Went here for dinner with my boyfriend on a Friday night. I was a bit worried because an unusually high number of reviews on both Google and Yelp mention instances of food poisoning (!). However, my boyfriend swears by this place and eats here regularly. My verdict? I think this is the place to go if you stick to the classics (any of the chicken dishes) and don't go too far off the beaten path. When we arrived around a 7 PM, the place wasn't too busy, but by the time we left, it was packed! Even with those eyebrow-raising reviews, this is a popular spot in the neighborhood - another data point for those of you who like to read the menu and lots of reviews first. Service is great - they are very attentive and friendly! The ambience is also nice. Lots of tables indoors, bar seating, and they have a nice new-looking backyard- perfect for sipping some pisco sours on a hot afternoon. We both ordered the 1/4 chicken + 2 sides. At $17 + tax/tip, this is a good deal with big portion size - I had to get a box to take home about half of it. I would say that while the chicken is very soft and melts in your mouth, it's not as seasoned as I expected. They include chips and a green sauce as a starter - that sauce really goes well with the chicken. Their plantain and yellow rice sides also both hit. Overall, this is a solid place with the caveats I mentioned above.

Finally got to try this place! I had the half chicken with fries and the calamari to start. The chicken was tender and juicy, full of flavor. The calamari was also pretty good. I was surprised at how large the portions were considering their prices. Definitely great value. The mango juice was also really good. Would come back here again.

The ambiance was chill here, relatively empty but the servers were very nice as was the owner. It's a tad on the expensive side for what you get, or I should say the servings are a bit small - the aji de gallina I finished in about 4 bites but had good flavor; same with the lomo saltado, it was very good but had limited beef in it. The aji de gallina empanadas are really tasty and cooked to perfection. Lastly, the ceviches are delicious, some a bit pricey but for the most part solid and lots of variety which is nice. The juices are from concentrate and not fresh. Overall it was pretty good and I'd consider coming back if the serving sizes increased a bit to reflect the price you're paying.

Came here for a casual meal on the weekend around 2p. Not many people in the restaurant so we did not have to wait. The server was super sweet and helped us understand the menu. The ambience was nice as it wasn't too crowded, but also was a well-decorated space (we went around halloween time). I ordered ceviche, which I always do whenever a restaurant has them, it was good overall, loved the lemon sauce, didn't blow me away but it was something I would get again. The chicken platter (forgot the actual name) was really good though! The chicken was really flavorful and so were the potato slices. Overall would definitely come again!
