Just returned from Peru and was craving some quality ceviche! This Ecuadorian place took me back :). Perfect amount of spice, packed with flavour, and amazing vegan options too. Get the homemade juice too <3 In addition to having amazing food, the owner has the absolute best vibe and always makes sure you are well taken care of. My go-to spot for the past few months!

The fish and chips is delicious, the fish is fresh and flavorful. I also love the pan de yuca. You can buy them frozen and bake them at home. They’re absolutely delicious!

Se nos antojó un encebollado después de grabar, y encontramos tremenda hueca. De esos encebollados que te reviven el alma. Si andas por Hoboken, a solo 15 minutos de Jersey City, ya sabes dónde caer.
