• Great food, organic ingredients, pleasant ambience

Quinua is a lovely place. They start with quality organic ingredients, and then prepare them with love and without anything artificial, and serve them as a balanced meal with a nice blend of pleasing flavors and textures. I honestly don't understand the unsatisfied review below. Quniua's food isn't overly seasoned, and maybe that's why one person found it lacking in flavor, but since the ingredients they use are fresh, organic, and delicious, there's little need for seasoning. The atmosphere is pleasant and the staff are gentle and sweet. I could happily eat here every day (and probably will while i'm in Quito). There's a notice board in the back that describes the courses in the daily set menu, and also offers a few extras. You place your order at the counter and then pick up your tray when they serve it (though you can also just sit at a table they'll bring it to you). Don't miss the pastries, desserts, and other items in the display case. They also have a few shelves of natural foods produced by an Ecuadorian women's cooperative. Highly recommended. Enjoy!
