For food, we ordered the ceviche combo with everything and fried rice with mixed seafood. For drinks, we ordered chicha morada. Everything was delicious. The ceviche was perfectly marinated. The calamari was crunchy, the fish juicy, the shrimp nice and tangy. The fried rice was on a whole other level. Sweet but not too sweet, and you got some seafood in every bite. It wasn't just 80% rice. Finally, I've never had chicha morada like this before. Very refreshing, and it had a little spice to it. I regret not taking some more to go!

I stumbled upon this nice Peruvian place while walking down the street from my hotel. They were…read moreopen at 4:30pm... perfect for a light early dinner before turning in early! Upon entering, I was greeted by a cheerful young lady who seated and served me. She was able to answer questions about the menu and give recommendations. The ambiance is not too formal. High ceilings and light colours. Bright and upbeat. The menu posted outside was slightly different from the menu I was given. I had looked forward to the squid, but it had been replaced by smelt. I didn't feel like getting that, so went with crab instead. My meal was: - Causa de cangrejo starter - La cholita cocktail - Chocolucuma 2.0 dessert Amuse bouche and petit four were complimentary. The blue crab starter was delightful -- such a good mix of textures and flavours, from the smooth potato below to the bouncy succulent slightly sweet crab meat to tangy sauce, and the crunchy thin fried sweet potato on top! I did bite into a few crab shell pieces though, nothing super sharp or hard, but a bit unpleasant and unexpected. The cocktail was pleasantly sweet and sour. (Given the decadence of the dessert, maybe I should have gone with something more crisp and dry.) The lava cake had a molten centre, as expected, and the lucuma on top added a rich toasted caramel flavour. The meal was leisurely and relaxing. The portions were a bit on the small side, but the richness of flavours tired out my palate, so I felt like I'd had enough food. I would love to visit again, next time with more people.

We also got 3 traditional paellas to share. It was very flavourful but the rice is cooked very very al denté which I'm not used to. I'm not sure it was cooked this way even when I had it in Barcelona. Overall though the flavours were there and the portions were good. However, we ordered 3 of the same paella and we noted to them that one of the three was a lot smaller for some reason. We weren't sure if they had made a mistake. To our surprise, the server (maybe owner?) was not surprised at all and brushed it off, staying that it is the same portion in a much smaller pan. Honestly we had more than enough, but it was kind of awkward that they serve different size paellas for the same price. It seems a bit sketchy like they would change the portion on you depending on the group size? Usually when you order something for a set price, it's a standard size. Besides this, the service was good.
