Theres parking but it's an interesting area (across Spartan tacos). I ordered the ceviche and leche de tigre. Side order of plantains and yucca fries. The child ordered the bistek with fries and rice. We were first at the restaurant but service was really slow.

As someone who loves Peruvian food, this place is amazing. I had their fried rice, and the dish has my taste buds going crazy. Definitely will be back for more.The restaurant was also clean, and the person working at the front was extremely polite and friendly.

We're so glad we tried this new addition to the neighborhood! The service was super friendly, helpful and casual. Each of the dishes we tried we great, too!Try the beef heart skewers! The seasoning was tasty and they were quite tender. I had the lamb shank, and it was a large portion with a great sauce. The plantains were wonderful, too!

Amazingly fresh seafood in downtown San Jose. If you love seafood or Peruvian food, this is the place for you. Ceviche Emelina's is delicious. I wasn't expecting to find sweet potato in it, but soaking that in the delicious broth from the ceviche was amazing.

The food is great and reasonably priced. This is the second time I came with my daughter and we tried different dishes: she had the Copa Borracha and I had the Chiclayano. We also shared the Causa with shrimp. All very good. For dessert we had the Lucuma ice cream. We get good potions so you can bring the leftover home. We definitely will go back

Lovely place, staff pleasant and helpful. Food so fresh, ceviche hit the spot. Bathrooms while in an older refurbed building were spotless and nice smelling. I look forward to trying more things in the menu.
