I got the seco de pollo, and a lovely Quaker drink I had found previously only in Ecuador! the service was fast and everybody was working very hard and the place was very clean. they were watching a soap opera on TV and I wanted to stay to find out what happened...haha. We also got 3 Humitas to go, but they didnt have cheese in them. I forgot to ask if they have with cheese or if i could request it. They were still wonderful, and not dry like so many other restaurants. I've only been here once but it's already my favorite place. to be fair, my fiance is from Ecuador and I really love this food! be sure to try the hot sauce, it was wonderful. even on the rice! we didn't even have to pay for street parking, it was no charge! it was a little bit hard to see the sign, it's right next to the lingerie store.

They were so gracious to get us samples for the Flavors of Albany Park festival. Loved this spot for Ecuadorian food. The pork was so tender. Will definitely come back to try more.
