The sandwiches are incredibly boring. For example I got a sandwich that looked very good on the menu...with the picture that was shown and it turned out to be white toast with barely anything in it with some chicken salad and some melted cheese on top. Nothing like what I expected. The Pisco sours are very expensive 19 soles instead of the less-expensive 10 or 12 in other places that seems to be average. In addition the drinks are extremely small. If you want a plain sandwich that tastes like you're in a coffee shop in the United States and go ahead but expect to pay more than you would for a nice hot plate somewhere else.

I ordered the Inca grill platter to share but the meat pieces were a bit dry-overcooked. the cream cheesy corn was delicious and the sausages and the rest. we had a good evening meal after our Colca Canyon tour.

I had a trout with some vegetables and potatoes; Sara had beef with fries, rice, onions and peppers. It was really tasty and the service was great. The price was pretty steap too!
