I'm Peruvian and the one thing that's hard to find for myself is authentic Chinese Peruvian food. Now for my birthday I chose to try this restaurant out and see if it's a "diamond in a rough." Needless to say, the staff seem to be untrained, so I get that the lady behind the counter is a bit obvious to handling a huge party (in her defense this place is small).Now concerning the atmosphere, the place is small and is more design for in/out customers. Even the bathroom was a terrible inconvenience, you have to go outside to the back entrance, and it is still cold outside. Not a great dining experience, again, I wanted to give them a try, so I picked them, and we ordered....For the food quality, there was up and downs. Now the traditional Peruvian dish like Lomo Saltado, Tallarin Saltdao, and Arroz Chaufa was delicious. The Chinese Peruvian dish like the Chijaukay was not that impressive. They added too much salt and did not take into account that American soy sauce has more salt than the authentic Peruvian soy sauce. Not to mention that the chicken was cold and reheated because the crumbs was tough. Another dish was the Tipakay, the sauce would have been delicious, but they should have cooked the chicken first before adding the sauce because the juice of the chicken thin out the favor. Chicken with Pina was good, but it could have been better for the same reason with the Tipakay.As I mentioned, this is a small place and the kitchen I would have imagined was not prepared for a huge party (I did give them a heads up 24 hours prior). Still, if you want to be successful, you have to think big and be ready for opportunities like this. My review may not carry weight, but the point is every customer's opinion matter, and it adds up. As a result, I'm the only one in the group giving this ok review. If it was better, they would have gotten 11 great reviews.

100% do not recommend. I ordered a chaufa special with chicken and meat, needless to say it was a disaster. There was barely any if no meat or chicken at all. The chicken and meat that was there was very very small you could barely see it. Way overpriced! With the $40 I wasted here, bc that’s what it was a waste I could’ve went to my local Chinese food and got better food. Stay away from this place if you don’t want to get ripped off.

First approach from the girl in the front was you are ordering to go right? When I had not made a decision but clearly she wanted to hang with family privately and push for someone to leave AT A RESTAURANT. This is the second time I ordered fried wontons. I gave them the benefit of the doubt since it is a newer restaurant. I ordered them again weeks later and specified to add more meat as the last time it had almost nothing. She had a fake forced smiled went to the back I guess to speak to the girl making the fried wontons. Same as last time, almost no meat. The prices are also very expensive compared to other places nearby. I hope this restaurant gives the right amount of food for the prices they are charging as people in this neighborhood want the bang for their buck. I am hesitate to order a full dish as they could not get a fried wonton order right. I hope others have a better experience.

(Translated by Google) A small but cozy place. Recommended the chaufa rice... I didn't give it 5 stars because it would have been better if they gave us something to snack on while waiting for the preparation of the order, popcorn, chifles, or as they do in Choripan they give us slices of hot bread and eat it with I love their sauce. We wait more than 30 minutes(Original)Un lugar pequeno pero acogedor. Recomendado el arroz chaufa... no le di las 5 estrellas porq hubiese sido mejor q nos den algo para picar mientras se esperaba la preparation del pedido, popcorn, chifles, o como lo hacen en Choripan nos dan rodajas d pan caliente y comerla con la salsa d ellos me encanta. Esperamos mas 30 minutos
