If I could leave more stars I would! If you are in the neighborhood don't miss out! Please do not be afraid to try this place if you are unfamiliar/intimidated by the food or language. If you have any questions they will gladly help you with suggestions and pronunciation. If you choose to opt out you WILL be doing yourselves a disservice. It will leave you with not only wanting to take the food home but bottling the fragrance of the cuisine and the energy of the staff! The waitress we had was hands down the best I have every had in all of my dining experiences. We were not just left with full stomachs but full of emotions. She came up in conversations for the remainder of our trip. Linel I hope this universe blesses you with everything & more that you deserve as well as protects you all.

The food was amazing! Super flavorful and great sauces. The NY steak was so juicy. The service was great and everyone was so kind and attentive. We tried the tomato fruit smoothie and it was amazing!

★★★★★ 5.0 Kelcie Young · Jan 2026

Amazing food and service! We came with a big group and they were very accommodating and attentive! The drinks were great, especially the Paloma and caipirinha. Try the canastas de camaron for an appetizer! Our group’s entrees were all tasty, I had the lomo saltado and it was delicious! We can’t wait to come back for brunch!

Great Ecuadorian food! They have the best Peruvian ceviche in town, and love my caipirinha(just requested more lime and less sweet)

★★★★★ 5.0 Kaline S-M · Feb 2026

Absolutely delicious dinner at Chulla Vida!! I had the Encocado de Camarones & a tasty tequila/pineapple/mango cocktail recommended by our waitress. Nice, cozy place, great staff, good cocktail menu. The kids menu had good choices for my non-adventurous kids. I already have a list of dishes I want to try next time. We highly recommend you give them your support.
