   This is definitely a neighborhood gem! Delicious cuisine and great drinks! Love their outdoor dining patio. And our server, Ashley,was really friendly and attentive.

   Excellent food. I recommend the empanada platter, as well as the churrasco (sp?).

   Had some gooey cheese thing that was supposed to have chicken in it. Where’s the chicken? Lomo Saltado was supposed to have beef in it. Where’s the beef? Skimmed on both. Main server was good and friendly. The person that brought the food to us did not bring serving utensils. Had to wait until someone finally noticed we were waving our hands for help. Empanadas were very good. Won’t be back.

   We had a nice lunch meeting and enjoyed the ceviche, salmon and Lomo Saltado. I will have to return to try their cocktail menu and dessert. Great service and delicious food.

   Overall the restaurant deserves a solid 8/10. I’m basing this review on my wife’s feedback as she is from Peru. Food: The meals were flavorful, yet my wife felt let down. I had high expectations that the Chef would impress her on our special date night. She chose the Lomo Saltado, which had tender meat and a delightful flavor. However, the letdown— and this is significant— is that a high-end Peruvian restaurant should not serve frozen fries! That's unacceptable for Peruvian cuisine. Lomo Saltado should feature fresh ingredients made on-site. (Or as she put it, "if you’re going to use frozen fries, at least use steak fries.”) I had the Arroz con Mariscos, which was quite tasty with a nice amount of seafood, rating it 8/10. We also ordered a Leche de Tigre, and that was how food should taste! Bravo! It was so delicious; it felt more like Ceviche than Leche de Tigre, but it was AMAZING! The ingredients were perfectly balanced, with canchita, choclo, and just the right amount of heat. Just a suggestion for the kitchen: if a customer asks for aji, please keep the seeds and veins in the Ajimoto or Rocoto. I found it lacked heat. Drinks: We enjoyed the Pisco Sour, which was excellent and delicious! Service: 10/10—quick and very good.

    We had cocktails, ceviche and entrees for a Valentines dinner. The Lady cocktail was one of the best I’ve had. Didn’t expect the smoothie texture. Loved the balance of lime and cucumber. Fish ceviche was fabulous, so flavorful with a touch of jalapeno heat. Id get the adobo again but the seafood paella wasn’t as impressive in terms of quality and flavor. Overall excellent service, enjoyed the open bright ambiance more than Parada, would go back for sure.
