A fantastic little place with excellent decor, bright & vibrant colors, delicious food (most of which is made from scratch) and tasty coffee drinks! This is a morning to early afternoon location, so you have to get there in the 1st part of the day to experience it!!! Well worth it, and reasonably priced !!! Definitely would recommend the yucca fries, Churrasco sandwich, any of the sandwiches really, pancakes, and hazelnut latte!!! Did I mention the food was absolutely delicious ?!?!?! Yeah, it's that good!Parking: The parking is an off street parking lot shared by a number of businesses so the spots to accommodate customer parking isn't in mass abundance, but an acceptable amount for a small business like this.

We ordered the Peruano and Chicken Croissant sandwiches which were excellent. Peruano had a bit spice, good amount of meat and was quite satisfactory. Chicken croissant had excellent texture with celery and walnut. We will come back and bring our friends. A gem in the Drake neighborhood.

Not open during the posted hours... Weird.... They can't even make it to their own restaurant to open on time. It's too bad being that I live so close and spent alot of money here. I'll take my money elsewhere.

Fun casual spot with really killer whole chicken. I would recommend the dark over the white - the dark meat was really moist, while the white was flavorful, but dry. Best fried yucca I’ve ever had. We’ll be back!

The food was delicious and came our super fast! The fries and homemade Mayo are definitely a must!
Delicious food! They also upgraded the decor and vibe of this place from the previous tenant.

It was our first visit, but we'll be back! We got a whole roast chicken, and it was delicious. It was flavorful and juicy, and all of the sauces that accompanied it were excellent. We had a house salad and fries as a side, and they were both very good too. The sauces are also perfect for dipping your fries. Although full, we grabbed a couple desserts to go - a lemon cheesecake, and a cinnamon/caramel custard. Both were wonderful, but the caramel one was fantastic...familiar flavors, but elevated by the combination. Next time I'd really like to try some of their sandwiches, but it will be difficult to order anything other than the chicken again!

Front counter person didn't know how any of the menu was prepared. Was very confused with the house salad. The chicken was good but I could tell it had been reheated and wasn't fresh out of the oven. The place is cool but I don't think the vision is fully there.

We went to Panka Peruvian Chicken yesterday. The food was excellent! I had the Traditional Peruano which was excellent. The Fried Yuca is excellent and I might make a meal of just that next time!
