Really good Peruvian food. The "lomo saltado" was fresh made and taste deliciously. I really liked the lucuma (tastes close to coffee but it is actually a fruit!) ice cream and the picarones. Would definitely come back

While this place was just alright for the dish prices. Order: Papa Al la huancaína (Poyato with ají pepper sauce) - sauce was awesomely creamy but could have used more flavor. Yucca frita (fried plaintanes)- This was excellent. Nice Golden crisp outside with a fluffy interior. Chiaufa de pollo (Chichen fried rice) - simple fried rice that seemed skimpy on the ingredients. Chicken pieces were like small squishy cubes. Drink: Inca kola can - normal Inca kola in glass bottle - much much better. Sweeter. Probably uses real sugar and basically makes me never want to drink canned Inca kola again. Dessert: Alfajores - pretty much perfect. Soft, just the right amount of chewiness and sweetness. Wish we could have got more but just 2 (while slightly bigger than average) added $5 to the bill. Thoughts: Decor and background music was nice. Staff was very friendly and service was quick. They had a whole more Chinese food menu we didn't try but the chicken in in the chiaufa makes me doubt we'd go b

They were shady. They overcharged me and when I asked why I did not get charged the prices posted in the window, the woman said, "Oh, you need to ask for those prices before you order." Anything to make a buck! Keep your extra $6! Buy some integrity with it! I won't go back. I won't recommend the place to others.
