| - After driving for days across the country we ended up in Tempe at 8:00PM because there were really cheap hotels. Mas closes at 9:00PM but the owner, Ruth, was extremely glad to see us even though it was close to the end of the night.
This was our first experience with Peruvian food, and we shared just shared an appetizer and the beef heart skewers to have a light meal before bed.
First off, just get over the fact you're eating the heart of a cow and try new food. Second off, this place is god damn delicious. Let Ruth pick things for you if you don't know what to try. Let her make you some Peruvian cocktails. The prices are quite varied, so you can have a few dishes to share that are cheap, or go for some of the pricier dishes.
I've decided I really like Peruvian food based on this experience and my only regret is that I'm not able to try more of the menu at Mas. The dishes are very photogenic, the atmosphere is very inviting, and the food is extremely unique/flavorful.
Just off the high way if you're traveling from the east coast to the west coast and nearby several hotels. Our meal was about the same as it would have been if we stopped at some road side diner, or went to a sports pub, and the food quality was far superior.
