Food was great. Almost everything on the menu was gluten free which was amazing. The place is very nice inside, but we were sat in a dark area which was a little hard to see. Also a little hard to hear each other talk from the noise of other people seating close to us. Service was decent.

The food was borderline good to very good. The ceviche, anticohos, and lomo were very good. The jalea was mostly fried calamari and had very little fish and shrimp. the huaicaina sauce was mediocre and could use improvement. The pisco sours were good but could use more pisco. The service was great and the ambience in the back is comfortable and not too loud. I recommend this place overall.
