Love the food. I'm all sucker for Aji de Gallina and it was amazing. We were a group of 10. Ordered the Jalea, anticichos, seco combinado, tacu tacu, lomo, chaufa, tallarin verde, all delicious!! Service was great tonight. Very attentive and good live music. Thank you!!

Was looking for a good Peruvian place to eat at around Passaic and Clifton this popped up with good reviews so we gave it a try. The food was most definitely bomb and a big portion. I went with 3 people my plate did end up coming like 5 mins after everyone but it wasn’t big deal tbh I see a lot of people complaining about that. Atmosphere was good if you like quietness. Waiters were kind yea a little serious but not everyone is cheerful & jolly they still were very polite...

I got the beef lomo and a seafood and rice dish. I love Peruvian food and every time I am in Jersey I make sure I pick up some yummies...but I wasn't impressed with the dishes I got here. The place looks great, and the service was great as well, but I've had better Peruvian food in the area.
