Customer service terrible I had to scream a couple times to the waitress cause he was so busy with his phone plus I ask for my check many times and a to go container and even with no people in the restaurant he was so focus in his cellphone that he didn't realize I still waiting for him. I will never came back it makes me wait so long .food was ok I don't like jasmine rice so for me it wasn't white rice and also rice looks old or maybe sitting there for a while....

Vibe is amazing, price is amazing, service is amazing. The food is to die for.

Not where I would bring a picky eater, but if you are willing to try something different, this is a great place to go.

Dinning room is clean, no wobbly tables and the cutlery is pristine.

Homemade hot sauce is actually hot. And delicious.

You can really tell that everybody on the staff tries really hard to make this place work...

I ordered through Uber Eats so I don't know what the environment is like physically, however, the food was good and there was a lot of it, I would like to be able to go to the restaurant to try it again and other dishes. Thank you very much for bringing a piece of our Peru here ?.
