If you are looking for true Peruvian food this isn’t your place. The food was ok at best but the amount of MSG in it gave our entire family headaches for the rest of the day. Maybe the Mexican side of the menu is better. Service was good.

We loved the fish ceviche and the lomo saltado the best, but all the food was very good. Our server (young lady with blond hair) was super nice, made us feel welcome since we first came in, we sat outside since we had our precious dog with us, she kept checking in with us to make sure everything was good all the time. Great customer service, food quality and price. Will be definitely coming back when we are back in Pacifica.

Went after strolling the FogFest, so it was super busy. Service was slow, but it was understandable. The food was good. Didn't have anything fancy; shared a cheese quesadilla and had a shrimp taco (that was super yum!). Also had a glass of Sangria which I enjoyed. I would definitely go back again when it's not so busy! But happy to see the local businesses doing so well from the FogFest, which was sunny by the way! ??

Food was excellent but plating and service were terrible. There is no host stand and despite standing directly in front of the cash register and asking for a table, we were ignored, to the point that they actually began to seat another table ahead of us. It’s a small restaurant, we were 5 people, the waitstaff literally had to squeeze in between us, yet the host BLAMED US for not making our presence known. Not sure what exactly he was expecting, other than telling us our name was supposed to magically appear on the slip of paper in his shirt pocket, without anyone talking to us.We were seated right in front of the bathroom. We had to ask twice for water, which took 10 minutes to arrive and was never refilled.Yucca fries were good but came out cold.Ceviche, chicharrones pescados, chicken quesadillas, all excellent. Empanadas were just okay.

Not sure about the Peruvian food, but the burritos are very bland. The wet burrito is very lack luster. Hardly any sauce. The cheese is not Mexican cheese. And the carnitas are as dry as they come. It’s a very average burrito
