Great food and service! I particularly enjoyed the chicha morada, a unique non alcoholic drink that is not on the menu, and some soup they brought us for free. Great vegetarian menu, as well as many meet options.

Great restaurant and experience although on the pricy side! Interior music and dining atmosphere was nice and casual. Awesome empanadas, and lomo Saltado. Server was clearly new hire but was attentive and great service. Server provided us a complimentary soup with our order which was also exceptional. Parking is tricky especially in the rough neighborhood of Oakland where your car is never safe.

We ordered Lomo Saltado and Ceviche and a couple Peruvian cocktails - pisco oriented. The food was good, but it's not fancy. The cocktails were great. Service was super friendly, allowing me to test my bad Spanish. Everything was very clean, and the bar had some Peruvian music going. I toured the club room in the back - very cool space there! Will be back on a weekend when it's going on. Glad this business had held on through thick and thin.

We loved the ceviche -comes with crispy corn kernels, so yucca, and is so flavorful (not too spicy). The drinks are great, the decor is well thought out, they bring out this delicious broth as an appetizer with bread (I don't eat gluten, but I love the broth!). LIVE LATIN MUSIC on Friday nights! We get to eat and take little breaks to dance between tables in between. Service is good, no complaints!

I always walk by here and finally decided to give it a try , and man was I glad I did. I came in at 3pm on a Saturday, expecting it to be busy but it was completely empty. The employee quickly greeted me, and provided me with a menu when I told her I would be ordering takeout. They conveniently have two menus one vegetarian menu and one regular menu. I'd seen plenty of reviews on the anticuchos, aka the beef heart skewers, and I thought I would live a little and give it a try. I also ordered the lomo saltado, which is thinly cut steak served with vegetables rice and French fries. While I was waiting for my food, I could not help but appreciate the interior of this restaurant. This place is designed exceptionally well. This would be a perfect atmosphere for a lunch/dinner date or to meet friends. I was utterly amazed at the interior and ambiance of this restaurant. The food was prepared in about 10 minutes, and the entire time I could smell the delicious and mesmerizing aromas coming from the kitchen. I regretted getting my food to go because those savory scents made me want to dig into the food as soon as it came out. Once I finally got enjoy the food, my only two regrets were: 1. Why didn't I order more menu items ? 2. Why haven't I tried this place earlier? The anticuchos was marinated and cooked to perfection. Beef heart is not something you see on a menu often and a lot of places that serve it tend to overcook it which causes it to be overly tough and chewy. You only get one skewer for this order, but there is a good amount of beef on that one skewer. This dish is served with sliced potatoes that added a nice textural balance to the dish. The sauce they serve it with is a bit spicy, so test it out first before bathing your food in it. The anticuchos is probably not for everyone, as beef heart has a slight iron like taste to it that some people might not like if they are not accustomed to it. The lomo saltado was pretty tasty, however I thought there was far too much rice and not enough steak and vegetables compared to most places I've gotten this dish in the past. The rice was your typical white rice, nothing special. But the beef and vegetables were seasoned nicely and cooked to perfection. Price wise, this restaurant is not cheap but not overly expensive. For the two dishes I got, it came out to around $42 not including gratuity. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes Peruvian food and/or is looking for a place with a nice ambiance to enjoy a meal alone, a dare, or friends/family. I will definitely be returning and checking out some of their other menu items.

Following our Dodgers to SF for the weekend we stayed in Oakland. We were getting back into the area of our hotel a little late and this restaurant was open and fairly busy. The service was good, and from what I could see the drinks looked good. We didn't get into the drink menu since we were pretty hungry. I ordered the Arroz con Marisco and my wife ordered the Lomo Saltado. The marisco dish was delicious, plenty of seafood, tasty, and a nice portion. The Lomo Saltado had so much flavor. The sauce, the onions, the steak and the papas, all delicious. It's pretty obvious we were sharing both dishes. Definitely a place if you like Peruvian food or if you've never had it a nice spot to try it out. Again, service was very good. Not only was our server paying plenty of attention the bartender even stopped by a couple of times to see how we were doing. Nice Oakland surprise.
