dawn.in.newyorkJune 5, 2016Great local family style restaurant in the area. Food portion is very huge, and they have white and red sangria options. My favorite dish was Jalea Mixta, fried seafood!
Norah LNovember 21, 2014Legit best Peruvian food ever. Their ceviche is a must. The specialties are all fantastic. I've been coming here for many years and it's always reliable, reasonably priced and delicious.

Joury YounesApril 17, 2017Oh wow! The food is amazing. The two of us ordered ceviche mixto, lomo saltado, and pescado a lo macho. It's a lot of food for two people, but definitely worth it. Will order desert right now :D
Alèxia SoléJuly 14, 2015Good homemade Peruvian food. Everything was good, but I specially recommend the Ceviches. The size of the dishes is huge, just so you know. The only problem: they were a little slow serving.
Raj RamaniJanuary 4, 2017The ceviche plate is amazing. Also portions are large and well made. Great value for money and it is no surprise they are that busy. Good service too.
Anel KovacSeptember 11, 2015Delicious food and huge portions. Service is just ok. Luckily they don't automatically include the tip like most of the places at South Beach. All in all great value for money.- Beth CericolaMarch 2, 2018Start with the ceviche and then get that fried shrimp--heaven! Sangria is bomb, too.
- Rob DwyerOctober 3, 2013The Ceviche was absolutely amazing. Far and away the best I have ever eaten. Will definately go back again when I find myself back in Miami.
Landry HaarmannJune 27, 2013Enormous $5 sangrias! lomo saltado is so damn good. My first Peruvian food experience happened here! I am now a big fan of Peruvian food.
Jonathan MooreSeptember 2, 2014First time having Peruvian food and the pescado mixto was fantastic!! Seafood extravaganza and lots of flavor. Wish it came with more rice. Poor service though.
- 24 Hour Food GeekApril 1, 2013Try the Pescado Con Mariscos - A seafood combination if fish, mussels, squid, octopus, and shrimp in a special mushroom seafood sauce
Huge gratifying portions. Come here AFTER you're done at the beach because you'll want to finish it all!
Gabriela ProvenzanoOctober 3, 2013Great Food! And great Service! We love to lunch there! Thank you very much!
- Great food. Huge portions. Green sauce with bread is good but spicy! Definitely recommend this place. Get the ceviche and the lomo saltado!
Christine WangJune 9, 2013We ordered everything that was recommended on yelp: the lomo saltado, pescado macho, and the cerviche mixto and were so happy!
Andy FlammFebruary 17, 2014Great Peruvian food and friendly service. This was my favorite restaurant experience in South Beach.
Samantha 💃 LopezOctober 11, 2015Fresh fish and calamari are delicious in every dish. The ceviche is unreal 🐙🐙🐙
VallyriJanuary 21, 2016It gets busy, food is moderately priced for its location. Parking is a bitch. And the coconut flan is prepackaged.
Dominika JurickovicovaMarch 6, 2014Its amazing here! Portions so big! A girl cant eat it all anyway. But everything so yummmy!
Jack HartzmanJuly 13, 2014The food is awesome. Best ceviche this side of Lima. Limo Saltdo is great too.
Isidoro PosadasFebruary 23, 2014All the food are fresh, the mussels, ceviche and all dishes prepared to perfection...
David FragaFebruary 17, 2014Doesn't look like much but this place has AMAZING seafood. Get the Pescado con Mariscos.
Nadide GülJanuary 11, 2019The food was tasty, but definitely it was pre-prepared and heated. The service was friendly.
Carl DirksJune 29, 2015We ordered fried fish, paella and pescado Mariscopa. Big portions, nice people.
Ray KirkMarch 21, 2013Food was great but took my too long to get our food! But I will try it again cause the food is worth it
Simone BaldiAugust 21, 2014They have many fantastic seafood plates but the close at 10:00pm too early for Miami..
Stefanie SmolskiAugust 23, 2010Ceviche is so good! Seafood dishes are fresh and lomo saltado is great!
Efrain LaboyMay 31, 2014Avoid this place! They don't make their own chicha morada and fail to properly season their food. Saw the high ratings but I'm extremely disappointed.
