I was just looking for a quick spot for lunch, & I ended up being really glad that I ran into this place. Everyone was super friendly, great service, & the food was great! The meat was well cooked & coming off the bone. The music is great. I haven't been to an Ecuadorian place in a long while, & I'm happy that Montreal now has this amazing restaurant. I have nothing but praise to say & hope more people give it a try!

Kawsay is amazing! The food was delicious & the presentation was really high-end. The caldo de bolas & the blue cheese mouchin were definitely the highlights, & the plantain & honey dessert was the perfect way to finish. Camila was an incredible host,super attentive & gave us great recommendations. Plus, the music & vibe there are just great. 10/10 recommended!

La verdad es que este restaurante con todas nuestras expectativas: comida, atención y ambiente. Comenzamos con el'Trío Kawsay' (corviche, muchín de yuca y empanada de verde), los cuales están ricos y súper fresco. De plato fuerte pedimos Caldo de bolas y Cazuela de mariscos; la sazón es increíble y realmente auténtica. Acompanamos todo con jugos naturales de tomate de árbol y naranjilla que estaban en su punto. La atención fue de diez, siempre despejando dudas y explicándonos cada plato con detalle. Además, el ambiente es muy acogedor, todo impecable y con la música al volumen justo para disfrutar ya sea en familia o con amigos. Recomendadísimo!!
