| - Authentic Peruvian food, with Excellent service and great prices! What more can you ask for?!
I LOVE this restaurant, hands down!
I went to Peru last year, and so delighted to find this little gem. The food here brought me right back to Peru. Their attention to detail is amazing. I ordered the ceviche, which I LOVE, and these guys did it perfectly. It tasted great, and they even served with with the large corn and spicy red pepper (rocoto) just like how they serve it in Peru. The Lomo Saltado (stir-fried beef) was soft, but full of flavour. The Mero con camarones a la crema (fried fish in cream sauce) was delicious. They even accommodated us and grilled the fish instead of frying it. Even the salmon salad was great. You really cant go wrong here.
Just a heads up, the jalea is basically deep fried calamari, or deep fried seafood. It wasn't my favourite, but if you like deep fried food, then maybe you will like it.
In terms of the prices, they are quite reasonable for what you get- the portion sizes are HUGE. The ceviche is ~$22, and considering the portion size, is a steal. Most other dishes are around $19-20, so whomever said this is overpriced was really exaggerating.
Finally, the service is AMAZING! Our group of friends arrived right when the kitchen closed, but they were kind enough to keep it open for us, AND not rush us at all during the meal.
If you want delicious, authentic Peruvian food, with great service and excellent ambiance, this is the place for you.
