Friends took us here saying it’s the best Puruvian food in the area.

The service here is phenomenal at this hidden gem. I loved the food. We tried every empanada and I can say the cheese and spinach ones are easily the best. I had the chaufa and it was so nostalgic; tasting of food I grew up with. This hidden restaurant is fabulous and the staff make visiting the most pleasant experience.

Seriously, this is a hidden gem. Without Google Maps, I would have not discovered this restaurant. It is located in an office park area. If you arrive for dinner, as I did, the parking area may seem deserted. Food was delicious and authentic. One has to ask for cancha. It is not readily served. Very good service otherwise. There is seating outdoors as well.

Mildly disappointing starting with the fact that their food does not deliver great Peruvian fare, or for that matter, sizable amounts. The items ordered:

Super good food. They should make the logo lighter. Hard to find the place after getting dark.

Like many reviewers will mention, this is a hidden gem tucked away in an unexpected commercial area yet worth finding. This was my first time coming here and I plan to make this place my go to place for a Peruvian fix. We sat in the shade of a large oak tree which made us feel like we were out in the countryside and not surrounded by the concrete and steel. We started with a red sangria which was very refreshing and well made. We ordered the Chaufa with seafood and the classic Lomo Saltado with cilantro rice. The Chaufa with seafood is basically fried rice, but with very good portions of fresh shrimp, calamari, and strips of fish. The Lomo Salato has a wonderful, savory, meaty flavor, and the fries were perfectly cooked, so they were able to stay a little crisp yet at the same time soaked up the sauce. The cilantro rice was so good I could have eaten it on its own. We ended our meal with the bread pudding, which was a warm, thick slice served with whipped cream and topped with caramel sauce. It’s very sweet with flavors of nutmeg, cinnamon, raisins, and caramel. I would recommend you enjoy it with a nice cup of coffee. The service was also impeccable. Our server Juana, was just as amazing as the food. She was very friendly and helpful when it came to menu choices. This was such a great experience that I look forward to returning soon.

Very disappointing. My wife, daughter, and I wanted to eat here but only had an hour because of my daughter’s schedule. After more than 20 minutes, we still had not been checked on nor been able to flag someone down. We got orders in after 25 minutes and immediately asked for them to go, explaining we were pressed for time. When we got the food (15 minutes later), we had to then ask for the bill. We got the bill but nobody came for my card. To pay, I had to go up to the counter. Needless to say, service was not good and food was bland. The environment was fine, and there was free parking. Our “lunch” will now be our dinner.

The restaurant has a ver nice atmosphere. They have a very nice and pleasant seating area outside under the tree. They are in an office building with is empty in the afternoon so there’s plenty of parking. The food is great too. It deserves its high rating. The last time we were there, we didn’t leave a anything on the plate.

Loved the Empanadas, Arroz con Pollo, Fish Chorrillana and the free bread! The menu is missing peruvian staples like Aji de gallina, Causas etc, hope they include them in future. Little pricey!
