For the main course, the lomo saltado was a hearty meal, perfectly seasoned and served quickly, even with live music in the background enhancing the cozy vibe.

The staff was friendly and attentive, making the experience enjoyable for our group. Don’t miss their happy-hour drinks; the cocktails were refreshing! Definitely a great spot for families or a casual night out. 🎶🥂

I'd give this place 0 stars if I could.
The service is "TERRIBLE!" I arrived at 9PM on a Saturday for a meal.
I was not given a menu or offered any drinks.
I had to find a waitress, order my meal and was forced to pay before my food even came to the table.
I then ordered a couple of drinks for my friend and I.
As soon as the drinks came to the table, the security guard told me that I had to pay $30 or leave right away.
I kindly asked if we could finish our drinks quickly.
(I even said, "please, just give us 2 minutes just to finish the drinks before leaving") He then grabbed the drink out of my hand and forced us to leave! This place is not a business, it's a joke! They treat their paying customers like dirt! I will never ever go back to this place in my life and will always remember the terrible way they treated me!

Is this a typical by star restaurant? No.
But it gets them nevertheless.
Let's first start with the food.
Choosing solely from the Peruvian side of the menu, we started with an absolutely delicious fish ceviche.
We got the smaller size but it was still a ton of food.
Paired with the toasted corn for some texture and yam for sweetness this was in amazing dish.
On to the steak and plantains with fried eggs, this was a flavorful and hearty dish.
I wish the potatoes had been actual fried potatoes instead of plain French Fries.
But the beef was so savory good.
Churros for dessert and two people left there stuffed beyond belief for $45 including a generous tip.
Why the tip? Because service was impeccable.
Good information, friendly (despite some language barriers) and just over all made you feel like you were the reason they work there.
The owner even stopped by.
Decor was a very dive bar-like and they had 21 TV's playing loud Spanish music videos.
But who cares? The experience was fantastic!
