This place was great, so authentic from the food to the decor. The owners a sister and brother duo were so hospitable, no rush and spent time talking to us about their restaurant and the food. The food was cooked to order and was served hot and at the same time. It was delicious, the saltados were served and a perfect portion, right amount of ingredients (tomatoes and onions) and incredible flavors. The empanadas, these are hand made, pop in your mouth goodness, so flavorful and light. The cocktails, they have an extensive list, I highly recommend the Eternity with hibiscus syrup; it’s incredible!
The flan we shared and it was good but we were stuffed. We will be back, they do take out and have a spacious outdoor patio for the warmer weather months with a fire pit and outside bar.

Just had an amazing dinner at Cuernas! Everything was so fresh and authentic. The food and drinks were delicious and the service was impeccable. Shirley was so welcoming from the moment we walked in the door until the moment we left. So happy we found this place and already can’t wait to go back.

We live 40 minutes away, but my husband and I come to Quenas now and then because it has reliably delicious food and attentive, kind service. The dishes are beautifully presented, adorned with an edible flower (I always eat mine…why not?), and any cocktails with foamy tops have a little heart “drawn” atop the foam. The complimentary Peruvian toasted corn is positively addictive. The outdoor seating area is festive and cheerful, with lots of twinkling lights. The vibe is a bit like a Peruvian prom, but I think it’s fun!

Love this place!! The outdoor patio is so cute and I love how they have sweaters/ponchos available if it’s cold. Food is incredible and the pisco sours are addictive!

Had a lovely dinner here tonight. The outdoor space is lovely, surprisingly so since it’s kind of in an alley between two buildings. There is area under a tent and then outside the tent, and both are very pretty. The food was delicious and very well-sized. We enjoyed the fried rice, green spaghetti, and steak, with a side of plantains, and everything was excellent. We were informed they had chicken fingers as an option for kids, and were pleasantly surprised they had actually made from scratch – it was delicious too. In addition the staff were very kind and brought out games for my kids to play with as we waited for food (which was a surprisingly short wait). My kids also had a great time playing darts.

Came to Quenas for a family dinner, and I must say this place is a hidden gem. The staff are attentive and helpful. The Peruvian food and cocktails were reasonably priced and fantastic. While the indoor area of the restaurant is small, they have an outside courtyard and a heated large tent area just next door. There’s only street parking available but we didn’t have a problem with that.
