“This is truly a hidden gem in downtown Joliet. Food was absolutely delicious. We tried the pollo anticuchero, the lomo saltado and the papa a la huancaina and it was all very tasty. I had the parchita for a drink and it was also very good. We will definitely be back.“

“Samantha was absolutely phenomenal, extremely personable, not overwhelming & truly a peach! Our family of 5 celebrated my parents anniversary & she exceeded all expectations.

“Convenient as it is located inside the hotel. Food was fair, nothing special and was a bit pricey due to being in the hotel as expected. Sat at the bar after dinner and the bar service was excellent. Jen was on duty and was friendly, professional and courteous. A big plus is the huge fire pit right outside the back door! It's wonderful to sit out there and enjoy a livation in a comfy chair.“
