THE LEAD VERDICT
“my kids literally demolished the chicken empanadas - flaky pastry good filling perfect size for their hands. and the staff WAS super patient when my 6 year old asked a million questions about everything”
“for real no high chairs available and teh communal seating thiiing made it really tricky with three little kids. ended up holding my toddler the whole time which wasn't ideal meh”
ALSO FILED
“never had peruvian food before but that rotisserie chicken?? insane. so juicy and seasoned with some spice blend i couldnt even figure out. came with these green and red sauces that actually had serious kick”
“the quinoa salad side was pretty bladn ngl felt like an afterthought wouldve rather had regular rice or more of those crispy potatoes meh”
“the anticuchos were insane - charred and smoky on the outside but then you bite into it and its SO tender like almost buttery and just melts in your mouth, and that aji amarillo sauce is creamy and spicy at the same time which was perfect”
“the yuca fries tho were disappointing af, theyre supposed to be crispy on the outside adn fluffy inside but these were just.. soggy the whole way through”
“yo ok so the lomo saltado showed up and it was just GORGEOUS - like those red bell peppers were so vibrant next to the caramelized onions and the beef was perfectly seared, all sitting on top of these golden fries that literally gleamed”
“the lighting in here is absolutely TERRIBLE for taking pics honestly... those fluorescents up top just completely wash out the food and create these nasty shadows that literally no filter can save smh”
“teh pollo a la brasa is straight fire!! crispy skin, juicy meat, that green sauce hits different like look this is like street food but make it fancy”
“seriously had to wait 20 mins for a table when teh place was barely even half full like come on yikes”
“massive portions for only $14 - teh arroz con pollo could literally feed two people. rice was perfectly seasoned chicken was tender those black beans on the side were seriously good smh”
“they charge $3 extra for the aji verde which like... should come with most of these dishes? adds up when u want both the green and the spicy red sauces”
“ok thier lomo saltado is INSANE - perfectly charred beef with crispy fries mixed right in the stir-fry. street food but like. elevated ya know and then def THAT wok hei flavor is unreal”
“waited 25 mins for my order on a tuesday at lunch. kitchen was slammed i guess but still felt kinda long for something thats supposed to be fast casual”
“the bartender actually knew his stuff about pisco like he explained all the different brands while i was waiting for my ceviche, made eating alone at the bar feel way less lonely if that makes sense”
“they brought out my empanadas before i even finished my first pisco sour which felt kinda rushed when youre trying to take your time and enjoy everything would reccomend”
