This Peruvian deli/grocery is my go-to for fresh Chicha Morada, which is a drink made primarily…read morefrom purple corn. It tastes and looks like Caribbean Sorrel, which is made from the petals of a Hibiscus plant. I usually have Chicha "to go". Today, the first day of a 15-day Peruvian Restaurant Week, I sat down and ate. There are two rooms in the back. The first room has three tables, each of which has four chairs. The second room has four tables. All seven tables were at least six feet apart in order to enforce COVID-19 guidelines. However, there were no temperature checks or contract tracing like I have seen in many other restaurants. For starters, I had a beef empanada. It was just ok because the crust was too thick and the meat was lukewarm. I prefer piping hot, thin-crusted empanadas, straight out of the oven. For the main course, I had the lamb chops with yucca, orange pepper and raw red onions, which was one of the behind-the-counter specials of the day. The lamb was overdone because I like mine medium-rare. My total meal came out to $17 including tax. This restaurant has a namesake FaceBook page that diners should check out before coming, so they can view the daily specials. Street parking is available, and there is a small lot in the back. The four stars is because the deli's interior design needs a makeover. It appears as if the last time this place was renovated was many years ago.

The menu clearly states that prices do not include tax, which is perfectly fine. My issue is not…read morewith paying tax, it's with how I was charged. The owner, who was working the register, charged me more than the menu prices plus tax. It appeared that she rounded up the total and added extra charges that didn't match the posted prices. When I asked the employees about the pricing, every one of them said they didn't know because only the owner handles the pricing. I asked for an itemized receipt because the total didn't seem right. Once the receipt was handwritten by her, it showed I had been overcharged, and the owner immediately had to issue me a refund. What was most frustrating was how casually the situation was handled, as if overcharging a customer was no big deal. If your costs have increased, update your menu prices. Don't charge one price on the menu and something different at the register, she claims she's charging you tax but she's rounding up amounts to the nearest dollar and even more on some items like the rotisserie chicken. She's stealing from her customers and then became upset and raised her tone of voice when she got caught. She's also not nice to the employees, you can tell they are afraid of her. My advice to anyone eating here: always ask for an itemized receipt and check your bill before you pay. Don't assume the total is correct just because the owner is ringing you up. There were also flies on the food served at the buffet so we asked for take out. The food was good but she ruined everything for us because she's very rude and unprofessional.

The drinks were amazing, not too sweet, and the food - wow. It's so nice to go to a restaurant with FLAVOR in their food ! Hunny they went in on the preparation. Well seasoned, not too expensive, large portions- did I mention the happy hour !!? I need to come back here. The drinks we got were less than $8 each.

The steak was juicy and tender and flavored so well. We also ordered the arroz chaufa and fries, which is chicken and Peruvian fried rice. Peruvian fried rice is now my favorite fried rice ever!
