I went there last week, and I absolutely loved their service, and the wide variety of food they have is awesome. I recommend everyone go and eat here at least once.

I usually do not care much for seafood but the dish I can't pronounce, that looks like paella with a bowl of ceviche and fried yucca was great.

This place is amazing, I have tried multiple Peruvian restaurants and they are just “restaurant “ style but this one is like you are eating homemade Peruvian, very flavorful, if you looking for something fancy and waiters all over you then don't go here, service is decent but normal. Me encanta el bistec a lo pobre y la sopa !

Super recommended the place, the attention of the waitress Karolina was impeccable, very helpful and pleasant. Although she was very busy, she was always aware of giving us excellent service.
