I had to go back a second time for the delicious Peruvian tamales they were so flavorful and tasted much like home even though I’ve never been to Peru. I loved their house made green sauce with the empanadas and the chicken tamales! I’d highly recommend if you’re in the area visiting. The service is also so friendly and great the family that owns the business are kind!!
The food was good. Was it authentic Peruvian food? No, but it was still good (my family is Peruvian so we eat Peruvian food on the daily and are familiar with how the food should taste). We were expecting to see more authentic Peruvian food but there were foods on the menu like pupusas (which are from El Salvador) or rabo encendido (which is Cuban). All in all, I would describe this restaurant as a Latin fusion rather than a Peruvian restaurant.
Collegedale, TN. I lived in the Miami area for 11 years and have a friend from Peru who loves being Peruvian. She took me to a couple swanky Peruvian restaurants so maybe my standards are too high. More importantly, she cooked for me herself. I’m pretty sure she wouldn’t like the kale quinoa salad I had here. I couldn’t see any quinoa, portion was small, with tip I paid $15+ and the flavor was tart lime. My Peruvian friend is a great cook (papa a la huancaina are her specialty)...
