restaurant in Centro Histórico

My wife, Lynn, and I were in Independence Square and were looking for a charming place to eat. I checked Google maps and found this gem. It’s located in Palacio Arzobispal on the north side of the square. [A word of advice, don’t get distracted by the restaurants and their promoters along the way and make sure you go to the third floor where this restaurant is located.] We started with ceviche which was excellent. Lynn then ordered the Lomo a la Pimienta (Grilled steak in pepper sauce) and I chose the Seco de chivo (Special lamb stew). Both were prepared perfectly and tasted delicious. Besides the great food and a wonderful atmosphere the service was perfection. Edison our server was friendly, very professional and made great suggestions when asked. The owner and her daughter (it’s a family business) both stopped by to make sure everything was good. We enjoyed a nice chat. When in Old Town Quito definitely enjoy a delightful meal here. I highly recommend Hasta la...

First evening in Quito. This restaurant was recommended by a friend of our travel companions who is originally from Quito. So we decided to check it out. We had no reservation and was hoping to be able to get in. Surprisingly, it was not very busy, 1800 on a Tuesday, so we were seated right away. Ordered our drinks, Pisco sours and sangria and then ordered some appetizers with the help of the gentleman serving us. He was very helpful picking out dishes and making recommendations. We ordered 5 appetizer dishes to share and they were all ver good. Mains followed and did not disappoint. After a little break, we ordered the top 2 deserts our server recommended and again, they were both a hit with our group. Service was excellent, the restaurant is nice and bright and comfortable and the food was...

Great place for tasting the typical Ecuadorian cuisine, their wide variety of local dishes will satisfy your demands.

The place is famous for its architecture and rich history, even the name of the place comes from ancient local stories that will entertain your evening, you might read about the religious figure with a punny and funny narrative "padre Almeida".

Make sure that you try this place, their offer of a specially made local wine with the logo of the restaurant will pair perfectly with your food.

Pay attention to their entrance since it's a bit tricky to find, you must search for a passage in front of the central park in Quito, once in the passage, head all the way to the back! Ask the locals, it's widely known.

Hasta la...
