El Costeñito - Restaurant Pedernales - Ecuador

El Costeñito is an airy, friendly, family-run restaurant located right in the middle of the malecon, the main drag in Pedernales. Like most restaurants in town, it specializes in fresh seafood, available in a variety of sauces. A la diabla is a shrimp sauce, a la diabla is a mildly spicy red sauce, al ajillo is a creamy garlic sauce and encocada is a coconut sauce, famous on the coast.

You may simply prefer your seafood "a la plancha" which is grilled in a bit of oil. The seafood is so good and fresh that it doesn't need any sauces or spices.
