Ecuadorian Cuisine on Queens Soccer Match Days
Soccer match days bring national team fans into this East Elmhurst room for a livelier Queens meal.
🥘 A Table of Ecuadorian Classics
East Elmhurst does not need much preamble when Ecuadorian staples are on the table. Barzola brings slow roasted meats, ceviches, plantains, and traditional encebollado into one neighborhood room, with bolón also in the mix. The range gives the meal a few different directions, from a bowl of soup to savory plates with plantains at center.
There is an outdoor dining patio, and the staff add a welcoming, family feel. The biggest shift in the plan comes on soccer match days, when the room fills with fans celebrating the national team, a detail that changes the timing question. A quieter meal and a seat among the match crowd are two different plans.
Doors open at 8 AM daily, with closing at 10 PM Monday through Thursday and Sunday, and later on Friday and Saturday. Check the day before heading out, then choose between Ecuadorian comfort dishes and the crowd around the game.
