Had a fantastic time at Amaru. Went in wanting to order 3 things and had had friends show up to order others I also got to try. The bartender tried to sell me on the oxtail/ravioli but I held firm and got the chicken which was absolutely bomb I loved it glad I got that instead. The toast dish alone I'd come back for it was phenomenal and the vibes inside were great, love the hospitality. ❤️

Our sever was very nice but the steak was grossly overcooked and the other dishes we had were mid. For $200 we would expect better quality.

We had such a fantastic experience! The food was absolutely delicious. Jordi, our server, was amazing, so friendly and attentive. We loved the Holy Water drink and the Plumeria Margaritas,. The food was outstanding, especially the ceviche and the bacon-wrapped plantains. Everything was full of flavor and beautifully presented. Such an excellent spot! Highly recommend! Can't wait to go back.

Our server crushed it with each recommendation and on service. He comped us free drinks and a free dessert. The dessert he recommended was way better than the one we picked out. 10/10 experience great place.
Jaime
Great food and drinks. Attentive & quick service, but also paced well as to not feel rushed. Our server Paula was amazing and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend!
Blanca
Fantastic food and excellent service! We enjoyed the piononos, pulpo, shrimp chicharrón, yuca frita, Cuban oxtail, and pernil—each dish was perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. And don't leave without dessert—the guava cheesecake and pastel de elote were absolutely delicious. Highly recommend!
Romain
Amazing from beginning to end. Our waitress was very friendly and gave us some great recommendations. We tried most of the menu and everything was outstanding! Highly recommend

We were seated right away upon arrival, which was a great start. The space is cozy—almost too cozy, as it felt like we were dining with the tables next to us. That said, the energy of the restaurant was lively and welcoming. Our server, Paula, was fantastic—attentive, enthusiastic, and attentive, which elevated the experience. For food, we ordered the coconut rice (our favorite of the night!), the chorizo dates, the carrots, and the filet steak. Each dish had bold, creative flavors with an interesting balance of sweet and spicy. Personally, some of the contrasts were a little overwhelming for my palate, but I still appreciated the uniqueness of the menu. My only real disappointment was the filet, which came out more rare than medium rare, making it hard for me to enjoy fully. Overall, I'd say this spot is worth a visit for its originality, warm service, and standout dishes like the coconut rice. I'd definitely give it another try to explore more of the menu.
Authentic Latin American experience. Friendly and enthusiastic service. Good and unique selection of cocktails and food.

The waiter was amazing and great with recommendations. The food was fantastic. We had 4 people and we shared at least 8 plates and everything was so good. The bacon wraps were a great way to start the meal. The barramundi was fantastic and great for 4 people to share.

The food was delicious with dishes that were not familiar to us in many cases. The service was excellent, and the food was served surprisingly quickly.

Incredible food - we were both huge fans of the yuca frita, the mole y leon, and the lomo steak. So flavorful & perfectly cooked!
