This nice little restaurant serves up authentic German food at a good value. The owners are a delight and make you feel welcome. Locals and travelers frequent Lecka. I've eaten here several times and have always walked away happy with both service and quality of the food.

3. Mar Rojo
Reviewed By jckoven
Despite being a reasonably sized city of some 200,000 inhabitants with a strong tradition in the arts and education, Loja is woefully lacking in good restaurants. As a weekly visitor (I live in a small mountain village, some 40 kilometers away) I have been consistently disappointed in an almost uniform lack of culinary skills in local kitchens that are typically manned by cooks rather than chefs.Mar Rojo (literally: Red Sea) is a welcome exception. The award winning, 20-page menu, interspersed with colorful images by the creative design firm of Deseño Flandoli, provides an impressive assortment of appetizers, soups, salads, pastas along with entrees ranging from chicken (served in nine creative dishes) and meats (steak, baby back ribs, gourmet burgers, etc.), shrimp, fish and ceviches (fresh, raw fish marinated in citrus juices spiced with garlic, herbs and peppers). The restaurant is looked over by the two Luises â a father and son team that make it their business to make you feel welcome and valued. A member of our party needed several recipe adjustments because of her diet requirements: no problem. My Pollo al Jerez (rolled chicken in a creamy Cadiz sherry and marjoram sauce) was exquisite. I was torn between that dish and the Chicken Cordon Bleu or the Camarones al Ajillo (garlic shrimp) â each only $7.90. Almost every one of the chefâs suggestions, including Chateaubriand, Hungarian Goulash, and Prawns in your choice of spicy, Tex-Mex, brandy, or Thai sauces are on my must-try list.If you can, leave room for desert â you can decide among a very tempting selection of decadent finales â all under $4.00.Bottom line: Excellent Value! A great dining experience with an unusually varied selection of dishes in a very comfortable, modern setting. The restaurant is open Monday through Saturday from 10:30 AM to 10:30 PM and Sundays from 10:30 AM (brunch) to 4:00 PM. It is located in a residential neighborhood, so there are far less people during lunch. Buen provecho! (Bon Appetit!) Please stop by and say hello. I expect to become a regular.Av.

Visited on a Thursday and wasn't that packed. The atmosphere is great with dimmed lights and a cool beer garden. The bartender, Ricardo, stood out demonstrating great knowledge of music, world politics, history and business. Service was prompt and immaculate. Try the michelada by all means! Pricewise, it would turn off a great deal of customers though..
