★★★★★ 5.0 Mikaela Romero · Nov 2025

I went to this place a few days ago and I highly recommend it. It's the first Ecuadorian restaurant where I felt right at home. The food was incredible; I'd love to go back to try more dishes. The dessert is highly recommended. And the soursop juice, which I hadn't had in ages, was fantastic. They don't sell alcoholic beverages. We were able to get a table right away during the week without any problem. I don't remember the waiter's name, but he was very attentive the whole time.

Coming back asap! Had live music, food was incredible and we all ordered different plates and everything was insanely delicious. Atmosphere was great, service was super impressive. Went for lunch on a Saturday. Batidos were also a must!

I tried Ecuadorian food for the first time, and it was absolutely incredible. The atmosphere was wonderful, with saxophone music filling the air, and the BOYBeer paired perfectly with the meal. Everything was seasoned to perfection. I especially loved the Cazuela—a rich, thick, curry-like dish that goes so well with rice. Even after returning to Korea, I still find myself craving it. A truly memorable dining experience!

Have been wanting to find an Ecuadorian place that felt authentic, this was the place. Really good service from the start and the atmosphere was great as well. The food was amazing and came in really big portions, really tasty just like an actual Ecuadorian dish, would def recommend if you are ever looking for a great atmosphere and authentic Ecuadorian food.

We drove from Orange county, NY to try this restaurant. I have been wanting to go for months and we finally went for my birthday. I called ahead and they didn't take reservations. That's unfortunate. We got there and we're told 1hr and 20min wait. That was insane but we took the chance and waited since we weren't close to home. After waiting about 70 min, in our car and some of us stood out in the cold since the place is small and there is no where to wait inside, we had even more delays because we were told that our party of 8 had to wait since the owner had arrived with some guests. I was clearly disappointed but in the end. They made adjustments for us and ended up giving us the table that was meant for the owners guests to us. Rightfully so. The servers were friendly, the food was very
