This restaurant is a hidden gem on the in Kendall area, in the heart of the crazy busy 152 Ave...from outside looks like an average latin restaurant, but nothing more far away from reality...just when clients pass through the doors, the interior design take your breath and change your mind right away, given you a break from your stressfull days and put your mind and your palate in synchronization, to enjoy a peruvian culinary experience (5/5 stars)... However, with heavy heart, I have to say the culinary experience broke that expected synchronization. The first plate, a delicious ceviche with freshest seafood on a wholesale scale, enough portion to share (5/5 stars), however the rest of the plates, by far definitely not the best seafood or sauce as compared with other peruvian restaurants. Plates presented in a below average fashion with plain, bolds flavors, and very small portions (1/5 stars). All the beautiful expectation from the design and the first plate were crumble down by the following 3 plates lacking of originality and peruvian flavors. The main seafood platters among the other plates could not be easily associated with the international well named peruvian cuisine. Some plates were not big enough to share among 2. All plates, except the ceviche have a boring presentation. Bery disappointing food with an awesome interiordesign... my experience with this peruvian restaurant was a disaster, sometimes with all the mixed seasoning, the flavor of seafood was lost...even the waitress service was below average for my expectations with a relaxed atmosphere If you are in town or just passing by through the area, and you are recommended this restaurant, skipped as it is definitely very HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED...you will regret it!
Extremely disappointed for 4 reasons:The chicken was over-seasoned and they serve it with a green garlic sauce that has even more seasoning.I ended up paying almost $40 for 1 chicken, a salad and a coke.I requested two breasts, they couldn't accommodate.As I got toward the bone of the drumstick and thigh the chicken was raw.Avoid at all costs.
Lomo saltado all day! It was delicious. Lunch time portion was adequate. Everyone in my party had to take food home. Great space. Enough tables available for lunch. Parking may be an issue since it's a large plaza with many other businesses. I will definitely go again.
Very good food,very clean place,standar price
Our server, Alejandro, was one of the kindest, patient, and attentive servers I’ve ever had. He helped us select our meals. I ordered the shrimp risotto and it was one of the best things I’ve EVER eaten! My dad ordered a shrimp dish and was very happy with his meal as well. Since Alejandro did such a great job helping us with our meals, we had him select a dessert for us - which was heavenly! We’ll definitely be back!
Best Peruvian food place !! You could never go wrong ! I love that as soon as I come there’s no waiting line ! Staff is friendly!!
Satisfying find! I craved a taste of Peruvian cuisine. The Chaufa Mariscos platter was served as "personal", but with an excellent portion of seafood, it looked like a serving for two, maybe even three. So well worth it - actually I think I got more than my money's worth; definitely more than my share! Plus the flavors undoubtedly a bonus!Polite and professional sercice. You'd appreciate the interior's cleanliness. This first may be a last, since I was not from the area; only visiting. However, it was a foodie experience surely remembered.
Only go if you have a lot of time because nothing here is quick.Food is on the pricey side but their lunch specials leave nothing to be desired.One of my favorite spots for a Friday lunch, just be sure to ask for the check the moment your food arrives because they won't bring it until you ask.
This is the second visit with my family and I was not impressed with the service. The level of attention although not busy was extremely slow and the food was not to par. The few things I ordered didn't have a home taste like the first time I visite about a year ago. I would not recommend if such service is the new norm.
We were looking for Peruvian food and came for dinner. Food quality is great. The portions are huge that's why price might look a bit high. Be prepared to share or doggie bag. Our server was very nice, gracias Jessica!
