Best dinner we had while in the Galapagos. Everything we had was delicious, even the desserts. The atmosphere just adds to the food, you can watch the baby sharks swim around while you eat. We went on a recommendation from our host and it did not disappoint. As a vegetarian, we had limited options on actual menu but they were also able to make one the corn ceviche appetizer with mushrooms instead of tuna for me. Food was delicious, and my favorite was the corn yuca. Location is a great spot to enjoy the sunset. We got there just as they opened so we were able to get a table without reservation but I recommend getting one to make sure you get a prime location with water and sharks that like to swim in the area. They also took credit card without additional fees, which is much appreciated. Take the water taxi and have an amazing experience, you won’t regret it! Amazing restaurant! Had a brilliant time here - looking at the baby sharks and rays over the side while we ate and drank was really special. Menu was extensive, prices were reasonable (cheaper than eating on the main street) and the service was great. Take the water taxi from the main dock for $1 each. The restaurant will order you one to get back. Makes the experience even more unique.

I definitely overthought getting here. Just go to the main pier and pay $1 for a water taxi. When you’re ready to leave, just let them know and they will get a water taxi to come by and take you back at whatever time you want to leave. As far as the ambience, this place is #1! We Sat next to the water. I love the wooded-island feel and you see tons of reef sharks below you. Wasn’t crowded at prime dinner hours too (we went in late August). The food was good - nothing special. It was however, an all time ambience experience that I’d forsure recommend!

Delicious dinner in such a special place! The beef tacos for starters were DELICIOUS! The prawns and scallops were overcooked (maybe we needed to turn off fire earlier? But nobody recommended anything.) The main of the seafood tagliatelle was divine - the sauce was unreal. I need to find a way to replicate that sauce. The apple strudel was definitely not to my liking, but we live in Central Europe so my standards are very high for that. The service was very friendly and professional.
