My first time there yesterday. I did let the waitress know we were there celebrating a special day, I thought she would due something special for the person, no acknowledged towards him. I was very disappointed. The food was not what it was hype to be. The place is beautiful. But everything else is just simple and to the point. Never again!

Absolutely delicious and stunning restaurant! Some of the best drinks I’ve had so far and I love that they all give you a taste of Peru with authentic and unique Peruvian fruits and flavors. I had the ceviche de pescado, chaufa de mariscos and arroz con mariscos. Super fresh and flavorful. The drinks and food complemented well and the dessert was the cherry on the cake! Definitely recommend as a must try if you’re in the area. Worth your time and money.

I live in Glendale, very close to the place and its image caught my attention and I decided to enter.My wife and I served a Chicken Soup each, I expected more from a Peruvian food, which by the way is not cheap.But it was really very salty and after 3 hours I'm still belching with an unpleasant smell that makes me think that there is spoiled food.The attention was cordial even though the place was narrow and noisy.My bill was excessively expensive for the poor quality of food. I'm not going back to that place.

The restaurant is quaint with about 10-15 tables. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the dishes and able to make some recommendations. I had dinner on a weekday and it was not packed and there was no seating time limit, which is amazing because I hate to feel rushed when eating and enjoying the experience. Happy hour was available, the mango mojito was good. Dinner was a nice variety of seafood, I had the garlic shrimp with fried yuca and sweet plantains, it was so flavorful, cooked perfectly, and had a nice sauce to dip the yuca in! It was so good I finished it all! Ended the evening with churros, which were nice just wish they were larger sized. Overall, good food, with options for meat lovers, seafood lovers, and vegetarians!Parking: You can find parking on the residential side streets or you can do metered parking on Metropolitan Ave

I have always gone to this restaurant when I want to eat Peruvian either for lunch or breakfast on the weekends, but unfortunately I have seen lately that the service has dropped considerably. Today I decided to order a delivery from this Peruvian place and my order arrived incomplete. When I call the restaurant, the waiter Andrés, after confirming with the person who packed my order, answers me very loosely that my order was indeed incomplete. but he has no way of sending me what is missing from my order. The total disinterest that this waiter showed is a clear example of what you will find in this restaurant, very unfortunate since their food is good. But if you want good food and friendly service this is not the place. Being a Peruvian restaurant with not very comfortable prices, one would expect a little more customer service for its diners.

Adorable, chic, and exotically decorated restaurant. Don't be fooled by the small storefront, the inside is spacious and very well-lit. Love love love the vibe. The service was great every time: attentive and caring. And let's not forget about the food! FYI, I only went here for lunch, so I can't comment on the night dining experience. However, the times I did go here, the Peruvian lunch was amazing. Fell in love with their sauces, fried rice, lomo saltado lunch, and appetizers. Highly recommend to drop by for a nice lunch outing.

Small restaurant, stressed eviroment, no privacy, waitres service ok. However, the owners came to me with a so rude attitude just for asking for a change of table cause the door was open and it was really cold. I never come back to this place. Food wasn't good Lomo salteado so salty so greasy and the meat was over cooked. I heard about the owners attitude before, today I experienced a bad customer service. Make a favor to yourself and do not go there.

Friendly service, delicious food. I've ordered takeout and delivery from them. Even the ceviche, which you wouldn't think would travel well, arrived looking and tasting great. This place is a gem.
