English is spoken and included in the menu. The prices were good. What is not to like?

We started with 2 soups: the chicken with rice soup, and the quinoa vegetable soup. Both were great! We then shared 2 main dishes: the lamb chops, and the green Thai curry. Both of those dishes were also flavorful and delicious. The restaurant has a wide range of vegetarian dishes. One special thing about the restaurant is that each dish is made to order, so they are happy to accommodate any special dietary needs in preparing each dish, including gluten-free pasta. The owner/server was very friendly, and her English was excellent, as she lived for awhile in Canada and in California. We highly recommend this restaurant!

The food in this restaurant feels like sitting in a kitchen. It is very personal and the food was really fantastic. I would recommend something with Quinoa. read more The food in this restaurant feels like sitting in a kitchen. It is very personal and the food was really fantastic.

Since it is common for wheat flour to be added to most maize flour-based products, I was really adored to some authentic treats. Altura's kitchen delivered with my first Empanada of the trip! I also tried and can recommend the troutceviche, vegetable green curry and chocolate lavender shake. There were many options that were made gluten-free and milk-free or could. So many that we visited Cusco several times a week.
