★★★★★ 5.0 Rae Bandle · Dec 2025

My husband and I, plus our two kids, celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary there. We celebrated yesterday. We go there to eat a lot. I felt like I should write about my experience and leave a review. We showed up an hour and 30 minutes before it closed. The waiter seated us near the inside of the restaurant instead of placing us in the back, like they normally do. Service was excellent last night—he kept our drinks full. The food was amazing. It was so joyful to experience Ecuadorian food since I’m half‑Ecuadorian (my dad’s side). I’m glad my kids got to taste a bit of Ecuador. We moved here last year from Idaho, and I’m excited to have found this place—actually discovered it on my birthday last year.

I came here with my stepmom and everything we ordered was amazing! Both of our meals were delicious, and we tried three different desserts —all of them were incredible. The service was great too super friendly and attentive. Definitely recommend this place, can’t wait to come back!

The flan was so good it made my husband cry. Food exceptional. Service exceptional. Atmosphere nice.

★★★★★ 5.0 Dev Padavath · Oct 2023

Loved this spot! Will definitely be back here to try as much as possible. The food was amazing. We started off with the plantains to start, which was amazing and I would highly recommend it. We enjoyed our main courses but wish I had something a little more flavorful instead of plain rice in my dish. The ribs were great and extremely flavorful. What really blew me away was the dessert we had! Would highly recommend having dessert here, and I might just stop back here just for the starters and dessert. The Service was great even though they were extremely busy.

The food is good. I tried tortilla de yuca as an appetizer and it was delicious. As main dish I tried arroz con carne, and it was not bad. The chicken is good but nothing special about that. The portions are big so I had the half of it to go. And also I tried their blackberry juice (don’t remember the name) the waiter recommended me and it was great - not too sweet and flavorful.
