★★★★★ 5.0 Maria Moreno · Nov 2025

I'm Mexican but I love the food of this place! The roast pork (the skin is crispy and the meat is soft) is delicious. And chicken sex has an authentic flavor. It offers a wide variety of Ecuadorian products and the bread is very tasty

Didn't try the food but was super busy so my guess is it's good but left since it's in a sketchy area had serval homeless asking for change and was told after that had been a shooting not to long ago I wouldn't have been to worried myself if I didn't have my ebike that had to keep a eye on as well

★★★★★ 5.0 Juan Rodriguez III · Aug 2019

The Hornado they serve on the weekends is outstanding. I absolutely believe this is the best roasted pork in Chicago. Juicy meat, crunchy skin, delicious roasted garlic flavor. Do yourself a favor and get the orden of hornado. It comes with rice, potatoes, pickled onion and tomato salad, and a nice portion of the roasted pork. You will not regret it.
