Tasty and authentic Peruvian food. Here are my thoughts on what we ordered:
.Lomo Saltado: Very authentic and delicious. Exactly what I was expecting. All elements were tasty and well seasoned. One of the best I've had here in the Bay.
.TallarĂn verde con pollo: The chicken itself was very good! Tender, juicy and well seasoned. As for the pasta, it was not bad but I know from personal experience it could be a lot better. Overall it was ok, and portions are very generous.

.Lucuma ice cream: So so good! The perfect end to a great and satisfying meal. Delicious Lucuma taste, would definitely recommend.
Also, the chicha morada is made fresh and to my surprise it was...

Was looking for a place to dine near SCU after a basketball game, and this restaurant came up on the Yelp search. The food is sooooo good and portions ginormous.

We arrived on a Sunday afternoon, and of course, it was busy. The service was spotty and slow. Overall, they could benefit from one more server or cook during busy times. Our food took just over 45 minutes to get to our table from walk-in to first bite.
My wife had a white fish ceviche and when we ordered it they asked us for the level of heat, which we opted for medium. We felt that the medium heat was a too hot, and struggled to finish the plate. The flavor was great, but the heat was distracting. Also, the dish might benefit by having the fish pieces cut into smaller sizes. Our other plate, the Lomo Saltado was served with onions, potatoes and steamed rice. It...
