If you're tired of Asian takeout, fried chicken, shawarma, sushi, mac&cheese, poke, ramen, burgers & beef noodles, then you owe it to yourself to check out La Hueca.

It's a South American (Ecuadorian) restaurant tucked away in a quiet food court downtown, in the same building as Marche Newon.

The food is uniquely flavored, delicious & really satisfying. Very comforting, especially on those cold, cold days.

I had the grilled chicken bowl - when I finished my meal, I was licking the bowl & already thinking of trying the other items on the menu. 2 carbs & 3 types of veg are included with the bowl so you know you're getting solid nutrition & real value for money.

I highly recommend a visit & do consider getting an extra order for the fam. You won't regret it.

June 2025: no change to my review, still an excellent choice for a great meal downtown.

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.

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!
