Customer Reviews
This is one of the best Peruvian restaurants I’ve been to. The food is very good. We had the seco combinado and the parihuela. It tasted like it was homemade. They have a home made hot sauce which we bought a bottle of as it was delicious. The service was very friendly and the ambience was nice and relaxing. I don’t usually write reviews but I felt this place really deserves one. The only downside is that it is a bit pricey but worth it.
Passed the restaurant so many times. Finally decided to try and was pleasantly surprised. The vibe was casual, modern and comfortable. No loud music. Service was good. Staff offer sample of juice to try. Had the seafood ceviche and it was delicious with a little hot sauce on the side. The Tacu- Tacu came with pan fried rice and beans. It was delicious! Bistec had nice grilled flavor and wasn’t dry. Maduros were cooked to perfection- sweet, plump and not dry. Overall, good food and good value. Highly recommend. I Enjoy supporting local businesses.
Tries for first time after meeting friends for a pool game close by and this was a very nice, cozy and small Peruvian place. Loved the food and atmosphere. Ok we got various dishes, sweet plantains were great and my limo saltado excellent.
We recently had the pleasure of having our event catered, and the food was nothing short of outstanding. Every dish was packed with flavor, beautifully presented, and exceeded our expectations. The staff was incredibly professional and attentive. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how delicious everything was. We’ll definitely be dining with them again very soon!
Very good place to stop in for some Peruvian food. My two friends are Peruvian and they come here often . They finally invited me and I must say the food did not disappoint the Seco Combinado was good m. Ceviche, and Passion fruit juice was very tasty and juicy. I would come back.
