About

La Hueca offers an authentic exploration of Ecuadorian traditions through vibrant and hearty preparations. The menu centers on the deep, savory notes of the encebollado and the dense, comforting texture of the bolon. Each bowl emphasizes fresh components assembled with care to preserve distinct, home-style flavors. These dishes carry a genuine warmth, relying on traditional recipes that prioritize satisfying, grounded ingredients over complex presentation. The atmosphere remains understated, allowing the rich spices and natural textures of the native cuisine to stand as the primary focus of every plate served in this modest space.

It's been a while since I did a food review but this place was so phenomenal I had to jump on immediately. There is a reason this place has 5 stars with 200+ reviews. The service is friendly & warm, the prices for the food is literally unbeatable for Montreal, & the FOOOD! Absolutely unreal food. Packed plates with a make you own bowl option. The food was the type of stuff that makes you dance with happiness. I cannot get over the quality of the food at such a good price. An absolute must try in Montreal. 100/10.

First time I try Ecuadorian food & La Hueca was great! Had the Ecuadorian marinated tofu bowl with a side of Yuca Great flavours & they give many options to customize the bowl. Their chimichuri & different mayo sauces compliment everything really well. Nice owners that took the time to explain to me what each item on the menu was & delivered the plate to my table Overall highly recommended for great flavours & really good price!

Great little place at the back of the Faubourg mall. Delicious food, fair prices & generous portions. Maybe took a few extra minutes than other food court options but well worth it! A hidden gem! The pulled pork «burger » was outstanding! Definitely recommended & can't wait to return!!!
