Came to eat dinner. Arrived at 7 pm exactly the young waitress told me that they only will do a to go order because it’s to close to closing time. There were 3 tables with people on them. Restaurant hours are posted and closes at 8pm. Looks like this has happened before according to other reviews. Had eaten here many times before and always enjoyed it. After the waitress told us she would jot seat is she went back and started laughing with the other employees behind the register. Not coming back here will try other options and definitely not recomend them. Sad !!

I originally had a 5 star from a few years ago. We just went this past weekend and it was ok. I mean you could eat the food but the anticucho was very hard and you could tell it was most likely reheated, when ordering we asked how many pieces come on a plate and she told us 9. When we got it there were 6. We asked and she said well these are big prices, nothing more. The papa a la huancaina didn’t taste quite right, it almost tasted like they put chicken bouillon in it. The lomo Saltado was not fresh. Also we took some friends who have never had Peruvian food and we were showing them what each item was on other people’s tables. The lomo they brought out before ours you could see was fresh and lots lots more than what we received. When you make lomo it shouldn’t soak up the juices like in the onion or potatoes and ours was way too doused in soy sauce. The pollo a la braza was good not great like I have had at other places, and the green aji was way way too salty. I mean to the point where you couldn’t even eat it, it was too salty. The Jalea was good but it usually has cancha with it. We mentioned these things to the waitress and she just shrugged and said ok. Nothing. The service this time was not great. I don’t think I will go here again.

I’ve been to this restaurant a handful of times. It’s a small quaint spot. Service is quick. I’ve only had the lomo saltado. It’s pretty delicious. The choco flan was tasty. The location is easily accessible from bangerter highway. Parking is ample. The facility is clean. They are taking great measures to protect everyone involved during this Covid pandemic situation.

I love this place. I’m not very familiar with Peruvian food but I like this place. It’s a little pricey for what you get it but it’s a nice change in flavors. I would definitely recommend you check it out.

Food was okay, but very pricey. Two people for $70- $ 80….twenty dollars more and a family of 5 eat in an Applebees. Anyways, it is all done. Good to go every now and then, but that’s it.

Two stars for the service. It was only one server and she was running all over and basically my two stars goes for her hard work. Food was ok, I was expecting for more. Great menu selection, but doesn’t taste as it looks on pics. Sea food didn’t taste as fresh as they charge for it. I love Peruvian dishes and know how delicious it can taste. Will not try it again.

We went there to celebrate my birthday. The lady was nice and took our order and made us pay upfront instead of the end of the meal. We never got our receipt. By the time food was ready she told us to not forget to pick up our food ourselves, she put it in a to go box when we were dining in… we had to grab our utensils from an empty table and cups ourselves and nobody checked on us. anyways it would had been nice to be welcomed and invited to seat down and get our order taken like everybody else at the table or any restaurant. The ceviche tasted different from what I remembered the first time (no as good…) and I bit something in the ceviche that I had to wait until I got home to get it out of my tooth, I might need to go to the dentist if it is still hurting or gets infected bc I believe there is another piece of it that I couldnt get out and it is bothering me … I’ll share the picture. There is no trash cans other than in the bathroom… the bathroom wasn’t clean… Overall, the experience wasn’t as good as the first time.

I am just going to give this wonderful place five stars because it’s fantastic, the chicken was so tender, juicy, and just full of flavor I will be going back, I tell everyone about this place, it can get busy on the weekend, but worth the wait, the only thing I can see for improvement is if they didn’t use frozen French fries and instead had hand-cut fries. Still, this no way will keep me away from this delicious spot, oh and the coffee is tasty as well; I also tried the ceviche, which is now my second favorite dish here. Prices reflect the quality but still fair, and the service is excellent and friendly.
