Restaurante Cipriana

I was there after I saw something on TV about the owner. The ambience is typical of a middle class stay in Peru, but was clean including toilets. They also seem to run a coffee shop with the same name next door. I was very happy with the food, we had done the ribs and pork in caja china. At first I thought the rib part was a bit small, I am from Texas and used to get ribs through the shelf or half frame and this time I received 2 ribs, but they were large, fleshy, a little more fat than I like, but very tasty. They were served with a salad and potatoes. My companion had pork made in a grill called caja china and was very crispy and well made. The Parrillero (grill cook) was wonderful. Now the unfortunate part, as part of my research I found her Facebook page. There were many pictures that were very appetizing. I had some of them in my head when we went and found none of them on the menu, and worse the waiters seemed to know nothing about them. If the articles are available seasonal or no longer, they should say so on their side. That was the only thing that kept me from giving them an outstanding one.

On November 1st. I went to this restaurant with my family because I had seen a report on TV twice. First, the dinning room is badly illuminated and you will feel the tired smell. We had to go to the second floor....More shiny, but nothing decorates the place. We waited about 20 minutes until a waitress gave us the menu....No of the prices that appeared on the table of the entrance were on the menu that she gave us....We had to wait 20 minutes until she took the order.....Then hour later she appeared, but the order was wrong when my husband asked her to change it, she only said that the cooktop would have added the 2 other sauces. I ordered Fetuccini a la Huancaína con Lomo (Fetuccini with cheese and pepper with lung) The taste was good, but some noodles were raw and the part was very small. When my son wanted to go to the bathroom, my husband took him to the men's bathroom, but there was 't water and the place was completely dirty, so I took him to the lady's bathroom with me. There was water, but it was really bad.... I don't know how many times they clean the bathroom, but the dirty papers were over the garbage bin and were on the floor.... disgusting. Bad service, unfortunate place and high prices for mediocre food. I'll never come back and NOT come back to go there.

On November 1st. I went to this restaurant with my family, because I had seen twice a report about it on tv.First of all, the dinning room is poorly lit and you will feel the musty smell. We had to go to the second floor....More shiny but nothing decorated the place.We waited about 20 minutes until a waitress gave us the menu....No one of the prices that appeared on the blackboard of the entrance were on the menu that she gave us....We had to wait 20 more minutes until she took the order.....Half hour later she appeared, but the order was wrong, when my husband ask her to change it, she only said that the cooker was going to add the 2 other sauces, in fact they should have changed the dish , because my husband ordered "Trilogía de Tiraditos" (A dish prepared with 3 different types of flavor) but they didn't, they only added the 2 other sauces and of course the fish couldn't catch the taste.My son asked "Arroz con pato" (Duck with rice) the plate was enough but it was only rice without any little vegetable and the duck was more bone and skin than meat.I ordered "Fetuccini a la Huancaína con Lomo" (Fetuccini with a sauce of cheese and pepper with loin) The flavor was good but some noodles were raw and the portion was very small.When my son wanted to go to the bathroom my husband took him to the men's bathroom but there wasn't water and the place was totally dirty, so i took him to the lady's bathroom with me ....there were water but it was really nasty....I don't know how frequently they clean the bathrooms but the dirty papers were over top the trash basket and were on the floor....disgusting.Bad service, deplorable place and high prices for mediocre food.I will never return and recomend you NOT to go there.

I went there after seeing a bit on the TV about the owner. The ambiance is typical for a middle class restarant in Peru but was clean including the restrooms. They seem to also operate a coffee shop by the same name next door. I was quite happy with the food, we had the ribs and pork done in caja china. At first I thought the rib portion was a bit small, I am from Texas and used to getting ribs by the rack or half rack and this time I received 2 ribs but they were large, meaty, a little more fat than I like but very tasty. They were served with a salad and potatoes. My companion had pork that was done in a barbecue called caja china and was very crispy and well done. The Parrillero (grill cook) was marvelous. Now the unhappy part, as part of my research I found their Facebook page. There were lots of pictures that were very appetizing. I had a couple of them in my mind when we went and found none of them on the menu and worse the waiters didn't seem to know any thing about them. If the items are seasonal or no longer available they should say this in their page. This was the only thing that kept me from giving them an Excellent.
