We used to go to this restaurant alot before and after the pandemic. We went today and the service was the worst I have ever experienced. We were practically telling the waiters to get us utensils and to take our order. The waiter was hurrying us up. I felt like she didn't want to attend us.. It was just uncomfortable place. The waiters before were always smiling and friendlier. I am sorry to say but my family and I will stop going to this place. No more family gatherings or recommending their food. Ridiculous and rude how the Peruvian owner disrespected my mom! We didn't want to leave tip because that's how bad the service was!!! I was shocked after years of going there with family. I don't recommend this place. If you want real Peruvian food go to LA Chata in a great place by Woodland Park. That's good service and real authentic Peruvian food!

It was disgusting!! DO NOT GO THERE! We ordered a chaufa rice and a ceviche and when we were eating a live cockroach came out of the plate, we immediately called the waitress to take the food and bring us the bill. Surprisingly they only dropped 5 dollars. In addition, the prices are too high for the quality of the food and the service. Don't waste your money and your time!

Delicious but made us run to the bathroom after .

Great food, never disappointed :)

When I first Went the Dinner Meal offered was offered at a Certain price and the Portions were worth the Charge. But this time when I went, I was charged quite a larger amount and the Portions were less then Impressive. Maybe it was the Time of Day or the day of the Week. I will have to give them another Try before making a Final Decision on whether or not it is Worth it to continue spending my Funds at a Place that is More concerned with speed & making Money then providing the Customers with a Pleasant experience that will compel them to return and spread the word about one of the Few places that Still Cook the Food with Love.

The Server was great in offering a suggestion from the menu. The food taste great.

Delicious Food. Great Service. Good Atmosphere. The Staff was very friendly. Did not have to wait long for our food. Will definitely tell my friends to come here.

This does not taste like peruvian food, lots of food but tasteless. I have tried three typical peruvian dishes, none of them to my satisfaction.
