Casa Julián

Guayaquil, Ecuador

Housed within the historic 19th century Hotel del Parque inside the tropical Parque Histórico Guayaquil, Casa Julián is steeped in nature, surrounded by flora and fauna and just yards away from the Daule River. A tranquil place to dine to the sound of monkeys, birds and the river breeze, the restaurant specialises in seafood from the nearby Pacific Coast, as well as local ingredients like cacao, avocado and coconut. An à la carte menu explores regional tapas including crispy plantain parcels and local fish ceviche, with mains such as coconut prawns. For those who want to try a bit of everything based on what’s available on the day, the four- or five-course tasting menu is an excellent choice, and the cocktails are unmissable too.
