I spent about 10 days in Puerto Ayora and frequented this bar with a couple buddies for drinks. We never had dinner there, so I can't comment on the food, but I do know that new owners have recently taken over and are working to improve everything. The couple that owns the restaurant was super friendly to us, and always... More

My wife and I spent 6 days in Galapagos on San Cristobal, Santa Cruz, and Isabella. We never had one bad meal until this place. Really! Every restaurant was great, with a range of prices. My wife ordered the mixed seafood with spaghetti for $13 and it was overcooked bad! She told the waiter, nicely, that is was dry and... More

This is a great restaurant, however a bit pricey. Ambience is quite funky. The tuna steak on a lava rock although expensive definitely delivers, fantastic presentation and amazing flavor.

The Galapagos is all about nature and I love that but Tintorera was a welcome respite. Great drinks, service, wifi, and the atmosphere is completely adorable. Indoor/outdoor in perfect combination and right in the middle of town.

This use to be my husband's favorite restaurant in Puerto Ayora. He loved the fresh fish cooked on the lava rock. This last time, however we were both very disappointed with our dishes. The portions were half the size they were in January 2012 and the prices had gone increased by almost 50%.

We enjoyed their food, especially the vegetarian options, which were varied and tasty, unlike every other place we tried in Puerto Ayora (on the rare occasion they were even available).

I tried a salad with shrimps. The sauce is very good. You can listen to some music, the personnel is friendly.

Hands down, one of the highlights of our honeymoon!!! The English-speaking server/bartender was amazing, making sure both of our visits were muy perfecto! She was so sweet and kind that she even made sure the entire bar posed for a group photo to the request of us! We will never forget this last night in Santa Cruz, even though we... More
