Ceviche de Poscado & Ceviche Especial are both amazing. Ensalada de Palta is refreshing. Arroz con Mariscos y Langosta & Pollo Saltado are excellent, great flavors! Laid back, live music some nights.
Lucille FisherOctober 17, 2016Off the beaten track, small family run restaurant worth going! Delicious seafood-ceviche, seafood rice dish (similar to paella) delicious home made sauces. Can't wait to go back try the other dishes!
Levy RiversSeptember 7, 2011If you like french fries and rice, you have to try them together. They serve food that is uncommonly well presented and great tasting. A caution - beware of the green sauce - HOT - and I like HOT.
Richard BemiSeptember 1, 2015ANTICUCHOS!!!!! and the papa rellena...ANTICUCHOS are a must though and I highly recommend the chicken ones the steak is good but nowhere as special as the chicken...enjoy- Jeiran HasanFebruary 25, 2016Had the chicga morada. It's just a touch sweet to knock out the corn taste. It was really interesting to taste! Aji de Gallina was delicious. Mmmm
Mohammed Hassan-AliJanuary 5, 2015So much flavor and spice; delicious. Haven't tasted anything like it before. Main course is pricey but definitely shareable. Will visit again!- Jaye JalsoJanuary 8, 2014Seco de carne like moms best pot roast. Aji de Gallina manages to be creamy & comforting but not too heavily spiced. Delicioso tamale.
Koichi NinomiyaFebruary 25, 2017Crevice & Arroz con Maricos was on point. Green sauce was super addictive.
Paul KennedyAugust 1, 2011Papa a la huancaina best we've had...even better than my Peruvian girlfriend's mom's. She was also amazed by the tamales. Anticuchos could use some work though.
Anh NguyenMay 24, 2015Definitely authentic Peruvian foods. If you ever been to Peru, especially Cusco, everything is either super salty or bland. Try seafoods fried rice, or cilantro fried-rice, and lot of water.
Andrew WhiteAugust 11, 2014Great little authentic Peruvian restaurant. Can be busy, but that's a good sign of quality.
Kathryn F.January 10, 2011This is one of those hidden gem restaurants. Small and somewhat inconspicuous, this restaurant offers great food and even better service. The owners are so friendly!
Andy PerezJuly 28, 2013Been here a handful of times and I've always ordered something different. Always delicious.
Sarah BurghardtMarch 7, 2012Tuesday is live music night; authentic pan flute and guitar playing such authentic tunes as "Hello" by Lionel Richie!- Levy RiversOctober 4, 2011If you like large portions of rice and french fries - with spicy foods and music - this is a place you should know.
Michelin Travel & LifestyleAugust 16, 2011From the amazing ceviche to the aji de gallina with a walnut cream sauce, this spartan place is intriguing. - Inspector
Cecilia MirandaMarch 24, 2013The food was very good and the owner was very nice everything was well done
Jenny PfafflinJanuary 8, 2010Lomo Salatado (ID'd on the menu as their #1 Best Seller) is indeed very fine; also recommended: Papa Rellena and a Inca Cola Read more
