Not great for vegetarians/vegans/pescatarians though Not the best salteñas in NOVA (shoutout to Luzmila's/Luzmary's)...read full review

This place came highly recommended by a Bolivian friend, and I was impressed by the five-star yelp rating, but the food was just ok. We had Silpancho de res, silpancho de pollo, and asado con chorrellana, it was very lackluster, unfortunately. I'm hoping it's an isolated experience, and maybe they're better on other days.
