Customer Reviews
The shaved ice is very good, I'd recommend the Mango and Tamarind half and half, sweet milk on top if you prefer. The syrup is sweet enough for me. I didn't know they make all the juices in house, and they're vegan too! Big bonus for my friends who prefer to avoid animal products.
Great variety of peruvian products! They had everything that I was looking for: alfajores, budin, chicha morada, turrones and much more. A very small store, but packed with a lot of great stuff.
I love the empanadas and products at this place, so much so I drive all the way from south, lots of tolls, around an hour to get here, finding the place closed when it’s supposed to be open it’s frustrating, and not the first time either. Have some respect for your customers, at least post it on your ig, or pick up the phone to let us know and save us the time and disappointment.
I got a minuta (Peruvian snowcone) with Tamarindo and Diablito which is lime, salt and Chamoy. It was delicious, and the tamarindo is definitely house made, with all the pits still in the sauce which really makes it look fresh. My husband got coconut and banana and it had the best coconut flavor with chunks of coconut. They’re super nice, and also the store has lots of Peruvian products which makes me want to try out some Peruvian recipes.
Good place for all your Peruvian food needs. The Lucumo ice cream wasn't great though.
