This Peruvian restaurant is an absolute gem!!! Every dish is a celebration of flavor, showcasing the richness and diversity of Peruvian cuisine with exceptional elegance and creativity. The food is not only delicious but thoughtfully presented, elevating tradicional recipes into a true gastronomic experience. The atmosphere is just as impressive-refined, warm and inviting. The elegant setting creates the perfect balance between sophistication and comfort, making it ideal for a special occasion or a memorable night out. The services is exceptional- professional, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, making you feel cared for from the moment you arrive.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Dirigidos Al Exito · Mar 2026

Unfortunately not the best first experience, place looks amazing and very exclusive, waited 35 minutes to take my order and it was not busy at all. I stay bc I wanted to try the food, Food finally arrived after another 20 minutes, nothing serve like chips for the waiting, so bad, I ordered Chaufa de Mariscos, lot of non flavor rice, 3 shimps, 2 calamaries and 2 conchas. I don’t feel nothing from the exquisite Peruvian food. I am sorry but was not worth it

★★★★★ 5.0 Carolina C · Nov 2025

I recently went to Kai for a wine tasting experience. They had a preset menu with different wine pairings. The food was great and each course/wine was explained in detail. We got generous servings of wine and a history lesson as well, all while they had live music playing. Really great experience, I would come back.

★★★★★ 5.0 Antonio Flores · Dec 2025

I had dinner here yesterday and ordered the Arroz Chaufa Mixto, and everything was excellent. The food was delicious, the service was really nice, and the atmosphere was great. I’ve eaten here before, and I’m happy to see that the prices are now much more affordable, with a variety of new dish options. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Julissa Puig · Oct 2025

We had lunch here and it was delicious. The ceviche was my favorite, but overall each dish was very flavorful. The service was great! We will be back.
