Las Redes

Frommer's Review

This is a great alternative to the more stuffy, and more expensive, Mare Nostrum. Plus, this place serves the best ceviche in Quito. You can order any type of ceviche, from clams to octopus to fish or shrimp. The chefs here also do an excellent job with all sorts of seafood. One of the specialties is the gran mariscada, an enormous, beautiful platter of assorted sizzling seafood. The arroz con mariscos (yellow rice with peppers, onions, mussels, clams, shrimp, calamari, octopus, and crayfish) is also delicious. Even though Las Redes is on one of the busiest streets of Quito, the simple wood tables and fishnets hanging from the ceilings make you feel as though you are at a local seafood joint on the coast.
