Be different explore other cultures foods .staff was friendly and atmosphere was great

5:00 pm 9/22/24 I ordered two dinners. The waitress informed that the faucet water is brown and I should order bottled water. I shared that if the water is brown NYS regulations should be informed and the restaurant should be closed until they cure the situation . I cancelled my order of pescado encebillado. Waitress said that the fish was cooked this morning in clear water. I shared that’s even worse because it is not freshly cooked but leftover fish - again I stressed I did not want my order to and would pay only for the tostados con queso, fritada, coffee and batido and bottled water. I literally lost my appetite . Either (1)this waitress was pressing with compromised water unfit for consumption to manipulate more water bottles purchased or (2)the restaurant should be closed because

our experience at this restaurant was poor. We were excited to have found an Ecuadorian restaurant. FIRST, we never got served any water and cutlery when we arrived . Food was bland and our orders delayed; when served, we were given plastic forks and knives wrapped in napkins . When we asked why were we given plastic cutlery, we were told that the silver cutlery had not been washed because there is no one at the kitchen to do so . Omg! ALSO, their menu is very limited .labs they do not make an efforts to substitute or give sides. They did not have the traditional and popular dishes. I had the pargo fish in oven. The fish had no flavor at all. I had to add some salt. The “fresh” juice was powder mixes or it was mostly water . LAST, the place was not kept clean . A table behind us was no

Worst food ever I had, save your money 💰

Do not go here! Food was cold and nasty! Prices are not correct, they over charge! I tried asking the waitress to speak to the owner and she completely refused and was rude! Don’t waste your time and money. Better places in town!
