URKO

“Fantastic eating experience! Lovely wines to compliment explosive flavours- enjoy the flavours in each dish We enjoyed the 6 tasters but could have taken 10- each dish provided an immense tasting experience - the sparkling wine was Devine - the staff were lovely especially our waiter We would highly recommend this experience 😁”

“A creative twist on authentic local ingredients. Every dish was fantastic with lovely presentation. The service was excellent with attentive staff. Would highly recommend!”

“Excellent food, all dishes were with local ingredients. Fantastic service , they accommodated all our requests. Cocktails were super good too! Best meal we had in Quito !”

“Urko was an absolute delight from minute one. Their staff was so welcoming, the cozy garden-like environment so soothing, and the FOOD - every course blew us away. Last night we enjoyed the 6 course tasting menu, one regular and one pescatarian. The regular and pescatarian options were mostly the same (just a couple tiny changes in the early rounds) but we were happy to try both the Pork and the Sea Bass as the main protein. The flavors, textures, and attention to detail (down to the smallest flower petals) were incredible. Since they rotate menus 4 times per year I would love to come back and try another “season” (and maybe try the 10 course tasting menu…though to be honest I was pleasantly full after the 6!). Although I think they keep a table or two open for walk-ins, I would highly recommend making a reservation - we were lucky enough to get one day-of for an early time slot!”

“I enjoyed the culinary experience here. I will say, the aesthetics of the dishes are better than the taste. Most of the courses feel experimental, with the priority being creativity and visuals over the taste. The service was very good, and you also get ponchos on your seats which you can buy for $25 each. Overall it's a good restaurant, but relative to the price you pay it isn't outstanding.”
