What customers say?

“ This is definitely a great restaurant for lunch. Being called a bar gives us English speaking people the wrong impression. We managed to get a table at 3pm just after the peak lunch rush. They gave us a table from where we could see our bikes, which gave us an extra sense of security. Being on the coast we wanted to have seafood and their menu didn’t disappoint. They had an online version in multiple languages that helped with the ordering . We had anchovies, razor clamps, octopus and roasted sardines. They were all really tasty. The rice pudding was a super sweet way to end the lunch. The staff were very helpful and attentive. We didn’t have to wait long for the food to come to the table. Overall, a great lunch experience. ”

“ Peruvian food there is amazing (the spanish one also). A couple of chefs from are the restaurant are Peruvian and they went back to Peru specifically to master the ceviche. Go there and try the ceviche, the lomo saltado o the “tres leches” cake. Nothing to envy to any big city peruvian restaurants. The spanish food is also great and with reasonable prices. Try it! ”

“ The food was really good! We took the gambas, pulpo, artichokes, mixed salad and ribs. Everything was well seasoned. The hose vine is very good! We did not feel too welcome with the service, maybe because of the language barrier. Anyway, would recommend. ”
