    This was one of the best meals we’ve ever had. One night in Quito on our way home from Galapagos trip, and tour guide recommended Zazu. I enjoyed the Vegetarian tasting menu, which combined local ingredients in creative small plates - the Roasted Cauliflower, and Risotto with Sweet Potato were delicious and the last plate with mushrooms, barley and poached egg had an incredible sweet & savory blend. My husband’s grilled sea bass was tender, moist & flavorful, with mussels & claims. All dishes were beautifully presented. Service was excellent!

    Would not recommend this place to anyone. Service was terrible. They forgot to put in our entree orders when we ordered the appetizer. Then they waited another 20 minutes and came back only to say they didn’t have the entree we wanted. We spent over 1 & 1/2 hours there with just appetizers and drinks. Absolutely ridiculous! And no remorse or empathy from the server. The restaurant only had a few other customers at this time as well.

    Wonderful experience! Cutting edge gastronomy and service! Started with classic cocktails (martini and gin gimlet) and then moved to their top-rated appetizers and main courses. Personable service. Great interior decoration. Will be back!
