    Incredibly delicious Peruvian dishes. Meat is well marinated and very tender. Great flavour presentation. Very welcoming and friendly host.

    Delicious traditional Peruvian food in London. The ceviche and lomo saltado are must orders - incredible flavours. The couple who own the place are also so lovely and hospitable. Dining here alllllmost feels like being in LatAm or queens NY. Highly recommend

    This place is absolutely amazing. The staff, the food, everything. My recommendations yuca frita, ceviche, chicha and lomo saltado. Can’t wait to visit the restaurant again

    Food was good and authentic. Portions could have been bigger. The Arroz con Pollo was spectacular. Beef and chicken dishes are better here. Ernesto the head water is a real character and a cracker! We will definitely be coming back. Recommended!

    This is what a mom & pop Peruvian restaurant looks and taste like. We were in town from the states and wanted to eat Peruvian food on July 28. Stopped in and was blown away, the lomo saltado was all world good in flavor. The seco was slamming. But the traditional ceviche was as authentic as it gets. Stop in if you want actual Peruvian food.

    An authentic and humble Peruvian restaurant with very welcoming and attentive staff. The menu has a good variety of dishes including traditional creole, fish and street food options. We recommend the tamales, ceviche de pescado, anticuchos and lomo saltado. We will be back to try the rest of the menu! As a Peruvian I can say this is as authentic as it gets in London.

    Parking difficult and ceviche not very good. Service fantastic so would still go back. Arroz con pollo and ice cream of Lucuma was excellent! I would not recommend fish dishes here

    Amazing authentic food and experience! Enjoyed every dish. I've never ebeen to Peru, but I imagine this is what the local restaurant in a remote village would be like. The host was extremely friendly. Please give this a go! So many few family restaurants like this left in London!

    Absolutely incredible food served by such friendly staff. Went with a group of friends who have travelled in Peru and they agreed that the food was genuinely authentic and absolutely delicious. Definitely get the ceviche, it was so fresh, flavorful and perfectly balanced. Try the beef hearts as a starter, they were unexpectedly amazing and tender. I will rave about this place to anyone who will listen. It doesn't look much from the outside but it's definitely worth a visit.

    Situated off the main road in elephant in castle by the tube station, this place doesn't look like much from the outside. I would have walked past it many times without noticing it, wedged in between some corner shops. But good lord am I glad my friend recommended it to me. The people running this place are lovely. The servers (who I think we're the owners), we're pleasant, jovial and attended to us quickly. The food was divine. Lime infused fish, with an assortment of sides including salads, corn, and what I think were plantain chips (crisps). Lots of spice. Lots of flavour. Reminded me a lot of Thai food with a balance of sweet, sour and spice! Worth a visit, send then some love!

    Food is great. A really nice approach to original and traditional Peruvian food. Restaurant is cozy and the owners are the ones serving. Enjoyed the service and the food and would definitely go back

    This place serves such incredible food! The chef is friendly, and the place feels cheerful and exciting. The portions are solid, prices reasonable, and flavours are intense and beautifully balanced. I'll be back!

    #BrownPandaLikes Fantastic authentic experience of Peruvian cuisine in London. Everything was fresh and delicious. The hosts were lovely and very friendly. I had Papa a la Huancaina and Anticuchos to start with and then Ceviche de Pescado, which was just a piece of art. I asked for extra hot but can be also requested for mild. They also had this green chilli sauce, which was to die for if you love spicy food like I do. I also had Chicha Morada to drink and it was so refreshing! And to finish I tried the Lùcuma Ice Cream (Helado) which was quite interesting. Would definitely return.

    Amazing and authentic Peruvian food restaurant. I can only imagine this is as authentic as it comes with regards to Peruvian food in the UK. Delicious food and polite service. As a UK native who loves to try different cultural cuisines, this place really hit the spot. I will happily return to continue my adventure through the menu. Try the seafood Ceviche, you won't regret it (sadly forgot to take a picture of it as I was too busy eating and enjoying it).

    Terrific food. Exceptional quality. Good, friendly service. The owner, Ernesto, was helpful and his recommendations were spot on. This is a a high quality/low price restaurant. Simple food, well cooked and seasoned. Value for money. Highly recommended. One minute from Elephant tube. I will be back. .

    I am from Perú 🇵🇪 and I was looking for a Peruvian restaurant. This is a nice place, the menu is quite diverse, you can find different dishes, drinks and even typical desserts from Peru. I’m sure they are not using the same ingredients that we have in Peru but the quality in taste and seasoning is acceptable.

  • 5/5 AllSmiles M. 1 year ago on Google
    First time visiting this restaurant. We were greeted warmly by the staff. Ernesto was a very kind man he recommended the Peruvian speciality and I must say we enjoyed it to the full. The food was really tasty and we left with a full belly. Good value for money. Ernesto has a great sense of humour, we had some good laughs with him. Thank you for making our visit special. We will come back again to try their other famous seafood dish Ceviche.

    Delicious food, great staff and great prices! We’re South Americans living in London and can never find good and affordable Peruvian food- this was like getting a home cooked meal 🙌

  • 5/5 Gianluca S. 3 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    There aren’t many Peruvian restaurants around my area. I was so glad I came here! This was honestly one of the best restaurant experiences I had in a very long time. I left nothing on the plate. The food was amazing, and the staff were super friendly and welcoming. Definitely will come back! 😋
