“ My family and I attended a birthday party here last night. They had a buffet styled layout of exquisite, authentic Peruvian cuisine. The favorite of the night was the ceviche, I highly recommend it. The sangria and Chicha morada were to die for. Their staff were all very kind, friendly and attentive. I will definitely be returning soon! ”
