Second time at Amaru and the food never disappoints. Even though our drinks came in way after our appetizers arrived, we enjoyed our time there. The sweet plantains were delicious and had to order them twice because they are the best botana. We ordered as well the branzino and the lomo boliviano which were pretty good. Definitely worth the wait.

Completely ruined my birthday! Everyone who had reservations were all behind and they just couldn’t get their scheduling together…I only had a party of 2 and we ended up waiting an hour.

It’s obvious everyone works as a team. We talked to several people and all of them couldn’t be more helpful or friendly. Our server, Carlos, was outstanding. We had the “market” ceviche, which I don’t believe is on the menu all the time, and it was fantastic!

We walked by the restaurant twice without realizing it was the restaurant. When you walk inside, it’s very difficult to see and many people were using their phones to read the menu. The food is excellent, a tad rushed, but it would be nice if one could see it.
