“ The restaurant is bright with colors and the staff is very friendly. The food was delicious. This place is highly underrated. I will definitely be back. ”
“ Let's get into it Because the restaurant is located in uptown the parking isn't great. There's a garage close by but they don't validate. So take into account $10 parking fee. We arrived at 9pm on Friday night. There was a wait but we got lucky and got a table right away. So i suggest having a reservation. The restaurant is well decorated and they were playing music. Most people had on heels and were dressed nicely. There seems to be a private dining area room and downstairs they have a bar, dance floor and music. I ordered the passion sour as my cocktail. It was very strong and didn't have any passion fruit flavor at all. It was still good but if you're looking for something on the lighter side, i would suggest something else. We also ordered a mule which was good. Lorena was our server. She was very nice. We asked for some plate recommendations, she said the lomo salteado was the most popular. She didn't check on us as much as you would expect but we were ok with that. Now the food: We ordered the lomo salteado and the tacu with lomo Both were good and had good flavor. But nothing really that stands out. Also the dishes were cold. I do think Both plates were a good size. We ended up having left overs. I do also wish the menu had more of a variety of items. ”
“ I thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant. The food, music, and service were all great. I definitely recommend you try the purple corn drink. It was delicious. ”
“ Excellent authentic Peruvian food! All the staff in the kitchen are Peruvian which explains the quality to the food. Skip the random sushi on the menu and stick to the classic dishes. Service was awesome --Ricky was pleasant and attentive! I enjoyed watching the videos on the large screens. Reminded me of our trip! ”
