Shrimp toast
Phet P.

Charming spot in Blaine; everything we tried was tasty (though the sauce could use more flavor). The branzino lettuce wraps were my favorite. The service was excellent and attentive, and the ambiance was pleasant with music at a suitable volume for conversation.

Goi flavorful with the pork belly, sesame chips were fresh out the fryer

Parking: the lot is small and shared with other businesses. It is also close to the Trader Joe's!…read moreThere is limited street parking nearby but between the small lot at the business and the Trader Joe's lot, you can always find a spot although you may have to wait a minute for one! Service: The service is friendly! When you arrive at the doors, there's a sign to knock but the employees are pretty good at spotting people so they will open the door to welcome you in and give you menus. You go to the register to order whenever you're ready. They do have some specials which are written on a chalkboard and the employees are able to tell you about the specials as well. Atmosphere: the restaurant was vibrant with colorful walls, and flowers on the table! It is a sit-down restaurant but fairly casual! It was well lit, and good for gathering with friends and family or coworkers! They also do to-go orders if you're not looking to dine-in! Food/drink: they have plenty of gluten free options and a couple vegetarian options. They are able to modify some of the vegetarian options to be vegan if needed. I ordered the vegetariano saltado, which was well balanced with some salty and tangy notes. It is listed as spicy on the menu but I found it to be quite mild. This was my first time having mote in a dish, which are boiled, peeled, corn kernels. They have a mild nuttiness, and a soft chewable texture which was very nice! Overall I enjoyed this dish and would order it again! The naranjilla juice was also very good! It had a tropical flavor, almost like a pineapple with orange juice flavor. I enjoyed the food overall, and thought the portions were good. Each person in my party of 3 had some leftovers remaining!! I would recommend Chimborazo to anyone interested in trying Ecuadorian food, and I will be back!

Get the soup!!! The perfect way to beat the cold and snow outside…read more Great fast service. Eat then ... go to Trader Joe's! You'll save money! Food is great, healthy and reasonable.

Went back for a New Year's Eve several course set menu and it was delicious!! We were drawn to come…read morein for the live jazz music as well and thought it would be a fun date to end 2022! Salmon mousse appetizer was refreshing. The winter vegetable salad was surprisingly large and filling with sweet potato, beet and tangy cheese. Possibly my favorite thing was the warm cocktail in between the salad and main course! They described it as a Latin version of mulled wine- but light and citrusy. Loved it. The ribeye was of course amazing- cooked to perfection at medium rare. And the au gratin potatoes did their job as comfort food. The flourless chocolate cake and crème brûlée were also fantastic and rich. Only not so great part was that my husband could not have several of the items on the set menu due to his dairy and gluten allergies. They tried to accommodate him, but some of the dishes were already prepared with dairy and there were no alternative options. So we likely won't do a set menu night again (although I got two desserts out of the deal!). But I am continually impressed by this place and will be back!

Just a great neighborhood gem of a restaurant. Not everything on the menu hits it out of the…read moreballpark, but who cares. Fast, friendly and an interesting menu that has the basics a kid will enjoy and something that pushes the envelope for the grownups, plus a dog friendly patio.

I really loved this place: bright and open, it's incredibly inviting. The staff was warm and…read morewelcoming (thanks Sofia!) and helped us navigate the menu. We especially enjoyed how conversation-friendly it was here. If you're looking to catch up with a friend, this is a great option! As for the menu, you'll find both Mexican and Ecuadorian options. Starting with the beverage offerings, you'll see many flavors of Jarritos, agua frescoes, and some Ecuadorian sodas. I tried the Tropical, which was delicious. Pink and fruity, it was not too sweet and had a little dose of je ne sais quoi. I really liked it! I saw empanadas on the menu, and while I have had them before, never have I ever seen them served with sugar. Of course we ordered them. They were awesome. Exactly the right balance of crisp and tender, the pastry was a delight. (Definitely sprinkle a little sugar on it.) The salty cheese provided a satisfying little cheese pull and went beautifully with the sugar, too. They also go great with the hot sauce, which is a must-have. It's acidic and bright from the vinegar and has a satisfying heat that tickles the tongue and goes great on everything. The plato vegetariano was the epitome of simple and satisfying: potatoes in a delicious and herby sauce; a fresh salad of lettuce, onion, and tomato; a fried slice of plantain; a mound of perfectly-cooked rice; and a cup of beans. It was comforting without being heavy. The dessert menu featured familiar favorites and one that was completely new to me: higos con queso. While I went with the flan, I did get to sneak a bite of this unusual and intriguing dessert: the figs are poached but retain their firmness and are served with a firm and salty cheese. The figs and cheese come with the poaching liquid, which is not sweet but also not quite savory--it's got quite a depth of flavor and makes for a truly unique dish. I recommend it if you prefer to end your meal with something that isn't super sweet. (If, on the other hand, you prefer a more traditional dessert, the flan here is lovely: a bit sturdier than some you may have had, it's got the right blend of sweet and caramelized--it was just right!) Street parking is available nearby, but if you come later in the evening, it will probably park up. This is a great choice for families and friends!

The first time we went was around 6:15pm on a Sunday evening. It was not crowded at all. There is a…read moresmall shared parking lot a few stores down the block, and seems to be fairly handicapped accessible. Inside there is a small bar, and 2 TVs that had soccer on with the sound turned off. There was some music playing but it was not too loud, very easy to hear conversation. The restaurant is very clean and family owned. Our server was very friendly, as was every other employee. We ordered Empanadas De Carne for an appetizer. They came out quickly, as did the rest of our food. They were good and came with a habanero sauce which was delicious. I am a wimp when it comes to spice, but I kept putting little dabs of it on my food because it tasted so good. My partner used it on everything and even scraped the bowl out with his chips. My partner ordered a Burrito with roast pork. When it came it was very big, plenty of value for the money, and the flavor was AMAZING. The pork was juicy and so very flavourful. It was delicious. He also ordered a horchata. I am not usually a fan of horchata, but he is. I tasted the horchata and I loved it. It was very creamy and had plenty of cinnamon. I ordered the sopes barbacoa. Again, lots of food for the money. I have never had sopes before, but they were so good. The barbacoa was juicy and again, so very flavourful. We will definitely be back, many times I am sure.
