You will LOVE the food at this Peruvian restaurant. Their chargrilled chicken is likely the best in the area. You'll enjoy just about everything on their menu. Arroz chaufa (fried rice with chicken), their plantains, green beans and rice w/black beans are menu favorites. And their green sauce is a MUST!
