Review Summary

Across reviews, La Hueca is described as a charming, affordable hidden gem delivering bold, authentic Ecuadorian flavors in a generous, customizable bowl format. Diners praise the friendly, attentive service and warm atmosphere, with standout dishes like encebollado, bolon, ceviche, empanadas, locro de papa, and the tres leches cake that evoke home cooking. The place is noted for good value and portions, and many say the bowls are packed with flavor and ingredients you can mix to taste. A few criticisms appear, such as inconsistency with encebollado compared to the Guayaquil style, chifles not crispy, and a pulled pork bowl that can be watery, but these do not derail the overall positive impression. The location inside a mall food court is described as a bit hard to find, yet the discovery is part of the charm for many visitors who say they would return weekly or recommend it to others.

Great service by the owner. I am ecuadorian & this is probably the best encebollado I have ever tried. Even outside Ecuador. My son had the ceviche. The food is as close or even better than back home. Highly recommended.

Honestly one of my top lunch spots in Montreal-if not the top. I've been coming to La Hueca for the past year & have tried a variety of dishes from their menu, & every single one has been absolutely amazing. The flavours are bold, authentic, & incredibly satisfying.

I'm not usually the type to write reviews, but I felt compelled because they genuinely deserve the recognition. The owner is super friendly, & you can order either in person or through their easy-to-use automated screen. I love that there's a picture for every dish.

From the beef Empanada, Locro de Papa, shrimp ceviche soup, to their sandwiches & bowls-everything is bursting with flavour. Pure magic.

If you haven't been yet, do yourself a favour & GO.

Muy rico y muy buen servicio. Un poco escondido pero vale la pena ademas que tiene una linda vista al antiguo convento, actual biblioteca de concordia. Prueben el ceviche!

Extrano muchísimo la comida de mi Ecuador así que cuando vi que había un restaurante de comida ecuatoriana cerca a mi hotel, salí como disparada a probarlo. Me encantó la empanada de queso que compré y el senor que me sirvió fue muy amable. El menú incluye encebollado (eso probaré a la próxima!), salchipapa, bols con varias opciones de proteínas, sanduches y ceviche. Tienen varias opciones de sides, incluyendo patacones y yuca. Opciones de bebida incluyen Inca Cola, Manzana y Tropical

The people & service was absolutely wonderful but I'm sad to say that as an Ecuadorian this did not taste authentic. The ceviche that were ordered was overcooked, super soft, mushy, & oily. The empanadas ordered were so oil the napkin was drenched & dripping in oil. The only thing that was good were the drinks & the bowls. Super disappointed with the rest.

Absolutely delicious. I have never appreciated "cold soups" before I tasted their Jijipijapa Ceviche. Delicious!!! A very cute "hole in the wall vibe"
