Sorry, but that is not Peruvian food,it's more like fusion, I wouldn't recommend this restaurant if you are looking for something authentic.

I had a disappointing experience. Despite the good food, the customer service was dreadful. Upon arrival, we were told we needed a reservation, even though the website didn't mention anything about reservations. We were told to eat at the next door restaurant instead. To make matters worse, we were rushed through our meal and given a time limit to eat. This lack of consideration and communication ruined what could have been an enjoyable dining experience. I won't be returning.

I don't know why you guys says you have Peruvian food ,when you don't. So disappointing to go there because of the good reviews. You only serve 3 peruvian dishes the way should be,otherwise the food is terrible,so bad even the drinks.Sorry but you guys need to serve things the way you promote and it's isn't cheap.

If there was a way to give this place more than 5 stars, I’d give it much more stars!The food was prepared and served with such care. I had the huancaina truffle pasta, chicha morada (a pitcher is highly recommended), the ceviche amar, and a pitaya margarita (perfectly made). There is a kid friendly option not listed on the menu. Please ask your server for the option offered.The huancaina truffle pasta had so much flavor and even though I was full, I couldn’t stop eating it. The chicken was cooked just right. The flavors were like a a beautiful waltz in my mouth. That’s as best as I can describe it…it was that good.The chicha morada, was beyond delicious! I should’ve gotten the pitcher but I was really busy with my pasta lol.The ceviche amar was so flavorful! The coconut milk that they add to it makes the entire thing just balanced and delicious. The flavors of a regular ceviche but with some extra flavor that gives a both refreshing taste and a slight lime punch at the same time.The pitaya margarita was mixed to perfection. As beautiful as it looked is just as good as it tasted. I highly recommend!!!Highly recommend this place! The atmosphere gives a relaxing, vacation type of vibe. The plants and decor are so thoughtfully laid out. It feels so welcoming and yet makes you feel like you’re on a trip somewhere.Overall, it was wonderful!

We eat here all the time. Honestly, the best quality food we have found in El Paso!Get Estella as your server. Service in here is somewhat bad, and she is the only one we have found that is actually really good.Fish tacos are great. You HAVE to get the avocado dream dessert!

I love this small restaurant, the ambiance was very elegant and beautiful. The food was fresh and delicious. Can't wait for summer to eat outside❤️, and have some drinks.
Food was exquisite! Every bite was an experience to savor. I’ve loved Peruvian food since I had it in Santa Fe years ago and I’m happy to see Amar in El Paso showcasing the country’s delicious flavors. The Lomo Saltado was perfection. My wife especially enjoyed the shrimp and cheese empanadas. We also enjoyed the tiramisu and torta de elote. We showed up a little after 5, not knowing we should have reserved seating, but were graciously and promptly seated. There was a slight mixup with the bill (twice) that I did have to make sure was corrected, but the manager made our night by sincerely apologizing and offering us shots of the most delicious tequila I’ve ever tasted. It was a great night with family and I would highly recommend this restaurant!

Okay Okay slow and usually have to ask for silverware and water Okay however uncomfortable
We were staying at the Hilton near the University and walked to this gem. I am a lover of the whole fried Peruvian fish which was fanatically seasoned and prepared. Our server was very friendly and I appreciated that they worked with my health needs and subbed certain items that I couldn't not eat. I highly recommend this cute little place.

The staff was great in explaining the food choices to me. Everything tasted ok. A bit on the pricey side and I expected more food or flash for the price

Food is outstanding! I applaud the owners for bringing cultural immersion to a land dotted with flautas and tacos. We need gastronomic diversity in EPTX.Make a reservation as the seating is limited.
It is not REAL PERUVIAN FOOD. They have Mexican food with some aspects of Peruvian style but is all Mexican food. Place is Beautifully decorated, but it is Not Peruvian Food. I have family that live in Peru and I know a lot of the dishes and this not even close to being Peruvian. Ambience 4 Service 3 Food 0
