    The food is great and the service terrific. It's a small restaurant and on a busy night it can get crowded and loud. The food made our wait worthwhile.

    After ordering, we waited 20 min to find out our order is no longer available. The entre, a steak tasted good, but was rubber, and difficult to chew. Staff was freindly and kind, and the atmosphere was lively. Too bad the dinning experience was poor.

    Excellent and outstanding service. The food is not that great, Peruvian cuisine has a lot of flavors, which were lacking in the plates we ordered, very plain food.

    We were so happy to eat here last night. We had just been to a great ceviche place in Miami Dade County and were worried that nothing could match up to it, but your restaurant did the only input I would give is the heat might’ve been on a tiny bit too high! We are definitely coming back and looking forward to your excellent food.
