Vista Hermosa (Itchimbía)

Nice view of the center of Quito, the food was tasty. If they had more Ecuadorian dishes on their menú I would rathe it higher. Overall good dinning experience!!

Incredible view of Quito’s downtown. From here you can see the basílica, plaza de toros, the famous Virgen del Panecillo, the iglesia de San Francisco, and the palacio de gobierno among others. The menu is very affordable and the food quality is great! My suggestion is to come around 17hrs so you can have a coffee and see the difference between the day and the amazing lighted up downtown. Check out my photos (the real view is better than the photo)

Fantastic kitchen ♥️

I went there last night because of the beautiful view. When I arrived with family and friends, we requested a table for 4 people near the window so that we could appreciate the view. The host said there weren't any. This restaurant has several floors so that you can have an opportunity to sit closer to the window. However there were other tables closest to the windows. He didn't acknowledge us and so we asked a waiter who graciously sat us at a table near the window. Once our waiter came to take our order, he told us that every item we requested wasn't available. So we had to choose items that really weren't what we wanted. Once our food arrived, they gave us items that we didn't want because they didn't have the requests made. For example, my friend ordered potatoes, but the waiter brought her French fries instead and he said it was because they didn't have the potatoes she wanted. I ordered the Lomo Sandwich. It was too salty. I didn't finish my dish, so I asked to take it home, but they threw it away instead. Lastly, but most importantly, we all got food poisoning. Vomiting, diarrhea, chills, and stomach pain. This was the only meal we ate together that day and we all have the same symptoms. The food was too pricey for the quality... especially since I paid for food poisoning. While the view was great, this place should not be in the business of serving food to human beings. As I lay in my bed in pain and disgust from last night's experience, I warn everyone who is thinking about eating here to really consider the cost of becoming ill for the sake of the view.

Nice view and ok food. Basically you pay for the view.
