There is a Peruvian sensibility to the fresh seafood served at this relaxed, open-air beachfront spot. It offers fried rice with shellfish, garlic crab and nine varieties of ceviche. When it's time for dessert, don't doubt the house coffee, which comes from the family finca in Loja down south. Like other restaurants in the area, Fabiola will rent you a comfy room.
Fabiola's son Max runs a similarly themed, but less expensive spot further down by the beach, El Ajicito.
