Honestly, I have been to several Hare Krishna restaurant so far and never have I been disappointed. It's always such a nice atmosphere there, the food is always good and filling and rather inexpensive. Govindas in Quito is no exception, yet they have even a amazing venue on top of that. So there is a large table with plenty of plates and bowls you can take food from. On a smaller table you find the salad bar with sauces and oils and dressings. Sadly there are no signs indicating what kind of food (what it's called, what ingredients) there is. However, the staff will gladly advise you upon request and point out all vegan options. Once you have filled your plate it will be warmed over at the cashier's desk. They usually provide great gluten options; I was particularly amazed by their corn pancake. Food was taste- and flavourful, however, don't expect a gourmet experience, since all the dishes are prepared at midday or something to be rehashed later. Everything can be eaten cold as well though, just a matter of preference. You'll sit in an inner court of this Hare Krishna place, while in the rooms above you yoga classes and stuff are being held. I was there three times, always left satisfied. Price was fair. They sell some health stuff as well.
