The best South American food I've ever had! I ordered 1/2 a rotisserie chicken, an a la carte piece of fried fish, and fried sweet plantains. Everything was absolutely delicious. The 'Aji Verde' sauce on the side was the perfect condiment, with a creamy texture and a delicious, subtle kick of spice. The rotisserie chicken was unlike a standard lemon pepper or garlic preparation, it had a far more complex and savory flavor profile. I specifically came here in search of halal options and was very pleased to find that both the chicken and the fish were halal. The whole meal was less than $50 and more than enough to share. This is a family-run restaurant, and from the moment you walk in, you can feel the love. I was fortunate enough to have Leo as my host, whose father, Ernesto, owns the res

Nice place to grab a quick bite while exploring the beach. We ordered plantains with 1/4 rotisserie chicken and pinto beans. Meal was delicious and hearty! Couldn’t ask for anything better. If you’re on the beach and you want something more homemade and hearty I would give this place a try.

The lomo saltado changed my life. It was so delicious, even the white rice. It's a little pricey but the food is good so can't complain. Servers are very nice too.

Food was very flavorful. The 1 thing I would do next time, asked for the chicken to be cooked a few min more or asked for more done piece. But nevertheless, even the galic rice was tasty... I will go again b4 my Vaca is over.

I was walking up and down the beach line looking for something to eat, something that offered vegetarian food. I stumbled across this restaurant and was not disappointed. It is such a cozy spot... the food that Oscar & Elvia in the kitchen cooked was delicious and filled with amazing flavor... thankyou to Jarol for being a great and kind server! Your guys Peruvian 🇵🇪 restraunt is great! If I ever come back to Venice, this will be the place I come to..
