I was excited to finally try this place with my husband. We came in for an early dinner during the…read moreweek and it wasn't busy at all. We had a very friendly waiter. I didn't want to write this review but I had a concern about something about the menu. I ordered the tequenos de pollo as an appetizer and the menu didn't say anything about it having cheese in which was perfect. I got the order and it in fact had cheese. I'm lactose intolerant and really sensitive to dairy so I asked about the cheese being in it. He confirmed it was in there, so I asked if they can just take it back- the waiter said no. I then asked if they can just take it off the bill because I couldn't eat it. He said no to that too. My husband doesn't eat meat and my son is lactose intolerant so it was going to be food wasted and money down the drain. I was pretty shocked because I've never been to a restaurant where they can't reasonable accommodate the guest. I then ordered my entree and the chicken was very dry and overcooked. I was not satisfied but I knew they wouldn't let me swap it for something else. Unfortunately I'm not going to rush to come back. The waiter was friendly enough but not accommodating. I get nervous when it comes to food allergies because now I know that some restaurants aren't disclosing food allergens which is actually not allowed. There are folks out here with life threatening allergies, so these places need to be careful. I'm glad I'm not one of those people but it's still disappointing.

The restaurant is very beautiful with really cool decor and vibey music. The pisco sour and passion fruit sour were both delicious to drink and all of the food was incredible! The chicken pachamanquero, arroz con mariscos, fettuccine huancaina, and steak were all terrific. The fettuccine huancaina was my order and I don't know if I've ever had anything that tasted like it before--so unique and flavorful! Jesus took great care of us, attentive without being overly present and had great recommendations. Thanks for a wonderful dinner, Chicha!

My first time trying Peruvian food and I had so much fun!…read more I arrived on a Monday around 4:45pm for their happy hour specials. There was no wait when we arrived. We had the kindest server who let me sample a few (non alcoholic) drinks before making my decision. My colleague and I ordered two appetizers off the bar bites menu. We ordered the yucas y platanos ($13) and the beef heart anticuchos ($17). Then, we felt like we could still eat a little bit more so we split the ceviche mancora ($26). All the food was fantastic. A few days later, and I'm still thinking about how great those beef hearts were. So flavorful, so tender, and such a fun texture. I was so surprised with how much I enjoyed them. In second place was that ceviche mancora. The sauce had the perfect spice. We asked for between a mild to a medium, and my mouth is watering just thinking about it. Our waiter was extremely patient with explaining every dish, giving us recommendations, and making sure we were comfortable with the spice level. He really spent extra time with us to explain everything and I really appreciated it. Overall I would highly recommend this spot if you're in the area.

The atmosphere and location are great - it's a beautiful space and feels lively. The cocktails were delicious and authentic. And the butter cake... WOW. I would absolutely come back for that alone. That said, the main courses didn't quite do it for me. The octopus was overcooked, the sweet potato had a strange aftertaste, and the ceviche didn't feel very Peruvian in flavor or delivery. Overall, I really wanted to love it. There are definitely highlights, but the mains need some refinement to match the rest.

One word to describe the food here: sad. My husband and I went for Dine Downtown and tried one of…read moreeach item on the pre-fixe menu. Land and sea chowder: tasted good but the portion was tiny. We ate the whole serving in no joke, 2-3 spoonfuls. Smoky bluefin tostada: again, tasted good but portion was so small. 3 very large tortilla chip-looking chips with a very tiny slice of tuna on each chip. On a very large plate. The whole thing looked so sad. Sea bass à la huancaina: soooo sad looking. 2 tiny pieces of sea bass, both overcooked, one under seasoned and one so over seasoned and salty that it was hard to eat. Had one singular olive on top that tasted and looked random on the plate. One singular piece of wilty looking lettuce that made the whole thing feel depressing. The only thing good tasting on it were the 2 small pieces of potato and the sauce. Lomo Saltado plate: my husband got this one, but the pieces of steak I tried were over cooked and salty. There was a tiny pile of sad rice on the plate. He said he didn't really like the dish either. Desserts: at first the waiter told us we could only have 1 dessert to share for every 2 people (lol)! That was different from other pre fixe menus where each person gets one dessert! We were wondering, were the desserts larger sized so it makes sense for it to be shared? Nope, it was a regular sized dessert. The waiter was nice enough to sneak a second one to us, and honestly the desserts were probably the best tasting things of the whole meal. Butter cake was flavored well and had a very nice texture, and rice pudding was good too. Hats off to our waiter who snuck us that extra dessert, made the whole meal a little less sad lol. Side note, we spoke to some friends who went to this place earlier in January for Dine Downtown and they said they each got a dessert as a regular part of the meal. Not sure if they were running out of supply at the end or what, but c'mon, should be better prepared than that as a restaurant with your supplies so you're not jipping paying customers out of food we paid for. Seriously would not come here again. The food we got was not worth over $100. The whole experience felt stingy and sad, and food wasn't good. Sad representation of Peruvian food.

Both items were pretty good - I liked that the Crunch Wrap had a cheese crust on the outside of the tortilla and the Quesadilla had some nice cheese pulls. Both also came with tortilla chips and salsa. Their menu is small and they do not offer rice and beans, but they do offer tacos and nachos as well as a few other items. Food came out quickly and staff were friendly as well! Can't really speak on the ambiance since it was a food truck, but I would check them out again if I saw them around! Check them out!

I am once again imploring anyone who comes across this food truck to GET THE KRUNCH WRAP. Finally,…read moreafter what felt like forever waiting for them to come back around to the Capitol, I got to order the krunch wrap again. This time, I got al pastor. The two options are al pastor or chicken or for $1 extra, asada. If you can't stand those two options, sure go ahead and order with the asada, but if you could go either way, choose the al pastor! It was so tender, flavorful, and juicy. I've only had al pastor this delicious one other time and have been chasing down that flavor for almost two years now and am happy to say I have found it with Ahuevo's al pastor. On top of that, the tostada inside is so unbelievably crispy and light and the toasted cheese on the outside is so genius. Those are probably the two characteristics that I love the most about this menu item. A few things were different with my experience this time, but nothing that would garner a lower rating. First, it was served in a nacho style tray rather than a takeout box. Not the biggest fan because it's difficult to transport, but on a good day, find a bench and you'll be just as comfortable as if you ate it in your office. Second, there were significantly less tortilla chips included. I counted maybe like six... but! They're not really important to the dish, except for when some of the fillings inevitably fall into the tray and you're left with the tortilla chips to scoop them up (you don't wanna waste this stuff). Lastly, there was no side sauce like when I ordered the asada, but again, not necessary! I wasn't a big fan of the sauce to begin with when I tried it, because the flavors are so balanced in the krunch wrap by itself that it's just not needed. Ok, one other thing that was different- the fillings were so generous! Last time I was biting into some thick layers of tortilla, but this time they got the ratio on the money. If you can only get one thing from this truck, get this and you will not regret it whatsoever. And just to emphasize, the quality versus the price of the food is absolutely insane. With surging food prices, I was happy paying $12 and am looking forward to hopefully seeing them in front of the Capitol again.
