Most Popular Ecuadorean food in San Cristobal, Galapagos Islands, Ecuador
Discover Restaurants offering the best Ecuadorean food in San Cristobal, Galapagos Islands, Ecuador. Ages ago, a few volcanoes got together and decided to form an island. Gorgeous San Cristobal is a jewel of the Galapagos, where plump sea lions sun themselves on coral beaches and hermit crabs scuttle along peaceful lagoons. Snorkel or dive at Kicker Rock to explore the intricate remains of a lava cone, spot beautiful wildlife along the walking trails to aptly-named Frigatebird Hill, or frolic—slowly—with the legendarily large tortoises at the Galapaguera de Cerro Colorado nature preserve.

We did not have breakfast provided at our hotel and we found that most places were not open early enough for people to get breakfast before going out on day tours. This was the only place opened, near the port, that served breakfast. The breakfast was great, they had everything from a full breakfast to a fast continental breakfast. Go here if you want to eat before going out on your day trips!

We went to the Miconia restaurant several times on a recent trip to San Cristobal. They have very nice seating in an upstairs, open-air restaurant (you can eat out in front of the place too). Good friendly, fast, somewhat English speaking service. Good menu...good prices. Check it out for sure!!

We are located in the heart of the town, with the best view! Best sunset view of the harbour, best happy hour spot (2x1), and best CEVICHE in town!

Service here was really good. We really enjoyed the food. The sunset was phenomenal! They have a nice wine list. It was a little expensive compared to other places, but probably worth it.

This place is great! They do not have everything on the menu and they did not have wine. But we drank beer and ordered grilled food. They food was good. It was a fun place to eat though... not much English spoken here.

Came here in October 2017 with my boyfriend, both of us being vegan. There is a separate vegetarian menu (and likely most items are vegan). I loved the local feel to this place instead of a tourist trap. Pasta was decent and my boyfriend really liked his empanada.

We did not have any main type meals, rather on three nights went for pre dinner drinks and a little accompanying sushi . Great cocktails and supper food and nice attentive staff . Great place to hang out after people finish their snorkeling, diving , island visits for the day.

We ate here while on a tour and while it may have been a restaurant we would have chosen if we were given our own choice, it was a decent option. The soup served as a starter was excellent. We had fish, rice, and veggies for our main dish and it was decent. Wouldn't highly recommend but wouldn't advice against stopping here either.

What a setting - beautifully decorated restaurant overlooking the ocean. Plentiful menu with lots of options. Food is prepared for you while you tour the farm - takes approximately 45mins - 1hour. Our guide, Marco, was exceptional - informative and enthusiastic. We tried many of the fruits and veg along the way. Food was excellent and very fresh. Would highly recommend coming for lunch before/after a visit to Punta Chino Beach.

We were recommended this place by a local guide and loved it so much we went again even though we only had a short stay in San Cristobal. The interior is packed full of strange ship related objects that are so interesting to look at. The food is the main attraction however, and we particularly enjoyed the whole fried brujo (scorpion fish) and the seafood rice (large portions!). The fish and langoustines come in a range of sizes and prices which are not cheap but comparable to the other places in San Cristobal. Overall the atmosphere was relaxed but fun, and we really appreciated the popcorn appetiser with aji (spicy sauce).

The art of culinary combined with culture is a unique experience. Muyu is a charming place in Puerto Baquerizo, San Cristobal island. Try the food, coffee and dessert all with locals products and Ecuadorian production. Btw the nature itâs beautiful you can see a lot of sea lions in front of you!
