La Querencia Review

Best known for its superb Ecuadoran dishes—try the seco de chivo (lamb stewed with fruit) or the langostinos flambéed in cognac—this restaurant has excellent views of Quito from its rustic fireside dining room. You can also eat in the serene outdoor garden. Some nights the friendly waiters can be heard singing along to soft Ecuadoran music as they roam the restaurant.

    We had a delicious meal here - starters were particularly good - humitas (little corn tamales), stuffed cheese tortillas and a delicious soup (locro de queso, or potatoes with cheese). The entree, a lamb stew, was a little tough, and dessert, figs, were way too sweet.
