Drove to SF from Santa Cruz for a museum exhibit and stopped here for lunch. Great service and experience. Ocopa, ceviche, anticuchos. Delicious! Will definitely come back. Highly recommend.

I almost didn't want to review this place because it is SOOOOO GOOOD and want it to stay a secret. Everything is perfect - food, service, ambiance! I forgot to take pics because I inhaled everything as soon as it came out! Lomo saltado was full of flavor and seasoned perfectly - fries nice and crispy as well! The owner is super attentive and came out to tell us the story of him opening and how his restaurant survived the pandemic so he was really appreciative of us being there.

Horrible Customer Service! Mal Servicio al Cliente. Yo e venido aqui y me a gustado la comida. Vine el Dia de hoy Domingo 14, 6:15pm y en Cuanto entramos el dueño dijo "ya estamos cerrados , no tengo arroz no tengo arroz ,se acabo el arroz"parado con su mano en la cintura muy grocero en mi opinion . HAY MANERA DE ANTENDER ESPECIALMENTE CUANDO ERES EL DUEÑO. I don't recommend horrible Custumer service, I came in with my family at 6:15 pm , the owner received us with a negative attitude and his hand on his waist saying we're closed because we're out of rice .

The restaurant is recommendable. I really like the grilled chicken and the food prices are very comfortable. It is not expensive compared to other restaurants. My congratulations.

We ordered the causa de pollo, it was very good, the fried yuca, it was very tasty, but it was a tiny portion. It's the reason why I am giving it 4 stars. Yuca is not expensive, the portion should be double the size! The huancaina sauce was amazing!The lomo saltado was maybe the best I have had in San Francisco. And it was a huge amount. Strange how some dishes are such a small portion and others are so generous. I totally recommend the place, other than some dishes really having minuscule portion sizes.Please fix this so I can give you five stars!

Good food , service was fast , soccer game was on , it felt more like someone's home than a restaurant in a sort of ways while having like a good authentic home cooked meal. I enjoyed my meal and the ambiance. Would eat here again

It is one of the best Peruvian restaurants in town. Too bad the location is not that great.Parking: Best is to use Uber or public transportation.

Great Food. Service was amazing. Our service was the owner of the restaurant. He was a great humble person! A must go to for authentic Peruvian food!

During a long layover in San Fran., my daughter chose this restaurant. To be honest, when the Uber driver pulled in front of this establishment, I thought it was a mistake. There's no banner or sign outside indicating what it is. From my vantage point, the place really looked seedy from the outside. The ambiance wasn't much either, but I'm here to tell you.., seedy looking and all, the food and service was nothing short of EXCELLENT. The passion fruit drink was quite a hit with my palate. The Arroz Con Marisco was delish. The fish was light, airy and flavorful. The Calamari was a hit as well. Just the right crunch and seasoning leaving me to secretly want to order another round. As for the Ceviche., my daughter is the connoisseur of that dish and she gave it the Chef's kiss.
