Ceviche at its point!!My ceviche was on point, I loved how spicy it was, but the lemon was sour, which took away some of the flavor.The mixed rice comes compact but the steak was super dry.The fried fish was delicious with all its accompaniments.Chicha morada was fresh and delicious.Come and try!Parking: Parking is a bit tedious to find.
