I’ve been going here since high school. The best sauce I’ve ever had. Fried fish is always fresh and they give you good sized portions for your money. Love the customer service. I like this

A nice reminder of how Peruvian food is supposed to be. The service and atmosphere could use some work, but the food is considerably consistent with the way it was before we moved to Atlanta’s bustling city. The reason for the four stars on food and service is based on the fact that the quality of meat is not the same although the seasoning is the same and the waitress, attitude changed only after I pointed out that she used to work at a different location of the same restaurant family and how I used to be a regular. As a customer, the treatment should be same excellence regardless of whether it was my 1000th time or my very first.

I ordered the mixto saltado and it had no flavor what so ever extremely bland, I don’t know if they have a new chef but he is 100% trash, I always ordered here and never had any problems until last week until they tried to accommodate me with the same dinner but yet once AGAIN no seasoning no sauce. The steak was extremely dry I almost had lock jaw, I wouldn’t recommend this place go downtown to acuarios. $20 for food to be disgusting if beyond me. Never again
