"Fantastic place great plates service friendly and quick. Clean"
ENRIQUE RODRIGUEZ
"I love this place, however, I've been a client since they opened, and the portions of their shakes have reduced SO MUCH since last time I was here and this is the reason why I took one of the stars away. The flavor and taste are amazing, the Hawaiian sandwich is my favorite but now they have vegetarian options that are YUMMY!!!!"
Maria Fernanda Chirinos

You can find all this and much more in the unusual Guayaquil beach bar, the Frutabar, where the only thing lacking is sand inside the bar to make you think that you are next to the sea. The idea came about in the year 2000 with a simple menu of sandwiches, juices and fruit salads but it has now become a must with its tranquil nights, good music and delicious cocktails.
