Literally everything we tried was fantastic. Definitely try the Chicha morada to drink. Our favorite apps were the papa rellena and the chicharon con yucca, sooo good! Favorite mains where the chuafa con pollo, mixed fajitas, and carmarones. Look forward to going back and trying out more!

Tonight was our last night here. Service was poor and mediocre. We’ve been here plenty times before, never had an issue before. Until tonight. Not only was service very dry, not welcoming, but the food. What in the world happened to the chef? Food was tasteless and simple. Definitely did not have the Peruvian taste to it. The leche de tigre was sour! Not spicy and full of flavor the way it should be. Our Arroz con mariscos and Chaufa con mariscos was basic, simple, and bland. Very disappointing. The green and yellow sauce were just as bad. To top it off i ordered some pupusas to go, pfft i thought that would at least be better. Boy was i wrong. 21.00 for 6 pupusas only to look like the picture!!!! What kind is presentation is that!? Over all very disappointed and won’t be coming back.

Dined in with family. Ordered yuca and chicharrones to share; two people went classic with lomo saltado, and my wife and I tried different seafood dishes. Everything was delicious, and the portion sizes are massive. Seriously, you end up paying for double portions, so make sure there is space in your fridge for a meal the next day. The menu has so many incredible sounding dishes that I can’t wait to try - I’ll definitely be back!

Got this to-go with friends. Excellent, juicy chicken. It's my first Peruvian chicken experience, so I can't comment to its authenticity. However, the chicken itself was prepared well, and I enjoyed the seasoning. Fries were good. Sauces were excellent.

This restaurant used to be a place when you find a tasty food, decent side of dishes for a fair price. Not any more!! The owner raised the prices considerably higher, reduced the portion of the food and the worse part was that the food didn’t have the flavors that makes Peruvian food so special, it was blended. My family was very disappointed because were coming to this place for the last 15 years. Maybe they change ownership!

Drove past this restaurant. I turned around walked in found it quaint, small and very at home feeling. As I looked at the menu at the counter for carry out a waitress pass by me completely cordial and polite. It was taking a customer there's dinner on the tray, oh my God the setting and the way the food looked and smelled was awesome. I decided that ceviche was what I wanted the young lady at the counter spoke both Spanish and English fluently. My order came out within 10 minutes bag nice I got home and opened it and noticed that things were separated nicely. The ceviche was wonderful more than enough for one person. I will go again and take the time to eat in. My highly recommend this restaurant for carry out, they seem to have a wide variety of items. The only reason I'm giving this a four is because one they're a star is small and two parking was a little trying but it did have spaces for handicapped and outside dining as well.

My man and I been coming for years and today it was the worst, we order 2 salchipapas and the hot dog was over fried and the famous yellow salsa it was watery and they brought us one salchipas due to their were out of hotdogs and we order papa rellena the meat inside was bad and the salsa criolla had big onions no it was season it at all no salt no lime juice no flavor and no more canchitas as courtesy of the house ?

It used to be better, still it has good peruvian chicken

Great experience will recommend it. The food is excellent A+

Oh my gosh this place has the best ceviche I have ever eaten in my life, I could literally drink the Tigre con leche an by itself!! This place is a Hidden Gem and is so underrated oh, but you have to go here you won't be disappointed
