    This was my 1st time eating here and it was delicious. The NY Steak was juicy and tasty. The rice and beans were flavorful, and the plantains were great. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for a filling lunch/dinner.

    The food here is very delicious. Great service and good prices. I got grilled chicken, steak and shrimp from here and everything was excellent.

    This is a hole in the wall spot that has some really good food! I always order the Salmon with vegies and rice, it's so well done and only costs $20. The serving size is huge! same goes for all of their other offerings. If I eat here for lunch I get so full that I have to skip dinner. A++ Highly recommended!

    The flavors were exquisite!!! The portion size was generous, and the staff was friendly. I ordered the steak with medium rare and it tastes great and tender. I really enjoyed the tres leches cake too!

    This Ecuadorian bbq place is a hidden gem. While the environment may initially feel like a typical lunch counter spot, take a minute to appreciate the ambience of the pit fire rotisserie. Don't pay any attention to the reviews that give "I've never been out of the US before and it shows". There is a bit of a language barrier but that's part of the experience of getting this level of authenticity. Also, the portions are huge. We can order two combos on Friday and still be eating off it all weekend. Finally, this spot may have the best milkshakes I've had since 1985.

    This place is freaking amazing! I just happened to stumble on one day walking past. I seen a lot of people and I’m like what’s the fuss about so I go in and check the menu out ended up ordering the grilled salmon with vegetables and fried rice. Let me tell you something. Let me tell you something every time I’m in East Orange New Jersey. This is my go to place.
