Avoid. They are closed even though their hours say differently. We drove 2 hrs to try this place because it has 4.0 stars. It was closed. Online in several sites it says they should be open. Read the bad reviews first. Know what you are getting into. Then if for some reason you are still curious, look at the good reviews, see their profiles, so many are fake accounts and staff taking photos from their kitchen acting like they are regular customers. I saw online they say yuca is $6 but charged $7.20 THEN charge you tax AGAIN. PLUS 4% surcharge. Yikes. Please fix these issues. Some ppl say y'all's food is decent, why mess that up with random hours, crazy charges, and blaming the neighbors for cockroaches you have in your restaurant. Just say we will do better and actually do better and then y'all will have tons of ppl traveling to eat at your restaurant. I want Peruvian restaurants to succeed and give good service because Peruvian food is excellent. So there's so much opportunity. I guess I'll never know because they weren't open

I didn't eat anything here because there was only one vegetarian dish. But my husband loved the food here , we visited this place twice on the same day. For lunch, he got the tri colored fish ceviche which he loved and for dinner he got Arroz a la chiclayana con Pollo. Both the dishes looked amazing. I even tasted the coriander rice and it delicious.Though the food takes some time to be served , everything was amazing , and service was also great.They have a few reserved spots for parking adjacent to the building which is convenient.

Delicious! Decor is super cute. Restaurant looks great. We were approached right away by a server. She asked if we spoke Spanish, then proceeded to explain that they were short-staffed and food would take 30 minutes. We were fine with it and appreciated the communication. BTW her English was great. She didn't need to worry about explaining to us. She brought us our beers and some yummy roasted Peruvian corn. Dinner came out and it was delicious. The beef in the Lomo Saltado was incredibly savory and the Pollo Costa Verde was a little spicy and delicious. We were very happy with dinner. It is a little pricey, but everything was fresh and good. Total bonus - there is a small parking lot too.

Please be aware that this restaurant appears to have changed owners and menu. Also...below.Came in based on the amazing Yelp pictures and website as I love Peruvian and was looking to try their causa and pulpo. When we arrived, we received menus (see pics) that did not reflect the menu items shown in Yelp pictures and reviews.The server knew very little English to the point where basic ordering was challenging to do.The pisco sours appeared to be made with margarita mix. It was slightly green, cloyingly sweet and for almost $13, something you might find in a sports bar. Not resembling a craft sour at all.We ordered mixed ceviche. That was actually fairly good, though it had a ton of calamari rings and the white fish was stringy.That said, we had two cockroach sightings in a 30 minute period, one to left and right of me on the booth seat. I let out a blood curdling scream. We let the server know "cucaracha!!" The server was earnest in her search for the first one and caught the second one. She is the best part of this review because she escalated the issue to her manager who apologized and kind of blamed it on a neighbors roach problem. He offered to discount, then comp the ceviche.We were too bugged out (pun intended) to stay for dinner.In fairness, the food that we did try wasn't bad but the restaurant felt like a bait and switch between the Yelp profile and true menu and roaches were a dealbreaker. Will not return.

My friend is Peruvian and he always tells me to try their food with him. We went to a place in la which had a lot of reviews, but no it was not worth the hype for the lomo saltado. This place though was delicious when we ordered that and his favorite is the fried corn chips. I do recommend here, but it is a little pricey and the waiter wasn't very attentive with getting us drinks. Still not bad to try if you're new to Peruvian food. The place is cute and small, but wasn't packed. Parking lot is in the back and tight.

Small spot in Long Beach. Has a little parking lot right ahead of it. Ambiance is very nice and clean with nice aesthetics. They did not have the full menu available when we went in but still has a good selection. We got the Lomo Saltado, the Nikkeia rice and also the shrimp ceviche. Everything was very flavorful and delicious. All very good dishes. Service was good, our food did take some time to come out but otherwise was a good experience.

What an incredible surprise this place was. We usually go to Aji to get our Peruvian, but this place was every bit as good if not better than aji. The presentations were well done if not a bit too contrived. On the tallarine beef I would have preferred the fries mixed into the sauté pan with the filet. But it tasted very good just the same. The corn in the ceviche was great. I highly recommend this place. You gotta go if you like Peruvian cooking, they do it right at azucar, which means "sugar" and this place is sweet.

This place was fantastic! I went here with my date and both of us agreed we would want to come back. The ambiance was fantastic and aesthetically pleasing, our server was extremely attentive and made sure we had everything we needed and the food was really delicious. I had the Lomo Costa & Sierra and my date had the Pulpo brasero. For my dish, the steak and shrimp were cooked just right and the fries were fresh and crispy. Finding Peruvian corn in the accompanying rice was a nice touch as well. However, my date's dish was the real star of the evening. We were hesitant to order octopus since it's usually hit or miss with how it's cooked, but this was cooked perfectly. It had a nice char and the octopus was not tough or chewy but extremely flavorful with the spices and chimichurri sauce. the accompanying vegetables were cooked wonderfully as well. I've already recommended this place to a couple of my friends already and I will definitely be back in the future.
