Fantastic! A little difficult to find right now because there's a ton of construction on the road in front of it and the building is kind of a maze. But! Once we found the place, it was great! We both got beef bowls and they were delicious!

These days, food at food halls, in Montreal is far better than in the past and La Hueca is a reminder of that flattering pattern. What La Hueca said, La Hueca did: the flavour profiles were always genuinely Ecuadorian where it was advertised and that is, of course, a great thing. You have the Ecuadorian food staples, indeed, but you also have the bestsellers of South American and/or Latin American  food such as salchipapas, empanadas, ceviche, etc. Next time, I will try the bowls (they look tempting). The food was great and the value too (quality  food and yet, the tab is not high). A strong coup de coeur! PS: the service of the young classy and educated lady who was the counter attendant on this Monday July 13th was extraordinary / world class for this category of casual dining (at some point, a dude came and did interrupt her while she was talking to me.  She excused herself to converse with the dude. You do not see such classy behavior at plenty of restaurants, in this day and age, so imagine at a food hall). Last but not least, plenty of local seasoned food enthusiasts as well as food experts told me that their restaurant Kawsay is one of the best restaurants in town (the quality of their brunch is highly praised, their dinner menu too, etc.), so I am looking forward to eating at Kawsay as well. Long Live La Hueca!

Everything is delicious but the open hours are sooo bad, closing everyday at 4pm? And on weekends is closed? Every time I’m craving your food is closed and I get so discouraged 🫤

It was ok in general. We tried the bowls, the fish was tasty but over-browend fried, the pork was very good, the encurtido a little basic, loved the pineapple! The yuca was really good but the potatoes not as expected. Sweet mayo was very good, not sure about the Ají de la casa, and the chimichurri was ok. Guanabana juice was very good! Nice people, good service.

We had no idea what an Ecuadorean meal would be like. It was an absolute banger. We had their tofu bowls and the flavors were just amazing.
