We were staying just round the corner so this was walking distance and we really enjoyed the variety of the menu. The service is very warm & attentive, and the food was really good. Would definitely recommend going here.

Imagine any ramsay tv show before any renovating, and here you are. Ceviche made from frozen shrimp and scallops... Not much a point to had lime, the tuna was decent but nothing special. Bbq rib at a peruvian??? With cesar salad on the menu, seriously the decor is cluttered with plastic plants hunging all over the place making you feel... More

always consistent always excellent the Peruvian American food that Mary and Javier serve can be considered better than most regular American restaurants. The tapas and early bird discount surpasses all expectations with their quality and portitions. Desserts are to die for craftfully prepared by Mary earlier in the day. New guest to our area, returning veterans or locals looking for... More

It came highly recommended and then ... where is the beef. The food had no character, lacked that it factor making you want to come back. So we are not.

My husband and I enjoyed our meal, but it was a little skimpy for the price (and that was WITH the 20% discount). We got 3 small plates: the Margarita Shrimp (which was tasty but not outstanding), Emanadas de Carne (which were good but tiny), and Conchitas a la Parmesana (very good - my favorite of the meal). We also... More

Great little South American restaurant and shares this little strip mall with a French and Pizza restaurant - both also good.

Not much for location, but you'll have first-rate ceviche and fish here, attentive service, and great value for your dollar. As long as you don't mind not having view and atmosphere, you won't be sorry to experience very good food, lovingly presented, and with a small price tage.

You are in for a treat at this Peruvian restaurant. The finest meals and service on the key. The husband and wife owners are the greatest and their competent staff look after you so well. You must try hubby's banana foster. Nothing to dislike!
