    Platos muy típicos de la gastronomía de la costa ecuatoriana, con abundancia de mariscos. Considero que las porciones son muy buenas y van con la relación precio/calidad. Lo recomiendo, ya que tiene buena comida, buen ambiente y buena atención!

    Traditional Ecuadorian food with a modern, beautiful look. The flavors are sooo good and take you right back to Ecuador. The service is always courteous and informative. The ambiance is lively, it is not a huge place, so I would encourage reservations. This is my second visit, and will not be the last.

    I’m Ecuadorian and I have been to La Pata Gorda back in Samborondon and Urdesa. I knew I wouldn’t be exactly the same but I never thought I would be very disappointed. The place is cute and all but the main dishes were not .I order chopsue and the empachadito for my sister as a main dish . They were greasy I couldn’t enjoy it. Luckily my niece and nephew order the brujo fish which they really like. My cousin ordered the encebollado and he was pleased but let’s be honest when you come to La pata gorda you want to enjoy the flavors and remember the taste of the cangrejo ecuatoriano.You win some you lose some. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    La comida estuvo rica, sin embargo nosotros hicimos una reservación por nuestro aniversario y al llegar nos dieron cualquier mesa, los meseros no nos hicieron caso, vimos el trato de los meseros a otras mesas y era mejor que el que nos dieron. Al pedir la cuenta vimos que al resto de mesas les dieron un cóctel y a nosotros no nos dieron, al final nos dieron pero en general fue un mal servicio

    Everything was delicious! The service was outstanding. Our waiter Mr. Barron was very knowledgeable on the menu and wine list. We had an excellent experience will be going back again to explore more items on the menu.
