Amaru offers great food, particularly praised for its ceviche del día and octopus. The restaurant has limited seating, so it is recommended to reserve in advance. While it can be noisy during dinner, the atmosphere is a whole vibe, adding to the dining experience. The service is exceptional, with staff like Joe, known for his incredible mixology, and other servers making visits memorable. The food is outstanding, with everything ordered being delicious and flavorful. The menu features a variety of dishes, including ceviche del día, empanadas, ribs, Solterito, Andean carrots, pernil, lomo, and coconut fried rice. Dishes such as Shrimp Chicharrón, Branzino, and Requeson have also received high praise. Desserts, particularly the corn cake, are recommended as well. Amaru also offers a selection of cocktails, with recommendations for the pina colada and sweet plantains. Visitors are encouraged to pay them a visit, as they will not regret it.
