Nestled in Newark, NJ, Mi Lindo Ecuador Restaurant & Fish Market shines as a beacon of authentic Ecuadorian flavors. Customers rave about their diverse menu, which boasts an impressive selection of sopas (soups) like the Asopado de Camaron, a comforting shrimp-based soupy rice. The ceviche offerings, especially the Ceviche Mixto, tantalize taste buds with a fresh, vibrant taste that captures the essence of coastal Ecuador. Patrons frequently commend the restaurant's commitment to traditional cuisine, best exemplified by the iconic Chaulafan—a rich fried rice dish packed with shrimp, chicken, and pork. One enthusiastic reviewer aptly noted, "the best Chaulafan I've ever had!" with special mention of their weekend-only sopa de bolla. The atmosphere is bustling yet friendly, with a staff that exudes warmth and joy, making every visit feel like a homecoming. Fast service is a significant highlight, particularly for their executive lunch, which offers an abundance of delicious choices at an excellent price. For those seeking bold, authentic Ecuadorian dishes, Mi Lindo Ecuador is truly a culinary gem in the tri-state area. Customers leave feeling satisfied and eager to return. As one happy diner put it, "I'll never get bored!" It's more than just a meal; it’s a celebration of Ecuadorian culture.

I was in the area and decided to check this spot out. Now, it’s our family’s go-to whenever we’re nearby. The waitresses are really friendly, and make atmosphere feels like home whenever we go. Everything is so fresh! I always get the carne asada or guatita, and my family loves trying different seafood dishes. It’s all so good, especially knowing they get everything from their fish market.
