Excellent restaurant. The dishes are succulent. We tried the beef heart skewers and the "lombo saltado" with sour pisco and natural fruit juices. We enjoyed them. The setting is pleasant. The prices are reasonable for Europeans. The only thing is the service is really poor: you have to wait, they don't give good or bad advice, and they're not proactive or attentive. It's not worthy of the quality of the dishes.
Perfect
We tried traditional Peruvian food. Very delicious.
I ordered some Alfredo noodles with high expectations, result: a total failure, without flavor and the sauce was even a little acidic.
One of the best experiences in Arequipa!! I was hesitant to order my “chupe de camarones” because it wasn’t on the menu, but the waiter who greeted us and served us was so polite, professional, and accommodating that he ordered it for me. It was delicious, fresh, and plentiful, with delicious flavors!!! This is my first time visiting them, and it won’t be the last. It’s incredible how the person serving you can make sure you have a great experience!!! Highly recommended. Thank you, Jesus!
We really appreciated this place the first time we visited Arequipa, and after a year, we decided to return. Unfortunately, we weren't allowed in for wearing sportswear, and the treatment we received was noticeably dismissive, which was a disappointing experience.
The food was delicious; both dishes we ordered were generous. The staff was well-trained about the various dietary restrictions and was very kind in explaining which dishes could be adapted to be gluten-free. The menu also included several gluten-free options, including a wide variety of pastas.
So much in Arequipa, nice atmosphere
