    Food was not served hot but lukewarm. The Arroz con Pollo and the fish dish we had were tasty. Happy hour pricing on wine helped us forgive the food temperature.

    Hopping restaurant and bar scene. The food was truly unique - a mix of Peruvian and Spanish food. They also had a bit of sushi thrown in. The shrimp tostones were good but the plantain cake was a bit stiff. The crispy fish platter was fabulous - it came with crispy breaded fish filets, plaintain/yuka fries, a delicious sauce and aromatic rice. The pisco sours were delicious but could have been a bit stronger.

    Fun dining experience with a lot of great peruvian food choices. Prices are reasonable and atmosphere is very lively. I'll be back but one item to note is it is 'very' loud and can be difficult to hear your dining guests. Make reservations!

    I actually loved this little place and it's amazing how great service can make you so happy and love everything! Our waiter was incredible...knowledgeable, kind, funny, and just the right amount of attention. I also thought the place itself was nice and had a good feeling. The food was very good but not quite was I envisioned. I got a seafood dish (mixed seafood) and the fish was fabulous but there weren't a lot of mussels or other items... this could be due to us coming late (9:30) at night on a sunday. Nevertheless, I can see this becoming a favorite little neighborhood (daughters neighborhood) restaurant!

    We ordered Aji de Gallina and the sauce was too watery. My partner ate Seco de carne and it lack of condiments. The drinks and the leche de Tigre was great. The anticucho lacked of condiments. Our service was great but the food not much.

    Hugo was the best! Great service. I like this place a lot, it has a wonderful vibe and ambience, and the food is generally impeccable. Their causas crocantes are the best in town.This was, however, the first time I was a little disappointed with the food. The chaufa had very little flavor, actually it appeared to completely lack any type of seasoning, including salt. I will be back anyway because, except for this time, I have eaten very well there.

    I thought it would be great to try since my husband is Peruvian and has shown me the delights of Peruvian cuisine. Not to mention the 4.8 stars of close to 5k reviews says a lot! It is SO good! The ceviche (we tried 3 and ALL we amazing), the pisco sours (all of them), even the flan! This is the type of restaurant that you can feel confident about ordering anything on the menu. It will most likely be delicious! We will be back to try more!

    Ceviche and tostones were simply outstanding. We finished our appetizers by the time our drinks had arrived. Pisco sours, however, were great. Entrees were meh. Calamari on one dish was slightly more rubbery than my bicycle tires.

    The food is good and the servers are attentive. It’s a little pricey depending on what you order. My friends salmon looked delish and she enjoyed it. I got the fried fish and it was a small portion with lots of sauce. Servers are kind!
