"Food is always great! It one of my favorite places to eat authentic Ecuadorian dishes"

"Thought we were going to experience a local favorite, a hole in the wall with delicious Ecuadorian food. Unfortunately we were disappointed. The food was very bland. I had the hen stew with rice, slaw and plantain and my husband had the grilled chicken (churrasco and we requested chicken instead of steak). For 16.99 I would have expected at least a drumstick or breast, instead they gave me a neck, foot, a mystery back/spine piece, and another mystery piece that may have contained some thigh. It was very minimal meat. The flavor was good but there was very minimal seasoning. A little salt and pepper would have transformed this subpar experience into a solidly good experience. The rice was plain but good, the slaw came with avocado and it was good, and the half of plantain was naturally delicious. The grilled chicken platter was also bland and barely grilled. The guava and blackberry juices were good. Gratuity/service charge was included. Total bill was a little under $60. The place was packed on a rainy day so it seems we’re the only disappointed ones. Try for yourself and see how it is."

"Im Ecuadorian and would not recommend this place to anyone. Very greasy , old food. The food is not authentic. Dipped and overloaded with oil . Not Ecuadorian. It is true, there are not many Ecuadorian places in the Bronx , but GO ELSEWHERE. I tried this place bc it’s close to me - but I would have rather crossed the bridge to queens. HORRIBLY MADE “food”."

"The price for the amount of food given is okay the rice and beans tasted absolutely delicious the fried pork could’ve used alot more seasoning. Very nice host and the food for takeout was extremely fast. If it wasn’t for the seasoning on the pork being a bit Bland I would’ve given it five stars. Overall a good place to get some decent Ecuadorian food, I will try it a second time to see how the seasoning is on a different dish."
