Unfortunately they gave me a dry chicken, it seemed like it was heated as well as the potatoes. They told me to pick up in 20 minutes and when I went almost on time it wasn't ready.

Horrible place to have dinner. Bought some desserts and it had mold on it. Look at the picture and zoom in you’ll see blue mold on the cake. Department of health should close this place down! Confronted the owner and he said he would make it right on my next visit . Went today to see how that goes. He tried to convince me he was giving me a discount and instead gave me half the food! Very disappointing! Man does not value his customers. Added pictures of a salad that’s not even edible doesn’t even smell good!

It seems like they changed the cook, they no longer prepare the chaufa like before, now it looks dirty and eggless. The good thing is that macaroni for the bad mood was previously in a box
Do Not waste your money. I am unsure of they changed owners because we have always gone here but we will never go again. We ordered a Lomo and it had 8 strips of steak the rest was potatoes and rice. We also ordered Papa Huanquaina and it literally had 1/2 egg with a bunch of potatoes. Never will eat or order from here again. Save your money and go to one of the other restaurants in the block. Shame how restaurants like these do not run a business with integrity.

Service was fine lady at the front counter friendly good came out quickly packed up with utensils and napkins and sauce no problem. But when I opened the trays horrible! The rice was super hard not even cooked! I ordered white rice with half a rotisserie chicken and chaufa mixed(chicken and beef) the only good thing was the rotisserie chicken the white rice was hard not cooked through and the chaufa was also hard not cooked through! This place has fell off I use to eat here once every 2 weeks and it was delicious now I wouldn’t bother to waste your money here for undercooked food. Btw it was $35 for those 2 dishes. Not worth it.

I was going somewhere else but a friend of mine suggested this one… He’s going to have to reimburse me. I ordered chicken and beef lomo saltado. The chicken and the beef was unseasoned… Zero flavor. And cheap cuts of beef. It was nasty. No flavor in anything. 1 tomato. Just very disappointing. I’ve had it in other spots in Patterson and it was amazing. It was just nasty. And on the phone the guy said $18.00 but when I got there the woman said $22.00!!! And I asked for them to make it spicy… They said they would, and didn’t. What a waste. And I had my lips fixed!!!
I didn't like the food very much
