We stopped in for a bite at lunch time. Tablecloth needed to be laundered as there were some crusty spots. The restaurant appeared clean other than the Tablecloth.

The food was spectacular. We had a chicken and a seafood dish that we shared and walked out stuffed and smiling. We also ordered the rotisserie chicken and chaufa to go for dinner. It was that good!

Tonight was the first night my family and I ever had Peruvian food and we were not disappointed. Since we were new to Peruvian cuisine, we tried to order as much as possible so that we could all taste test everyone else’s. The flavors were out of this world and our server – I believe his name was Julian – was so kind and patient with us. We had a million questions about ingredients and what certain things were and he was more than happy to answer all of our silly questions. I highly recommend it.

Not the best peruvian food, but still decent. The staff accommodated us pretty late at night and were kind, so im giving an extra star for that.

Definitely could be some improvements to the food: the arroz chaufa had seafood that was a bit overcooked and tough. The lomo saltado could have used a richer and more flavorful sauce for more flavor, and the fries were a bit soggy even before the sauce was on them. However, it still had some good flavor and since I always love lomo saltado, I enjoyed eating this.

The fried rice overall was good, though a bit salty as the main flavor.

One of the best chickens I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The pollo combos are great. Super flavorful and fall off the bone! Definitely a very underrated spot. The service was good too.

Ordered the Causa de Pollo , It was really good. But missing the egg.

We went today for our first time with a group of friends and it was 10/10! Fresh food with great flavor, excellent service & a great vibe! Our first time eating Peruvian food and we WILL be back 😋

Food was terrible. The lomo saltado had no flavor and was extremely dry. The rice with seafood had no flavor whatsoever

First time here, not sure if they were short staffed or if this is the usual but we had a bad experience despite the food being good.

Waiter was nice but a little clueless. Didn’t take a drink order and neglected to inform us the kitchen only had one chef and food wouldn’t be out for 45m to an hour.

At the 45m mark 3 out of 4 of us received our meals. One of them was the beef version instead of the chicken. 5 minutes later our 4th meal showed up.

We ordered a side which never made it to the table and upon asking were informed they had run out.

With that said the food was really good but I don’t think I will come back until the time to table for the meals improves.

At a minimum communicate with your guests and let them decide if they can wait that long for their meals before being seated.

Went the first time this past weekend and had the best time! They have a great menu with so many Peruvian dishes and the serving left me lunch for the next two days. Lastly my new favorite drink jugo de papaya.

Worst Peruvian restaurant I’ve ever been to in my life. Every worker was unprofessional. We ordered takeout and we arrived only to discover they forgot to put the order in. Once we finally got the food, it looked off. The chicken was not prepared well, the fries were basically boiled potatoes, the sauces all tasted off (pretty sure they use just regular mayo as opposed to the proper Peruvian mayo w lime), and the prices were exorbitant for such a hole in the wall establishment. I hope every customer they’ve ever had has a chance to taste true Peruvian food elsewhere.

Terrible organizacion de parte del staff. Falta de profesionalismo. Y la comida deja mucho Que desear. Eviten este lugar y este Pueblo

Food was delicious but I ordered and paid online - when we went to pick it up they said the food we ordered was not available then made us wait an hour for the food they did have - won’t be going back unfortunately
