Things to do in Puerto Lopez
We stopped in last night, this place is quite close to our lodging. It's a large restaurant and has many locals as well as tourists stopping to eat. Vern had one of the "platos" with carne (flank steak) that was grilled in front of us. It came with two fried plantain rounds, rice and lentils and a salad. He had a really fresh lemonade. I ordered spaghetti with cheese and had a banana smoothie (it was excellent). The sauce on the spaghetti wasn't tomato, it was red but thin and sort of sweet. I liked it. Huge portions on both meals. I must have had two cups of spaghetti, it came with a salad and four fried plantain rounds. Vern had a mayo sauce with garlic (green) which we both used on the plantains and it was very tasty. btw, the plantains were softer and better tasting than most we've had. The service was very good and the people watching on the main street fronting the beach was awesome.

We ended up going here a few times because the first time was so incredible, Mixto Encocado and Garlic Lobster (not Aussie prices so had to experience!) - great portion sizes and fair price for the flavour and service we got there. Unfortunately each time after didn't quite hit the mark and ended up with a pretty dodgy stomach the next day pretty much everytime. Its right up the end as you head towards the fishermans markets and pier - good location for lunch and really cheap prices for the serving size. Highly recommend an encocado dish as the flavour is really good and the lobster was cooked perfectly.

We only had drinks here, so this isnât a review of the full restaurant. Four of us stopped here for pre-dinner cocktails, since it looked like an inviting bar. Service was pleasant, if very slow. Each of us ordered a different drinkâManhattan, Daiquiri, Margarita, and white wine, and each of them tasted âoffâ. They were made and delivered (slowly) one at a time, and it appeared the ladies making drinks werenât quite sure how to make them. Atmosphere was pleasant, and the restaurant may be great, but we were disappointed in our drink experience.

I have reviewed this place before, but itâs time for an update since I posted their first review on TripAdvisor. They are in a new, even better location - central on the malecón in Puerto Lopez, right in the middle of town and directly on the beach. Everyone Iâve sent there (and that is a lot of people) still agrees itâs the best ceviche they have eaten anywhere. I go at least once a month to get my fix. Iâm also updating photos of the menu and location. Donât miss having awesome ceviche here right on the beach - I guarantee you wonât be disappointed!

We've been in Puerto Lopez for a week and we've eaten here three times. Other restaurants or basic eateries have no comparison to Ancora's menu and meals. We've both had the "Octopus Gallega Style", Vern's had the Tenderloin twice. We've had the tuna salad, green salad and the Caprese salad. I had the shrimp and the calamari dinners. Vern enjoys an espresso after our meal and for our dinner drinks I always enjoy the strawberry smoothie. Vern drinks the (plain) lemonade. Both our favorites is the Octopus. neither of us have ever had it prepared so it comes out this tender. Fantastic! The owners are a couple, he's Spanish and she's Ecuadorian, no wonder the food is so awesome. the service is outstanding. Highly recommend.

Relaxed place, quiet, to enjoy a good sunbath and beach; while enjoying the flavors of Spanish cuisine in a place with good atmosphere, good music and extensive facilities with climatisada room. The best seafood , from the sea to the table .
This place was amazing. Food was crazy good, Vicente and Maria are amazing hosts! There's no doubt this is a must for some authentic spanish food and super sweet meets!Thank you very much Julien for such motivating words and for such a high rating in your comment.
