I am Peruvian and this restaurant has a very bad Peruvian seasoning. I ate the worst lomo saltado I've ever eaten in my life, seasoned in such a strange and DIFFERENT way. So if you expect to eat Peruvian, this is definitely the place you SHOULD NOT go.It was disappointing. In the same way, aji de gallina, chicha morada, all not very tasty :

Phenomenal meal with excellent service and a really cool backstory behind the restaurant. Could not rate the food higher, 10 out of 10 on deliciousness and service. Our server Patrick was fantastic and the family that owns the restaurant is so kind. We aredefinitely going to be recommending this all of our friends!

I absolutely love this restaurant. The food is amazing. The staff is great. Cool ambience. You have to go here. If you’re a foodie, you’ll appreciate the effort put into their dishes. The ceviche is hands down some of the best I’ve ever had,empanadas are fresh and ridiculously good. I had the flank steak entree on a bed of chard and sweet potatoes. Couldn’t behappier. Make a reservation, the secret is out.
