La Parrilla del Ñato is an enticing restaurant for travelers looking for a large, satisfying meal. The hungry budget traveler can munch on bread before a $4.00 foot-long, chicken sandwich arrives.

For someone looking to splurge, the challenge will be deciding with which Chilean wine to accompany the many seafood and pasta dishes that are available. Most people come for the parrillada, or grilled meats, but be careful when ordering from the un-translated menu. Make sure that if you ask for “morcilla” or “chinchulín” that you are ready to eat blood sausage or intestines.

Eating with a vegetarian? The ravioli in a rich, four-cheese sauce is to be savored slowly! If there is any room left after dinner, the menu also offers spectacular desserts such as a coconut flan (queso de coco) or an after-dinner sip of “Espíritu del Ecuador” from their full bar. This local chain of restaurants attracts Guayaquil’s minor celebrities with excellent quality food and prompt service, but do not expect any frills.

Traveler Reviews of La Parrilla del Ñato

GREAT STEAK PLACE

I went to this place last year with a few friends and we really enjoyed it. It was around eight of us- we ordered steak, potatoes, sangria, and the guys ordered beer. The bill was like 50 something... I thought it was VERY well worth it... :)
