Great service and delicious food everytime I've ordered. Everything is seasoned and cooked perfectly and there are a variety of dishes. Portion sizes are large and feels like you get your moneys worth. Even if you are not familiar with Peruvian food try this place out and support local small business!

We are always ordering out from Nankar. Probably 2-3x a month. The whole family loves it which is great since we 3 small kids that can be picky sometimes. Really great food!

I went to eat with my family and we loved the food, especially the rotisserie chicken. The atmosphere was relaxed and clean, and the service was excellent. They have a DJ and karaoke on Fridays and Saturdays, and we enjoyed going there to dance to good music with friends and family. I highly recommend it.

This Peruvian restaurant is very Good! The food is delicious, the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The pollo a la brasa, lomo saltado, and chaufa were all outstanding, recently try Leche de trigre and I love it. full of flavor and perfectly cooked. I highly recommend this place!

Not good chicken. The ai generated pictures show a lot of people enjoying eating here. When I walked in there was not a single person. I stood around for a minute questioning if I should leave when an employee appeared from the kitchen. Chicken needs to be cooked more needs more seasoning. Yucca is mush.

Literally my favorite restaurant in the area. Ribs? Fantastic. Charcoal chicken? I get a whole chicken and eat it in one sitting. The beef noodle dish with the peppers and tomatoes? I'd fight my own grandmother for the last bite.

I want to support small businesses as much as possible, I know that this shopping center does not have a great history of businesses lasting long here.

I came in and ordered the half chicken with 2 sides, I asked for white rice, and yuca, however I asked if i can have beans over the white rice (most peruvian restaurants will pour beans over the rice and count that as one side) the waitress said that would count as three sides: beans, rice, and yuca. I said that I will have the beans and rice instead of the yuca.

When my food arrived, they gave me yuca and white rice, making a mistake on my order I asked the waitress and she right away brought the beans. When it came time to pay, the waitress had charged me for three sides. That sucked.

For the half chicken, three sides, and a coke was $26, more than I would pay at any other peruvian restaurant.

Anyways I hope this place does well to last!

Great Peruvian food. Portions are large so you should have enough for lunch the next day.

We arrived an hour before closing, and right away we were told the menu was limited. The service was friendly, but unfortunately, the food was very disappointing.

The white rice was completely hard—impossible to eat. The tamales were dry and tough, and the chicken inside was extremely dry and hard to chew. They also had raisins and nuts, which is very unusual for a Peruvian tamal. We were also surprised they didn’t have arroz chaufa, which is a staple in Peruvian cuisine.

We waited nearly 45 minutes for the food. We ordered one main dish and two sides (white rice and plantains) and paid almost $60, since the tamales and ribs (which were also dry) didn’t include any sides.

In summary: friendly service, but the food was a big letdown. We wouldn’t return or recommend it.

It was quite good. I had standard pollo ala brasa. My boyfriend had lomo saltado and we started with wings. The wings were some of the best I've had and perfectly fried. My plantains were excellent. I only knocked off a star because both our dishes were extremely salty but tasted more like MSG saltiness. Plus they advertise they automatically use nondairy alternatives which I don't like to consume
