Vibrant Peruvian spot famed for its fresh ceviche and lively atmosphere, though portions may run small.
This Peruvian gem, helmed by Chef José Luis Chávez, offers a modern and relaxed dining experience with a notable wine selection and creative cocktails. The star of the show is undoubtedly the ceviche, available in both traditional Peruvian and Japanese-Peruvian fusion (Nikkei) styles. For a truly memorable dish, don't miss the tender pulpo al olivo or the highly praised torched salmon.
The restaurant offers authentic Peruvian cuisine, with a strong emphasis on its ceviche, which is frequently recommended. Other dishes like the pulpo al olivo and torched salmon have also received praise. While the food quality is consistently high, a recurring theme is that portion sizes may be on the smaller side, and some diners have observed price increases.
"The ceviche, particularly the Ceviche Mixto, is highly recommended. The pulpo al olivo and the torched salmon are also highlighted as must-try dishes."
Customers generally have a very positive experience, praising the delicious and fresh Peruvian cuisine, particularly the ceviche, and the restaurant's fun, vibrant atmosphere. However, some have noted recent price increases and smaller portion sizes.
