    Delicious and friendly! Stopped in on an early Saturday evening for dinner and had a lovely meal. Started with beef empanadas that were superb. Also enjoyed sipping on a Peruvian corn/pineapple beverage. My main course was the beef saltado, which was perfectly cooked and again delicious. My boyfriend had a seafood mixed rice dish that he was mostly pleased with (some of the bites were a bit tough, he said). The owner waited on us and was very welcoming, friendly and encouraged questions about the cuisine. I would definitely enjoy returning for another meal!

    My lunch was one of the best meals I’ve had in the area. I normally buy the chicken with sides to go and it is always good. Today I was greeted by Eduardo who asked me what I wanted and I told him whatever he liked today I would have. So I had the Seco Carne with pickled onions, beans and rice. It was fabulous, fork tender meat that was seasoned and braised perfectly. It is worth the trip to Dorsey Hall in Ellicott City from wherever you are in the area. So happy to see a small independent restaurant that offers great food and service. Bravo to Eduardo and his team!

    Amazing service. My friends and I got free cookies & yuca fries on the house. The chicha morada drink changed my life 🤩

    It was amazing, I had half chicken with 2 sides, was perfectly marinated. IT IS HALAL!! I wasn't expecting a Peruvian place to have halal option. So thank you for more meat options. I would definitely recommend this place. All over experience 10/10 👏🏼 kudos
