“ Super delicious lomo Saltado and lomo saltado a lo pobre. The dessert was very fresh and tasty. The staff was very kind and constantly checked in to see how everything was. One of the best Peruvians I’ve tasted in Europe. ”
“ Very nice staff and service. We had three different dishes and all were nice and delicious. I also had a cake and it was nice. They serve self made lemon lemonade which my wife liked a lot. Overall highly recommend ”
“ This is the second time I have been to this restaurant, although the last was about 6 years ago. I was born in Peru and lived there for a couple of years in my 20s so get incredibly excited about chicha morada (a drink made from purple maiz, lemon, cinnamon and sugar - soooo refreshing), and inca kola (a fluorescent yellow soft drink that is inexplicably delicious). I am also coeliac (so gluten free) and dairy-free so super awkward. There's a special allergens barcode in the back of the menu so I could work out exactly what I could and couldn't have! Luckily I was able to have the yuccas fritas with guacamole and fried fish with salad. They were both absolutely delicious - you get loads of yuccas fritas so my boyfriend kindly helped me eat them. The staff were lovely and friendly and the food came quickly and was beautifully presented. We also got little pots of olive oil and vinegar to put on it and they were good quality and just the right size for my salad (which was bigger and yummier than I was expecting - see photo). The fish was delicious - cooked just right with a crispy exterior and flaky inside. Really meaty. My boyfriend wasn't super keen on his tamal as he found the corn a bit much (in terms of ratio to meat) but the pork was nice and tender. He had sudado de pescado and enjoyed that too. We were too full for dessert but will likely be back again this week to try some more Peruvian delicacies. One thing to be aware of is that there are two parts to the restaurant and one part was closed tonight so we almost went somewhere else. So if it looks closed when you get there just walk down a couple of doors to see if the other bit is open! Highly recommended, 10/10, great value for money, will be back for more soon! ”
“ Absolutely amazing food and very friendly staff. Nicest restaurant we visited in Las Palmas ”
“ Here now, 10 November. Sat outside overlooking the beach sipping Sangria. I know that's not particularly Peruvian but with the superbly, fresh, balanced and flavoursome combo we've just enjoyed, it couldn't be a better way to celebrate a birthday in the glorious Las Palmas Sunday sunshine. ”
