We had roasted chicken, paella, and steaks. The steaks were perfectly done, the chicken had a nice spice rub, there was a lot of seafood in the paella, and all the servings were generous. The service was hospitable. This is one of our favorite restaurants.

Parking: The restaurant shares a lot with several other restaurants and businesses. It’s usually pretty full at dinner time, but we always find a spot.
This is my second experience with Peruvian food all I can say is I was blown away by the delicious, flavor forward, beautifully presented food. I had ordered takeout my first try fried fish with the garlic rice and some Creole onions 10 out of 10. 2 days later I had to go to the location took my grandfather, who is a very picky eater, and my brother. We were waited on by the personable and kind owner (folks), all I can say is she's amazing, that is a one woman Army right...
Food was amazing! Staff were warm and friendly and the service was quick. The restaurant is clean and the ambiance gives the comfort of family and authentic culture. The portions were large and literally everything was tasty. We can’t wait to come back with friends. This a gem and it’ll become a staple for our family.
