Nice little hole in the wall. The owner is very friendly and polite. The food is Ecuadorian and is very good. Saltado pollo was only a bit salty, so it was a nice balance. Tostones were fried fresh and also softly salted so tasted very nice. Spicy chicken tacos are medium spicy and very nicely marinated. Bathroom is clean and stocked. Very nice little hole in the wall and that is the only small issue. It doesn’t have much seating, which i think they can improve on. - Paul Lu
