However, she did check on us and asked if we needed anything. For me, I care more about the food. I haven't had Peruvian food in a while, so came here. We ordered the ceviche peruano, Lomo Saltado and Charcoal half chicken. We also were served unlimited chips & salsa. Chips and salsa were good, the salsa they had - not sure what it was but I liked it. The Ceviche peruano was good, lots of acid from the lime though, very strong lime juice flavor. Good amount of fish, some slices of sweet potato and corn. I used some of the chips to eat the ceviche which worked well. The lomo saltado came with rice, fries, beef with tomato and onions. The rice was fine, fries were crispy and not seasoned. The fries didn't need to be seasoned per the dish, and the sauce with it. The beef was very chewy, came with onions and three pieces of tomatoes. It tasted fine, nothing special. The fries being dipped in the sauce/gravy they had with the beef was really good. The charcoal chicken came with a salad, and fries. The salad had no dressing but they did bring sauces for us to use. Fries were unseasoned but freshly fried. Chicken was moist and flavorful. We were given 3 sauces - salsa verde, a red vinegar like one and one that tasted similar to spicy mayo. They went well with the chicken, but chicken on its own was fine. Overall, decent experience. Came here on a weekday at dinner time and we were the only two tables there. There is parking, and they do have deals like $10 for a quarter chicken, rice, tortillas, beans and a drink. There's whole chicken deals too.

Wonderful little family-run Peruvian restaurant that's worth a visit. Ignore the posts/reviews…read moreabout "service is bad." It's not. It's a small family-run place. Honestly, I get really tired of some Yelp reviewers who act so entitled and belittle a small place like this--it does not reflect well on the Yelp community. And here's a hint, you don't go to a restaurant 45 minutes or shorter before closing time and expect a perfect experience. In fact, many restaurants now close their kitchens to orders 30 minutes before that closing time; so stop acting so freaking entitled when you go in that time window. Okay, on to this place. We LOVED it. The service was friendly and helpful. No, it's not the fastest in the world, and mistakes were made (one for us with an ingredient we're allergic to--so ALWAYS double- and triple-check), but we didn't expect it to be. It was fine. The food was wonderful. These are Peruvians, and these are their family recipes. They may be different from certain other Peruvian family recipes. So what. Deal with it. The food was great. We will be returning. Many times. Loved it!
