Read the reviews and the Lomo saltado seemed like their most popular dish. I figured I would make a trip over to try this out.Eating out nowadays seems to average around 15 to 20 dollars for one. I feel like this is outrageous but it has become the norm. So the thing that sets different places apart is the quality and portion. That being said, I feel like the quality could have been better. Everything was fresh, no doubt, but for me, it was just very plain and basic. I didn't see what made it Peruvian. I'm not really familiar with Peruvian cuisine which is why I was curious and wanted to try but it was just rough cut potatoes with onions and peppers and meat (which was actually decent quality) and a dollup of rice. I was hoping for a new combination of spices or a sauce that made me say to myself, "oh THAT'S Peruvian. " But, sadly, I didn't. Unless it was the rough cut potatoes but this really wasn't something that seemed important to the dish.It was basic but admiringly it was wholesome and healthy. I was just hoping for something new.They did include a side sauce but I think it was just cilantro and oil blended.If it was more affordable, I might find this place appealing but if I'm paying 20 bucks for a dish, I want my stomach screaming to my brain that it's happy.

Awesome place!!! Great food and a wonderful experience! Their rolled taquitos are amazing!

Oh wow!! This tucked away gem has the best California burrito in the city!! Fresh ingredients and bold flavor. I have not had the opportunity to try some Peruvian food but imagine it will be similar to their Mexican. Highly recommend and encourage you try it at least once. It's like once a week spot for my household!!

Very small portions for the price , la carne dura y seca .

Best homemade food. Owners are so friendly and you are made to feel at home.
