The food is ridiculously overpriced and there is nothing special about it. Their rice dishes were $22.95. For $22.95 I got a bowl of white rice with a few grilled strips of chicken breast. There was nothing especially Ecuadorian about that dish. I also ordered a mediocre mango smoothie ($9.00). The rice and shrimp dish was halfway decent but not worth $ 22.95. I also ordered tostones which are fried plantains, again nothing special. The wait was long, no A/C and it was cash only. We ended paying over $60.00 for mediocre diner food takeout. Avoid this restaurant it’s a rip-off.

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.
