"Fantastic Ecuadorian restaurant! We enjoyed dishes like the 'sopa marinera completa', 'arroz con mariscos', 'chicken breast with rice and beans', and 'churrasco ecuatoriano', complemented by refreshing mojitos and tomate de arbol. Every dish was delicious, and the drinks were excellent too. The waitstaff was friendly, the ambiance was modern with upbeat music, and the restaurant features six TVs and a well-stocked bar. I highly recommend visiting this place!"

I start with the positive: everyone in my party (seven) liked the taste of their food and their "rice dishes" are large. Now for the not-so-good; although our waitress was very nice, she/they screwed up almost every dish. Two members of our party had to wait over ten minutes after the rest of us were served-and still problems. My dish, salmon came with a clump of dry-white rice-no salsa or anything with it. My plantanos were dryer than my napkin. And, I had one glass of (house) wine and it was $19.00!! My meal alone was $24.00. In many restaurants I could have gotten an entire bottle of wine for $19.00 But wait, there's more; EVERY SINGLE PARTY HAD A BIRTHDAY "CELEBRATION." In addition to singing, they serve a piece of cake with a flaming/smoking "Candle" and after a while the smoke was irritating many of our throats. And, forget having a conversation; the singer/music that night was so LOUD that we asked, three times, for them to lower it/her. They did however the singer raised the volume each time...she has no sense of how to "read a room." If anything, order food to go-Don't even think about eating in.

This is a Spanish Food Restaurant with Ecuadorian specialties.
The outside sign says it all...The Grand Amazon. There's definitely something for everyone's taste from meat, side dishes, salads to even hamburgers.
The plate sizes are ample & full of flavor. Whether you are stopping in for just drinks & appetizers or a full family dinner, you will leave satisfied for sure.
I liked the fried bananas aka plantains/platanos they were delicious and they have both styles of sweet bananas & green bananas...yummy!
There menu had many options to choose from & different variations as well to please everyone.
The staff was very accommodating and helpful when trying to decide on which dish to choose.
The atmosphere is a comfortable cross between spanish/island/outdoors brought inside flavor perfectly mimicking the Amazon.
They have lunch specials & there was talk about Bingo & kareoke nights.
I recommend the steak meal and grilled chicken Caesar was amazing.

I went to pick up my 2 sopas marineras .
We started eating the soups the seafood was bad and it tasted sour. I called to let them know, and ask them for the 70 dollars I spent . They said they would only give me half of the money back bc they didn’t have any other complaints about anyone else food. Like good for them but sucks for me. Never coming back here
