This place was amazing! I was transported back to Ecuador and felt like I was in the Esmereldas again. I had delicious ceviche and a guanabana milkshake. The staff was so nice. Music was playing and it was a welcome, cooling respite after a day at the beach. They were cash only but also had a Zelle QR code in case you didn't have any. I can't wait to come back!

After eating at this restaurant for a couple of times, I can speak with confidence when I say the flavors in their food are consistently great. This is an authentic Ecuadorian restaurant right by the beach, can’t go wrong with anything in the menu. My favorite picks are the encebollado de pescado, bollo de pescado, chaulafan and arroz con menestra y carne. Though seafood is a big part of their menu, do not take for granted their meat dishes. Their staff is very friendly and attentive. A hidden gem in Rockaway.

Cash only! Great authentic Ecuadorian food! We ordered the Encebollado, Fritada and Chaulafan. Service was friendly and fast and child friendly. No hidden charges. Definitely what Rockaway needed to feel like home.

An utter disappointment. When walking in, if you don't know how seating works, dont expect to be guided unless you physically haul attention. 1 person is the waitresses, cashier, dj, oh and in her words daughter of the owner. Because this individual seemed overwhelmed with the clientele present and walking in, I've decided to take my order to go. Not only I was charged $1 extra per dish because it is now to go, but was also confronted with an extremely defensive attitude because I questioned why the sudden upcharge because I was leaving out of consideration. Some clients came in, sat and walked out when noticing on the inside of the establishment that they only take cash, apparently not obvious on the outside. Long story short, this place takes cash only, be ready to be extremely patient and not persay appreciated as a customer. Worse if it's your first time there.
